A Computational Approach for the Design of Epidural Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation Strategies to Enable Locomotion after Spinal Cord Injury

Emanuele Formento

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of paralysis with currently no effective treatment. Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord has been shown to restore locomotion in animal models of SCI, but has not yet reached the same lev ...

Spatial dependence of genetic data related to human health and livestock disease resistance: a role for geography to support the One Health approach

Stéphane Joost

The spatial dependence of located health and/or genetic data can be used to detect clusters likely to reveal disease prevalence or signatures of adaptation associated with characteristics of the local environment (high temperatures, air or water pollution) ...

Adult human perception of distress in the cries of bonobo, chimpanzee, and human infants

Understanding the extent to which humans perceive the emotional state of animals has both theoretical and practical implications. While recent studies indicate that natural selection has led to some convergence of emotion coding among vertebrate species (i ...

Aesthetic Space : The Visible and the Invisible in Urban Agency

Mirza Tursic

Recent 'turns' in social sciences, namely the visual, qualitative, actorial or spatial turns, all indicate a rising interest in individuals. Since the aesthetic dimension always nourishes and informs individualsâ spatialities and their decision-making pr ...

Glucose Homeostasis: Regulation by Peripheral Circadian Clocks in Rodents and Humans

Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon

Most organisms, including humans, have developed an intrinsic system of circadian oscillators, allowing the anticipation of events related to the rotation of Earth around its own axis. The mammalian circadian timing system orchestrates nearly all aspects o ...

Transposable Elements and Their KRAB-ZFP Controllers Regulate Gene Expression in Adult Tissues

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Gabriela Ecco, Julien Léonard Duc, Marco Cassano, Annamaria Kauzlaric, Andrea Coluccio, Michaël Imbeault, Helen Mary Rowe

KRAB-containing zinc finger proteins (KRAB-ZFPs) are early embryonic controllers of transposable elements (TEs), which they repress with their cofactor KAP1 through histone and DNA methylation, a process thought to result in irreversible silencing. Using a ...

Red squirrels in the British Isles are infected with leprosy bacilli

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso, Jérémie Piton, Chloé Marie Loiseau

Leprosy, caused by infection with Mycobacterium leprae or the recently discovered Mycobacterium lepromatosis, was once endemic in humans in the British Isles. Red squirrels in Great Britain (Sciurus vulgaris) have increasingly been observed with leprosy-li ...

Reinforcement learning: the effect of environment

Michael Herzog, He Xu

Reinforcement learning is a type of supervised learning, where reward is sparse and delayed. For example in chess, a series of moves is made until a sparse reward (win, loss) is issued, which makes it impossible to evaluate the value of a single move. Stil ...
