Iongel Soft Solid Electrolytes Based on [DEME][TFSI] Ionic Liquid for Low Polarization Lithium-O-2 Batteries
(Wiley, 2022-07)
Lithium-air/O-2 batteries are a promising battery technology for automotive applications due to their high energy density. However, many challenges need to be solved, particularly the high reactivity of the electrolyte ...
Influence of ice formation on the dynamic and thermodynamic properties of aqueous solutions
(Elsevier, 2022-07-15)
Water dynamics in solutions with biological or non-biological solutes has been intensely studied when both components (solvent and solute) are amorphous. Here, we apply broadband dielectric spectroscopy combined with ...
Species-specific song responses emerge as a by-product of tuning to the local dialect.
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Oscine birds preferentially respond to certain sounds over others from an early age, which focuses subsequent learning onto sexually relevant songs.1-3 Songs vary both across species and, due to cultural evolution, among ...
Electron microscopy and calorimetry of proteins in supercooled water
(Nature, 2022)
Some of the best nucleating agents in nature are ice-nucleating proteins, which boost ice growth better than any other material. They can induce immersion freezing of supercooled water only a few degrees below 0 degrees ...
El ámbito educativo de jóvenes que egresan de recursos residenciales de protección en el estado español
(UNED, 2022-01)
Education is a key component for "successful" entry into the labor market. This is especially true for young people who spend their childhood and adolescent years in care before leaving the system at the age of 18. The ...
Evaluation of Tacotron Based Synthesizers for Spanish and Basque
(MDPI, 2022-02-07)
In this paper, we describe the implementation and evaluation of Text to Speech synthesizers based on neural networks for Spanish and Basque. Several voices were built, all of them using a limited number of data. The system ...
Enrichment of Oesophageal Speech: Voice Conversion with Duration-Matched Synthetic Speech as Target
(MDPI, 2021-06-26)
Pathological speech such as Oesophageal Speech (OS) is difficult to understand due to the presence of undesired artefacts and lack of normal healthy speech characteristics. Modern speech technologies and machine learning ...
PDX-Derived Ewing’s Sarcoma Cells Retain High Viability and Disease Phenotype in Alginate Encapsulated Spheroid Cultures
(MDPI, 2021-02-19)
Ewing’s Sarcoma (ES) is the second most frequent malignant bone tumour in children and young adults and currently only untargeted chemotherapeutic approaches and surgery are available as treatment, although clinical trials ...
Decreased salivary lactoferrin levels are specific to Alzheimer's disease
(Elsevier, 2020-07)
Background: Evidences of infectious pathogens in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains may suggest a deteriorated innate immune system in AD pathophysiology. We previously demonstrated reduced salivary lactoferrin (Lf) levels, ...
H2O2-preconditioned human adipose-derived stem cells (HC016) increase theirresistance to oxidative stress byoverexpressing Nrf2 and bioenergetic adaptation
(Biomed Central, 2020-08-03)
BackgroundMesenchymal stem cells, including those derived from human adipose tissue (hASCs), are currently being widely investigated for cell therapy. However, when transplanted at the site of injury, the survival and ...
