Neurons involved in grasp preparation with hand and mouth were previously recorded the premotor cortex of monkey. The aim present kinematic study was to determine whether a unique planning underlies act grasping humans as well. In set four experiments, healthy subjects reached grasped an object different size while opening ( experiments 1 3), or extending other forearm experiment 4), fingers 5). subsequent three mouth, right 6–8). initial kinematics finger opening, but not extension,...
Aspirin has been known for a long time and currently stays as cornerstone of antithrombotic therapy in cardiovascular disease. In patients with either acute or chronic coronary syndromes undergoing percutaneous intervention aspirin is mandatory dual antiplatelet regimen prevention stent thrombosis and/or new ischaemic events. also first-option after an aortic prosthetic valve replacement occasionally required addition to oral anticoagulants implantation mechanical valve. Presumed...
Several design studies have looked at the potential of using narratives to enrich process or create more engaging experiences with designed objects. However, concept narrative is still fuzzy and open interpretations, due its use meaning in different disciplines approaches. In order deepen knowledge design, this paper presents three categorizations that survey what, where why respectively. First, it discusses five definitions based on theory. Secondly, proposes a typology classifies...
We evaluated the relationship between motor and neuropsychological deficits in subjects affected by amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) early Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Kinematics of goal‐directed movement aMCI AD were compared to those age‐matched control subjects. showed a slowing down performance controls. No relationships found cognitive performances both aMCI. Our results suggest that different behaviour cannot be related memory deficits, probably reflecting initial degeneration...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide assessment guidelines which help implement research‐based education in science and technology areas, would benefit from the quality type within subject area. Design/methodology/approach This a reflection on, analysis of, different aspects assessment. From one side, it looks at general, society large. Findings Assessment could be improved field order contribute learning process, rather than merely measure categorise student's performance after...
Dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy is a hereditary neurodegenerative disease prevalently reported in Japan but rare Caucasians. The objective of this study was to reconstruct the pedigree Italian dentatorubral-pallidoluysian familial cases describing their clinical features.We investigated 6 apparently unrelated families comprising total 51 affected individuals: 13 patients were clinically examined, and for 38 data collected from sources. diagnosis genetically confirmed 18 patients....
This is a position paper towards the establishment of research network to address impact tacit experiential knowledge, emotion, and cultural perspective on designer’s decision-making during design process. With this network, we are aiming start focused discussion across geographies cultures regarding role designers’ emotions within their own The function foreground emotional domain practice examine knowledge in decision-making. sets up basis context discussion, exploring three key areas be...
We explore the role that interaction with products and services can play in narratives we develop about ourselves. propose a four-level model, which seeks to explain this use it as basis for analyzing eight immersion studies. In each, investigate shaping narratives, turn reflect our self-identity. also look at archetypes – various ideals have ourselves how alignment of these enhances wellbeing. The model offers potential link narrative design features identify new market opportunities....
We present critical reflections from our teaching and learning, design research knowledge exchange practices to posit a pedagogy of service design. A salient characteristic this is that we involve cohorts postgraduate students in complex multi-stakeholder projects. created the Service Futures Lab provide infrastructure for these When collaborates with courses across university it bridges requirements student curriculum collaborators, aligning own agendas interests. outline how learning by...
This practice-led investigation evaluates three generative design tools for active and tacit student engagement with postgraduate Service Design students, their impact on the students’ approach to complex projects. In education have a robust pedagogical role efficient knowledge creation engagement, yet are still under-explored academically.The Learn ’n’ link method delineates learning as an interactive dialogic practice creative idea conceptualisation. The Zine Method is visual ethnography...
The narratives that we have about our lives can affect wellbeing. Products and services own or use play a role in these (Jordan, Bardill, Herd Grimaldi, 2020) – the car says "I am success", toy good parent" customer-care lets me know not important.” In an exploratory study, 41 undergraduate students described experiences with two different products one enabled failed to enable desired narrative. These 82 case studies were analysed explore concepts relevant narrative context of product...
Not only is using a product an experience, it interaction and narrative in nature. This work progress paper describes the theory background for this statement, particular schemata concepts of agency, tellability narrativity, then methods that are being used project to analyse film narratives apply these design tellable physical products.
Given that all design is narrative in some way, this paper describes a toolkit to help designers and students identify, analyse, articulate manipulate the elements are present within work. It significant for be able talk about artefacts, looking at inherent process or user experience of artefact can what plan how it interpreted. Narrative not an easy concept define; studied by different fields, defined differently each narratology school. This provides language narratives work design. The...
