Real-time Personalized Monitoring of Neurological Disorders on Wearable Systems

Renato Zanetti

The terminology of neurological disorders encompasses a range of serious illnesses (e.g., epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease) leading to morbidity, disability, and stigma. Epilepsy alone affects over 50 million people worldwide, and these figures are rising as ...

Housing, street and health: a new systemic research framework

Paola Viganò, Stéphane Joost, Dusan Licina, Idris Guessous, Derek Pierre Christie, Anna Pagani, Valentin Daniel Maurice Bourdon, Mathias Lerch, Catarina Wall Gago

As the world’s population grows in cities, urban dwellers spend a large amount of time inside their home, making housing health ever more important. Critical for residents’ health, the interactions between indoor residential environments and outdoor enviro ...

High spatial resolution dataset of La Mobiliere insurance customers

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Emanuele Massaro

We present the La Mobiliere insurance customers dataset: a 12-year-long longitudinal collection of data on policies of customers of the Swiss insurance company La Mobiliere. To preserve the privacy of La Mobiliere customers, we propose the data aggregated ...

Association of neighbourhood disadvantage and individual socioeconomic position with all-cause mortality: a longitudinal multicohort analysis

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous

Background Few studies have examined the interactions between individual socioeconomic position and neighbourhood deprivation and the findings so far are heterogeneous. Using a large sample of diverse cohorts, we investigated the interaction effect of neig ...

Hydrodynamic flow and concentration gradients in the gut enhance neutral bacterial diversity

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

The gut microbiota features important genetic diversity, and the specific spatial features of the gut may shape evolution within this environment. We investigate the fixation probability of neutral bacterial mutants within a minimal model of the gut that i ...

Unravelling the mechanism of ultrafast photoinduced charge generation in organic and hybrid photovoltaic systems

George Cameron Fish

At the current time, the world as we know it is at a crossroads; there is an urgent need to lower greenhouse gas emissions to limit the global rise in temperature. However, this is at odds with the increasing energy demands of the world's growing populatio ...

The SNP-Based Profiling of Montecristo Feral Goat Populations Reveals a History of Isolation, Bottlenecks, and the Effects of Management

Elia Vajana

The Montecristo wild goat is an endangered feral population that has been on the homonymous island in the Tuscan Archipelago since ancient times. The origins of Montecristo goats are still debated, with authors dating their introduction either back to Neol ...

The effects of time-restricted eating and weight loss on bone metabolism and health: a 6-month randomized controlled trial

Nicholas Edward Phillips

Objective This study explored the impact of time-restricted eating (TRE) versus standard dietary advice (SDA) on bone health. Methods Adults with >= 1 component of metabolic syndrome were randomized to TRE (ad libitum eating within 12 hours) or SDA (food p ...

A high-resolution HLA reference panel capturing global population diversity enables multi-ancestry fine-mapping in HIV host response

Jacques Fellay

A high-resolution reference panel based on whole-genome sequencing data enables accurate imputation of HLA alleles across diverse populations and fine-mapping of HLA association signals for HIV-1 host response. ...

The association of basic and challenging motor capacity with mobility performance and falls in young seniors

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu

Background: Understanding the association between motor capacity (MC) (what people can do in a standardized environment), mobility performance (MP) (what people actually do in real-life) and falls is important for early detection of and counteracting on fu ...

Exciton and Carrier Dynamics in Two-Dimensional Perovskites

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Etienne Christophe Socie, Andrés Burgos Caminal, Marine Eva Fedora Bouduban

Two-dimensional Ruddlesden−Popper hybrid lead halide perovskites have become a major topic in perovskite optoelectronics. Here, we aim to unravel the ultrafast dynamics governing the evolution of charge carriers and excitons in these materials. Using a com ...

Seascape Genomics of the Sugar Kelp Saccharina latissima along the North Eastern Atlantic Latitudinal Gradient

Chloé Christiane Laurence Jollivet

Temperature is one of the most important range-limiting factors for many seaweeds. Driven by the recent climatic changes, rapid northward shifts of species' distribution ranges can potentially modify the phylogeographic signature of Last Glacial Maximum. W ...

On the relation between transversal and longitudinal scaling in cities

João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

Does the scaling relationship between population sizes of cities with urban metrics like economic output and infrastructure (transversal scaling) mirror the evolution of individual cities in time (longitudinal scaling)? The answer to this question has impo ...

Limits on amplifiers of natural selection under death-Birth updating

Andreas Pavlogiannis

The fixation probability of a single mutant invading a population of residents is among the most widely-studied quantities in evolutionary dynamics. Amplifiers of natural selection are population structures that increase the fixation probability of advanta ...

On Smart-Buildings and their Integration into the Smart-Grid

Olivier Valentin Henri Van Cutsem

Today's electrical grid is undergoing deep changes, resulting from the large integration of distributed Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in an effort to decarbonize the generation of electrical energy. In addition to the emergence of this volatile electricit ...

Population structure determines the tradeoff between fixation probability and fixation time

Andreas Pavlogiannis

The rate of biological evolution depends on the fixation probability and on the fixation time of new mutants. Intensive research has focused on identifying population structures that augment the fixation probability of advantageous mutants. But these ampli ...

Mitochondrial haplotypes affect metabolic phenotypes in the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel

Johan Auwerx, Bart Deplancke, Adamantia Kapopoulou, Maria Litovchenko, Brian Dennis Hollis, Roel Paulus Josephus Bevers, Virginie Sandra Braman

The nature and extent of mitochondrial DNA variation in a population and how it affects traits is poorly understood. Here we resequence the mitochondrial genomes of 169 Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel lines, identifying 231 variants that stratify along ...

High performance computation of landscape genomic models including local indicators of spatial association

Stéphane Joost, Sylvie Stucki, Solange Catherine Gaillard

With the increasing availability of both molecular and topo-climatic data, the main challenges facing landscape genomics — i.e. the combination of landscape ecology with population genomics — include processing large numbers of models and distinguishing be ...

In vivo evaluation of a novel 'diastole-patching' algorithm for the estimation of pulse transit time: advancing the precision in pulse wave velocity measurement

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Orestis Vardoulis

Carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the gold standard for the assessment of aortic stiffness. It is calculated by the ratio of pulse transit time (PTT) between two arterial sites and the distance between them. The precision of PTT estimation de ...
