SUMMARY:2nd IBEC-ICMS Joint Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The event is in the framework of an alliance between the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) and the Institute for Complex Molecular Systems (ICMS)\, a research institute of the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).\n \nAs part of IBEC Strategic Plan 2018-2020\, It’s planned that the similarities and complementary aspects of both IBEC and ICMS – their multidisciplinarity\, active missions to connect with industry and clinicians\, and strong research in nano\, materials\, molecular devices\, supramolecular systems and regenerative medicine – may form the basis of an institutional-level alliance to share people\, resources and knowledge. \nThe event aims to identify synergies and potential for collaboration between IBEC groups and the researchers of ICMS. It is the 2nd edition of a series of joint symposiums that started in Eindhoven on September 2018.  During that symposium many natural connections initiated for the benefit of both our organizations. We therefore feel that there are excellent opportunities to further strengthen the ties between our institutes. Therefore\, we are organizing a number of scientific exchanges and working on the identification of common research interests. \nThis second ICMS-IBEC Symposium will be a great opportunity to foster collaborations\, strengthen the existing ones\, and an opportunity for young researchers involved in the exchange program to present their activities in the partner organization. \nIf you would like to attend\, please go to the symposium website and register (see link below). It is important to register so we can organize the room\, poster stands and catering accordingly. It takes only 20 seconds. You can also register even if you do not bring a poster along. \nDeadline for registration: 8th July 17h. \nWEBSITE: https://events.ibecbarcelona.eu/ibec-icms/ \n

SUMMARY:PhD Thesis Defence: Víctor González Tarragó
DESCRIPTION:Control of integrin-mediated mechanoresponse by binding partners and force loading rates\nVíctor González Tarragó\, Cellular and Molecular Mechanobiology group \nThis thesis is a study on the integrin-mediated mechanoresponse by binding partners and force loading rates. Regarding the binding partners\, here we demonstrate an alternative and counter-intuitive mechanism\, by which another adaptor protein (ZO-1) promotes activation but decreases mechanical resistance. Because such mechanical regulation is bound to impact in downstream mechanosensing processes\, this provides an interesting and novel way to regulate cell adhesion\, mechanoresponse\, and function in general. Regarding the force loading rates\, our results show that force loading rates drive mechanosensing by increasing reinforcement and adhesion growth at the local adhesion level\, in a talin-dependent way. However\, if mechanically induced deformations are too high or too fast\, the cytoskeleton fluidizes\, thereby decreasing force loading rates and mechanosensing. This provides a unifying mechanism to understand how cells respond not only to directly applied forces\, but also to passive mechanical stimuli such as tissue rigidity or ECM ligand distribution. Further\, it also provides a framework to understand how the seemingly opposed concepts of reinforcement and fluidization are coupled to drive mechanosensing. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:PhD Thesis defence: Javier Burgués
DESCRIPTION:“Signal Processing and Machine Learning for Gas Sensors: Gas Source Localization with a Nano-Drone”.\nJavier Burgués\, Signal and information processing for sensing systems group \nChemical source localization (CSL) by autonomous robots has been a topic of research since the early 1990s and still today remains elusive beyond simple scenarios. It has numerous potential applications\, such as the localization of toxic emissions\, malodors\, gas leaks and hazardous substances in general\, without risking human lives. An intuitive CSL approach is to mimic the known chemo-orientation behaviour of some flying insects\, such as moths and mosquitos\, which effectively use odor plumes for mating and foraging. However\, terrestrial robots are too slow to perform insect-like movements and the response time and limit of detection (LOD) of current odor sensors for key compounds of biological relevance for plume navigation is orders of magnitude higher than in biological chemoreceptors. Instead of using a slow terrestrial robot equipped with complex instrumentation\, in this thesis we address the CSL problem with a nano-drone\, i.e. a miniaturized aerial robot\, equipped with a simple metal oxide semiconductor (MOX) sensor. Improving key specifications of MOX sensors for this application is one of the core parts of this thesis. Specifically\, we introduce novel signal processing methods for estimating and optimizing the LOD\, reducing the power consumption and improving the response time. We propose a univariate LOD optimization method based on linearized calibration models and a multivariate approach based on orthogonal partial least squares (O-PLS). To improve the response time\, we use high-frequency features extracted from the MOX signal derivative\, which are optimized for changing wind conditions and real-time operation. A novel setup consisting on a 3D grid of MOX sensors is proposed for real-time visualization of the gas distribution. Two map-based CSL strategies are finally evaluated using the nano-drone in experiments performed in a large indoor environment (160 m2) where a chemical source is placed in challenging positions for the drone. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed nano-drone can quickly (< 3 min) build a rough gas distribution map (3D) of the environment and localize the main chemical source within it with small errors.

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Jordi Guiu
DESCRIPTION:Tracing the origin of adult intestinal stem cells\nJordi Guiu\, Biotech Research & Innovation Centre – University of Copenhagen \nJordi Guiu did his PhD in Anna Bigas laboratory (IMIM and Pompeu Fabra University-Barcelona) were he focused on the genetic circuitry that controls the establishment of hematopoietic stem cells during development. Then he joined Kim B. Jensen lab (Copenhagen University) as a postdoc\, were he obtained a Marie Curie fellowship. His current research is focused on the specification of intestinal stem cells during development using fate mapping technologies\, state of the art imaging\, biophysical modeling and a plethora of sequencing techniques.  \nThe adult small intestine is compartmentalized into villi and crypts containing post-mitotic differentiated and proliferative cells respectively. Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) located at the bottom of crypts express markers such as Lgr5 and fuel the constant replenishment of the intestinal epithelium. Importantly\, the cellular origin of adult ISCs remains unknown. Prior to birth the immature fetal intestine is structurally simpler than the adult intestine. It is characterized by villi separated by a continuous region composed of proliferative intervillus cells; crypts have not formed and there is no evidence of a stem cell niche. Interestingly\, intervillus cells located within the region between villi express the adult SAB marker Lgr5. Fate mapping studies have inferred the notion that fetal Lgr5 expressing cells are unique and specialized precursors for the adult ISCs. Using unbiased quantitative lineage-tracing approaches\, biophysical modeling and intestinal transplantation experiments\, we now demonstrate that in the fetal epithelium on-going tissue morphogenesis leads to a dynamic exchange of cells between the villi and intervillus regions and that all cells have got the potential to contribute to the adult stem cells. Moreover\, we present exciting data outlining the mechanism for tissue development based on 3D imaging and live microscopy. Our results demonstrate that large-scale tissue remodeling and cell fate specification are intertwined processes. Moreover\, these findings provide a direct link between the observed plasticity and cellular reprogramming of differentiating cells in adult tissue following damage\, revealing that stem cell identity is an induced rather than a hardwired property.
