Three Determinants of Vestibular Hemispheric Dominance during Caloric Stimulation: A Positron Emission Tomography Study

2003

Hemispheric asymmetry in the visual contribution to postural control in healthy adults.

1997

International audience; This study was carried out in order to test the hypothesis of a right hemisphere dominance in the visual control of body balance. Eight healthy adults were subjected to a self-regulated lateral balance task, performed while sitting on a rocking platform. Four visual conditions were tested: open eyes with normal vision, closed eyes in the dark, left visual field-right hemisphere and right visual field-left hemisphere. Head and support displacements in the roll plane were recorded by means of an optoelectronic system. Two main results emerged from this study: (1) head stabilization in space was much more efficient in the left visual field-right hemisphere condition tha…

Brain lateralization probed by water diffusion at the atomic to micrometric scale

2019

International audience; Combined neutron scattering and diffusion nuclear magnetic resonance experiments have been used to reveal significant interregional asymmetries (lateralization) in bovine brain hemispheres in terms of myelin arrangement and water dynamics at micron to atomic scales. Thicker myelin sheaths were found in the left hemisphere using neutron diffraction. 4.7 T dMRI and quasi-elastic neutron experiments highlighted significant differences in the properties of water dynamics in the two hemispheres. The results were interpreted in terms of hemisphere-dependent cellular composition (number of neurons, cell distribution, etc.) as well as specificity of neurological functions (s…

Designing ‘trait-based null model’ approaches to investigate community assembly mechanisms

2014

SPEEAECOLDURGEAPSIéquipe CAPA; During the last decade, many studies have addressed the signature of community assembly processes by assessing the deviation of a functional diversity pattern from that expected in null communities, using a randomization algorithm. The basic principle has been to compare the functional structure of a ‘local community’ with a set of randomly generated communities from a ‘regional species pool’. Specifically, it allows assessing the extent to which species constituting a community are functionally more or less similar than expected under the assumption of a random assembly, thus revealing the influence of assembly processes such as competition or environmental a…

Diversity and complexity of microbial communities from a chlor-alkali tailings dump

2015

Abstract Revegetation of the tailings dumps produced by various industrial activities is necessary to prevent dust storms and erosion and represents a great challenge for ecological restoration. Little is known about the microbial colonisation and community structure of revegetated tailings following site exploitation. Here, we report the sequencing of 16S rRNA and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) fungal RNA gene amplicons from chlor-alkali residue and from an adjacent undisturbed soil to define the composition and assembly of the rhizosphere microbial communities. After quality filtering, a total of 72,373 and 89,929 bacterial sequences and 122,618 and 111,209 fungal sequences remained fo…

DIVERSITY AND THE MAIN ECOLOGICAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE EPIGEIC SPECIES OF FOREST ECOSYSTEMS IN THE SIBIU COUNTY, IN THE YEARS 2013-2014

2014

Epigeous insects in the “Dumbrava Sibiului” oak forest were captured between 2013-2014. From April to September in each year. 12 traps were installed in a circle 147 individuals collected belonged to 28 species and 6 families: Carabidae – 14 species (50.0%), 187 individuals (77.37 %), Staphylinidae – 7 species (25.0 %), 15 individuals (6.17 %), Silphidae – 3 species (10.72 %), 29 individuals (11.93 %), Elateridae – 1 species (3.51 %), 1 individual (0.41 % ), Scarabaeidae – 2 species (7.14 %), 8 individuals (3.29 %), Forficulidae – 1 species (3.51 %), 2 individuals (0.82 %)). Also, we presented in tables the ecological requirements of the species of Carabidae collected, the variation of thei…

Acs dominances ietekme uz meklēšanas uzdevuma rezultātu

2017

Bakalaura darbs „Acs dominances ietekme uz meklēšanas uzdevuma rezultātu” uzrakstīts latviešu valodā, datorsalikumā uz 38 lapām, satur 16 attēlus, 3 pielikumus un 22 atsauces uz literatūras avotiem. Darba mērķis ir noteikt, kā mainās monokulāra meklēšanas uzdevumu izpilde atkarībā no acs dominances. Dalībnieki veica meklēšanas uzdevumus trīs dažādos apstākļos – monokulāri ar dominējošo aci, ar nedominējošo aci un binokulāri. Meklēšanas uzdevumi bija 100 elementus lieli un ar dažādu mērķu skaitu – 0, 1, 5 un 10. Pētījuma rezultāti liecina, ka visātrāk meklēšanas uzdevumi tiek veikti monokulāros apstākļos ar dominējošo aci, tad binokulāros apstākļos, bet vislēnāk monokulāri ar nedominējošo ac…

Utilisation de la Dominance temporelle des sensations pour la caractérisation sensorielle des produits de la filière blé-farine-pain

2012

Eurogerm is specialized in flour correctors, bread improvers and technological ingredients for the wheat, flour and bread sector. The company gives great importance to sensory analysis as a diagnostic tool of finished products and has four expert panels; each panel is specialized in one category of products and is trained to standard sensory profiling. Today, in addition to the traditional method, Eurogerm wants to explore new methods in order to offer new services to its customers. This paper describes the development of Temporal Dominance of Sensations (TDS) created in the “Centre des Sciences du Goût et de l’Alimentation” (CSGA) (PINEAU et al., 2009). TDS provides information on the perc…
