Self-Evaporation Dynamics of Quantum Droplets in a 41K-87Rb Mixture
(MDPI, 2021-01-19)
We theoretically investigate the self-evaporation dynamics of quantum droplets in a 41K-87Rb mixture, in free-space. The dynamical formation of the droplet and the effects related to the presence of three-body losses are ...
Common Variants in Alzheimer’s Disease and Risk Stratification by Polygenic Risk Scores
(Springer, 2021-06-07)
Genetic discoveries of Alzheimer's disease are the drivers of our understanding, and together with polygenetic risk stratification can contribute towards planning of feasible and efficient preventive and curative clinical ...
Agricultural Soils Amended with Thermally-Dried Anaerobically-Digested Sewage Sludge Showed Increased Risk of Antibiotic Resistance Dissemination
(Frontiers Media, 2021-04-28)
The application of sewage sludge (SS) to agricultural soil can help meet crop nutrient requirements and enhance soil properties, while reusing an organic by-product. However, SS can be a source of antibiotic resistance ...
Cellulose as an Inert Scaffold in Plasmon-Assisted Photoregeneration of Cofactor Molecules
(American Chemical Society, 2020-04-29)
Plasmonic nanoparticles exhibit excellent light-harvesting properties in the visible spectral range, which makes them a convenient material for the conversion of light into useful chemical fuel. However, the need for using ...
Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics of Hydrogen on Tungsten Surfaces
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2021-04-07)
The dissociation process of hydrogen molecules on W(110) was studied using density functional theory and classical molecular dynamics. We have calculated the dissociation probability for molecules with energies below 300 ...
Students’ Perception about Sustainability in the Engineering School of Bilbao (University of the Basque Country): Insertion Level and Importance
(MDPI, 2021-08-03)
Almost three decades have passed since the Rio declaration, and after numerous initiatives developed to include sustainability in higher education, with the support of Education for Sustainable Development, it is worth ...
Strategies for Solving Addition Problems Using Modified Schema-Based Instruction in Students with Intellectual Disabilities
(MDPI, 2021-07-30)
A study is presented on the strategies employed to solve additive change problems by three students with intellectual disabilities (two of them with autism spectrum disorder). The students followed a program involving ...
A Model for the Magnetoimpedance Effect in Non-Symmetric Nanostructured Multilayered Films with Ferrogel Coverings
(MDPI, 2021-07-29)
Magnetoimpedance (MI) biosensors for the detection of in-tissue incorporated magnetic nanoparticles are a subject of special interest. The possibility of the detection of the ferrogel samples mimicking the natural tissues ...
Ascertaining the initiation of epidemic resurgences: an application to the COVID-19 second surges in Europe and the Northeast United States
(The Royal Society, 2021-10-06)
[EN]Assessing a potential resurgence of an epidemic outbreak with certainty is as important as it is challenging. The low number of infectious individuals after a long regression, and the randomness associated with it, ...
Preclinical characterization of antagomiR-218 as a potential treatment for myotonic dystrophy
(Elsevier, 2021-12-03)
Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a rare neuromuscular disease caused by expansion of unstable CTG repeats in a non-coding region of the DMPK gene. CUG expansions in mutant DMPK transcripts sequester MBNL1 proteins in ...
