A privacy-aware and secure system for human memory augmentation

Bexheti, Agon ; Langheinrich, Marc (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Università della Svizzera italiana, 2019 ; 2019INFO011.

The ubiquity of digital sensors embedded in today's mobile and wearable devices (e.g., smartphones, wearable cameras, wristbands) has made technology more intertwined with our life. Among many other things, this allows us to seamlessly log our daily experiences in increasing numbers and quality, a process known as ``lifelogging''. This practice produces a great amount of pictures and videos...

A clinal polymorphism in the insulin signaling transcription factor foxo contributes to life-history adaptation in Drosophila*

Durmaz, Esra ; Rajpurohit, Subhash ; Betancourt, Nicolas ; Fabian, Daniel K. ; Kapun, Martin ; Schmidt, Paul ; Flatt, Thomas

In: Evolution, 2019, vol. 73, no. 9, p. 1774–1792

A fundamental aim of adaptation genomics is to identify polymorphisms that underpin variation in fitness traits. In Drosophila melanogaster, latitudinal life‐history clines exist on multiple continents and make an excellent system for dissecting the genetics of adaptation. We have previously identified numerous clinal single‐nucleotide polymorphism in insulin/insulin‐like growth factor...

A novel Ca2+-binding protein that can rapidly transduce auxin responses during root growth

Hazak, Ora ; Mamon, Elad ; Lavy, Meirav ; Sternberg, Hasana ; Behera, Smrutisanjita ; Schmitz-Thom, Ina ; Bloch, Daria ; Dementiev, Olga ; Gutman, Itay ; Danziger, Tomer ; Schwarz, Netanel ; Abuzeineh, Anas ; Mockaitis, Keithanne ; Estelle, Mark ; Hirsch, Joel A. ; Kudla, Jörg ; Yalovsky, Shaul

Signaling cross talks between auxin, a regulator of plant development, and Ca2+, a universal second messenger, have been proposed to modulate developmental plasticity in plants. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we report that in Arabidopsis roots, auxin elicits specific Ca2+ signaling patterns that spatially coincide with the expression pattern of...
