Hierarchical multifunctional composites with thermoelectrically powered autonomous structural health monitoring for the aviation industry

HARVEST will unleash the potential of breakthrough technologies by creating integrated multifunctional systems for Aeronautics via the development of i) Structural composites, comprised of hierarchical carbon fiber (CF) reinforcements and an innovative thermoset 3R (repair, recycle and reprocess) epoxy matrix with ThermoElectric Generation (TEG) and self-repair capabilities, ii) Autonomously TEG -driven integrated systems for on- and off-line structural health monitoring-(SHM) and iii) Wired and low-power wireless SHM data transmission and mining system. The innovative intelligent materials and parts, will be manufactured in purposefully developed pilot lines aiming at reducing production time and costs. 
CFs yarns or textiles will be coated with nanomaterials using facile & environmentally friendly deposition and doping methods in a Roll-to-Roll (R2R) pilot line targeting dramatically increased TEG performance compared to existing composites, carbon and organic based materials. Innovative TEG-hierarchical composites will be manufactured with new generation 3R thermoset matrix systems enabling out of autoclave manufacturing and self-repair. These will be interfaced with a purposely designed hardware to (i) power inherent functionalities (e.g. strain, damage or UV-exposure sensing), (ii) drive external elements (e.g. piezo electric sensors for SHM) and (iii) transmit sensing signals to a remote panel. The autonomous SHM systems will increase the safety of civil aviation; reduce emissions and maintenance & life cycle costs. The proposed technologies will be finally integrated in two aircraft demonstrator parts, targeting areas with temperature gradients (e.g. engine vs. environment, inside vs. outside fuselage during flight) or where quick heat dissipation is essential (e.g. landing gear after take-off). The location of suitable heat sinks in real structures will be established using advanced numerical tools to identify thermal gradients in operating environment.
Deep water shrimp fisheries in Latin America: a review

Commercial fisheries are expanding their activities into deeper water. The life history features of these deep-water resources make them more vulnerable to exploitation than most shallow-water resources. Moreover, the apparent lack of solid information about the ecology of most deep-water species represents a major limitation for the development and implementation of management strategies. This scenario has caused great concern regarding the sustainability of these resources and the possible environmental impacts on the deep-sea ecosystem. In Latin America, commercial fisheries are going deep as well, and considering the above-mentioned concerns, we felt the need to compile the available information about the deep-water shrimp resources and the current status of their fisheries in Latin America. Focusing on Mexico, Central America, Peru, Chile and Brazil, this review describes the exploited species, and, whenever available, the fishing fleet, fishery statistics, and management strategies. A total of 17 species (10 spp. of Penaeoidea; 7 spp. of Caridea) are of commercial interest in Latin America, but deep-water shrimps are currently fished only in Costa Rica, Colombia and Chile. An implemented management plan exists in Chile and Colombia, while Brazil approved fishery regulations for the aristeid fishery, which were never implemented. Considering the lack of information about the biology of the deep-water shrimps, which hinders the development of adequate management strategies, we see the urgent need to improve the communication and collaboration between the different stakeholders in Latin American. We suggest the establishment of a searchable and constantly updated database, which may serve as a valuable source of information for researcher and decision makers. Finally, we propose the development of regional research plans aimed towards supporting measurements for a sustainable use of deep-water shrimps in Latin America.

Swimming Activity Prevents the Unloading Induced Loss of Bone Mass, Architecture, and Strength in Rats

We investigated whether swimming activity associated with a three-week period of hypoactivity could prevent the deleterious effects of disuse on the tibias of tail-suspended rats. Forty Wistar rats were divided into five groups: (HS) permanently hindlimb suspension rats; (HS + Swim) rats submitted to unloading interrupted by swimming exercise; (HS + WB) hindlimb suspension rats with interruption for regular weight bearing for the same length of time as the HS+Swim rats; (Control) control rats that were allowed regular cage activities; and (Control + Swim) control rats that underwent swimming exercise. At the end of the experiment, bone mineral density, bone strength, and trabecular quantification were analyzed. The hindlimb-suspended rats exhibited bone quality loss (significant decrease in BMD, bone strength, and deterioration of trabecular and cortical bone architecture; decrease in BV/TV, TbN, TbTh, ConnD, CtV, and CtTh; and increase in TbSp) when compared to control rats. In contrast, trained rats showed a significant increase of 43% in bone mass, 29% in bone strength, 58% in trabecular thickness, 85% in bone volume, 27% in trabeculae number, and 30% in cortical volume, when compared to the hindlimb-suspended rats. We conclude that swimming activity not only ameliorates but also fully prevents the deleterious effects on bone quality in osteopenic rats.

Exploring the role of gpcr expression diversity in receptor physiology and drug response

G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are key regulators of cell homeostasis. Given their importance in cell physiology, they have been extensively exploited as drug targets. Despite this, many discordant observations on receptor signalling and on GPCR drug response remain unexplained. Changes in receptor expression in different human tissues can be a key contributor to such differences in GPCR behaviour. And still, no comprehensive study has characterized human GPCR transcriptomics and its impact on receptor function. Such an analysis could help answer fundamental questions on GPCR pharmacology such as: How are different receptor types distributed across human tissues and how does this affect receptor function? How does age and gender-related GPCR differential expression affect receptor pharmacology? And how does splice variant distribution in different tissues influence receptor signalling? In this project, I will address these questions by applying a computational biology approach combining publicly available transcriptomics data with information on receptor structure, intracellular coupling, and pharmacogenomics. This will allow obtaining for the first time a GPCR-wide distribution map across human tissues; determining how differential expression according to age and gender can affect GPCR function; and assessing the impact of alternative splicing on receptor integrity, regulation, and coupling. At the end of this project, these insights will be made publicly available to the research community through the development of a web resource associated with the widely-used GPCR database. Using such a multidisciplinary approach, the proposed analysis will help clarify the importance of different receptor transcriptional profiles in cell physiology and drug response, point to more relevant systems to study GPCR signalling and to characterise new drug candidates, and foster a more personalised medicine by considering expression variability in the general human population.

Innovative value chain development for sustainable plastics in Central Europe

Capability for the diffusion of innovative biodegradable solutions among producers of packaging and other plastic products is dependent on the expectations of end-user industries (food sector, retail, medical and health sector). As long as these players are not convinced of the economic and environmental benefits of introducing biodegradable packaging and half products in their production systems, the critical mass for making bioplastics affordable cannot be reached. Moreover, due to the fact that misleading information on bioplastics has entered the market a lot of mistrust among the end-users arose.

To break this circle of mistrust and in order to find the critical mass for implementation of innovative environmentally-friendlier solution a systemic approach is needed within the Central Europe. The project PLASTICE enters with its idea directly in this point. By enabling intensification of interactions between demand and supply sides and by developing and implementing new tools in packaging, the project will path the way to new product applications and diffusion of innovation processes.

System architecture and conceptual data model for railway, common data dictionary and global system modelling specifications

The railway sector is currently acting in a fragmented way and in silos, corresponding most often to physical or functional subsystems or use cases, and the different owners/managers of the overall infrastructure at regional/national level, without global extensive view or full control of the global system involved by rail operations.
With the progress of digitization, analogue devices based on relays were progressively substituted by digital ones, and it is more and more evident that enabling the communication between already existing digital tools for various subsystems can be beneficial. What is missing is an efficient, automated and standardized way for these integrated and interplaying systems to act as one ecosystem: sharing, integrating, identifying, correlating and exploiting the right data at the right time.
In order to meet these challenges, the objective of LinX4Rail is to develop and promote within Shift2Rail framework and beyond, a sectorial common Functional Railway System Architecture. It will be supported by a widely adopted Shift2Rail Conceptual Data Model (CDM) that will, with the commitment of the Shift2Rail members, through Shift2Rail Programme Board Change Management Process, establish the standard for interactions between legacy and new systems and thus ensure sustainable interoperability between systems.
The ambition of LinX4Rail is to achieve a comprehensive approach for the CDM, global system modelling specification and a strategy for implementation of technological breakthroughs, including RCA, with the inputs from a communication system perspective and give a vision of future evolution of Functional Railway System Architecture.
ACTIVITY BASED LEARNING IN BUSINESS SCHOOLS: AN OBSERVATION AT ROYAL UNIVERSITY OF BHUTAN

An educational process or procedure intended to stimulate learning through actual experience is known as activity based learning. From pure science courses to application oriented courses like B.E to B. Tech and B.COM/B.Com Honours to BBA, M.Com to M.B.A is considered a step towards activity based learning. It was also felt by commerce practitioners in the field that commerce students were not in a position to implement their knowledge in real life situations. Today, activity based business learning is being practiced world over. Harvard Business School, Ivy College, and IIM Ahmedabad are few examples. There is only one Business college under Royal University of Bhutan having more than 1100 students and imparting education under BBA and B.com courses with specialization in the fields of HR, IT, Finance, Marketing, Tourism, and accounting. Different activities are being undertaken to facilitate learning of these students including examples, illustrations, exercises/practical problems, seminars, case studies, debate, projects, industrial tours, internships, preparation of video clips etc. The proposed paper intends to investigate role of these activities in helping the learners to prepare themselves for their future assignments as business managers, entrepreneurs etc.
Activity Factors of the Korean Exposure Factors Handbook

Exposure factors based on the Korean population are required for making appropriate risk assessment. It is expected that handbooks for exposure factors will be applied in many fields, as well as by health department risk assessors. The present article describes the development of an exposure factors handbook that specifically focuses on human activities in situations involving the possible risk of exposure to environmental contaminants. We define majour exposure factors that represent behavioral patterns for risk assessment, including time spent on routine activities, in different places, on using transportation, and engaged in activities related to water contact including swimming, bathing and washing. Duration of residence and employment are also defined. National survey data were used to identify recommended levels of exposure factors in terms of time spent on routine activities and period of residence and employment. An online survey was conducted with 2073 subjects who were selected using a stratified random sampling method in order to develop a list of exposure factors for the time spent in different places and in performing water-related activities. We provide the statistical distribution of the variables, and report reference levels of average exposure based on the reliable data in our exposure factors handbook.

Characterization of the diversity and function of plankton associated microbiota

Ever since living organisms arose in the oceans, they have competed for resources and space. However, many planktonic species developed peaceful cooperation involving mutualistic interactions between two partners. Within unicellular eukaryotes, such symbiotic association between heterotrophic hosts and microalgae is widespread and sustain ecologically important taxa, such as the Rhizaria, in the open ocean. While knowledge of bipartite symbiosis has greatly improved, it is only recently that scientists disclosed more intricate relationships involving additional partners such as bacteria. Wherever bacterial communities (i.e. microbiota) have been found in tight association with other organisms (e.g. humans or plants), its critical role for the biology and ecology has been demonstrated. The DYNAMO project will explore the diversity of multipartite symbiosis in the plankton and characterize the cellular metabolites they produce. Radiolarians and foraminifers will be used as relevant model for marine ecology. An original combination of single-cell sorting and sequencing coupled with microscopy will be used to characterize and specifically localize the partners of the association. Then, a cutting-edge approach of single-cell metabolomics, of the different partners taken individually or together, will allow us to disentangle the role of the associations in the physiology of the holobiont. The exceptional metabolomics facility and knowledge on marine photosymbiosis available at the host institution, combined with the original analytical expertise at a partner organization, will bridge the gap between a descriptive approach and the functional understanding of the biological processes involved in plankton associated microbiota. DYNAMO provides an innovative perspective on marine ecological research and represents an important step in my career development with the ambition to place me as one of the very few experts in the field of plankton metabolomics in Europe.
Early Ordovician mitrates and a possible solute (Echinodermata) from the western United States

Two new kirkocystid mitrate stylophorans (Echinodermata, Homalozoa) and a new possible solute (Echinodermata, Homalozoa) are described from the Early Ordovician of the western United States. The mitrates are among the earliest members of their clade to appear near the beginning of the Ordovician Radiation. Anatifopsis ninemilensis new species comes from the Ninemile Shale in central Nevada and the McKelligon Canyon Formation in west Texas. Anatifopsis fillmorensis new species comes from the middle Fillmore Formation in western Utah and a Ninemile Shale equivalent limestone bed in southern Nevada. The possible solute Drepanocystis dubius new genus new species from the lower Wah Wah Limestone in western Utah, shows unusual morphology with an elongate theca and a long arm shaped like a sickle.
Unconventional nmdar signaling theory for fragile x syndrome

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common cause of inherited intellectual disability (ID), and the leading known genetic cause of autism. This dominant phenotype represents a huge hindrance for clinicians in the treatment of FXS because the underlying neuronal deficits remain unknown. Individual neurons store information as we learn and acquire new information by modifying their connections with nearby neurons, a process called synaptic plasticity. This refers to activity-dependent long-term changes in synaptic strength but also synaptic structure, and is highly regulated by NMDA receptors (NMDAR). It has recently been proposed that NMDARs can signal in an unconventional manner. Our goal is to understand how unconventional NMDRs drive synaptic plasticity, and how this is dysregulated in the mouse model of FXS. For this, we will record electrical activity of the neurons and image synaptic structures during different forms of synaptic plasticity, and characterise metabotropic NMDAR signaling by functional genomic approaches. 
In summary, we will use a multi-disciplinary approach to unravel the mechanisms responsible for synaptic plasticity alteration in the mouse model for FXS and further our understanding of the neuronal processes underlying cognitive phenotypes of FXS. The outcomes of these experiments will not only offer hope to patients with FXS but will also further our understanding of the molecular basis of synaptic plasticity. If successful, this could serve as the basis for future molecular targets to promote cognitive recovery from ID, autism spectrum disorders and other diseases.
