Behavioral outcome of very preterm children at 5 years of age: Prognostic utility of brain tissue volumes at term-equivalent-age, perinatal, and environmental factors

Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, Serafeim Loukas

ObjectivePrematurity is associated with a high risk of long-term behavioral problems. This study aimed to assess the prognostic utility of volumetric brain data at term-equivalent-age (TEA), clinical perinatal factors, and parental social economic risk in ...

Transcriptomic analysis reveals mitochondrial pathways associated with distinct adolescent behavioral phenotypes and stress response

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Dogukan Hazar Ülgen

Adolescent individuals exhibit great variability in cortical dynamics and behavioral outcomes. The developing adolescent brain is highly sensitive to social experiences and environmental insults, influencing how personality traits emerge. A distinct patter ...

Experimental behavior of iron-based shape memory alloys under cyclic loading histories

Dimitrios Lignos, Elyas Ghafoori, Masoud Motavalli, Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Alexander Riley Hartloper, Diego Isidoro Heredia Rosa

The present paper investigates the behavior of iron-based shape memory alloys (Fe-SMAs) subjected to cyclic inelastic straining by means of uniaxial coupon experiments. The tests feature round bar coupons subjected to a broad range of uniaxial cyclic strai ...

Exploring MEG brain fingerprints: Evaluation, pitfalls, and interpretations

Sélima Zahar, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Alessandra Griffa, Enrico Amico, Ekansh Sareen

Individual characterization of subjects based on their functional connectome (FC), termed “FC fingerprinting”, has become a highly sought-after goal in contemporary neuroscience research. Recent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have dem ...

How do users interact with Virtual Geographic Environments? Users' behavior evaluation in urban participatory planning

Jens Ingensand, Thibaud Nicolas Chassin

For the past twenty years, the adoption of Virtual Geographic Environments is thriving. This democratization is due to numerous new opportunities offered by this medium. However, in participatory urban planning these interactive 3D geovisualizations are st ...

Personalizable intervention systems to promote healthy behavior change

Igor Kulev

Adopting healthy behaviors can prevent the onset of many adverse health conditions. However, behavior changes are difficult to make, and often, people who like to improve their behaviors do not know how to do that. Personalizable intervention systems could ...

Determinants of pro-environmental behavior: A comparison of university students and staff from diverse faculties at a Swiss University

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Ralph Hansmann, Rafael Laurenti

In the context of an initiative to become a carbon neutral campus, an online survey (N = 1864) of students, scientists, and administrative and technical staff of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne) ...

Tapping into Multi-Faceted Human Behavior and Psychopathology Using fMRI Brain Dynamics

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Elenor Morgenroth

Human behavior comprises many aspects that stand out by their dynamic nature. To quantify its neural underpinnings, time-resolved fMRI methods have blossomed over the past decade. In this review we conceptually organize a broad repertoire of dynamic analyt ...

Painting by Numbers: Computational Methods and the History of Art

Leonardo Laurence Impett

This thesis presents a new methodology for computational art history, in the tradition of Distant Reading from literary criticism. This method is based on operationalisation, the transcription of a concept or theory from cultural history into an algorithm. ...

Motivating Innovation: The Effect of Loss Aversion on the Willingness to Persist

Kenneth Younge

We investigate the willingness of individuals to persist at exploration in the face of failure. Prior research suggests that the organization's "tolerance for failure" may motivate greater exploration by the individual. Little is known, however, about how ...

Brain functional connectivity dynamics at rest in the aftermath of affective and cognitive challenges

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Gwladys Rey

Carry-over effects on brain states have been reported following emotional and cognitive events, persisting even during subsequent rest. Here, we investigated such effects by identifying recurring co-activation patterns (CAPs) in neural networks at rest wit ...

Towards biomimetic behavior of an active deployable tensegrity structure

Nicolas Willy Veuve

Tensegrity structures have non-conventional structural properties since they require self-stress in order to be stable. When a tensegrity structure integrates sensors, actuators, (structural members able to change their length) and a control system, deploy ...

Improving Fatigue Evaluations of Structures Using In-Service Behavior Measurement Data

Ian Smith, James-Alexandre Goulet, Romain Pasquier, Claire Acevedo

Conservative models and code practices are usually employed for fatigue-damage predictions of existing structures. Direct in-service behavior measurements are able to provide more accurate estimations of remaining-fatigue-life predictions. However, these e ...

Creativity without critique: An inquiry into the aesthetization of alternative culture

Yves Pedrazzini, Luca Giovanni Pattaroni, Mischa-Sébastien Piraud, Letícia Cabeçadas Do Carmo

Based on a research in Lisbon, Geneva and Ljubljana, this paper aim to analyse the uses of the term “alternative” (along its formal and aesthetic registers) in order to tackle the question of the aesthetization of creativity, away from its critical dimensi ...

Role of the HPA axis in the long-term programming of social behaviors by peripuberty stress : behavioral, pharmacological and molecular approaches

Vandana Veenit

Stress during childhood and adolescence enhances the risk of psychopathology later in life. In fact, exposure to stress during this period is known to predispose individuals to the development of psychopathologies such as depression and anxiety disorders l ...

Increased corticosterone in peripubertal rats leads to long-lasting alterations in social exploration and aggression

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana, Stamatina Tzanoulinou, Vandana Veenit

Stress during childhood and adolescence enhances the risk of psychopathology later in life. We have previously shown that subjecting male rats to stress during the peripubertal period induces long-lasting effects on emotion and social behaviors. As cortico ...
