Behavioural individuality in c. elegans

Animal behaviour is shaped by genetic traits, memories of past experiences and current internal states. Even in isogenic animal populations in a controlled environment, individual behaviour can be found. I obtained evidence that unexpectedly, the behaviour of adult C. elegans nematodes is influenced by the age of their mother. Progeny from young mothers explore less and dwell more in the same spot. I will exploit the model to characterise how the physiology of one generation determines the behaviour of the next generation. Second, I will determine additional environmental factors that imprint on C. elegans during development and thus modulate behaviour later in life. To examine the mechanism of maternal-age induced and environmentally induced behavioural variation, I will combine innovative genetic and pharmacological tools with state-of-the animal tracking and quantitative behavioural data analysis. I aim to determine the molecules and cells that sense and transmit the signals during development, and characterise the changes in neuronal wiring affecting behaviour in adult animals. Funding for this project will allow me to describe how 1) transgenerational effects such as maternal age and 2) environmental stimuli modulate behaviour later in life, in an amenable model organism such as C. elegans. Both parts of the project will partially overlap in time to complete the action within a 2-year time frame. As components of the nervous system are largely conserved between the nematodes and mammals, findings are likely to be extrapolated to higher animals.
Spatialities of europeanization in the western balkans

The researcher will carry out a EURoWEB to examine how the Europeanization of the Western Balkans (WB) manifests at insufficiently researched socio-spatial levels. By introducing an innovative TPSN (Territory, Place, Scale, Network) framework to the Europeanization studies, testing it in a WB region with the “gender lens” and developing a new methodological tool, the project will explore the way the territory, place, scale, and network interact to enable or to inhibit the Europeanization of WB. Starting from the critical and the horizontal conception of Europeanization, the Europeanization of WB will be analysed by focusing on the exchange, transfer, and mutations of EU urban policies, through inter-urban networks (IUN). The researcher will collect qualitative and quantitative data about the participation of urban actors from Zagreb (Croatia), Belgrade (Serbia), Pristina (Kosovo) in the selected European IUN and conduct a social network analysis (SNA) and qualitative network analysis (QNA) to grasp not only the networks impact but also their interplay with other socio-spatial dimensions in which they are embedded. This will allow her to sketch the contours and explain the underlying, invisible and undertheorized, but potent spatialities that underpin the dynamic process of Europeanization of WB. The fellowship will provide a unique opportunity for filling the significant gaps between socio-spatial theorising and Europeanization studies. Capitalizing from the fruitful exchange between researcher expertise in urban sociology and host institution and supervisor’s expertise in Southeastern European studies / Europeanization, the overall aim of the fellowship is to develop a new socio-spatial conception of Europeanization and a new method that can be used in the further Europeanization research, in and out the EU, as well as in the further empirical testing of the TPSN
A game-changing light aircraft enabled by advanced materials and novel production menthods

Nordic Aircraft is an expert in the development and production of advanced composite structures for large commercial aerospace companies (Saab Aerostructures, GKN Aerospace, Swedish Space Corporation). 

Nordic Aircraft is now developing a novel composite aircraft that will set a new standard in the growing market for Light Sport Aircrafts, a market expected to reach 3,500 aircrafts per year in 2016. The key innovations are advanced composite material development and production methods providing high performance and economy (value for money), supported by extensive wind tunnel tests that allow us to provide the best flying experience, safety and comfort. 

The ESCaPE aircraft manufacturing relies on advanced materials and novel production methods (highly integrated composite structures) that were developed with national funding, together with technologies normally used in the commercial aircraft industry and in space applications. The use of these materials and methods allows us to provide high experience/safety/comfort (large windows, safety cage, large cabin) without compromising on performance/economy (low drag, low weight). These characteristics are unique differentiating features that set the ESCaPE aircraft apart from the competition. 

Nordic Aircraft has already invested €4.5M (consisting of 63,000 hours of work but not including infrastructure and equipment costs) to reach the current state of development (TRL 6-7). The phase 1 study will include technical feasibility (industrialization of the current prototype and additional tests of the full-scale mock-up), commercial feasibility (IPR and go-to-market strategy, with a particular focus on certification requirements from EASA) and financial feasibility (phase 2 budget and co-funding). 

The ESCaPE aircraft is developed and manufactured in Europe. Nordic Aircraft aims to reach a production of 350 aircrafts per year (8% market share) generating 260 jobs and €67M by 2024.
Detrital zircon evidence for the ternary sources of the Chinese Loess Plateau

Abstract The provenance of Chinese loess is fundamental for understanding its origin, transportation and climatic significance. In this paper, eight samples were collected for detrital zircon age analysis, five from different deserts, and three from the Jingbian Section in the northern Chinese Loess Plateau, covering an age range of 2.6–0.03 Ma. The new results, integrated with knowledge of relevant topography and wind patterns, demonstrate that the age spectra of the detrital zircons in the loess are different from those of the sands from the Tarim, Junggar and Qaidam basins, implying that these basins were not the sources of the silts of the Loess Plateau. Further analysis suggests that the three sources for the loess are: (1) clastic materials eroded from the mountains of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (especially the Gobi Altai and Hangay), (2) clastic loess-sized materials generated by erosion of the Qilian Mountains in the NE Tibetan Plateau, and (3) minor clastic debris derived from the mountains of the North China Craton. Thus, silts of the Loess Plateau have a complex origin, although inland basins, long believed to be important sources, have only a minor role at most.
BREAST PUMP AND BREAST PUMP VALVE ASSEMBLY

The present invention relates to a breast pump, in particular a breast pump and a breast pump valve assembly each for use in providing negative pressure when expressing milk. A breast pump valve assembly comprises a suction chamber for fluid connection to a negative pressure source. A fluid chamber is defined between a first one-way valve and a second one-way valve, wherein the first one-way valve is configured to allow flow of fluid into the fluid chamber and the second one-way valve is configured to allow flow of fluid out of the fluid chamber. A displacement member fluidly separates the suction chamber and the fluid chamber and is configured such that application of negative pressure to the suction chamber causes movement of the displacement member to thereby increase the volume of the fluid chamber and draw fluid into the fluid chamber through the first one-way valve.
Health, Fitness, and Responses to Military Training of Officer Cadets in a Gulf Cooperation Council Country

To quantify the health, fitness, and physiological responses to military training of Officer Cadets from a Gulf Cooperation Council country.One hundred and nineteen Officer Cadets volunteered; body composition, core body temperature, aerobic fitness, hydration status (urine osmolality), cardiovascular strain, physical activity (3-dimensional accelerometry), and energy expenditure (doubly labelled water) were measured over 5-days of Basic Training (BT), Army Training (AT), Navy Training (NT), and Air Force Training (AFT).There were no differences between courses for body mass index (mean all courses: 24.1 +/- 4.1 kg x m2) or peak core body temperature (mean all courses: 38.1 +/- 0.4 degrees C) (p > 0.05). AT body fat (19.8 +/- 3.6%) and BT VO2 max (36.8 +/- 11.6 mL x kg(-1) x min(-1)) were lower than the other courses (BT, 26.1 +/- 8.1; NT, 26.0 +/- 6.0; AFT, 24.7 +/- 6.1%) and (AT, 44.8 +/- 9.6; NT, 45.0 +/- 7.5; AFT, 44.6 +/- 5.2 mL x kg(-1) x min(-1)), respectively (p < 0.05). NT urine osmolality (979 +/- 90 mOsmol x kg(-1)) was similar to BT (946 +/- 181 mOsmol x kg(-1) p > 0.05) but lower in AT (868 +/- 144 mOsmol x kg(-1), p < 0.05) and AFT (883 +/- 121 mOsmol x kg(-1), p < 0.05). Cardiovascular strain during NT (22 +/- 5% HRR) was lower than other courses (range, 25 +/- 4-29 +/- 3% Heart Rate Reserve) (p < 0.05). Physical activity level during AFT (1.70 +/- 0.18 AU) was lower than other courses (range, 1.86 +/- 0.21-1.92 +/- 0.18 AU) (p > 0.05).Positive developments were apparent from BT leading into other courses. Potential exists to increase physical training volume on all courses, which may improve participants' aerobic fitness, body composition, and health.

Energy Efficiency for Public Transport Infrastructure in Central Europe

EfficienCE aims at increasing energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy (RE) usage in public transport (PT) infrastructures to reach local, regional and also EU energy targets. With an average share of only 6.3% RE in CE countries and low application of new technologies to increase EE in PT infrastructures, CE countries are challenged with the EU’s target to achieve a 10% share of RE in transport by 2020 (Renewable Energy Directive). EfficienCE takes up this high relevance and need of improving EE of PT infrastructures to exploit the untapped potentials in this sector. Therefore, 12 partners incl. 7 PT authorities/companies from 7 different CE countries will work on the following specific outputs in thematic WPs: WP T1) strategies & innovative managerial approaches for planning, financing & deploying energy-efficient PT infrastructures incl. new ways of data-based planning (e.g. PT infrastructure cadastre in Leipzig/Budapest or concept for integration of RE into e-bus charging infrastructure in Bergamo); WP T2) strengthening the capacity of the PT sector by providing capacity building measures like workshops/trainings, handbooks and a CE tool repository providing access to innovative tools & services to improve EE in PT; WP T3) pilot application of novel energy saving technologies in PT infrastructures being “first-of-its-kind” in CE ranging from RE integration into metro stations (Vienna) & trolley depots (Gdynia) to upgrade a substation for multipurpose use of existing PT infrastructure (Maribor) and new buffer storage technologies (Pilsen). EfficienCE‘s planned capacity building & communication activities will foster knowledge exchange (e.g. through a User Forum & webinars) overcoming disparities of knowledge & expertise of PT authorities/companies on EE PT infrastructures across CE. EfficienCE’s project results have a high replication potential and the project will become a seedbed for leverage of investments and multiplier effects for EE PT infrastructures.
Functional community structure of shallow hard bottom communities at Easter Island (Rapa Nui)

Important, often abrupt, and irreversible shifts associated with the degradation of ecosystem functioning and services are increasingly commonplace. Thus, a trait-based view of communities may be more insightful than that based solely on species composition, especially when inferring ecological responses to environmental change. This underscores the importance and urgency of establishing benchmarks against which future community changes and functional structure can be evaluated. As a first step toward setting these baselines and their current spatial variability, we here describe geographic and among-habitat patterns in the functional structure of shallow hard bottom communities, including fish assemblages, across the northeast and west coasts of Rapa Nui. We also document temporal patterns of change in dominant benthic functional groups that have taken place over the past 15 years at selected sites on this isolated Pacific island. Generally weak vertical zonation patterns were observed, with most striking differences due to the paucity of branching pocilloporid corals in shallow waters( 15 m) habitats, with contrasting recovery. These results suggest depth-dependent disturbance regimes that differ in types and frequency of events, as well as capacity to recover. Overall, our results highlight the apparent resilience of the current system and provide a first-cut benchmark as to where management subsystems might be prescribed so as to spatially match ecosystem characteristics.
Antibacterial Activities of Bacterial Symbionts of Soft Coral Sinularia Sp. against Tuberculosis Bacteria

Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Although TB is a curable disease, it continues to
be one of the most important infectious causes of death worldwide. Indonesia ranks 3rd on the list of TB high
burden countries in the world with 86,000 cases deaths and the Multi Drug Resistant Tuberculosis (MDR TB)
estimated cases in Indonesia is 10,000. This research was aimed to isolate and characterize of soft coral
Sinularia sp.-associated bacteria having antibacterial activity against Tuberculosis bacteria. There were
109 isolates collected from Sinularia sp. Two isolates from Sinularia sp.-associated bacteria, SC4TGZ3 and
SC4TGZ4 were successfully screened for antibacterial against Tuberculosis bacteria. SC4TGZ3 was found to
inhibit the growth of MDR TB strain HE, MDR TB strain SR and H37Rv. Whereas, SC4TGZ4 was found to
inhibit the growth of MDR TB strain HE. Based on PCR amplification 16S rDNA softcoral bacateria were
identified as follows: SC4TGZ3 was closely related to Pseudovibrio sp. and SC4TGZ4 was closely related to
Alpha proteobacterium sp
A machine-vision-based system for PPT remote control

It is popular to give a presentation by Microsoft Power Point, using computer and digital projector. In this paper, a kind of new software for PPT remote control is proposed and realized. The hardware configurations are a PC camera and a common laser pointer. The software identifies the intention of the user by the recognition of the trails of the laser spots through machine vision techniques and then controls the PPT paging. During the implement of the software, some new methods were proposed. We generated a brightest background image for the pointer trail extraction, instead that the literatures often used means of several images. We defined sub window to improve the adaptability and decrease the time complexity of the processing. We chose the first pixel of the laser spot encountered instead of the center of the spot to avoid the complex position computation. We provided a fine neural network structure for the classification of the trails of the laser spot. The application of the system showed that it has the advantages of low hardware cost, convenient installation, good portability, and fine function scalability.
[No-scalpel vasectomy. Profile of acceptance and results].

Background: Men have few effective methods for birth control. The surgical method vasectomy is highly safe and effective although in Mexico represents only 2.4% of all contraceptive methods used. Objective: To determine the characteristics complications and results of the men who requested and underwent no-scalpel vasectomy in the Instituto Nacional de Perinatologi­a Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes in Mexico. Material and method: Retrospective cohort study with data of clinical records of men who underwent no-scalpel vasectomy from 2003 to 2007. Sociodemographic and clinical variables and complications reported as well as espermatobioscopy data were included. Descriptive analysis was performed of different variables and chi squared test between proportions. Results: A total of 596 no-scalpel vasectomies were performed. The average age was 36.5 years and 13.4 of schooling 86.9% were married with 9.6 years of union. Socioeconomic status was as follows: medium (25%) middle high (20.1%) and high (24.7%). The 94.3% of men requested the no-scalpel vasectomy because of satisfied fertility and 5.7% by morbidity in his couple. The complications were as follows: epididymitis (2.2%) mild haematoma (1.5%) and contact dermatitis (0.2%). The surgical complications were significantly more frequent for the group with varicocele compared with the normal men group (p < 0.05). Azoospermia was achieved in 99.1% of men at 18 weeks after the no-scalpel vasectomy. Early recanalization occurred in 0.5% of men. There were no pregnancies. Conclusions: The profile of men who requested no-scalpel vasectomy was in a great proportion healthy in the fourth decade of life with high school or greater satisfied fertility and high socioeconomic status. No-scalpel vasectomy is a method of fertility planning very effective with low morbidity.
Comparative analysis between pyrolysis products of Spirulina platensis biomass and its residues

Today’s needs of energy are yet globally dominated by fossil energy sources, causing the depletion of non-renewable energy. Alternatively, a potential substitute is the energy of biomass. Spirulina platensis (SP) is a microalgae biomass which, if extracted, will produce solid waste called Spirulina platensis residue (SPR). This research explores the pyrolysis product, produced within the range of 300 – 600 ºC, from the pyrolysis of SP and SPR using fixed bed reactors. The influence of temperature on pyrolysis product’s yield and characteristics are investigated by using mass balance method and gas chromatography – mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technique, respectively. The results from mass balance method present an optimum pyrolysis temperature of 550 ºC to obtain the desired liquid product of bio-oil, presenting the percentage of 34.59 wt.% for SP and 33.44 wt.% for SPR case. Additionally, with the increasing temperature, the char yield decreases for about 30 wt.% and the yield of gas seems to sharp increase from 550 to 600 ºC. These tendencies are both applied for SP and SPR source pyrolysis product. Interestingly, the benefit use as fossil fuel substitute might be derived, thanks to high HHV at the bio-oil product (32.04 MJ/kg for SP and 25.70 MJ/kg for SPR) and also at the char product with of 18.85-26.12 MJ/kg for both cases. The additional benefit come from the high content of C in its char product (50.31 wt.% for SPR and 45.26 wt.% for SP) that might be able to be used as an adsorbent, soil softener or other uses in the pharmaceutical field. ©2019.

Residential built environment and walking activity: Empirical evidence of Jane Jacobs’ urban vitality

Abstract This study intends to empirically verify Jacobs’ urban vitality theory, which was based on the observations of her New York City neighborhood in the mid-20th century. To examine the relationship between the residential built environment and walking activity, we used telephone survey data consisting of 1823 valid samples from across Seoul, a city characterized by a high population density and a well-established public transportation system. Respondents were asked questions about their residential location, their demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, and their walking activities. This study then used geographic information systems to measure objective indicators of built environment variables within 500-meter buffer areas based on the home addresses of the respondents. Then, this study constructed multilevel regression models with walking activity as the dependent variable. Our results indicated that walking activity is associated with Jacobs’ six conditions for urban vitality, including land use mix, density, block size, building age, accessibility, and border vacuums.
