Jarid2 is required for the genomic recruitment of the polycomb repressive complex-2 (PRC2) in embryonic stem cells. However, its specific role during late development and adult tissues remains largely uncharacterized. ...
La llegada del sonido 3D está imponiendo cambios en varias etapas del flujo de trabajo, desde los sistemas de captación hasta las metodologías de postproducción y las configuraciones de altavoces. Esta tesis trata varios ...
This thesis has been accomplished in Crisalix in collaboration with the Universitat Pompeu Fabra within the program of Doctorats Industrials. Crisalix has the mission of enhancing the communication between professionals ...
In this thesis a method was developed to reconstruct both the 3D shape and the BMD distribution of bone structures from Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) images. The method incorporates a statistical model built from ...
Osteoporosis is the most common bone disease, with a significant morbidity and mortality caused by the increase of bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture. Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard ...
In this Thesis we report the successful growth of hormone responsive T47D cells as 3D spheroids in Matrigel mimicking the ECM. A detailed characterization by using a genome-wide approach of the main physical and biochemical ...
The process by which the diversity of neurons making up the brain are produced relies on precise adjustments across space and time. Proneural genes are main drivers of neurogenesis across the different areas of the brain ...
Estudios clínicos y epidemiológicos muestran que la comorbilidad, la coexistencia de varias enfermedades en un mismo paciente, tiene un gran impacto en la evolución de su estado de salud. Por lo tanto, el análisis de ...
To date, very little progress has been made towards elucidating the genetic causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In this project we have performed rare variant association study (RVAS) transcriptomics and ...
The evolutionary history of the human genome has been shaped by the selection of multiple elements in response to different environmental pressures. The analysis of regulatory adaptations and the particularities of sexual ...
In recent years, zero-knowledge proofs have come to play a crucial role in distributed systems where there is no trust between the parties involved. Most popular proof systems are for the NP-complete language of arithmetic ...
Aquesta dissertació tracta del ritme musical. Més exactamente, tracta de programes informàtics que extreuen automàticament descripcions rítmiques a partir de senyals musicals d'àudio.<br/>Presentem nous algorismes per a ...
This dissertation proposes a computational data-driven methodology to measure music ensemble interdependence - the degree to which musicians interact and influence each other’s actions in order to achieve a shared goal - ...
Durant la darrera dècada la seqüenciació massiva de pacients de cancer ha permés avançar de forma significativa el coneixement sobre les bases moleculars del càncer. Un cop assolit aquest primer pass, el repte que tenim ...
In IEEE 802.11 WLANs, Link Adaptation mechanisms, which choose the transmission rate of each node, provoke unexpected and random variations on the effective channel capacity. When these changes are towards lower bitrates, ...
In this dissertation we examine the sphere of the English verbs of speaking (VoS) with 2 components: the manner of speaking component (MoSC) and the component of non-standard speech (CoNS), and their translations from ...
This dissertation is an exploration of discourses representing the political life, death, and continued presence of Marielle Franco following her assassination on 14 March 2018. Marielle Franco was a councilwoman in the ...
The specification of the vertebrate limb skeleton is a classical model to study pattern formation during development. Two different theories have been proposed to explain this process: the Turing mechanism and the ...
Lsm proteins regulate RNA metabolism and are conserved in the three domains of life, typically functioning as RNA-binding complexes involved in a wide range of post-transcriptional mechanisms. Generally, their functions ...
During reprogramming of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), the epigenome needs to be reset. A prime example of this is the reversal of the silent state of the inactive X chromosome in female cells, ...
