A phenomenological model for interfacial water near hydrophilic polymers
Earls, A.; Calderer, M.-C.; Desroches, M.
; Zarnescu, A.; Rodrigues, S. (2022-06-30)
; Zarnescu, A.; Rodrigues, S. (2022-06-30)
We propose a minimalist phenomenological model for the ‘interfacial water’ phenomenon that
occurs near hydrophilic polymeric surfaces. We achieve this by combining a Ginzburg–Landau
approach with Maxwell’s equations which ...
Immunosenescence and Altered Vaccine Efficiency in Older Subjects: A Myth Difficult to Change
Fülöp, T.; Larbi, A.; Pawelec, G.; Cohen, A.; Provost, G.; Khalil, A.; Lacombe, G.; Rodrigues, S.; Desroches, M.; Hirokawa, K.; Franceschi, C.; Witkowski, J.M. (2022-04-01)
; Desroches, M.; Hirokawa, K.; Franceschi, C.; Witkowski, J.M. (2022-04-01)
Organismal ageing is associated with many physiological changes, including differences in the immune system of most animals. These differences are often considered to be a key cause of age-associated diseases as well as ...
Classification of bursting patterns: A tale of two ducks
Desroches, M.; Rinzel, J.; Rodrigues, S. (2022-01-20)
; Rinzel, J.; Rodrigues, S. (2022-01-20)
Bursting is one of the fundamental rhythms that excitable cells can generate either in response to incoming stimuli or intrinsically. It has been a topic of intense research in computational biology for several decades. ...
Hyperactivation of monocytes and macrophages in MCI patients contributes to the progression of Alzheimer's disease
Munawara, U.; Catanzaro, M.; Xu, W.; Tan, C.; Hirokawa, K.; Bosco, N.; Dumoulin, D.; Khalil, A.; Larbi, A.; Lévesque, S.; Ramassamy, C.; Barron, A.; Cunnane, S.; Beauregard, P.; Bellenger, J.P.; Rodrigues, S.; Desroches, M.; Witkowski, J.M.; Laurent, B.; Frost, E.; Fülöp, T. (2021-12-01)
; Desroches, M.; Witkowski, J.M.; Laurent, B.; Frost, E.; Fülöp, T. (2021-12-01)
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease ultimately manifesting as clinical dementia. Despite considerable effort and ample experimental data, the role of neuroinflammation related ...
Are Brain-Computer Interfaces Feasible withIntegrated Photonic Chips?
Salari, V.; Rodrigues, S.; Saglamyurek, E.; Simon, C.; Oblak, D. (2021-11)
; Saglamyurek, E.; Simon, C.; Oblak, D. (2021-11)
The present paper examines the viability of a radically novel idea for brain-computer interface (BCI), which could lead to novel technological, experimental and clinical applications. BCIs are computer-based systems that ...
Stochastic facilitation in heteroclinic communication channels
Sirio Carmantini, G.; Schittler Neves, F.; Timme, M.; Rodrigues, S. (2021-09-01)
(2021-09-01)
Biological neural systems encode and transmit information as patterns of activity tracing complex trajectories in high-dimensional state spaces, inspiring alternative paradigms of information processing. Heteroclinic ...
Targeting Impaired Antimicrobial Immunity in the Brain for the Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease
Fülöp, T.; Tripathi, S.; Rodrigues, S.; Desroches, M.; Bunt, T.; Eiser, A.; Bernier, F.; Beauregard, P.; Barron, A.; Khalil, A.; Plotka, A.; Hirokawa, K.; Larbi, A.; Bocti, C.; Laurent, B.; Frost, E.; Witkowski, J. (2021-05-04)
; Rodrigues, S.; Desroches, M.; Bunt, T.; Eiser, A.; Bernier, F.; Beauregard, P.; Barron, A.; Khalil, A.; Plotka, A.; Hirokawa, K.; Larbi, A.; Bocti, C.; Laurent, B.; Frost, E.; Witkowski, J. (2021-05-04)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and aging is the most common risk factor for developing the disease. The etiology of AD is not known but AD may be considered as a clinical syndrome with multiple ...
Spike-adding and reset-induced canard cycles in adaptive integrate and fire models
Desroches, M.; Kowalczyk, P.; Rodrigues, S. (2021-05-03)
; Kowalczyk, P.; Rodrigues, S. (2021-05-03)
We study a class of planar integrate and fire (IF) models called adaptive integrate and fire (AIF) models, which possesses an adaptation vari- able on top of membrane potential, and whose subthreshold dynamics is piece- ...
Why we should use topological data analysis in ageing: Towards defining the “topological shape of ageing”
Fülöp, T.; Desroches, M.; Cohen, A.; Santos, F.A.N.; Rodrigues, S. (2020-10-27)
; Cohen, A.; Santos, F.A.N.; Rodrigues, S. (2020-10-27)
Living systems are subject to the arrow of time; from birth, they undergo complex transformations (self-organization) in a constant battle for survival, but inevitably ageing and disease trap them to death. Can ageing be ...
Inflection, Canards and Folded Singularities in Excitable Systems: Application to a 3D FitzHugh–Nagumo Model
Uria-Albizuri, J.; Desroches, M.; Krupa, M.; Rodrigues, S. (2020-09-07)
; Krupa, M.; Rodrigues, S. (2020-09-07)
Specific kinds of physical and biological systems exhibit complex Mixed-Mode Oscillations mediated by folded-singularity canards in the context of slow-fast models. The present manuscript revisits these systems, specifically ...
