Rojas-Cervellera, Víctor (Date of defense: 2015-07-17)
Thiolate monolayer-protected gold clusters (AuMPCs) are being used in various biological and biomedical applications due to their unique physical and chemical properties. The fact that gold-sulphur bonds are very stable ...
Cabeza de Vaca López, Israel (Date of defense: 2015-12-16)
This thesis is focused on the study of molecular interactions at the atomistic detail and is divided into one introductory chapter and four chapters referencing different problems and methodological approaches. All of them ...
Dornelles, Leonardo dalla Porta (Date of defense: 2022-10-07)
The brain, a natural adaptive system, can generate a rich dynamic repertoire of spontaneous activity even in the absence of stimulation. The spatiotemporal pattern of this spontaneous activity is determined by the brain ...
Monza, Emanuele (Date of defense: 2016-12-19)
Metalloprotein are proteins containing metal ion cofactors. Compared to chemical catalysts, metalloproteins have a well-defined configuration around the active site which ensures higher specificity, selectivity and reaction ...
Barardi, Alessandro (Date of defense: 2016-06-03)
The brain is a complex multiscale dynamical system made of neurons, connected with each other by synapses. Neurons are multidimensional nonlinear systems able to exhibit dynamical activities at different temporal and spatial ...
Malagarriga i Guasch, Daniel (Date of defense: 2017-01-13)
The aim of this thesis is to deepen into the understanding of the mechanisms responsible for the generation of complex and stochastic dynamics, as well as emerging phenomena, in the human brain. We study typical features ...
