Differential regulation of RNA polymerase III genes during liver regeneration

Olivier Martin, Bart Deplancke, Felix Naef, Jacques Rougemont, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Marion Leleu, Fabrice David, Winship Herr, Mauro Delorenzi, Kyle Gustafson, Dominic Villeneuve, Cristian Carmeli, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Nouria Hernandez, Laura Symul, Irina Krier, Julien Delafontaine, Philippe Jacquet, Julia Catharina Cajan, Maykel Lopes, Ioannis Xenarios, François Mange

Mouse liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy involves cells in the remaining tissue synchronously entering the cell division cycle. We have used this system and H3K4me3, Pol II and Pol III profiling to characterize adaptations in Pol III transcriptio ...

A Sustainable Approach to Produce Stiff, Super-Tough, and Heat-Resistant Poly(lactic acid)-Based Green Materials

Nicolas Candau, Oguzhan Oguz, Mehmet Kerem Citak, Fatma Nalan Cetin

Circumventing inherent embrittlement, poor heat resistance, and melt elasticity of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) without compromising its remarkable stiffness and strength has become a particular challenge in polymer science due to increasing demand for green ma ...

Managerial challenges of co-creation and social innovation: the case of Dokk1

Gianluigi Viscusi

Innovation in the public sector is the only possible response to fine-tune welfare services to new and changing demands and overcome policy impasses (Halmos et al., 2019; Misuraca & Colombo, 2016; Misuraca & Viscusi, 2015). According to a growing evidence, ...

Unsupervised algorithm for disaggregating low-sampling-rate electricity consumption of households

Christophe Ballif, Lionel Benjamin Bloch, Jordan Holweger, Marina Dorokhova

Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) has been extensively researched over the last decade. The objective of NILM is to identify the power consumption of individual appliances and to detect when particular devices are on or off from measuring the power cons ...

A demand-based optimization approach to find market equilibria in oligopolies

Michel Bierlaire, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Stefano Bortolomiol

Oligopolistic competition occurs when a small number of operators compete for the same pool of customers. This is often the case in transportation, due to reasons such as external regulations, economies of scale and limited capacity of the infrastructure. ...

From quantum spin chains to square lattice Heisenberg anti-ferromagnets

Noore Elahi Shaik

This thesis presents a theoretical study of the Heisenberg model on a two dimensional lattice with asymmetric couplings along x and y directions. By gradually varying the coupling along y-direction we traverse the 1D, quasi 1D and 2D domains of this model. ...

Multi-Objective System-Level Management of Modern Green Data Centers

Ali Pahlevan

In our modern society, the average citizen has turned into a daily cloud user. Despite being virtually transparent for the user, internet services require data centers behind the scenes. Data centers burn several megawatts of power and their electricity bi ...

Real-time optimization of an experimental solid-oxide fuel-cell system

Dominique Bonvin, Jan Van Herle, Christophe Salzmann, Zacharie Wuillemin, Alejandro Gabriel Marchetti

There still exists a large gap between simulation work and industrial applications in the context of control and optimization of solid-oxide fuel-cell (SOFC) systems. In an effort to bridge this gap, this study describes the experimental implementation of ...

Using lakes and rivers for extraction and disposal of heat: Estimate of regional potentials

Alfred Johny Wüest, Adrien Gaudard, Martin Schmid

There is increasing interest in using waterbodies as renewable energy sources to heat and cool buildings and infrastructure. Here, we estimate the potentials for heat extraction and disposal for the main lakes and rivers of Switzerland based on acceptable ...
