Increased functional connectivity of the intraparietal sulcus underlies the attenuation of numerosity estimations for self-generated words

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Jevita Potheegadoo, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Giedre Stripeikyte

Previous studies have shown that self-generated stimuli in auditory, visual, and somatosensory domains are attenuated, producing decreased behavioral and neural responses compared to the same stimuli that are externally generated. Yet, whether such attenua ...

Technologizing Democracy or Democratizing Technology? A Layered-Architecture Perspective on Potentials and Challenges

Bryan Alexander Ford

While technology is often claimed to be “democratizing”, the technologizing of society has more often yielded undemocratic or even anti-democratic outcomes. Is technology fundamentally at odds with democracy, or is it merely a rich and infinitely-adaptable ...

Liminality, Ephemerality, and Marginality with Impact Makerspaces in the Chinese Urban Fabric: Shanghai, Shenzhen, Beijing, and Addis Ababa

Monique Stéphanie Bolli

In the last few years, narratives and imaginaries about maker cultures as well as makerspaces have been flourishing in Chinese cities. With its fast-changing pace, the global maker movement expresses unique features in China and integrates aspects of grass ...

Glutamine-to-glutamate ratio in the nucleus accumbens predicts effort-based motivated performance in humans

Rolf Gruetter, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Lijing Xin, Gediminas Luksys, Alina Veronika Irene Strasser

Substantial evidence implicates the nucleus accumbens in motivated performance, but very little is known about the neurochemical underpinnings of individual differences in motivation. Here, we applied 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) at ultra-hi ...

Lancet: A self-correcting Latency Measuring Tool

Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias

We present LANCET, a self-correcting tool designed to measure the open-loop tail latency of µs-scale datacenter applications with high fan-in connection patterns. LANCET is self-correcting as it relies on online statistical tests to determine situations in ...

Self-imaging of Azimuthal Intensity Petal Based on Orbital Angular Momentum Beams

Camille Sophie Brès, Jianqi Hu

We demonstrate for the first time azimuthal Talbot effect based on orbital angular momentum beams. The intensity petal is self-imaged in the azimuthal angle. We also draw the analogy between azimuthal and temporal Talbot effect. ...

In vivo reprogramming of non-mammary cells to an epithelial cell fate is independent of amphiregulin signaling

Cathrin Brisken, Stéphanie Cagnet

AREG-/- mice demonstrate impaired mammary development and form only rudimentary ductal epithelial trees, however, AREG-/- glands are still capable of undergoing alveologenesis and lactogenesis during pregnancy. Transplantation of AREG-/- mammary epithelial ...

"Self pop-out": agency enhances self-recognition in visual search

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Oliver Alan Kannape, Joan Llobera Mahy

In real-life situations, we are often required to recognize our own movements among movements originating from other people. In social situations, these movements are often correlated (for example, when dancing or walking with others) adding considerable d ...

Full body illusion is associated with widespread skin temperature reduction

Olaf Blanke, Roger Gassert, Roy Salomon, Christian Pfeiffer

A central feature of our consciousness is the experience of the self as a unified entity residing in a physical body, termed bodily self-consciousness. This phenomenon includes aspects such as the sense of owning a body (also known as body ownership) and h ...

Self-sensing of linear short-stroke actuators for multi-finger haptic interfaces using induced high frequency oscillations

Yves Perriard, Grégory Savioz

With the aim of providing a new touch sensation to the user, the design of innovative multi-finger haptic devices passes through the research for efficient and low-cost methods for position sensing. This paper thus addresses a novel self-sensing method for ...

Comparing the neural bases of self-referential processing in typically developing and 22q11.2 adolescents

Roy Salomon, Maude Schneider

The investigation of self-reflective processing during adolescence is relevant, as this period is characterized by deep reorganization of the self-concept. It may be the case that an atypical development of brain regions underlying self-reflective processi ...

Barcoding Human Physical Activity to Assess Chronic Pain Conditions

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu

Background: Modern theories define chronic pain as a multidimensional experience - the result of complex interplay between physiological and psychological factors with significant impact on patients' physical, emotional and social functioning. The developm ...

Routes to Novel Colloidal Gels

Francesco Varrato

The thesis describes how demixing of binary colloidal mixtures could be used to design new kinds of amorphous structures. We show that a rich phase behavior emerges, dependent on density (colloidal concentration) and composition (species relative populatio ...

Substrate Elasticity Regulates Skeletal Muscle Stem Cell Self-Renewal in Culture

Matthias Lütolf, Nora Leonardi

Freshly isolated muscle stem cells (MuSCs) exhibit robust regenerative capacity in vivo that is rapidly lost in culture. Using a bioengineered substrate to recapitulate key biophysical and biochemical niche features in conjunction with a novel highly autom ...

Multisensory mechanisms underlying bodily self-consciousness

Recent philosophical and neuroscientific theories converge on the assumption that the basic foundations of self-consciousness lie in those brain systems that represent the body. Neurological cases in which this basic bodily self-consciousness is disturbed ...

Comparison of mean flow similarity laws in zero pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers

Peter Monkewitz

The paper presents an in depth assessment of different similarity laws for the mean velocity profile in zero pressure gradient (ZPG) turbulent boundary layers (TBL's) in comparison with mostly experimental and few computational data. The emphasis is on the ...

Stem cells of stratified epithelia : a generic stem cell?

Squamous stratified epithelia tissues are self-renewing, which quality implies the existence of stem cells. In skin the presence of bona fide multipotent stem cells has been demonstrated by long-term, serial grafting assays. We isolated, cultivated and exp ...
