Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Reaching, Grasping and Re-grasping: Learning Multimode Grasping Skills
, 2020 The ability to adapt to uncertainties, recover from failures, and coordinate between hand and fingers are essential sensorimotor skills for fully autonomous robotic grasping. In this paper, we aim to study a unified feedback control policy for generating the finger actions and the motion of hand to accomplish seamlessly coordinated tasks of reaching ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

VISION-BASED GRASP PLANNING OF 3D OBJECTS USING GENETIC ALGORITHM
, 2012 Vision-based grasp planning can be approached as an optimization problem, where a hand configuration that indicates a stable grasp needs to be located in a large search space.

Grasp-specific motor resonance is influenced by the visibility of the observed actor [PDF]
, 2016 Motor resonance is the modulation of M1 corticospinal excitability induced by observation of others' actions. Recent brain imaging studies have revealed that viewing videos of grasping actions led to a differential activation of the ventral premotor ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

On the relevance of grasp metrics for predicting grasp success
2017 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2017 We aim to reliably predict whether a grasp on a known object is successful before it is executed in the real world. There is an entire suite of grasp metrics that has already been developed which rely on precisely known contact points between object and hand.

Grasp Moduli Spaces, Gaussian Processes and Multimodal Sensor Data
, 2014 We discuss our recent and ongoing work on deformation-based grasp synthesis and transfer which formulates a joint space of shapes and grasps – a Grasp Moduli Space– within which both grasp configurations and object shapes can be continuously deformed. In
