Neuro-Plasmonics

Date du début: 1 avr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mars 2018,

Research neuronal signaling is the subject of a very large community, but progresses face a dense multi-scale dynamics involving signaling at the molecular, cellular and large neuronal network levels. Whereas the brain capabilities are most likely emerging from large neuronal networks, available electrophysiological methods limit our access to single cells and typically provides only a fragmented ...

Nanometer Resolution in Two-Beam Direct Laser Writing Lithography (NanoR 2BDLW)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,

Two-photon direct laser writing (DLW) lithography is a powerful tool to fabricate 3D structures with feature sizes of ~100 nm. This technique is based on the quadratic dependence of the absorption of near-infrared (NIR) light (two-photon absorption, 2PA) by molecules called photoinitiators which trigger the photopolymerization of curable resins. With the aim of downsizing the structures to the nan ...

Body schema learning and adaptation in the iCub humanoid robot using whole-body tactile information (iCub Body Schema)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2014, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2016,

State-of-the-art robotic technologies rely on preprogrammed models and largely lack the capacity to adapt to unexpected changes to their bodies or the environment. In order to expand the domain where they can be applied, they need to respond more autonomously, flexibly and robustly. The applicant will use the iCub humanoid robot, recently equipped with whole-body tactile sensing, to address these ...

VISUAL MODELLING USING GANGLION CELLS (VISUALISE)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,

The processing capabilities of biological visual systems are still vastly superior in terms of performance for real-time and low-power applications compared with conventional artificial vision. There is increasing evidence that biology has evolved a multitude of cell types, including at the level of the retina, to adapt to an extensive set of dynamic visual environments. Existing bio-inspired arti ...

Genetic predictors of brain responses underlying social behavior and implications for oxytocin treatment (OxyGene)

Date du début: 16 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 15 janv. 2016,

Oxytocin (OXT) and dopamine (DA) can mediate social behavior in multiple species. Despite social behavior shows a strong genetic component, the genes underlying this heritability remain unknown. The central hypothesis of this proposal, based on preliminary data is that genetic variation in dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) modulates social behavior. The goal of this study is to tease out direct effects ...

Label Free Nanoscopy Using Infra Red (LANIR)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,

Every year, Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects about 800,000 new patients in Europe and directly causes 50% of dependency of aged persons. Currently there is no test to diagnose this disease. There is a great need to improve outcomes for patients with lung cancer which causes between 15-28% of all cancer deaths in Europe.Chemical and structural imaging with nanoresolution under ambient conditions ca ...

Adaptive Modular Architecture for Rich Motor Skills (AMARSi)

Date du début: 1 mars 2010, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,

Description Richness of biological motor behavior in robotic systems The motor skills of today’s robots still must be qualified as poor. The AMARSi Integrated Project aims at a qualitative jump toward biological richness of robotic motor skills. To achieve this goal, a number of innovative scienti ...

Novel Design Principles and Technologies for a New Generation of High Dexterity Soft-bodied Robots Inspired by the Morphology and Behaviour of the Octopus (OCTOPUS)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2013,

The octopus is a marine invertebrate with amazing motor capabilities and intelligent behaviour. Its body has no rigid structures and has interesting characteristics, from an engineering viewpoint: infinite number of degrees of freedom (dof), bending in many different directions, variable and controllable stiffness, high dexterity, fine manipulation, highly distributed control. The octopus represen ...

CRAZY FOR ROCKING RESEARCHERS (C4R)

Date du début: 1 mai 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,

"It’s now very clear how much Genoa and Liguria need to reinforce the researchers role, especially after the 2010 Researchers Night edition. The C4R consortium worked hardly to guarantee the researchers engagement in the three cities events. On that occasion they will meet citizens also for introducing themselves and speak about their private and professional life. Researchers in Liguria are numer ...

Variable Impedance Actuation Systems Embodying Advanced\nInteraction Behaviours (VIACTORS)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2012,

Most of today's robots have rigid structures and actuators which require complex software control algorithms and sophisticated sensor systems in order to behave adaptable, compliant, and safe in contact with unknown environments or with humans. Moreover, in terms of energy efficiency, peak force and speed, these robots are still considerably weaker than their biological archetypes. An alternative ...
