Technological Ecosystems that Support People with Disabilities: Multiple Case Studies
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02-25)
Advances in technology, research development, and teaching practices have brought improvements in the training, levels of autonomy, and quality of life of people who need support and resources appropriate to their circumstances ...
Elastic and Thermoreversible Iongels by Supramolecular PVA/Phenol Interactions
(Wiley, 2020-06-28)
Iongels have attracted much attention over the years as ion-conducting soft materials for applications in several technologies including stimuli-responsive drug release and flexible (bio)electronics. Nowadays, iongels with ...
(r)HDL in theranostics: how do we apply HDL's biology for precision medicine in atherosclerosis management?
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-05-07)
High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are key players in cholesterol metabolism homeostasis since they are responsible for transporting excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver. Imbalance in this process, due to ...
Cholesterol stimulates the lytic activity of Adenylate Cyclase Toxin on lipid membranes by promoting toxin oligomerization and formation of pores with a greater effective size
(Wiley, 2021-12)
Several toxins acting on animal cells present different, but specific, interactions with cholesterol. Bordetella pertussis infects the human respiratory tract and causes whooping cough, a highly contagious and resurgent ...

Effective Position Control for a Three-Phase Motor
(MDPI, 2020-02-01)
This document presents an efficient proportional derivative (PD) position controller for three-phase motor drives. The regulator has been designed in frequency domain, employing the direct–quadrature (<i>d</i>&ndas ...
National Deadlock. Hot Nationalism, Dual Identities and Catalan Independence (2008–2019)
(MDPI, 2020-01-30)
The article explores the transformations of Spanish and Catalan national identities and the growth of the pro-independence movement in Catalonia following the 2008 global recession. It argues that the Great Recession ...
Influence of Anion Structure on Thermal, Mechanical and CO2 Solubility Properties of UV-Cross-Linked Poly(ethylene glycol) Diacrylate Iongels
(MDPI, 2020-03-17)
Iongel-based CO2 separation membranes were prepared by fast (< 1 min) UV-initiated polymerization of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) in the presence of different ionic liquids (ILs) with the [C2mim]+ cation and ...
Noise Sensitivities for an Atom Shuttled by a Moving Optical Lattice via Shortcuts to Adiabaticity
(MDPI, 2020-02-25)
We find the noise sensitivities (i.e., the quadratic terms of the energy with respect to the perturbation of the noise) of a particle shuttled by an optical lattice that moves according to a shortcut-to-adiabaticity transport ...
The role of SUMOylation during development
(Portland Press, 2020-04)
During the development of multicellular organisms, transcriptional regulation plays an important role in the control of cell growth, differentiation and morphogenesis. SUMOylation is a reversible post-translational process ...
