Assessment of the role of emotions in audiovisual associations through an enactive approach Open
In the expanding literature on audiovisual associations, the question of how music influences the way a person actively creates an image has received little attention. To address this gap, our study investigated the effect of music-induced…

Object Exploration and Manipulation in Infants at Typical vs. Elevated Likelihood for ASD: A Review Open
The present review considers the growing body of literature on fine motor skills in infants at elevated genetic likelihood (EL) for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This area of study aims to identify crucial motor markers associated with t…

Sadness influences brightness, amazement favours curvilinearity, tenderness sets the shades of green: how musical emotions shape image making Open
In the growing literature on audiovisual correspondences, the question of how music influences image making has receivedlittle attention. To fill this gap, in this study we investigated the effect of music-induced emotions on several key p…

Development of a Universal Validation Protocol and an Open-Source Database for Multi-Contextual Facial Expression Recognition Open
Facial expression recognition (FER) poses a complex challenge due to diverse factors such as facial morphology variations, lighting conditions, and cultural nuances in emotion representation. To address these hurdles, specific FER algorith…

Investigating Colour-Sound Mapping in Children and Adults: A Pilot Study Open
This paper presents an experimental study that investigates the mapping between color and sound in two groups of subjects, consisting of 8 children and 8 adults, respectively. The color was decomposed using the Hue-Saturation-Brightness re…

Morphological and biomolecular targets in retina and vitreous from Reelin-deficient mice (Reeler): Potential implications for age-related macular degeneration in Alzheimer’s dementia Open
The neurosensory retina is an outgrowth of the Central Nervous System (CNS), and the eye is considered “a window to the brain.” Reelin glycoprotein is directly involved in neurodevelopment, in synaptic plasticity, learning and memory. Cons…

The Efficiency of Gene Electrotransfer in Breast-Cancer Cell Lines Cultured on a Novel Collagen-Free 3D Scaffold Open
Gene Electro-Transfer (GET) is a powerful method of DNA delivery with great potential for medical applications. Although GET has been extensively studied in vitro and in vivo, the optimal parameters remain controversial. 2D cell cultures h…

A Novel 3D Scaffold for Cell Growth to Assess Electroporation Efficacy Open
Tumor electroporation (EP) refers to the permeabilization of the cell membrane by means of short electric pulses thus allowing the potentiation of chemotherapeutic drugs. Standard plate adhesion 2D cell cultures can simulate the in vivo en…

Motor performance in a shape sorter task: A longitudinal study from 14 to 36 months of age in children with an older sibling ASD Open
During development, motor skills are fundamental in supporting interactions with the external world. The ability to plan actions is a particularly important aspect of motor skill since it is involved in many daily activities. In this work,…

Changes in vitreal protein profile and retina mRNAs in Reeler mice: NGF, IL33 and Müller cell activation Open
A possible link between Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) and Reelin might take place during impaired retinal development occurring in the Reelin deficient mouse model (Reeler). To better characterize NGF and retina impairments at the Reeler retin…

Dopamine neuronal loss contributes to memory and reward dysfunction in a model of Alzheimer’s disease Open
Alterations of the dopaminergic (DAergic) system are frequently reported in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients and are commonly linked to cognitive and non-cognitive symptoms. However, the cause of DAergic system dysfunction in AD remains t…

Performance of Motor Sequences in Children at Heightened vs. Low Risk for ASD: A Longitudinal Study from 18 to 36 Months of Age Open
Recent research shows that motor difficulties are a prominent component of the behavioral profile of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and are also apparent from early in development in infants who have an older sibling with ASD (High Risk; H…
