SectionLinks : Mapping Orphan Wikidata Entities onto Wikipedia Sections

Ostapuk, Natalia ; Difallah, Djellel Eddine ; Cudré-Mauroux, Philippe

In: Proceedings of the 1st Wikidata Workshop (Wikidata 2020) co-located with 19th International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC 2020), Virtual Conference, November 2-6, 2020, 2020, vol. 2773, p. 1-15

Wikidata is a key resource for the provisioning of structured data on several Wikimedia projects, including Wikipedia. By design, all Wikipedia articles are linked to Wikidata entities; such mappings represent a substantial source of both semantic and structural information. However, only a small subgraph of Wikidata is mapped in that way – – only about 10% of the sitelinks are linked to...

Inducible and reversible silencing of the Pvalb gene in mice: An in vitro and in vivo study

Filice, Federica ; Blum, Walter ; Lauber, Emanuel ; Schwaller, Beat

In: European Journal of Neuroscience, 2019, vol. 50, no. 4, p. 2694–2706

Inducible and reversible regulation of gene expression is a powerful approach for unraveling gene functions. Here, we describe the generation of a system to efficiently downregulate in a reversible and inducible manner the Pvalb gene coding for the calcium‐binding protein parvalbumin (PV) in mice. We made use of an IPTG‐inducible short hairpin RNA to activate Pvalb transcript knockdown...

In the Forest of Long Waiting : Charles d'Orléans and the Querelle de la Belle Dame sans mercy

Robinson, Olivia

In: Medium Aevum, 2018, vol. 87, no. 1, p. 81-105

This article examines the codicological and internal presentation of two prose letters which form part of the Querelle de la Belle Dame sans mercy. It suggests a possible link between these letters and the Blois court of poet and prince Charles d'Orléans in the years 1440-1450, proposing a possible redating of the letters to later in the fifteenth century than is usually thought.

Performance-based Research in the Medieval Convent

Robinson, Olivia

In: European Medieval Drama, 2017, vol. 21, p. 21-41

This article begins with Adrian Armstrong’s discussion of the coterie poetry composed by Charles d’Orléans and his associates at Blois to explore the ‘epistemic value and qualities’ not of communal poetry but rather of communal theatre within a quite different social group: a convent of Carmelite nuns in late-fifteenth-century Burgundy. In it I suggest that some of the ways in which...

Experience-based auditory predictions modulate brain activity to silence as do real sounds

Chouiter, Leila ; Tzovara, Athina ; Dieguez, Sebastian ; Annoni, Jean-Marie ; Magezi, David ; De Lucia, Marzia ; Spierer, Lucas

In: Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2015, vol. 27, no. 10, p. 1968–1980

Interactions between stimuli's acoustic features and experience-based internal models of the environment enable listeners to compensate for the disruptions in auditory streams that are regularly encountered in noisy environments. However, whether auditory gaps are filled in predictively or restored a posteriori remains unclear. The current lack of positive statistical evidence that internal...

Genome and transcriptome sequencing identifies breeding targets in the orphan crop tef (Eragrostis tef)

Cannarozzi, Gina ; Plaza-Wüthrich, Sonia ; Esfeld, Korinna ; Larti, Stéphanie ; Wilson, Yi Song ; Girma, Dejene ; Castro, Edouard de ; Chanyalew, Solomon ; Blösch, Regula ; Farinelli, Laurent ; Lyons, Eric ; Schneider, Michel ; Falquet, Laurent ; Kuhlemeier, Cris ; Assefa, Kebebew ; Tadele, Zerihun

In: BMC Genomics, 2014, vol. 15, no. 1, p. 581

Background: Tef (Eragrostis tef), an indigenous cereal critical to food security in the Horn of Africa, is rich in minerals and protein, resistant to many biotic and abiotic stresses and safe for diabetics as well as sufferers of immune reactions to wheat gluten. We present the genome of tef, the first species in the grass subfamily Chloridoideae and the first allotetraploid assembled de...
