Medicalgenomics.org : an open source database and retrieval system for biomedical analysis

Die Molekularbiologie von Menschen ist ein hochkomplexes und vielfältiges Themengebiet, in dem in vielen Bereichen geforscht wird. Der Fokus liegt hier insbesondere auf den Bereichen der Genomik, Proteomik, Transkriptomik und Metabolomik, und Jahre der Forschung haben große Mengen an wertvollen Daten zusammengetragen. Diese Ansammlung wächst stetig und auch für die Zukunft ist keine Stagnation absehbar. Mittlerweile aber hat diese permanente Informationsflut wertvolles Wissen in unüberschaubaren, digitalen Datenbergen begraben und das Sammeln von forschungsspezifischen und zuverlässigen Informationen zu einer großen Herausforderung werden lassen. Die in dieser Dissertation präsentierte Arbeit hat ein umfassendes Kompendium von humanen Geweben für biomedizinische Analysen generiert. Es trägt den Namen medicalgenomics.org und hat diverse biomedizinische Probleme auf der Suche nach spezifischem Wissen in zahlreichen Datenbanken gelöst. Das Kompendium ist das erste seiner Art und sein gewonnenes Wissen wird Wissenschaftlern helfen, einen besseren systematischen Überblick über spezifische Gene oder funktionaler Profile, mit Sicht auf Regulation sowie pathologische und physiologische Bedingungen, zu bekommen. Darüber hinaus ermöglichen verschiedene Abfragemethoden eine effiziente Analyse von signalgebenden Ereignissen, metabolischen Stoffwechselwegen sowie das Studieren der Gene auf der Expressionsebene. Die gesamte Vielfalt dieser Abfrageoptionen ermöglicht den Wissenschaftlern hoch spezialisierte, genetische Straßenkarten zu erstellen, mit deren Hilfe zukünftige Experimente genauer geplant werden können. Infolgedessen können wertvolle Ressourcen und Zeit eingespart werden, bei steigenden Erfolgsaussichten. Des Weiteren kann das umfassende Wissen des Kompendiums genutzt werden, um biomedizinische Hypothesen zu generieren und zu überprüfen.

Meta-model for calculating the mean energy demand of automated storage and retrieval systems

Energy efficiency has become an important research topic in intralogistics. Especially in this field the focus is placed on automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) utilizing stacker cranes as these systems are widespread and consume a significant portion of the total energy demand of intralogistical systems. Numerical simulation models were developed to calculate the energy demand rather precisely for discrete single and dual command cycles. Unfortunately these simulation models are not suitable to perform fast calculations to determine a mean energy demand value of a complete storage aisle. For this purpose analytical approaches would be more convenient but until now analytical approaches only deliver results for certain configurations. In particular, for commonly used stacker cranes equipped with an intermediate circuit connection within their drive configuration there is no analytical approach available to calculate the mean energy demand. This article should address this research gap and present a calculation approach which enables planners to quickly calculate the energy demand of these systems.

General and specific brain regions involved in encoding and retrieval of events: what, where, and when.

Remembering an event involves not only what happened, but also where and when it occurred. We measured regional cerebral blood flow by positron emission tomography during initial encoding and subsequent retrieval of item, location, and time information. Multivariate image analysis showed that left frontal brain regions were always activated during encoding, and right superior frontal regions were always activated at retrieval. Pairwise image subtraction analyses revealed information-specific activations at (i) encoding, item information in left hippocampal, location information in right parietal, and time information in left fusiform regions; and (ii) retrieval, item in right inferior frontal and temporal, location in left frontal, and time in anterior cingulate cortices. These results point to the existence of general encoding and retrieval networks of episodic memory whose operations are augmented by unique brain areas recruited for processing specific aspects of remembered events.

Memory for object features versus memory for object location: a positron-emission tomography study of encoding and retrieval processes.

Regional cerebral blood flow was measured with positron-emission tomography during two encoding and two retrieval tasks that were designed to compare memory for object features with memory for object locations. Bilateral increases in regional cerebral blood flow were observed in both anterior and posterior regions of inferior temporal cortex and in ventral regions of prestriate cortex, when the condition that required retrieval of object locations was subtracted from the condition that required retrieval of object features. During encoding, these changes were less pronounced and were restricted to the left inferior temporal cortex and right ventral prestriate cortex. In contrast, both encoding and retrieval of object location were associated with bilateral changes in dorsal prestriate and posterior parietal cortex. Finally, the two encoding conditions activated left frontal lobe regions preferentially, whereas the two retrieval conditions activated right frontal lobe regions. These findings confirm that, in human subjects, memory for object features is mediated by a distributed system that includes ventral prestriate cortex and both anterior and posterior regions of the inferior temporal gyrus. In contrast, memory for the locations of objects appears to be mediated by an anatomically distinct system that includes more dorsal regions of prestriate cortex and posterior regions of the parietal lobe.
