Special Issue “Olfaction: From Genes to Behavior”
(MDPI, 2020-06-15)
The senses dictate how the brain represents the environment, and this representation is the basis of how we act in the world [...]
Presenilin1 familial Alzheimer disease mutants inactivate EFNB1- and BDNF-dependent neuroprotection against excitotoxicity by affecting neuroprotective complexes of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor
(Oxfor University Press, 2020-07-20)
Excitotoxicity is thought to play key roles in brain neurodegeneration and stroke. Here we show that neuroprotection against excitotoxicity by trophic factors EFNB1 and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (called here factors) ...
Microfluidic chip with pillar array for controlled production and observation of lipid membrane nanotubes
(RSC, 2020-06-29)
Lipid membrane nanotubes (NTs) are a widespread template for in vitro studies of cellular processes happening at high membrane curvature. Traditionally NTs are manufactured one by one, using sophisticated membrane ...
Multiqubit and multilevel quantum reinforcement learning with quantum technologies
(Public Library Science, 2018-07-19)
We propose a protocol to perform quantum reinforcement learning with quantum technologies. At variance with recent results on quantum reinforcement learning with superconducting circuits, in our current protocol coherent ...
Quantum Simulation Of The Quantum Rabi Model In A Trapped Ion
(American Physical Society, 2018-04-30)
The quantum Rabi model, involving a two-level system and a bosonic field mode, is arguably the simplest and most fundamental model describing quantum light-matter interactions. Historically, due to the restricted parameter ...
Invited Article: Quantum Memristors in Quantum Photonics
(American Institute Of Physics, 2018-08)
We propose a method to build quantum memristors in quantum photonic platforms. We first design an effective beam splitter, which is tunable in real time, by means of a Mach-Zehnder-type array with two equal 50:50 beam ...
Quantum Artificial Life in an IBM Quantum Computer
(Nature Publishing, 2018-10-04)
We present the first experimental realization of a quantum artificial life algorithm in a quantum computer. The quantum biomimetic protocol encodes tailored quantum behaviors belonging to living systems, namely, self-replication, ...
Quantum Memristors With Superconducting Circuits
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-02-14)
Memristors are resistive elements retaining information of their past dynamics. They have garnered substantial interest due to their potential for representing a paradigm change in electronics, information processing and ...
Entanglement of superconducting qubits via acceleration radiation
(Nature Publishing, 2017-04-06)
We show that simulated relativistic motion can generate entanglement between artificial atoms and protect them from spontaneous emission. We consider a pair of superconducting qubits coupled to a resonator mode, where the ...
Nucleation and Crystallization of PA6 Composites Prepared by T-RTM: Effects of Carbon and Glass Fiber Loading
(MDPI, 2019-10-14)
Thermoplastic resin transfer molding (T-RTM) is attracting much attention due to the need for recyclable alternatives to thermoset materials. In this work, we have prepared polyamide-6 (PA6) and PA6/fiber composites by ...
