Preciseness in REST APIs definition – PEEPS
The Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture is, by far, the most popular approach to build Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) that expose Web services. Today, APIs.guru counts more than 2500 REST APIs, from social networking, to e-commerce or weather. However, developing and using
Novel pharmacological strategies for modulation of capillary leakage during sepsis – SEPSIS-Perm
Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, i.e. a life-threatening condition that arises when the body’s response to an infection injures its own tissues and organs (doi:10.1001/jama.2016.0287). Sepsis is thus a syndrome of physiologi
flexIble proteiN desigN and accUratE biNDing estimatiOn – Innuendo
Computational protein design (CPD) consists of designing proteins accomplish- ing certain tasks. The case of non-covalent interactions requires designing molecules with a specified binding affinity range. However, this design problem is especially challenging due to the exponential size of the desig
Complex Predicates in Languages: Emergence, Typology, Evolution – COMPLETE
Although the term “complex predicates” is well established in linguistics, it is still a theoretical challenge. Complex predicates are generally defined as sequences of phonologically independent words, which together behave like a single predicate; but this definition covers a broad range of constr
New technologies and engineering laboratory for therapeutic ultrasound – TechnoFUS-Lab
Focused Ultrasound Therapies (FUS, or HIFU for High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) emerged in the 2000s as new therapies, completely non-invasive, based on the physical interaction between the high intensity ultrasound wave and the tissue to be treated. FUS therapies make it possible for example to b
CONFLICTS BETWEEN LARGE MARINE PREDATORS AND HUMANS: THE GENESIS AND MANAGEMENT OF PROBLEM INDIVIDUALS – ETHO-PREDATOR
A common misconception is that the emergence of problem animals in populations of large marine predators is the result of external factors that modify the innate, homogeneous behavior of individuals in a given population. Our hypothesis tests the opposite paradigm, which would suggest that, without
Ontology-based decision support plateform, for evaluating the clinical severity of Covid-19 patients and orienting them towards the right medical care option – ORIENT-COVID
In Lebanon, the COVID19 pandemic was added from March 2020 to the already very complicated context of the country which follows the conjunction of several crises affecting the Lebanese State and its population. Currently, the management of the COVID19 pandemic in Lebanon does not include planned int
MRI-guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MRIgHIFU): Application to Cancer treatment – MRgHIFU
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Its treatment relies on three well established pillars (surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy) and several highly promising approaches such as immunotherapy. In the last decade, local therapies, based on thermal ablation or cryoablati
Green spaces: Exposures and Health issues – EVISA
Over the last decade, the greenspace sector has considerably developed and employs today over 100,000 people in France: landscapers, gardeners, civil servants, public facility operators, golf-course employees and other sports facilities, horticulturists, plant and tree nursery workers, etc. Numerous
Integrated biogeochemical, geographical and hydrological approaches to track sources of contaminants in mixed land-use watersheds – CHYPSTER
The presence of numerous chemical and microbiological contaminants in aquatic ecosystems can lead to significant degradation of the ecological status of natural waters and increase human and animal exposures to these contaminants through drinking water, crop irrigation, or recreational uses; they ma
