Protecting and rescuing the effectors: roles of differentiation and survival in the control of memory T cell development

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Vaccines, arguably the single most important intervention in improving human health, have exploited the phenomenon of immunological memory. The elicitation of memory T cells is often an essential part of successful long-lived protective immunity.

Survival processing versus self-reference : a memory advantage following descriptive self-referential encoding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Previous research has shown that rating words for their relevance to a survival scenario leads to better retention of the words than rating them for self-reference. Past studies have, however, relied exclusively on an autobiographical self-reference task

I Am Not A Prisoner of War : Agency, Adaptability, and Fulfillment of Expectations Among American Prisoners of War Held in Nazi Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In war memory, the typical prisoner of war narrative is one of either passive survival or heroic resistance. However, captured service members did not necessarily lose their agency when they lost their freedom.

Scarcity may promote cooperation in populations of simple agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the study of the evolution of cooperation, resource limitations are usually assumed just to provide a finite population size. Recently, however, it has been pointed out that resource limitation may also generate dynamical payoffs able to modify the ...

The Survival Advantage: Underlying Mechanisms and Extant Limitations

open access: yesEvolutionary Psychology, 2015
Recently, researchers have begun to investigate the function of memory in our evolutionary history. According to Nairne and colleagues (e.g., Nairne, Pandeirada, and Thompson, 2008 ; Nairne, Thompson, and Pandeirada, 2007 ), the best mnemonic strategy ...

Darwinian Data Structure Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Data structure selection and tuning is laborious but can vastly improve an application's performance and memory footprint. Some data structures share a common interface and enjoy multiple implementations.

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

Cultural Heritage and its survival: image, memory, archetype

open access: yesConservar Património, 2016
Over the last few years, we have been witnessing countless disaster situations (i.e. fires, floods, earthquakes...) and the consequent degradation, disappearance and irreparable damage to heritage assets that bear fundamental witness to history, memory ...

Protective effector memory CD4 T cells depend on ICOS for survival. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Memory CD4 T cells play a vital role in protection against re-infection by pathogens as diverse as helminthes or influenza viruses. Inducible costimulator (ICOS) is highly expressed on memory CD4 T cells and has been shown to augment proliferation and ...

Subversive: Space as a Movement-Making Tool [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
By exploring placemaking and indigenous memory, this paper argues that space can and should be utilized in movements against oppression. Grassroots resistance is increasingly necessary as the globally marginalized face the constant threats of ...
