The role of infrared thermography (IRT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in brown fat evaluation and their application to study the effect of thyroid status on brown fat activi...
Published 2020“…Recent work revealed that the potent thermogenic effect of thyroid hormones is mediated by brown adipose tissue (BAT). Dissecting the physiological mechanisms and metabolic pathways of this process is a very active field of investigation that is interdisciplinary in nature and requires a variety of approaches. …”

Deep generative modeling for image synthesis and manipulation
Published 2024“…Second, we introduce an innovative image inpainting framework that introduces a novel bidirectional autoregressive transformer (BAT) for diverse image inpainting. Third, we design a bi-level feature alignment framework to efficiently and accurately build the dense correspondence between conditional inputs and exemplars, which leads to more accurate style guidance and better preservation of details. …”

Development of viral surveillance for endemic disease, emerging viral characterization and zoonic spill-over spill-back models
Published 2022“…The sequences of SARS-CoV-2 are distinct from SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, showing a closer relation to coronaviruses isolated in bats. A novel method of characterising viruses by studying the distribution pattern of amino acids encoded within 115,582 viral genomes. …”
