The design of smart biomaterial devices plays a key role to improve the way conventional therapies are being delivered, and to promote the development of new approaches for advanced therapies, such as regenerative medicine ...
Alonso López, Joan Francesc (Date of defense: 2011-09-29)
Most biological systems are complex and consist of several interconnected parts whose links can contain additional information which can be hidden from the observer. As a result of the interactions between elements, emergent ...
Barba Serrahima, Albert (Date of defense: 2018-11-28)
The development of synthetic bone substitutes with enhanced osteogenic properties is urged by the global ageing population. Sintered calcium-phosphate (CaP) ceramics are the most widely used synthetic biomaterials for bone ...
Morgenstern de Muller, Christian Rudolf (Date of defense: 2010-02-25)
La estimación del esfuerzo respiratorio durante el sueño es de una importancia crítica para la identificación correcta de eventos respiratorios en los trastornos respiratorios del sueño (TRS), el diagnóstico correcto de ...
Álvarez Pinto, Zaida (Date of defense: 2014-07-25)
Stroke and traumatic brain injuries are common causes of disability, with loss of nerve tissue due to secondary degeneration, gliosis, and often the formation of cavities that inhibit neural cell growth. Recent attempts ...
Santos Ruiz, Ildeberto de los (Date of defense: 2021-06-11)
(English) This thesis presents a methodology to locate leaks in pipeline networks, with a focus on water distribution networks. Leak localization techniques using classifiers are proposed by associating the different classes ...
Fernández Albert, Francesc (Date of defense: 2014-10-30)
Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS) instruments are widely used in Metabolomics. To analyse their output, it is necessary to use computational tools and algorithms to extract meaningful biological information. ...
González-Vélez, Virginia (Date of defense: 2011-07-26)
Exocytosis is the cellular process whereby a product such as a hormone or a neurotransmitter is released as a response to stimulation. There are a lot of exocytotic cells in mammals, and each cell type has their specific ...
Vento, Jorge (Date of defense: 2014-06-20)
Hybrid systems play an important role in the modeling of complex systems since they take into account the interaction between both continuous dynamics and discrete events. Complex systems are subject to changes in the ...
Alférez Baquero, Edwin Santiago (Date of defense: 2015-06-26)
Morphological analysis is the starting point for the diagnostic approach of more than 80% of the hematological diseases. However, the morphological differentiation among different types of abnormal lymphoid cells in ...
