Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction, are the leading cause of death worldwide for both men and women. Current therapies are limited by the restricted intrinsic regeneration capacity of the heart and by the lack of organs for transplant ...
The matrix completion problem consists of finding or approximating a low-rank matrix based on a few samples of this matrix. We propose a new algorithm for matrix completion that minimizes the least-square distance on the sampling set over the Riemannian ma ...
Lymphatic capillary drainage of interstitial fluid under both steady-state and inflammatory conditions is important for tissue fluid balance, cancer metastasis, and immunity. Lymphatic drainage function is critically coupled to the fluid mechanical propert ...
Engineered artificial microenvironments hold enormous potential as models to study developmental, physiological, pathological, and regenerative processes under highly defined conditions. Such platforms aim at bridging the gap between traditional in vitro 2 ...
The evaluation of colorimetric films for the detection of low concentrations of gaseous ammonia in a waveguide configuration is presented. They were composed of a pH indicator selective to NH3 embedded in a polymeric matrix and deposited on an optical wave ...
Placental growth factor (PlGF) is a critical mediator of blood vessel formation, yet mechanisms of its action and regulation are incompletely understood. Here we demonstrate that proteolytic processing regulates the biological activity of PlGF. Specificall ...
The giant unicellular macroalgae exhibit an extraordinary wound repair mechanism. The rapid assimilation of cellular contents into an insoluble wound plug prevents detrimental cytoplasmic loss and limits the intrusion of extracellular components which coul ...
This contribution is a summary of four lectures delivered by the first author at the CIME Summer school in June 2011 at Cetraro (Italy). Preparation of those lectures was greatly aided by the other authors of these lecture notes. Our goal is to present som ...
Fusion proteins containing a first domain and a second domain, where the first domain contains a crosslinkable substrate domain and the second domain contains a fibrinolysis inhibitor, are provided. In a preferred embodiment, the fibrinolysis inhibitor is ...
Cell organization into functional multicellular three-dimensional structures is a long-standing challenge. In particular, engineering of vascularized tissues requires both blood and lymphatic neovascular network formation in a simultaneous and coordinated ...
