(Wiley, 2014-05-13)
In many mammal species with sexual dimorphism producing sons is energetically more demanding to the mother than producing daughters. Although some studies in humans have suggested that offspring born after a brother have ...
A Machine Learning Approach to Perform Physical Activity Classification Using a Sensorized Crutch Tip
(IEEE, 2020-11-24)
[EN] In recent years, interest in monitoring Physical Activity (PA) has increased due to its positive effect on health. New technological devices have been proposed for this purpose, mainly focused on sports, which include ...
Altered nuclear export signal recognition as a driver of oncogenesis
(AACR, 2019-10-01)
Altered expression of XPO1, the main nuclear export receptor in eukaryotic cells, has been observed in cancer, and XPO1 has been a focus of anticancer drug development. However, mechanistic evidence for cancer-specific ...
