Joan Estelrich Artigues (Felanitx 1896 – París 1958) es un personaje histórico ideal para
acercarse al estudio de los nacionalismos españoles y, al mismo tiempo, observar la
manera en la que el catalanismo de entreguerras ...
Agents make decisions under uncertainty. They are not only uncertain about the
true realizations of variables of interest, but also about their degree of uncertainty.
Using survey of business uncertainty, I study firms’ ...
Vidal Saez, Maria Sol(Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2024-04-19)
Organisms need to integrate its previous experience with its current internal state in order to deliver a suitable response to dynamic changes in their environment. This thesis is devoted to analyze, using a mathematical ...
Esta investigación versa sobre el papel de la Virgen en el desarrollo, desde el siglo XIII al XVI, de estrategias de proselitismo y acomodación religiosa dirigidas a la población mudéjar de los antiguos territorios andalusíes, ...
San José i Plana, Adrià(Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2024-04-19)
The primary goal of this PhD is to deepen our understanding and improve the modeling capacity of zoonotic spillover, the multilevel process by which pathogens manage to overcome a series of natural barriers and infect other ...
Ribonucleoprotein condensates such as stress granules (SGs) and processing bodies (PBs) form in response to specific stimuli in the cell. Even though the key protein and RNA elements of these condensates are starting to ...
Second language use online has become a regular practice for many Internet users reflecting the emergence of new participatory cultures in the virtual world. However, little is yet known about the processes of language use ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are central to cellular signaling and pivotal in drug development. This thesis investigates allosteric communication in GPCRs, crucial for their effective modulation in pharmacotherapy. ...
Esta tesis tiene como objetivos evaluar el entorno alimentario alrededor de las escuelas de Barcelona en términos de proximidad y disponibilidad de establecimientos alimentarios y su relación con el nivel socioeconómico ...
RNA modifications, collectively known as the ‘epitranscriptome’, play a major role in multiple
biological processes, including splicing regulation, gene expression regulation and antibiotic
resistance. Unfortunately, ...
Esta tesis aborda la malnutrición y la sarcopenia en pacientes con enfermedades crónicas, centrándose en la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) y la enfermedad renal crónica. Utilizando los criterios de la Global ...
This thesis explores technical factors influencing brain PET quantification, developing brain PET harmonization framework, assessing Centiloid robustness as a clinical biomarker, and evaluating the associations between ...
The origin of animals has puzzled scientists for centuries. The transition from a unicellular eukaryote to animals is undoubtedly one of the biggest evolutionary transitions in Earth’s history. To unravel the evolutionary ...
Polycomb repressive complexes (PRC1/2) are key chromatin regulators in development. Their deregulation is implicated in various cancers including leukaemia. Meanwhile, MLL-rearrangements by chromosomal translocations and ...
Esta Tesis Doctoral presenta la edición y el estudio global de seis certificados de peregrinación a los lugares santos de La Meca y Medina, datados entre los ss. XV y XVI. La particularidad de esta tipología documental ...
García de Castro García, Gonzalo(Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2024-04-12)
Bilingual infants acquire words at a similar rate as monolingual ones, despite navigating a more
intricate linguistic environment. The mechanisms behind this phenomenon remain elusive. Our
project addressed the potential ...
RNA is a molecule that is released by the different tissues into the
circulation. When it is found in the circulation it is called cell-free
RNA (cfRNA). This type of molecule has great potential as a
noninvasive biomarker ...
Alternative splicing is a post-transcriptional process that allows the generation of
multiple transcript and protein isoforms from a single gene by differential processing
of exons and introns. This Thesis focuses on ...
Microtubules form diverse arrays according to the cell type or the cell cycle stage to facilitate the context-specific functions of the cytoskeleton. One way by which cells achieve this is by restricting the formation of ...
