Architecture for integrated RF photonic downconversion of electronic signals

Electronic analog to digital converters (ADCs) are run-ning up against the well-known bit depth versus bandwidth trade off. Towards this end, radio frequency (RF) photonic-enhanced ADCs have been the subject of interest for some time. Optical frequency com ...

LPA1 receptor and chronic stress: Effects on behaviour and the genes involved in the hippocampal excitatory/inhibitory balance

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Alexandre Claude Gustave Bacq, Roman Moreno Fernandez

The LPA1 receptor, one of the six characterized G protein-coupled receptors (LPA1–6) through which lysophosphatidic acid acts, is likely involved in promoting normal emotional behaviours. Current data suggest that the LPA-LPA1-receptor pathway may be invol ...

Performance Contracts for Software Network Functions

George Candea, Solal Vincenzo Pirelli, Rishabh Ramesh Iyer, Aikaterini Argyraki, Arseniy Zaostrovnykh, Luis David Figueiredo Mascarenhas Moreira Pedrosa

Software network functions (NFs), or middleboxes, promise flexibility and easy deployment of network services but face the serious challenge of unexpected performance behaviour. We propose the notion of a performance contract, a construct formulated in ter ...

A real-time platform for studying the modulatory capacity of epidural stimulation after spinal cord injury

Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Pavel Musienko, Nikolaus Wenger, Jérôme Gandar

Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) showed promises to improve standing and walking after neurological disorders. To date, EES has been delivered continuously, although time-dependent stimulations would likely be more efficient to activate specific subse ...
