In this fMRI study we investigated functional connectivity between components of the mentalising system during a social emotion task, using psychophysiological interaction (PPI) analysis. Ten adults (22–32 years) and 18 adolescents (11–18... more
The present series of experiments had two main objectives: The first was to determine the conditions under which self-injection of the benzodiazepine diazepam would be optimal; the second was to identify neurochemical substrates which... more
Land-use/land-cover change is the most important factor in causing biodiversity loss. The Mediterranean region has been affected by antropic disturbance for thousands of years, and is, nowadays, one of the most significantly altered... more
Efforts to bridge emotion theory with neurobiology can be facilitated by dynamic systems (DS) modeling. DS principles stipulate higher-order wholes emerging from lower-order constituents through bidirectional causal processes – offering a... more
In order to minimize possible adverse reactions, the functional integrity of proteins in products derived from human plasma has to be unaffected by methods of preparation and storage conditions. Numerous biologically relevant functions of... more
Reliable and valid evaluation of hand strength is important for determining the effectivity of treatment strategies and it is accepted that grip and pinch strength provide an objective index for the functional integrity of upper... more
The paper presents the trends in the development of methods and systems for manufacturing and assembly process planning on the background of Concurrent Engineering strategies. The solutions for the functional integration of... more
During the past 20 years, numerous studies have explored the R&D-marketing interface and its role in the new product development (NPD) process. Academics and practitioners (including a PDMA task force) have examined commonly used measures... more
This paper is the first part of a trilogy, which comprises a detailed study of a special type of functional organization and demonstrates its relevance with respect to the origin and evolution of life. Self-replicative macromolecules,... more
This article presents a four-dimensional product-concept model enhancing cross-functional knowledge creation in product innovation: the dimensions presented in the new model are: technology, end-user, brand and business logic. The... more
Power density of power electronic converters in different applications has roughly doubled every 10 years since 1970. Behind this trajectory was the continuous advancement of power semiconductor device technology allowing an increase of... more
