Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Planarization and Water Vapor Barrier Coatings on Cellulose Nanofibrils Substrates

Yves Leterrier, Feyza Karasu Kiliç

Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) can be produced in the form of thin, transparent and flexible films. However, the permeability of such materials to oxygen and water vapor is very sensitive to moisture, which limits their potential for a variety of packaging an ...

A microfluidic platform for automated phenotyping during full lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans at high-throughput

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Johan Auwerx, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Hüseyin Baris Atakan

We present a multiplexed and automated microfluidic platform for phenotyping of C. elegans during their full lifespan and at high-throughput. We used the fluorescent hsp-6::gfp strain of worms and performed experiments to observe the effect of four differe ...

Social rules govern vocal competition in the barn owl

Christof Faller

To resolve the share of limited resources, animals often compete through exchange of signals about their relative motivation to compete. When two competitors are similarly motivated, the resolution of conflicts may be achieved in the course of an interacti ...

Redefining the metabolic landscape through TGF-beta/Activin signaling in Drosophila melanogaster

Wen Bin Chng

Multicellular organisms assess their nutritional state and adapt their metabolic landscape to match their energy demands. In this thesis, we address a longstanding conundrum of how an organism coordinates digestive enzyme expression in response to its nutr ...
