During the last decade, genomics have been widely used to the characterization of the molecular basis of common diseases. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been highly successful in characterizing the genetic ...
During the last decades, research focused on the preparation of highly selective and smart materials has increased considerably. For instances, it has been possible to achieve intelligent drug nano-carriers, biomolecular ...
After a lesion in the CNS, glial cells play a fundamental role, being the mediators of both the inhibitory and the beneficial response for neural regeneration. The tissue engineering approach consists in the use of ...
The global incidence of bone fractures, and subsequently that of non-healing ones, is expected to rise in the coming decades, mostly due to an increased risk of age-related conditions. Currently, the biomaterials field is ...
The thesis falls into the field of machine olfaction and accompanying experimental set up for chemical gas sensing. Perhaps more than any other sensory modality, chemical sensing faces with major technical and conceptual ...
El objetivo principal de la tesis es estudiar los patrones respiratorios de pacientes en proceso de extubación y pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca crónica (CHF), a partirde la señal de flujo respiratorio. La información ...
The main objective of the present Doctoral Thesis is to obtain new quantitative features by means of digital image processing and machine learning for the differentiation of normal, reactive and malignant lymphoid cells ...
(English) This thesis aims to explore cardiac cell physiology across various scales, also known as translational cardiology. The research employs novel computational techniques from Biomedical engineering and utilizes ...
El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar la viabilidad de utilizar, en la práctica clínica, métodos de medida mínimamente invasivos y no invasivos para contribuir al diagnóstico del infarto de miocardio y del rechazo de ...
Este proyecto se propone caracterizar y optimizar superficies biofuncionalizadas con diferentes secuencias peptídicas, para lograr la regeneración ósea (oseointegración) y por ende la disminución de los problemas de ...
Organ shortage for transplantation and the need for new therapies for the treatment of tissular damages have driven the development of an exciting field in research, called tissue engineering (TE). Its potential entails ...
Aquesta Tesi que pretén proporcionar un conjunt de tècniques per enfrontar-se al problema que suposa la variació del color en les imatges preses des d'una plataforma mòbil per causa del canvi en les condicions d'il·luminació ...
The information about how, when, and where are produced the proteins has been one of the major challenge in molecular biology. The studies about the control of the gene expression are essential in order to have a better ...
Parkinson’s disease (PD). It is characterized by brief episodes of inability to step, or by extremely short steps that typically occur on gait initiation or on turning while walking. The consequences of FOG are aggravated ...
This thesis can be summarized in the following sentence: All scientific models, for instance structural atlases of brain MRI, can be read in terms of fuzzy extensional sets. The work done in this doctoral thesis backs up ...
En aquesta tesi s'han realitzat una sèrie d'experiments per tal de cercar, identificar, caracteritzar i comparar diversos mètodes d'obtenció de vistes d'objectes reals per aplicacions interactives de realitat augmentada, ...
The following dissertation presents the contributions of the author in the field of human movement analysis and, specifically, in Parkinson's disease. Recent technologies have allowed developing reduced inertial sensors ...
The effective disinfection in chlorination tanks of drinking water treatment plants depends on many factors that must be taken into account when designing a suitable control system. The chemical characteristics of the water ...
This thesis presents sorne contributions to the field of Health-Aware Control (HAC) of dynamic systems. In the first part of this thesis, a review of the concepts and methodologies related to reliability versus degradation ...
This thesis is framed within the field of red biotechnology and more specifically in the development of bioprocesses for cell species that feature some therapeutical interest, either for the production of vaccines and ...
