Inhibition of SRC-mediated integrin signaling in bone marrow niche enhances hematopoietic stem cell function

Interaction with microenvironmental factors is crucial for the regulation of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function. Stroma derived factor (SDF)-1 alpha supports HSCs in the quiescent state and is central to the homing of transplanted HSCs. Here, we show t ...

Image- and Fluorescence-Based Test Shows Oxidant-Dependent Damages in Red Blood Cells and Enables Screening of Potential Protective Molecules

Gerardo Turcatti, Michel Prudent, Benjamin Rappaz, Manon Sandra Bardyn, David Crettaz

An increase of oxygen saturation within blood bags and metabolic dysregulation occur during storage of red blood cells (RBCs). It leads to the gradual exhaustion of RBC antioxidant protective system and, consequently, to a deleterious state of oxidative st ...

Structured light generation by refractive-diffractive micro optical array illuminators

Maryam Yousefi

Structured light generation having broad applications in different optical fields, is the topic of this thesis. Our structured light generation strategy is based on applying periodic microoptical elements at the refraction-diffraction limit, under a focuse ...

Modelling the Intracellular Environment under Uncertainty, from Post-translational Modification to Metabolic Networks

Robin Alexander Denhardt-Eriksson

Modelling and analysis of biological systems is crucial in order to quantitatively explain and predict their behaviour. The importance of modelling in systems biology becomes even more evident when tackling complex, large systems. Approaches that rely on ...

ON WAVEFRONT ABERRATIONS IN ASYMMETRIC AND MULTIPLE APERTURE OPTICAL SYSTEMS

Alessandro Grosso

The present work deals with monochromatic wavefront aberrations in optical systems without symmetries. The treatment begins with a class of systems characterized by misaligned spherical surfaces whose behavior is analyzed using the wavefront aberration exp ...

Ultrasound Imaging: From Physical Modeling to Deep Learning

Dimitris Perdios

Among the medical imaging modalities, ultrasound (US) imaging is one of the safest, most widespread, and least expensive method used in medical diagnosis. In the past decades, several technological advances enabled the advent of ultrafast US imaging, an ac ...

Self-Attentive Spatial Adaptive Normalization for Cross-Modality Domain Adaptation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Manana Lortkipanidze, Guillaume Marc Georges Vray, Seyedbehzad Bozorgtabar, Devavrat Tomar

Despite the successes of deep neural networks on many challenging vision tasks, they often fail to generalize to new test domains that are not distributed identically to the training data. The domain adaptation becomes more challenging for cross-modality m ...

Phase calibration of a basic bright-field microscope for 3D metrology of transparent samples at the nanoscale

Martinus Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi, Bingying Zhao

Optical retrieval of the structure of transparent objects at the nano-scale requires adapted methods capable of probing their interaction with suitable light. Scattering events, for instance, depend on the content and the arrangement of the medium encounte ...

Open-access quantitative MRI data of the spinal cord and reproducibility across participants, sites and manufacturers

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Christian Büchel, Nawal Noëlle Kinany, Maryam Seif, Maxime Descoteaux

In a companion paper by Cohen-Adad et al. we introduce the spine generic quantitative MRI protocol that provides valuable metrics for assessing spinal cord macrostructural and microstructural integrity. This protocol was used to acquire a single subject da ...

Measurement of the inner structure of turbidity currents by ultrasound velocity profiling

Giovanni De Cesare, Shun Nomura, Jumpei Hitomi

The inner velocity structure and particle concentration profile of opaque turbidity currents were mea- sured simultaneously by ultrasound velocity profilers. Currents consisting of a quartz particle suspension were generated by using the lock-exchange meth ...

Structured light engineering using a photonic nanojet

Toralf Scharf, Maryam Yousefi, Daniel Necesal

In this Letter, we present the photonic nanojet as a phenomenon in a structured light generator system that is implemented to modify the source focal spot size and emission angle. The optical system comprises a microlens array that is illuminated by a focu ...
