Memory, Belonging and Orality" investigated the educational practices of the two formal Masters of the Boi de Pindaré: Master Castro and Marter João do Sá Viana told through their identity narratives and of the subjects who participate.The trajectories of the masters were studied from comings and goings, in a process of ruptures, sutures that is natural in the identity of the human being.The importance of these Masters cannot be highlighted as non-formal educators of the popular culure of Maranhão because it is through their teaching that the elements contained in the tradition of Bumba meu boi of Maranhão are propagated, which were full of meanings and full of symbologies and as memories and knowledge revealed a network of knowledge built and reconstructed, enabling, an attentive relationship and exchange of knowledge through orality and pedagogical practices that arouse provocations and dialogism.In this context, the female role is studied through the empowerment of women who make the Boi de Pindaré, recognizing their leadership within the nuclei that act and the visibility of their actions as propagators of tradition.Non-formal teaching is carried out in rehearsals, during presentations and mainly in the educational space at headquarters, which is open to the entire community as a social and cultural place for coexistence, teaching and learning.Documentary analysis and oral history were used as a methodology, based on interviews with masters and players of the Ox of Pindaré.It is concluded that these singing Masters play an important role as non-formal educators of Maranhão popular culture, because it is throung their teachings that the knowledge, contained in the tradition of Bumba my ox of Maranhão is propagated, which has popular elements full of meanings and full of symbologies and memories and Knowledge.The research revealed a network of reconstructed knowledge, which enable connections and exchange of knowledge PUC-Rio -Certificação Digital Nº 1812187/CA through orality and pedagogical practices that arouse provocations and diaologism.
Prevalence and Risk Factors of Speech and Language Delay in Children Less Than Three Years of Age

Background: There is a large amount of data on the prevalence and risk factors of speech and language delay from the West, but relatively scanty data from India. Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and risk factors of speech and language delay in children less than three years old, using the Langauge Evaluation Scale Trivandrum (LEST 0-3). Materials and Methods: A descriptive, cross sectional study was conducted in the under-five clinic of our institute, on a sample of 200 children, less than three years old. Language was assessed using Language Evaluation Scale Trivandrum (LEST 0-3) and development in other domains was assessed using the Trivandrum Development Screening Chart (TDSC). The Home Screening Questionnaire (HSQ) was used to assess the home environment. Various biological and environmental risk factors were analyzed. Results: The prevalence of speech and language delay was found to be 27%. In univariate analysis, parameters found to be significantly associated with speech and language delay were male gender, poor home environment (score ≤ 19 in the Home Screening Questionnaire) and family history of speech and language delay. In multivariate analysis, poor home environment (CI = 0.20 - 0.80, P = 0.01) and positive family history (CI = 0.09 - 0.72, P = 0.01) were significant risk factors. There was a significant association between delay in TDSC and speech delay. However, TDSC alone had a low sensitivity of 33% in detecting speech and language delay. Conclusions: Prevalence of speech and language delay is high (27%) in children less than three years of age attending the Under-Five clinic for at-risk children. Negative home environment and family history of speech and language disorders are significant risk factors for speech and language delay. The strong association of speech delay with delay in TDSC reemphasizes the need for a complete developmental assessment in any child with speech delay. The TDCS alone fails to detect significant number of cases of speech delay, showing the need to perform a separate speech screening test.
Monitoring and Minimisation of Traffic-Induced Noise and Air Pollution Along Major Alpine Transport Routes

A network of regional experts aims at the integrated use of advanced science-based methods to monitor, assess, and predict air pollution and noise and their impact on the environment, quality of life and health along major transport routes. These methods are adapted to the Alpine topography and its specific meteorological phenomena which often amplify the levels of concentration and noise. The purpose of the project is to promote these methods to regional and local authorities, to supplement standard methods towards more reliable predictions and scenario assessments, to quantify the tolerable limits of emissions if given air quality and noise standards are met, and to assess the environmental impact of traffic flow changes due to regulations, new infrastructure, or modal shifts. The project will enhance the understanding of local people and their political/societal representatives to the interdependency between natural processes and air quality and noise in the sensitive Alpine area.
Electrochemical and electrogravimetric behaviors of conducting polymer. Theoretical aspects and application to co-polymer films based on juglone

Redox mechanisms of conducting polymers are not yet fully understood. Attractive analytical tools and pertinent models are necessary to achieve this goal. In this paper, numerical simulations based on a theory dealing with ions transfer through electroactive film/electrolyte interface was developed to predict the behavior of a conducting polymer called poly(JUG-co-JUGA). The main advantage of this approach is that it can be applied for any polymer assuming a mixed conducting material and a thin enough film neglecting the transport effect. It is the first time where the same model allows both classical cyclic electrogravimetry (current and mass over a potential scan) and ac-electrogravimetry (electrochemical impedance and mass/potential transfer functions) to be estimated theoretically. Moreover and to our knowledge the electrochemical behavior of poly(JUG-co-JUGA) was examined through these techniques for the first time. It is shown herein that the cation transfer is preponderant but the free solvent motion must be taken into account. This effect is not detected by classical electrochemical measurements but only by combining electrochemical characterization to gravimetric measurements.
Secure over-the-air firmware updating for automotive electronic control units

This work presents secure over-the-air firmware updating that brings a homogenized updating process across OEMs, suppliers and sub-tiers, removing at the same time the costs for individual security precautions and cryptographic countermeasures for each individual component or sub-system. The objective is to overcome all attacks to the servers, to the networks and to the diverse electronic control units (ECUs) in modern vehicles. The proposed herein secure over-the-air firmware updating, as applied in firmware updating for vehicles, employs separation of roles, e.g., the manager server employs firmware versioning and entitlements for each vehicle and its corresponding ECUs and dependency resolution on behalf of vehicles; In a firmware server, each ECU firmware is associated with metadata that are signed and uploaded by the OEM and/or its suppliers, while a timestamp server on demand records and signs the more recent time for ECUs firmware. An STM32F7xx-based prototype demonstrates a real vehicle case.
Noč ima svojo moč, european researchers’ night (night)

Noč ima svojo moč [The Night has it might] (NOCMOC) [NIGHTMIGHT] project combines a strong awareness campaign embedding a major media campaign and a citizen science project with activities spread all over Slovenia in the two Researchers nights in 2018 and 2019. 

The core objectives of the NOCMOC project is to raise awareness about the research and its benefits, overcome stereotypes, stimulate curiosity all over Slovenia and excite youngsters to take up the research careers.

The awareness campaign will comprise national TV broadcasts, radio broadcasts, press presence and a social media campaign, reaching 100.000 people. Moreover, as a citizen science project, over 500 seeds will be sown all over Slovenia by citizens and will be the basis for collaboratiovecollaborative research: comparing growth, plants characteristics and the physical and chemical properties of Slovenian autochthonous species. We expect seeds to grow throughout the citizens science project in the awareness campaign and to bloom on the Researchers’ night.

The NIGHT activities will take place in 17 cities across Slovenia and will bring together 27 research-related institutions to raise awareness about research and innovation, its social and economic benefits as well as its variety of careers. Over 40.000 visitors from different target groups will take part in the NIGHT activities spread all over Slovenia. Activities will combine science festivals on the main square of four cities, research days in 6 primary and secondary schools, over 30 lectures and workshops in public spaces such as libraries, retirement homes and museums, open doors at the research institutions, science centre and cultural institutions.
First principles based process concepts for complex mixtures conversion

Europe is the second largest global producer of hydrocarbon products. Unavoidably, significant greenhouse gas emissions occur due to the present process implementations. A proper simulation of these processes is crucial to better understand them and, hence, to propose solutions for the present challenges in CO2 emissions abatement. The PR1ME simulation framework for chemical process will combine the fundamental understanding of the occurring reactions at the microkinetic level with molecular reconstruction techniques allowing to bridge the gap between global properties and detailed composition of the complex streams involved. By doing so more adequate simulations of chemical process performance are obtained than what is possible with conventional process simulation software essentially relying on global kinetics between groups of molecules (also denoted as lumps). Given the fundamental nature of the kinetics and reconstruction module in the framework, its applicability spans already a wide range of operating conditions and feed compositions. In the course of the PR1ME project, starting from conventional hydrocarbons as converted in Crude Oil To Chemicals (COTC) processes, the necessary innovation will be embedded in the modules to be applicable too within the circular economy scenario and be capable to simulate the behavior of renewables and plastics derived oils. The ultimate target of PR1ME is to develop patentable process configurations in the area of chemicals production from alternative feeds and/or to license (parts of) the software framework.
Job Satisfaction and Gender in the APS: Who’d Want to be a Male?

This article uses the 2008 State of the Service survey data to compare the job satisfaction and attitudes toward work of men and women in the Australian Public Service (APS). It shows that up to and including Executive Level (EL) women are significantly more positive than men about their work and the organisation. At Senior Executive Service (SES) level men are more satisfied. The article also looks at the predictors of job satisfaction separately for men and women at each level, and finds that career progression, support for work-life balance, agency leadership, role clarity and authority and good immediate management are significant contributors for most employees. It suggests that the APS use these findings to identify those areas which need to be developed in order to attract men, and increase the job satisfaction of existing male staff at Executive Level and below.
Characterization of an Electromagnetic Vibration Isolator

A novel vibration isolator is constructed by connecting a mechanical spring in parallel with a magnetic spring in order to achieve the property of high-static-low-dynamic stiffness (HSLDS). The HSLDS property of the isolator can be tuned off-line or on-line. This study focuses on the characterization of the isolator using a finite element based package. Firstly using the single physics solver, the stiffness behaviours of the mechanical and magnetic springs are determined, respectively. Then using the weakly coupled multi-physics method, the stiffness behaviours of the passive isolator and the semi-active isolator are investigated, respectively. With the found stiffness models, a nonlinear differential equation governing the dynamics of the isolator is solved using the time-dependent solver. The displacement transmissibility ratios of the isolator are obtained. The study confirms that the isolation region of the isolator can be widened through off-line or on-line tuning.
The return of the heirs

This project aims at carrying out a comparative, multi-generational and interdisciplinary analysis of European emigrants’ descendants’ “return” from Chile to Spain and Italy. Italian and Spanish legislation and return programmes give a preferential right to entry and to nationality acquisition to foreign citizens of emigrant descent. These legal frameworks generate massive migrations that can be called the “return of the heirs” - as those who “come back” have inherited a privileged legal status, based on the “legal myth” of ethnically motivated return migration. Almost invisible in research and in the public sphere, these migrations raise urgent issues regarding European identity, citizenship, belonging and family heritage. Indeed, an unquestioned gap between the right to enter and the right to return to European countries informs present-day policies, as more and more countries base their nationality laws on jus sanguinis, giving family inheritance a central role in access to citizenship rights.
This programme aims to answer this research question: how is belonging transmitted and re-created in families of emigrant descent and how is it linked to the changing nationality and return laws of the countries their ancestors came from? Its objective is to identify and compare different patterns of belonging production and transmission in families of emigrant descent, with regard to gender, nationhood, ethnicity, regional identity and law. To pursue this goal, the research will be based on a six months ethnographic regional fieldwork in Chile, Italy and Spain and on a qualitative analysis of data conducted with an interdisciplinary approach.
The research project will be carried out at the Dipartimento Culture, Politica e Società of UniTo, an interdisciplinary department which will offer me training on the transversal themes on which I need to enhance my skills and will help me strengthen my competencies in dissemination and communication of research to different publics.

Deciphering the negr1 interacting network in physiological conditions and in psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders.

There are no therapies for the core symptoms of most psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. Compelling evidence indicates that most of these disorders feature aberrant neuronal connectivity. Importantly, the neuronal growth regulator 1 (Negr1) is associated with neuronal connectivity and diverse brain disorders. Thus, a better understanding of how Negr1 exerts its functions may reveal general principles underlying these pathological conditions. 

Previous results show that Negr1 does not operate as single entity. Negr1 functions by physically interacting with other proteins. In this context, PSYNegrT will investigate the hypothesis that the brain’s Negr1 interacting-protein network is remodeled in psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. The fellow will investigate the role of specific Negr1 complexes in diverse brain disorders and their possible exploitation as drug targets. To this aim, he will identify and characterize the brain’s Negr1 interacting-protein networks by proteomic, biochemistry, and molecular biology studies. Computational and mutagenesis studies will reveal structural features for molecular interactions at the interface between Negr1 and selected partner proteins. This project will thus: i) produce the first exhaustive list of cerebral Negr1-interacting proteins in physiological conditions ii) identify the protein-protein interactions involved in Negr1-mediated pathological effects.

With PSYNegrT, the fellow will increase his research skills and expertise in molecular biology and modeling, thus flourishing into an independent group leader. The project will be a breakthrough in our understanding of the causes of diverse brain disorders, and it will reveal certain general principles underlying their pathophysiology. This will facilitate structure-based efforts to design small molecules, peptides, or nanobodies to target Negr1-mediated protein-protein interactions involved in these disorders.
