Strange and charm mesons at FAIR
We study the properties of strange and charm mesons in hot and dense matter
within a self-consistent coupled-channel approach for the experimental
conditions of density and temperature expected for the CBM experiment at
FAIR/GSI. The in-medium solution at finite temperature accounts for Pauli
blocking effects, mean-field binding of all the baryons involved, and meson
self-energies. We analyze the behaviour in this hot and dense environment of
dynamically-generated baryonic resonances together with the evolution with
density and temperature of the strange and open-charm meson spectral functions.
We test the spectral functions for strange mesons using energy-weighted sum
rules and finally discuss the implications of the properties of charm mesons on
the D_{s0}(2317) and the predicted X(3700) scalar resonances.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, invited talk at XXXI Mazurian Lakes Conference

Chiral dynamics of hadrons in nuclei
In this talk I report on selected topics of hadron modification in the
nuclear medium using the chiral unitary approach to describe the dynamics of
the problems. I shall mention how antikaons, , and are modified in
the medium and will report upon different experiments done or planned to
measure the width in the medium.Comment: 10 pgs, 3 figs. Invited talk in the Workshop on in Medium Hadron

Cardiac Segmentation using Transfer Learning under Respiratory Motion Artifacts
Methods that are resilient to artifacts in the cardiac magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) while performing ventricle segmentation, are crucial for ensuring
quality in structural and functional analysis of those tissues. While there has
been significant efforts on improving the quality of the algorithms, few works
have tackled the harm that the artifacts generate in the predictions. In this
work, we study fine tuning of pretrained networks to improve the resilience of
previous methods to these artifacts. In our proposed method, we adopted the
extensive usage of data augmentations that mimic those artifacts. The results
significantly improved the baseline segmentations (up to 0.06 Dice score, and
4mm Hausdorff distance improvement).Comment: accepted for the STACOM2022 workshop @ MICCAI202
