La present tesis doctoral, presentada com a compendi de publicacions, té com a objectiu general l’estudi de la diversitat en l’espai químic i l’establiment de relacions amb l’espai biològic mitjançant l’ús de tècniques ...
La investigación se ha desarrollado en la región de Las Tablas, ubicada en el denominado Arco Seco de la República de Panamá. En esta región, el abastecimiento de agua potable, debido al aumento de la población, se ve ...
La aparición en la última década de Redes Sociales digitales y de su papel indispensable como plataformas de comunicación en el contexto global de las organizaciones, así como la transformación de públicos, espectadores ...
[spa] Los constantes avances de las tecnologías digitales han traído, como consecuencias, la necesidad de mejorar los conocimientos y habilidades de los docentes, en áreas relacionadas con lo disciplinar, pedagógico y ...
Esta tesis doctoral trata la exploración y modelización formal de patrones socioecológicos y tecnoculturales, así como de algunos de los hipotéticos mecanismos que los explicarían. Los patrones se postulan sobre dos tipos ...
Plasmodium vivax is the most geographically widespread human malaria parasite. Research on this parasite needs to be expanded in order to develop adequate tools for its control such as a highly effective vaccine. One ...
Malaria is arguably one of the main medical concerns worldwide because of the numbers of people affected, the severity of the disease and the complexity of the life cycle of its causative agent, the protist Plasmodium spp. ...
For over eighty years, adamantane ring has interested organic chemists for its simplicity and symmetry. The rigid tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane skeleton has provided a unique structural template for evaluating important ...
Our daily life event experiences fall into two general classifications: those that are remembered and those that are not. The act of remembering involves a perfect gearing of neurocognitive operations that begin with the ...
[eng] In this PhD Thesis, I examine the transformations of the Spanish food system from 1980 to the present, focusing on its socioeconomic structural changes and their impacts on sustainability and social equity. My research ...
The aim of this PhD thesis consists of the synergistic combination of both highly efficient synthetic approaches and molecular modelling tools for the structure-based drug design and synthesis of novel bioactive heterocyclic ...
[eng] In the context of an ageing and increasingly more independent learning population, a narrative inquiry into the life stories of highly motivated senior language users remains a promising yet relatively unexplored ...
This doctoral thesis is focused on disclosing molecular factors that regulate the functional mechanism of key targets in i) metabolic disorders, such as diabetes and obesity, and ii) tuberculosis (TB). These diseases have ...
[eng] Cancer is one of the most common diseases worldwide. Despite that a lot of time and resources have already been spent in this topic, there is still a long way to go to be able to cure every patient and improve their ...
Cosmology is the study of the origin and evolution of our Universe as a whole. Even if the theoretical framework of Cosmology was developed a century ago, with the formulation of General Relativity by Albert Einstein, it ...
Mitochondria are intracellular double-membrane bound organelles in eukaryotic cells that act as the major suppliers of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). They possess their own DNA (mtDNA) that codes for components of the ...
[eng] Plant biofactories constitute an eco-friendly alternative to chemical synthesis as they have a lower environmental impact and therefore contribute to a more sustainable future. Hairy root cultures, generated by ...
[eng] This thesis is mainly focused on studying the photophysical properties of Au(I), Ag(I), Cu(I), and Pt(II) coordinated compounds. This work can be divided into two parts: on the one hand, the compounds of the group ...
The TP53-Induced Glycolysis and Apoptosis Regulator (TIGAR) gene was described in 2006 by Dr. Karen Vousden's group in response to the induction of the tumour suppressor gene p53. Since then, numerous studies have focused ...
The transcription factor NR2E3 participates in photoreceptor cell fate determination as it functions as both transcriptional repressor of cone genes and activator of rod genes. Mutations in NR2E3 cause retinitis pigmentosa ...
