(ACS, 2022-06-01)Iongels are soft ionic conducting materials, usually comprised of polymer networks swollen with ionic liquids (ILs), which are being investigated for applications ranging from energy to bioelectronics. The employment of ... -
Gender bias in ecosystem restoration: from science to practice
(Restoration Ecology, 2022-01-01)The declaration of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration 2020–2030 has established the need to focus on human rights in restoration initiatives, including gender equality. Although this goal raises a need to ... -
Gene editing and disabled people: a response to Felicity Boardman
(Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature, 2020-03-27)Is the germline gene editing (GEE) of embryos with disabling conditions a moral obligation? According to a recent editorial by F. Broadmann, there are strong reasons to hold the opposite, since “ such a focus on the benefit ... -
Generating Triple Crystalline Superstructures in Melt Miscible PEO-b-PCL-b-PLLA Triblock Terpolymers by Controlling Thermal History and Sequential Crystallization
(WILEY-VCH, 2019-09-10)The morphology, crystallization behavior and properties of multi-crystalline polymer systems based on triple crystalline biodegradable PEO-b-PCL-b-PLLA triblock terpolymers are reviewed. The triblock terpolymers, with ... -
Genetic and phenotypic spectrum associated with IFIH1 gain‐of‐function
(Wiley, 2020-01)IFIH1 gain-of-function has been reported as a cause of a type I interferonopathy encompassing a spectrum of autoinflammatory phenotypes including Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome and Singleton Merten syndrome. Ascertaining ... -
Genome of Pesxtera Muierii skull shows high diversity and low mutational load in pre-glacial Europe
(Elsevier, 2021-07-26)Few complete human genomes from the European Early Upper Palaeolithic (EUP) have been sequenced. Using novel sampling and DNA extraction approaches, we sequenced the genome of a woman from "Pesxtera Muierii,"Romania who ... -
Genome-wide association analysis of dementia and its clinical endophenotypes reveal novel loci associated with Alzheimer's disease and three causality networks: The GR@ACE project
(Elsevier Science INC, 2019-10)Introduction: Large variability among Alzheimer's disease (AD) cases might impact genetic discoveries and complicate dissection of underlying biological pathways. Methods: Genome Research at Fundacio ACE (GR@ACE) is a ... -
Genomic transformation and social organization during the Copper Age-Bronze Age transition in southern Iberia
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-11)[EN]The emerging Bronze Age (BA) of southeastern Iberia saw marked social changes. Late Copper Age (CA) settlements were abandoned in favor of hilltop sites, and collective graves were largely replaced by single or double ... -
