Relación entre el bienestar subjetivo y el bienestar psicológico en niños y niñas de 10 y 12 años: el rol de los afectos
ENG- Subjective well-being (SW) and psychological well-being (PH) constitute complex psychosocial phenomena that are undergoing conceptual and empirical development, which is reflected, among other things, in the lack of ...
Síntesis total de la Anfidinolida B1
[spa] En esta Tesis Doctoral se ha estudiado la síntesis total de la Anfidinolida B1, un macrociclo de 26 miembros aislado por primera vez por Shimizu y colaboradores en 1994 en Santo Tomás, una de las Islas Vírgenes de ...
Heterobifunctional molecules: PROTACs and beyond
[eng] Our body is an intricate, well-organized structure formed by trillions of cells. Each one of these cells is a highly complex entity composed of thousands of biomolecules that enable it to carry out its functions. ...
Comprehensive characterization of anthropogenic impacts on Mediterranean intermittent streams using cheminformatics and environmental risk assessment approaches
[eng] Intermittent streams, characterized by variable and discontinuous flow regimes, are becoming increasingly common in the Mediterranean region due to climate change, population growth and land use changes, which further ...
Evaluating harmonized equivalent black carbon mass concentration and source apportionment for air quality assessment
(English) Black carbon (BC), derived from optical absorption measurements, has become an emerging air quality (AQ) metric due to its significant impact on air quality, climate, and public health. However, BC itself cannot ...
Application of BIM visual programming algorithms for infrastructure projects
(English) The BIM digitization has generated a growing automation of traditional AECO project development processes. However, this automation has mainly benefited building projects, which has generated a critical gap in ...
Cognitive training in Multiple Sclerosis: behavioural and neuroimaging evidence from a restorative working memory training.
People with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS) often experience cognitive impairment, particularly affecting working memory (WM) and information processing speed (IPS). This thesis aimed to evaluate the effects of an intensive WM ...
