Les dispositifs d'imagerie cérébrale peuvent donner un aperçu de l'activité neuronale à plusieurs endroits et points dans le temps. En pratique, les études d'imagerie cérébrales sont généralement menées pour plusieurs personnes suivant le même protocole expérimental. L'inférence des régions actives du cerveau est un problème inverse mal posé qui ne peut être résolu qu'en ajoutant des hypothèses a priori sur les solutions.

Abstract:
Karl Polanyi used the notion of economistic fallacy in order to flag up the way in which formal definitions of the economy – rooted in the assumption of economising, self-interested market behaviour – were routinely applied as universal and rational by economists, political scientists, policy makers and in general public discourse. This thesis is a critical re-application of the notion of economistic fallacy in theoretical, historical and contemporary perspective. I argue that, although Polanyi’s broad generalisations are unsuitable for contemporary analysis, the same basic type of fallacy can

Abstract:
This dissertation explores the complex entanglements of an artistic traffic between two distinct 'visual economies' in eastern India, c.1772-c.1795. Both late Mughal and early colonial cultures were undergoing transformation, to the extent that during this era the nascent colonial artistic diaspora collapsed. Three inter-related areas will be interrogated: the prestation and commercial circulation of imagery between London, Calcutta and Murshidabad, the dichotomies of political and aesthetic spheres, and colonial representations of late Mughal culture as embroiled by such frameworks.

The problem of delays in product rollout becomes more unwieldy for new products that are being launched across many countries. This concern rises when firms operate in rapid technological change and high internationalisation business environments. This study aims to form an empirically based body of knowledge about rollout of new products across international markets, build strong theory and provide insights for better practice. The study focuses on both static and dynamic aspects of the management of new product rollout across international markets. The investigation considers an extensive se

Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is being used as first line treatment in women with large and locally advanced breast cancers (LLABCs). However, the response to NAC is difficult to predict. Growing evidence suggests that these patients are immunosuppressed and that circulating immunosuppressive regulatory cells and humoral factors affect the response to NAC. We explored the possible role of the in situ tumour immune milieu in inducing and affecting the responses to NAC, and the contribution of concomitant systemic circulating regulatory cells.

This thesis describes the use of phage display for the isolation of autoantigens in rheumatoid arthritis. The potential of the technology is demonstrated by the isolation of an autoantigen, eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1a1 (eEF 1 (x 1)) from a fibroblast cDNA library using rounds of selective enrichment with IgG from RA patients. Subsequently in order to isolate joint-specific antigens a phage-displayed cDNA library from rheumatoid pannus was generated and screened with analogous procedures.

Human polymorphic tandemly repeated loci have been exploited in linkage analysis and have also had a profound impact on forensic and legal medicine. Most DNA typing systems assay allelic length variation at tandem repetitive loci such as minisatellites. Although these include the most informative loci in the human genome, their forensic application is limited by innaccuracies in allele length measurement, and the need to make population genetic assumptions in statistical analysis.

O exercício físico é um mediador de adaptações do SNC, enquanto o envelhecimento pode ser considerado um fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de doenças neurodegenerativas. Neste trabalho investigamos o efeito do exercício físico, dieta hiperpalatável e envelhecimento no sistema insulina/IGF-1 em hipocampo de roedores. No trabalho onde utilizamos uma dieta hiperpalatavel, para mimetizar o estilo de vida ocidental, causou uma diminuição na passagem de IGF-1 pela barreira sangue cérebro

Dans un contexte d’internationalisation de plus en plus fort du droit pénal, dû à l’augmentation des coopérations interétatiques face à l’accroissement de la criminalité transfrontalière, la question du territoire est actuelle. Cet espace que chaque Etat s’approprie pour y faire respecter sa conception de l’ordre public peut faire l’objet de revendications par plusieurs pays. Cette étude a pour objectif d’analyser l’appréhension qui est faite du territoire pénal par les ordonnancements juridiques canadien et français.

Cette étude s’inscrit dans le courant de la psychologie de la perception du temps et du rythme et évalue le lien entre un trouble de la parole, nommément le bégaiement, et la capacité à percevoir et maintenir un rythme régulier. Les performances d’un groupe d’adultes bègues (n = 21) sont comparées à celles d’un groupe d’adultes non bègues (n = 24) lors d’activités de comptage explicite. Les séances comportent trois intervalles temporels standards (800 ms, 1200 ms et 1600 ms) et trois conditions expérimentales (compter silencieusement, compter oralement et compter oralement avec un auxiliaire c

Abstract:
Technological advances are providing us with the capability to integrate more and more functionality into a single chip. This is leading to a new design paradigm, System On a Chip (SOC). In SOC designs all the functionality of a system is put inside a single chip, leading to increased performance, reduced power consumption, lower costs, and reduced size. SOC design brings with it new challenges and difficulties, however. The designs are now large, complicated and involve both software and hardware components. The designs have to be modeled at a high level of abstraction before partitioning int

Abstract:
This study projects the economic impact of adoption of Bt eggplant in India, Bangladesh and Philippines. The welfare benefits from adoption of Bt eggplant are projected to be positive in all three countries. The welfare gains from adoption (discounted at 5 percent) are projected to be US $ 411 million for India, US $ 37 million for Bangladesh and US$ 28 million for the Philippines. Consumers gain about 57% of the welfare benefits, while the producers gain 43% of the total surplus. Simulation results indicate that India is in a position to make significant investments in the development and

Abstract:
This thesis began as an exploration of the idea of home, a study that revealed the importance of place. Seeking to understand what makes a successful place, I studied neighborhoods with which I was familiar, identifying characteristics of both the vital and the lifeless. As a foundation for architectural exploration, this study helped me to recognize the dynamic qualities of denser, more urban neighborhoods, and to establish rowhousing as the vehicle through which to undertake my exploration of urban living. While providing the genesis for the project and further defining certain elements as w

Abstract:
Multi-pulse transformer/rectifier systems are becoming increasingly popular in power distribution systems. These topologies can be found in aircraft power systems, motor drives, and other applications that require low total harmonic distortion (THD) of the input line current. This increase in the use of multi-pulse transformer topologies has led to the need to study large systems composed of said units and their interactions within the system. There is also an interest in developing small-signal models so that stability issues can be studied. This thesis presents a procedure for the aver

Abstract:
Jamaican farmers are experiencing constraints to hot pepper (Capsicum chinense) export production due to a quarantine pest -- the gall midge (Contarinia lycopersici; Prodiplosis longifila). There is a threat of gall midge introduction into the United States, where the insect pest is not known to occur. This research tests the significance of a range of variables to gall midge incidence. The purpose was to explain the spatial patterns that result from the relationships between gall midge incidence in hot pepper production and production methods and/or environmental conditions.
