Les préaux ::des espaces publics à réinvestir
No full textComment allier qualité de vie urbaine et forte densité? Face à la rareté des terrains publics, certaines villes prennent les devants en ouvrant les préaux scolaires à un plus large public que celui des élèves, valorisant un réseau existant d’espaces extérieurs hautement qualitatifs, souvent sous-exploités par les habitant·es. Le projet de recherche PublicSchoolyards établit un focus sur la situation lausannoise
Affective biases in attention, cognitive control, and awareness ::chapter 19
No full textEmotionally or motivationally significant stimuli tend to attract, divert, or hold attention more readily than neutral stimuli. These effects arise during numerous tasks, varying as a function of stimulus type or emotional cue. Their neural substrates involve enhanced activity of sensory cortices under direct influence of emotional or reward processing systems, including the amygdala, in combination with other top-down or bottom-up biases that together serve to prioritize behaviorally relevant information for access to conscious awareness. Other indirect influences act through interactions of emotional and motivational systems, with cortical or subcortical networks controlling attention, including executive functions and neuromodulatory pathways. These data reveal that attentional processes encompass multiple biasing signals that can modulate stimulus processing, based not only on space or object representations, as traditionally considered, but also value-based representations. Such mechanisms of emotional attention or affect-driven biases may operate preattentively, involuntarily, or non-consciously, yet nonetheless be regulated by current goals or context
Childhood trauma and relationship with the parents ::associations with lipids, glucose, and prolactin levels during antipsychotic treatment in patients with first-episode psychosis
No full textIs deceleration the key element in vertical jump performance to return to sport after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with hamstring graft? A preliminary study
No full textBackground/Purpose: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) often leads to persistent neuromuscular deficits, complicating return-to-sport decisions. Reliable functional assessments are needed to guide RTS after ACLR. The main objective was to examine countermovement jump (CMJ) measures to identify which parameters can best distinguish between ACLR and control participants. The secondary objective was to determine whether performance alterations between operated and non-operated limb exist during CMJ after ACLR.
Design: Non-randomized, single blinded, cross-sectional study
Methods: Limb symmetry index (LSI) was calculated for vertical ground reaction force (vGRF), maximal power (MP), and eccentric rate of force development (RFDe) during countermovement jumps (CMJ) performed on force plates by an ACLR group (n=64) and a control group (n=47). First analysis compared LSI vGRF, LSI MP and LSI RFDe between groups. Secondary analysis compared vGRF, MP and RFDe between the operated/non-operated limb in the ACLR group and dominant/non-dominant limb in the control group. Between-group comparisons were made using Mann-Whitney tests due to non-normal data distribution. Effect sizes were calculated to assess the magnitude of differences.
Results: Participants included 64 ACLR patients (mean age 26.5 ± 5.0 years; 33 females) and 47 controls (mean age 23.6 ± 2.1 years; 24 females). CMJ measures in the ACLR group were significantly reduced for LSI vGRF (p < 0.001), LSI MP (p < 0.001) and LSI RFDe (p < 0.001). The ACLR group exhibited significant differences between both limbs in terms of vGRF (p < 0.001), MP ( p < 0.001), and RFDe (p < 0.01). No significant limb differences were found in the control group.
Conclusion: Measures of deceleration from the CMJ are altered after ACLR and should be considered throughout rehabilitation
A research data management (RDM) community for ELIXIR
No full textResearch data management (RDM) is central to the implementation of the FAIR (Findable Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) and Open Science principles. Recognising the importance of RDM, ELIXIR Platforms and Nodes have invested in RDM and launched various
projects and initiatives to ensure good data management practices for scientific excellence. These projects have resulted in a rich set of tools and resources highly valuable for FAIR data management. However, these resources remain scattered across projects and ELIXIR structures, making their dissemination and application challenging.
Therefore, it becomes imminent to coordinate these efforts for sustainable and harmonised RDM practices with dedicated forums for RDM professionals to exchange knowledge and share resources.
The proposed ELIXIR RDM Community will bring together RDM experts to develop ELIXIR’s vision and coordinate its activities, taking advantage of the available assets. It aims to coordinate RDM best
practices and illustrate how to use the existing ELIXIR RDM services.
The Community will be built around three integral pillars, namely, a network of RDM professionals, RDM knowledge management and RDM training expertise and resources. It will also engage with external stakeholders to leverage benefits and provide a forum to RDM professionals for regular knowledge exchange, capacity building and development of harmonised RDM practices, keeping in line with the overall scope of the RDM Community.
In the short term, the Community aims to build upon the existing resources and ensure that the content of these remain up to date and fit for purpose. In the long run, the Community will aim to strengthen the skills and knowledge of its RDM professionals to support the
emerging needs of the scientific community. The Community will also devise an effective strategy to engage with other ELIXIR structures and international stakeholders to influence and align with developments and solutions in the RDM field
Reducing antenna leakage in quasi-monostatic satellite radar using planar metamaterials
No full textIn an autonomous robotic space debris removal mission, an essential sensor used for navigation is an FMCW radar designed for close-range relative navigation. To achieve the required range performance, minimizing RF leakage between the transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) antennas is essential for the accurate detection of the range and velocity of the targeted space debris. Antennas positioned above the metallic satellite front face are highly susceptible to RF leakage, primarily caused by surface current propagation and lateral waves traveling parallel to the platform. This study presents two lightweight, single-layer planar metamaterials—a novel compact electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) and a non-uniform high-impedance surface (HIS)—optimized to suppress both surface waves and interact with space waves within the 9.3–9.8 GHz frequency range. These designs address strict size, weight, and power (SWaP) constraints while ensuring compatibility with extreme space conditions and resistance to mechanical shocks. Experimental validation indicates that a minimum Tx/Rx isolation improvement of 10 dB is achieved using the HIS, and 20 dB is achieved using the EBG across the radar’s operational bandwidth (5%)
