The aim of the proposed work is to investigate genetic overlap between Body Mass Index (BMI), diabetes type 2 ‘metabolic syndrome’ and recurrent UPD. Some recent studies support the hypothesis that there may be shared aetiological factors between recurrent UPD, obesity and physical disor ...

Non-invasive Brain Machine Interfaces (BMI) bring great promise for neuro-rehabilitation and neuro-prosthesis, as well as for brain control of everyday devices and performance of simple tasks. Over the last 15 years the interest in BMIs has grown substantially, and a variety of interfaces have been developed. The field has been growing dramatically, and market studies reveal an estimated market si ...
