Nasir Faruk, N.T. Surajudeen-Bakinde, Abubakar Abdulkarim, Abdulkarim Oloyede, Lukman Olawoyin, Olayiwola Bello, Segun Popoola, Thierry Edoh
Jul 01, 2020
Access to quality healthcare is a major problem in Sub-Saharan Africa with a doctor-to-patient ratio as high as 1:50,000, which is far above the recommended ratio by the World Health Organization (WHO) which is 1:600. This has...

Recent advances in the biomimicry of structural colours.
Nature has mastered the construction of nanostructures with well-defined macroscopic effects and purposes. Structural colouration is a visible consequence of the particular patterning of a reflecting surface with regular...
Fingering instabilities in tissue invasion
Metastatic tumours often invade healthy neighbouring tissues by forming multicellular finger-like protrusions emerging from the cancer mass. To understand the mechanical context behind this phenomenon, we here develop a...
The 7th IMA international conference on quantitative modelling in the management of health and social care
Health and social care systems are facing major challenges worldwide, due in part to changes in demography and advances in technology and in part to changes in the structure and organisation of care delivery. The IMA Health 2013...
A scalable dynamic parking allocation framework
Cities suffer from high traffic congestion of which one of the main causes is the unorganized pursuit for available parking. Apart from traffic congestion, the blind search for a parking slot causes financial and...

The parking allocation problem for connected vehicles
In this paper, we propose a parking allocation model that takes into account the basic constraints and objectives of a problem where parking lots are assigned to vehicles. We assume vehicles are connected and can exchange...

Spectral Gap Critical Exponent for Glauber Dynamics of Hierarchical Spin Models
Abstract: We develop a renormalisation group approach to deriving the asymptotics of the spectral gap of the generator of Glauber type dynamics of spin systems with strong correlations (at and near a critical point). In our...
Log‐Sobolev Inequality for the Continuum Sine‐Gordon Model
We derive a multiscale generalisation of the Bakry‐Émery criterion for a measure to satisfy a log‐Sobolev inequality. Our criterion relies on the control of an associated PDE well‐known in renormalisation theory: the Polchinski...
Biometric Authentication Methods on Mobile Platforms
In this work, the authors propose a new biometric authentication system on mobile devices, enhancing security at these terminals and preserving user privacy. The proposed system uses a method of extracting strong features from...

A magnetically actuated, optically sensed tensile testing method for mechanical characterization of soft biological tissues.
Mechanical properties of soft biological tissues play a critical role in physiology and disease, affecting cell behavior and fate decisions and contributing to tissue development, maintenance, and repair. Limitations of existing...

Digital Humanities and Natural Language Processing
In spite of the increasingly large textual datasets humanities researchers are confronted with, and the need for automatic tools to extract information from them, we observe a lack of communication and diverging goals between...
Switchmate! An Electrophysiological Attempt to Adjudicate Between Competing Accounts of Adjective-Noun Code-Switching.
Awel Vaughan-Evans, Maria Carmen Parafita Couto, Bastien Boutonnet, Noriko Hoshino, Peredur Webb-Davies, Margaret Deuchar, Guillaume Thierry
Dec 01, 2020
Here, we used event-related potentials to test the predictions of two prominent accounts of code-switching in bilinguals: The Matrix Language Framework (MLF; Myers-Scotton, 1993) and an application of the Minimalist Programme...
High fragmentation characterizes tumour-derived circulating DNA.
Florent Mouliere, Bruno Robert, Erika Arnau Peyrotte, Maguy Del Rio, Marc Ychou, Franck Molina, Celine Gongora, Alain R Thierry
May 01, 2019
BACKGROUND: Circulating DNA (ctDNA) is acknowledged as a potential diagnostic tool for various cancers including colorectal cancer, especially when considering the detection of mutations. Certainly due to lack of normalization...
KATANIN-dependent mechanical properties of the stigmatic cell wall mediate the pollen tube path in Arabidopsis.
Lucie Riglet, Frédérique Rozier, Chie Kodera, Simone Bovio, Julien Sechet, Isabelle Fobis-Loisy, Thierry Gaude
Oct 19, 2020
Successful fertilization in angiosperms depends on the proper trajectory of pollen tubes through the pistil tissues to reach the ovules. Pollen tubes first grow within the cell wall of the papilla cells, applying pressure to the...

Thierry Frebourg, Svetlana Bajalica Lagercrantz, Carla Oliveira, Rita Magenheim, D Gareth Evans, European Reference Network GENTURIS
May 26, 2021
Fifty years after the recognition of the Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), our perception of cancers related to germline alterations of TP53 has drastically changed: (i) germline TP53 alterations are often identified among children...

Jan 14, 2021
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are undesired effects of medicines that can harm patients and are a significant source of attrition in drug development. ADRs are anticipated by routinely screening drugs against secondary...
