Neural Mechanisms that Control an Innate Foraging Behavior in Caenorhabditis Elegans
Alejandro Lopez-Cruz
Jan 01, 0001
The ability to efficiently locate food is critical for survival. Thus, animals modify their foraging patterns based on recent experience and current conditions to increase their likelihood of finding food. One highly conserved...

On the Interactions of Augmin with Microtubules and the Mechanics of the Cross-Linker PRC1
Alejandro Dottore
Jan 01, 0001
Cell division in eukaryotes requires the assembly and maintenance of a structure, the bipolar spindle, self-organized from microtubules and their associated proteins. A multitude of components have been identified to be involved...

Genetic diversity of Phytophthora infestans in the Northern Andean region.
Brain-to-Brain Coupling in the Gamma-Band as a Marker of Shared Intentionality
Cooperation and competition are two ways of social interaction keys to life in society. Recent EEG-based hyperscanning studies reveal that cooperative and competitive interactions induce an increase in interbrain coupling....
Joint recording of EEG and audio signals in hyperscanning and pseudo-hyperscanning experiments.
Hyperscanning is an emerging technique that allows for the study of brain similarities between interacting individuals. This methodology has powerful implications for understanding the neural basis of joint actions, such as...
Novel PLCG2 Mutation in a Patient With APLAID and Cutis Laxa.

Non-axisymmetric complete flow conditioning gauzes
Abstract: This paper presents a novel methodology for the design of a gauze that produces distributions of stagnation pressure, swirl angle, pitch angle and turbulence intensity, tailored in both the radial and circumferential...
Enhancing Preoperative Planning in Orthopedic Trauma Surgery Using a Presentation Software.
Preoperative planning (PP) is critical to ensure a successful outcome in orthopaedic trauma surgery. Since it was first described thirty years ago, no modifications have been made to the original preoperative planning (OPP)...
Data-Efficient Neural Network for Track Profile Modelling in Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing
Cold spray is emerging as an additive manufacturing technique, particularly advantageous when high production rate and large build sizes are in demand. To further accelerate technology’s industrial maturity, the problem of...
Lack of detectable neoantigen depletion signals in the untreated cancer genome.
Somatic mutations can result in the formation of neoantigens, immunogenic peptides that are presented on the tumor cell surface by HLA molecules. These mutations are expected to be under negative selection pressure, but the...

Carotenoid-dependent plumage coloration is associated with reduced male care in passerine birds
The immense diversity of plumage coloration exhibited by birds is the result of either pigments deposited in the feathers or microstructural arrangements of feather barbules. Some of the most common pigments are carotenoids...
Developmental Ultrasound Characteristics in Guinea Pigs
Alejandro A Candia, Tamara Jiménez, Álvaro Navarrete, Felipe Beñaldo, Pablo Silva, Claudio García-Herrera, Amanda N Sferruzzi-Perri, Bernardo J Krause, Alejandro González-Candia, Emilio A Herrera

Large Animal Studies to Reduce the Foreign Body Reaction in Brain–Computer Interfaces
Shan Yasin Mian, Jonathan Roy Honey, Alejandro Carnicer-Lombarte, Damiano Giuseppe Barone
Aug 17, 2021
Brain–computer interfaces (BCI) are reliant on the interface between electrodes and neurons to function. The foreign body reaction (FBR) that occurs in response to electrodes in the brain alters this interface and may pollute...
Foreign Body Reaction to Implanted Biomaterials and Its Impact in Nerve Neuroprosthetics
The implantation of any foreign material into the body leads to the development of an inflammatory and fibrotic process—the foreign body reaction (FBR). Upon implantation into a tissue, cells of the immune system become...
