Exposição Internacional de Artes Decorativas e Industriais Modernas: a arquitectura anti-cúbica e cinemática de Mallet-Stevens

A Exposição Internacional de Artes Decorativas e Industriais Modernas realizada em Paris consagra, em primeiro lugar, a chamada Art Déco enquanto fórmula alternativa ao pastiche e à Arte Nova. Por outro lado, constituiu-se como palco de apresentação de pavilhões e interiores projectados pelas vanguardas que visavam não apenas transformações ao nível da linguagem e tipologia de ornamento mas ainda a promoção de valores como a funcionalidade e racionalidade, o impulsionar de mudanças sociais e novos modos de vivência do espaço. Sabemos que uma Exposição internacional, autêntico cenário paralelo à cidade real, se constitui como reflexo da sua época e da sociedade que a promove. Contudo, também sabemos que esta pode vincular visões utópicas do mundo. Estes dois pressupostos são observáveis no caso da Exposição de 1925, cuja predominância do Art Déco reflecte uma sociedade consumista, em oposição a uma nova concepção do mundo, anunciada por correntes como o De Stijl, Construtivismo, Purismo e Funcionalismo. Destacamos o progressismo do arquitecto francês Robert Mallet-Stevens que envolveu na sua equipa de trabalho interdisciplinar artistas como os irmãos Martel, Francis Jourdain ou Pierre Chareau. Na sequência de uma visão holística da feira, pretende-se com o presente artigo analisar duas arquitecturas efémeras da sua autoria e as utopias a elas vinculadas.
Electric axle for hybrid / electric commercial vehicles

Silex’s goal with the project is to increase its turnover, profit and size by innovation, in order to become a medium size
enterprise. During the project an 8,5 -9 tons axle will be developed with integrated in-wheel electric motors, for electric/hybrid
commercial vehicles (city buses, small trucks distributing products and fork lifts). Currently there are no commercially
available axles designed for these vehicles, which is the novelty of the project. Vehicles using available axles, designed for
combustion engines are heavier; consume more energy then necessary and contain components (propeller shaft,
differential), which can be omitted in another architecture. Using the in-wheel motors ABS, ASR, retarder functions will be
solved electronically. The axle will be 30% lighter then available ones, reducing vehicle’s energy consumption by 6-8%.
Patent search has shown that the key IPs of the project are currently not patented. Technical goal of the project is to
develop, test and verify the axle and build it into a test vehicle to start field tests. Systems, based on the new axle will be
2-2500 € cheaper then existing solutions. Lower price plus energy saving, i.e. lower operating costs are the two key sales
arguments, which meet market demands. According to our preliminary market analyses, assuming 10% market share in the
3 market segments mentioned above, 1500-2000 axles can be sold p.a., which means 15-20 million € turnover and 2,5 – 3,5
million € profit. In Phase 1 a detailed Feasibility study will be elaborated, including technical details, project schedule, market
analyses and strategy in order to co-fund Phase 2, what we estimate to 650-700 k€ as total project cost. Feasibility study will
conclude to a business plan for different market scenarios. Investment will be evaluated by payback time and ROI. Business
plan will comply with accounting standards. The project results a small contribution to increase energy efficiency and
improve European competitiveness.
Microbial transglutaminase and its application in the food industry. A review

The extremely high costs of manufacturing transglutaminase from animal origin (EC 2.3.2.13) have prompted scientists to search for new sources of this enzyme. Interdisciplinary efforts have been aimed at producing enzymes synthesised by microorganisms which may have a wider scope of use. Transglutaminase is an enzyme that catalyses the formation of isopeptide bonds between proteins. Its cross-linking property is widely used in various processes: to manufacture cheese and other dairy products, in meat processing, to produce edible films and to manufacture bakery products. Transglutaminase has considerable potential to improve the firmness, viscosity, elasticity and water-binding capacity of food products. In 1989, microbial transglutaminase was isolated from Streptoverticillium sp. Its characterisation indicated that this isoform could be extremely useful as a biotechnological tool in the food industry. Currently, enzymatic preparations are used in almost all industrial branches because of their wide variety and low costs associated with their biotechnical production processes. This paper presents an overview of the literature addressing the characteristics and applications of transglutaminase.
Increasedpfmdr1copy number inPlasmodium falciparumisolates from Suriname

Amplification of the pfmdr1 gene is associated with clinical failures and reduced in vivo and in vitro sensitivity to both mefloquine and artemether-lumefantrine in South-East Asia. Several African countries have reported the absence or very low prevalence of increased copy number, whilst South American reports are limited to Peru without and Venezuela with increased pfmdr1 multiplication. The relative pfmdr1 copy numbers were assessed in 68 isolates from Suriname collected from different endemic villages (2005) and from mining areas (2009). 11% of the isolates harbour multiple copies of the pfmdr1 gene. Isolates originating from mining areas do not yet display a higher tendency for increased copy number and no significant differences could be registered within a time span of 4 years, but the mere presence of increased copy number warrants caution and should be considered as an early warning sign for emerging drug resistance in Suriname and South America.
IMPROVEMENTS IN STRINGED MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS

A stringed musical instrument is characterised by having a neck (19) and headstock (21) each manufactured as separate items and including means (31, 33) for securably engaging one with the other to thereby form a neck and headstock assembly.
Shapes and meaning. the matt-painted pottery of the north-lucanian district: culture, identity, symbols and gender. an interdisciplinary study of a local community in southern italy.

What were the communication systems of ancient societies without writing? Is it possible to use the decorations and symbols painted on the vases like a new Rosetta Stone? Is it possible to reconstruct the language of archaic communities that have disappeared? Objects convey ideas, memories and messages, and the ceramic decorations are certainly one of these vectors, of conservation but also dissemination of identity and cultural messages. Although it has all the potential to represent a privileged means of knowledge, most of its meanings still elude us. 
The objective of project SandMan (Shapes and Meaning) is to understand the ways of communication between the archaic communities of southern Italy, free of conventional forms of writing, between the end of Iron Age and the Archaic Period (mid-7th/mid-5th cent. BC). 
To achieve this goal, the project will use three different approaches: semiotic, archaeometric, and typological. The research aims to conduct a holistic, thus innovative, study of the symbols of ceramics in order to understand the meanings of this symbolic ""lexicon"", better understand how they were important for gender identification/distinction, how they were used as a way to communicate and how that knowledge was passed on to others. SandMan also proposes a systematic study of the matt-painted vases of southern Italy (to create a precise and reliable typology) and a chemical-physical analyzes, will investigate the fabric of vases with matt-painted decorations for to create a reference database of local workshops. 
In general, the studies have always focused on Greek (or Greek-colonial) objects present in the indigenous contexts, relegating the discovery of indigenous ceramics to a secondary position. This research, instead, using a post-colonial approach, will shift the perspective onto the indigenous material culture, for the understanding of certain bidirectional dynamics of exchange and acculturation between Locals and the ""Others"".
MARCAS DA MEMÓRIA: TRAJETÓRIA DE UMA PESSOA COM DEFICIÊNCIA AUDITIVA EM UM CURSO DE MEDICINA

Este artigo busca apresentar a narrativa de uma médica neurologista com deficiência auditiva em sua trajetória num curso de graduação em Medicina, no Brasil. A pesquisa é exploratória e de abordagem qualitativa. Em razão da Covid-19 e das medidas de distanciamento social a entrevista ocorreu no sistema de perguntas-respostas via e-mail. Os resultados foram avaliados utilizando a hermenêutica interpretativa de Ricouer e a análise de conteúdo de Bardin. Destacou-se a pouca empatia dos professores-médicos, insensibilidade da instituição de ensino com o processo de inclusão e o maior grau de exigência a que a entrevistada esteve submetida em função de sua deficiência. Conclui-se pela importância de mais trabalhos sustentados nas histórias de vida de pessoas com deficiência. Nesse aspecto, a memória deve ser entendida como elemento capaz de captar subjetividades, constituindo-se num processo contra-hegemônico importante na discussão das vulnerabilidades.
The coupled dynamics of southern ocean climate change

As a major sink of both heat and carbon dioxide, the Southern Ocean plays a crucial role in the trajectory of global climate change. However, Southern Ocean climate is highly complex and perturbed by both rising greenhouse gas concentrations and ozone depletion. Contemporary climate models vary greatly in their representations of the current and future climate of the Southern Ocean, limiting our ability to produce reliable climate predictions. To address this issue, this proposal takes a novel interdisciplinary approach, integrating stratosphere-troposphere-ocean-sea ice interactions. It aims to answer the following questions: (1) What mechanisms control the time-dependent coupled response of the Southern Ocean to anthropogenic forcing? (2) How do uncertainties in the response depend on models’ representation of key physical processes? (3) How far can observational estimates reduce model uncertainties in SO climate projections?

The project will make use of a range of newly-available observations of the Southern Ocean, as well as perform a suite of simulations with the state-of-the-art UK Earth System Model (UKESM). Close links will be maintained with modelling groups to ensure that the results of this project feed into the development of the next generation of climate models. This action will also include knowledge transfer between the atmospheric science and oceanography communities, as well as the generation of a publicly available ensemble of “Climate Response Function” simulations, which will be a vital resource for the community. 

This fellowship will allow the Researcher to gain important new knowledge in both oceanic and atmospheric dynamics by working with world-leading experts in these fields. It will provide skills in the use of state-of-the-art UK and European climate models and spur multiple new research opportunities, enabling the Researcher to stay at the forefront of climate research and acting as a stepping stone towards a leadership position.
O papel de fatores naturais e antrópicos na variabilidade da perda de solos no estado de Goiás entre 1985 e 2018

A perda de solos depende de fatores naturais e antrópicos com elevada variabilidade espacial e temporal que podem ser inferidos por modelos de predição como a Equação Universal de Perda de Solos Revisada (EUPS-M). Nesse sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a distribuição e a variação espaço-temporais das perdas de solo no estado de Goiás para os anos de 1985, 2000 e 2018, a partir da aplicação da EUPS-M, tendo a bacia hidrográfica como unidade de análise multiescalar. Os resultados demonstram que, em geral, há o aumento na perda média de solos no estado entre os anos observados, sendo que, em 1985 a média foi 2,4 ton.ha-1.ano-1, crescendo para 10,8 ton.ha-1.ano-1 no ano de 2000 e 11,56 ton.ha-1.ano-1 em 2018. As regiões hidrográficas do Tocantins e do Paraná são as que apresentam maiores perdas. Para além do controle geral da expansão da conversão dos Cerrados, o estado de Goiás apresenta dois padrões espaciais de perda de solos, um no qual predomina o controle dos fatores naturais, ligados aos aspectos morfogenéticos com forte influência do fator topográfico e o outro da erosividade das chuvas, espacializadas em áreas como o “front” da cuesta Caiapó, a Serra Dourada e a Serra dos Pireneus. Esses dois fatores, quando associados definem áreas sensíveis, com as maiores perdas de solo do estado de Goiás.
Research and innovation strategy for the civis alliance

RIS4CIVIS is proposed by the CIVIS European University Alliance members: Universities from eight countries (BE DE EL ES FR IT RO SE), led by Aix-Marseille Université. In line with the Horizon2020 Work Programme objective to contribute to European Universities’ Research & Innovation (R&I) dimension, RIS4CIVIS will enable (A) the CIVIS Alliance and (B) European universities to maximise their potential to address 21st Century challenges through world-class R&I.
For CIVIS to achieve this objective, we will develop an integrated, long-term R&I Strategy, based on our complementary strengths, but also addressing obstacles that stand in the way of deeper R&I cooperation in the following six fundamental areas: 1/ a Common R&I Strategy; 2/ Sharing infrastructures; 3/ Reinforcing Academia-Business R&I Cooperation; 4/ Strengthening Human Capital; 5/ Mainstreaming Open Science; 6/Embedding Citizens and Society.
For each of these areas, we will: 
- Through Benchmarking, establish the current situation across our Alliance and define the ideal endpoint;
- Through Consensus-Building, identify Roadmaps to reach these endpoints and to remove legal, regulatory, financial or other barriers in the short-, medium- and long-term: where the removal of barriers is not in our hands, develop Recommendations to national and European policy-makers on the way forward;
- Through Case Studies, start implementing our Roadmaps, thereby testing and validating them.
The knowledge gained in each of these activities, across all six areas, will inform our development of the CIVIS Research & Innovation Strategy. For other European universities, we will synthesise our six Roadmaps, as well as the benchmarking, consensus-building and case studies that went into them, into a CIVIS Institutional Transformation Model to serve as a source of inspiration for other European Universities wishing to engage in R&I cooperation as well as for the European Commission in designing its future programmes and policies.

Leadership, followers' mental health and job performance in organizations: A comprehensive meta-analysis from an occupational health perspective

Summary
The present meta-analysis investigates the associations between leadership, followers' mental health, and job performance by taking into account different groups of leadership constructs including transformational leadership, relations-oriented leadership, task-oriented leadership, destructive leadership, and leader–member exchange. Six categories of mental health-related outcomes are considered representing both negative and positive mental health states of followers, namely, affective symptoms, burnout, stress, well-being, psychological functioning, and health complaints. Meta-analytic models are used to estimate the association between these categories of leadership and mental health. Our results reveal that transformational leadership, a high quality of relations-oriented and task-oriented leadership behavior, as well as a high quality of leader–follower interaction are positively associated with mental health. In contrast, destructive leadership is strongly negatively associated with mental health. In addition, the mediation effects of leadership on job performance via mental health are estimated. Results partially support the mediating role of mental health concerning the relationship between leadership and job performance. Our results emphasize the importance of leadership as an occupational health factor, and they may serve as basis for the planning and designing of occupational health policies and interventions despite existing research limitations.

Fluorinated Azobenzenes for Shape-Persistent Liquid Crystal Polymer Networks

Liquid crystal polymer networks respond with an anisotropic deformation to a range of external stimuli. When doped with molecular photoswitches, these materials undergo complex shape modifications under illumination. As the deformations are reversed when irradiation stops, applications where the activated shape is required to have thermal stability have been precluded. Previous attempts to incorporate molecular switches into thermally stable photoisomers were unsuccessful at photogenerating macroscopic shapes that are retained over time. Herein, we show that to preserve photoactivated molecular deformation on the macroscopic scale, it is important not only to engineer the thermal stability of the photoswitch but also to adjust the cross-linking density in the polymer network and to optimize the molecular orientations in the material. Our strategy resulted in materials containing fluorinated azobenzenes that retain their photochemical shape for more than eight days, which constitutes the first demonstration of long-lived photomechanical deformation in liquid-crystal polymer networks.
DURABLE CHARGED PARTICLE COATINGS AND MATERIALS

This invention concerns coatings having high surface area materials and at least one metal ion adsorbed onto the high surface area material as well as substrates having the coating and methods of applying the coating. The substrates may be films, woven fabrics or may be nonwoven fabrics. The coatings have good odor and/or gas absorbing capabilities. Nonwoven fabrics include tissues, towels, coform materials, bonded carded webs, spunbond fabrics and so forth. The substrates may be made into storage and packaging material to reduce odor and retard the ripening of fruit. The substrates may be used in personal care products, to produce clothing for military and civilian applications and many other applications.
Evolution of pro- and eukaryotic commensals within the human gut

The EPYC project will characterize the evolution of long-term human associated eukaryotes and prokaryotes, using colonization patterns in 3 human generations.

The gut microbiome is important for human health, supporting nutrition, pathogen defence and immune homeostasis, with more than 200 species inhabiting each human gut. In recent years metagenomics led to notable breakthroughs in describing this microbial diversity, yet 50-90% of species are typically present at too low abundance to be genome or strain resolved. Thus, most gut microbiome studies focused to date on dominant bacteria and very little is known of the highly diverse, yet low abundance, pro- and eukaryotes (elusive microbes).  Importantly, elusive microbes are an inherent part of ecosystem successions persisting at different ages of the host. I propose that niche adaptation and persistence are key indicators of a taxa’s importance to the gut ecosystem and host health. I will determine which microbes persist for years within a human, or even a family for several generations. This should be reflected in microbial genetic adaption, also indicating which genes are likely important to successfully colonize the human gut. 

I hypothesize that low abundance pro- and eukaryotes are adapted to persist for multiple generations in the human host, indicating their importance, despite being largely ignored so far.

To investigate this knowledge gap in EPYC, I will
(O1) Enable high-precision metagenomics of elusive microbes 
(O2) Estimate pro- and eukaryotic strain persistence across three human generations
(O3) Describe the microbial genetics of gastrointestinal persistence

EPYC will develop the next-generation of high-resolution metagenomics of an extended taxonomic range, enabling me to research microbial evolution in the human gut.
Negozi in serie nell’Italia tra le due guerre. Lagomarsino e l’architettura pubblicitaria

La ditta milanese Lagomarsino è stata una delle più importanti produttrici di macchine calcolatrici, addizionatrici e contabili. Nell’ambito di una vera e propria strategia di comunicazione per la vendita, all’inizio degli anni Quaranta l’azienda affidò la progettazione dei suoi negozi in tutta Italia ad Angelo Bianchetti e a Cesare Pea. Grazie all’esperienza acquisita nel campo dell’architettura pubblicitaria, i due architetti svolsero il compito adottando un riconoscibile codi-ce comunicativo e utilizzando elementi plastici e grafici, molto più simili a installazioni temporanee che a tradizionali arredamenti commerciali. Basato su documenti inediti e fonti a stampa poco note, il saggio prende in esame il caso Lagomarsino, confrontandone le strategie comunicative con quelle adottate nei negozi del suo più celebre competitor, la Olivetti, alla luce dei più generali rapporti tra architettura, design, arte e pubblicità, caratterizzanti il rinnovamento dell’estetica dei luoghi per la vendita in Italia tra le due guerre. The Milanese firm Lagomarsino was one of the most important manufacturers of calculating, adding and accounting machines. In the early 1940s, as part of a marketing communication strategy, the company entrusted the design of its stores in Italy to Angelo Bianchetti and Cesare Pea, who had gained experience with advertising architecture. The two architects adopted a recognizable style, using plastic and graphic elements that were much more frequently used in temporary installa-tions than in traditional store fittings. Using unpublished documents and little-known print sources, this essay discusses the Lagomarsino case, comparing its communication strategies to those employed in the stores of its renowned competitor, Olivetti. The analysis will be carried out in light of the relationship between architecture, design, art and advertisement, which characterize the new store aesthetics in Italy between the two wars.
