Understanding safety-critical interactions with a home medical device through Distributed Cognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
As healthcare shifts from the hospital to the home, it is becoming increasingly important to understand how patients interact with home medical devices, to inform the safe and patient-friendly design of these devices.

Distributed cognition and distributed morality: Agency, artifacts and systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
There are various philosophical approaches and theories describing the intimate relation people have to artifacts. In this paper, I explore the relation between two such theories, namely distributed cognition and distributed morality theory.

Tumor mutational burden as a determinant of metastatic dissemination patterns

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic data to elucidate whether metastasis in certain organs share genetic characteristics regardless of cancer type. No robust mutational patterns were identified across different metastatic locations and cancer types.

Des Sciences Sociales à l’Anthropologie Cognitive

open access: yesActivités, 2004
The “situated cognition” approach is not an unified paradigm; an historical analysis shows that it originated from the interaction of three distinct theoretical lineages: the first “situated action”, the “situated learning” school and the “distributed ...

Disconnected aging: cerebral white matter integrity and age-related differences in cognition. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cognition arises as a result of coordinated processing among distributed brain regions and disruptions to communication within these neural networks can result in cognitive dysfunction.

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Biologically inspired distributed machine cognition: a new formal approach to hyperparallel computation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The irresistable march toward multiple-core chip technology presents currently intractable pdrogramming challenges. High level mental processes in many animals, and their analogs for social structures, appear similarly massively parallel, and recent ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Non-entity conceptualisation as an approach in social education [PDF]

open access: yesSociální Pedagogika
The present theoretical study focuses on reconceptualising the ontological model applied in social pedagogy from an entity-oriented to a distributed model of a dynamically changing network.
