Innovative Tools and in vivo Methods for Tuberculosis Drug Discovery and Development

Raphael Christopher Sommer

Worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death due to a single infectious agent, claiming 1.6 million human lives and causing >10 million new cases in 2017 alone, mostly in low-income regions. The intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculos ...

A novel biomechanical approach for animal behaviour recognition using accelerometers

Kamiar Aminian, Pritish Chakravarty

Data from animal-borne inertial sensors are widely used to investigate several aspects of an animal's life, such as energy expenditure, daily activity patterns and behaviour. Accelerometer data used in conjunction with machine learning algorithms have b ...

A generalised framework for detailed classification of swimming paths inside the Morris Water Maze

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

The Morris Water Maze is commonly used in behavioural neuroscience for the study of spatial learning with rodents. Over the years, various methods of analysing rodent data collected during this task have been proposed. These methods span from classical per ...

Active apolar doping determines routes to colloidal clusters and gels

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Collections of interacting active particles, self-propelling or not, have shown remarkable phenomena including the emergence of dynamic patterns across different length scales, from animal groups to vibrated grains, microtubules, bacteria, and chemicalor f ...

Social network plasticity decreases disease transmission in a eusocial insect

Laurent Keller, Alessandro Crespi, Nathalie Isabelle Karine Anne Stroeymeyt

Animal social networks are shaped by multiple selection pressures, including the need to ensure efficient communication and functioning while simultaneously limiting disease transmission. Social animals could potentially further reduce epidemic risk by alt ...

Novel probes for the non-invasive bioluminescence imaging of mitochondrial membrane potential and dipeptidylpeptidase-4 activity in living animals

Arkadiy Bazhin

Current thesis summarizes the work on development of novel bioluminescent probes for measurement of activity of dipeptidylpep-tidase-4 (DPP-4) and for quantification of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). DPP-4 enzyme plays critical role in develop-men ...

Designing a socially integrated mobile robot for ethological research

Francesco Mondada, Alexey Gribovskiy, Jean-Louis Deneubourg

A robot introduced into an animal group, accepted by the animals as conspecifics, and capable of interacting with them is an ecient tool for ethological research, particularly in studies of collective and social behaviour. In this paper, we present the imp ...

Analysis of antibiotic multi-resistant bacteria and resistance genes in the effluent of an intensive shrimp farm (Long An, Vietnam)

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Pierre Rossi

In Vietnam, intensive shrimp farms heavily rely on a wide variety of antibiotics (ABs) to treat animals or prevent disease outbreak. Potential for the emergence of multi-resistant bacteria is high, with the concomitant contamination of adjacent natural aqu ...

Stress-Induced Depression: Is Social Rank a Predictive Risk Factor?

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Thomas Didier Larrieu

An intriguing question in the field of stress is what makes an individual more likely to be susceptible or resilient to stress‐induced depression. Predisposition to stress susceptibility is believed to be influenced by genetic factors and early adversity. ...

A WebGIS platform for the monitoring of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (GENMON)

Stéphane Joost, Giona Matasci, Solange Catherine Gaillard, Ivo Widmer

Background In 2007, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) initiated the Global plan of action for Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR). The main goal of this plan is to reduce further loss of genetic diversity in farm animals, ...
