Pervasive Lying Posture Tracking [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
There exist significant gaps in research about how to design efficient in-bed lying posture tracking systems. These gaps can be articulated through several research questions as follows. First, can we design a single-sensor, pervasive, and inexpensive system that can accurately detect lying postures? Second, what computational models are most effective

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

On the Concept of Postural Muscles and Posture in Man

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Physiotherapy, 1983
Basic human posture should be derived from the principal movement pattern, namely gait. Since we stand on one leg for most of the time during walking, the stance on one leg should be considered to be the typical posture in man; the postural muscles are those which maintain this posture.

Unlocking the potential of tumor‐derived DNA in urine for cancer detection: methodological challenges and opportunities

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Au-delà de la haine de soi juive : la judéité “d’interrogation” d’Irène Némirovsky

open access: yesRevue Italienne d'Etudes Françaises, 2017
Le concept de « haine de soi juive », souvent convoqué pour définir le rapport d’Irène Némirovsky à la judéité ne suffit pas, dans son manichéisme, à rendre compte de l’appropriation complexe du discours antisémite.
