This PhD thesis is dedicated to the study of the inverse problem of obstacle/object
detection using optimization methods. This problem consists in localizing an unknown object ω inside a known bounded domain Ω by means of boundary measurements
and more pr
Two-pore domain potassium (K2P) channels underlie the background K+ currents in
mammalian cells; these can be segregated into six subfamilies based on their structure and
functional properties. The acid-sensitive TASK-1 and TASK-3 channels belong to the

Electrocatalytic methods have been developed to perform CO2 and NO2- reduction, either in a separate or simultaneous way. These methods are a novel alternative to deplete CO2 and NO2- concentration. On the other hand, electroanalytical techniques can develop methods able to determine sulfite in w...
Los métodos electrocatalíticos que permiten reducir al CO2 y al ión NO2-, y ambas especies de manera simultánea, son una alternativa para poder disminuir las concentraciones de estas especies potencialmente contaminantes. Por otra parte, mediante técnicas electroanalíticas se pueden desarrollar m...
Obliquely convergent subduction margins develop trench-parallel faults shaping the regional architecture of orogenic belts and partitioning interplate deformation. However, transverse faults also are common along most orogenic belts, although have been la
Viruses are the most abundant biological entities known and represent the largest reservoir of uncharacterized genetic diversity on Earth. Their interactions with microbial hosts represent one of the most frequent biological associations in ecology, and yet they have not been adequately addressed...
Los virus son el tipo de entidad biológica más abundante de la Tierra y representan el mayor reservorio de diversidad genética por caracterizar. Las interacciones que establecen con sus hospederos representan, por ende, una de las asociaciones biológicas más frecuentes en ecología. Sin embargo, e...

European bees (Apis mellifera) are very important for human activity, but since 2006 there have been high losses of productive colonies. Varroa destructor is considered one of the main culprits, added to other factors such as malnutrition, pesticides and climate change. The objective of this thes...
In spite of the efforts focused on understanding the formation of high mass stars, we do not have a clear understanding of which are the processes involved. To understand it, we need to characterize objects in very early stages of evolution and therefore infer the initial conditions of these proc...
In this work, the research question was: is bacterial antibiotic resistance (AR) found in water bodies connected with resistance found in clinical environment? The prevalence of E. coli, Klebsiella spp., and Aeromonas spp. and their AR were studied in (waste) water samples derived from eight loc...
The axonal region most proximal to soma is the axon initial segment. This region is enriched in voltage-gated sodium channels as well as scaffolding proteins such as ankyrin-G, which allow to this structure to initiate action potentials. As shown in other central neurons, the molecular compositio...
