Nanotechnology mutual learning action plan for transparent and responsible understanding of science and technology

Innovative solutions to society’s challenges need to be developed with the involvement of all stakeholders through a dynamic, iterative, mutually responsible process. To achieve this, greater understanding of required stakeholder interactions as well as their needs and concerns is required. Societal engagement in nanotechnology has been tackled previously. However, prior learning needs to be brought together and built on by addressing shortcomings identified, particularly putting in place a sustainable means for this to continue.
NANO2TRUST will establish a European-wide sustainable platform for mutual learning and informed dialogue among all stakeholders (researchers including social sciences and humanities, industry/ business, the public including Civil Society Organisations and the media, as well as policy-makers and research funders) to improve transparency and societal engagement in responsible nanotechnology.
Engaged through European-wide initiatives, as well as via an online platform making full use of current communication technologies, stakeholders will exchange best practice (e.g. from ObservatoryNano, NanoOpinion, NanoEIS and Nanodiode, among others). They will also develop their understanding of responsible research and innovation (RRI) and its tools (e.g. based on EthicSchool and RRI Tools).
Based on this, through national and EU level dialogue, stakeholders will develop an action plan (MLAP) with a shared vision on existing and potential future benefits and risks of advancing nanotechnology including ways to support RRI along the value chain. Systemic engagement of policy-makers and relevant communities will facilitate “buy-in” through co-development of roadmaps to drive future Joint Stakeholder Undertakings, such as the Nanofutures ETP. This will result in a permanent platform for future development of trust, awareness and inclusion, providing guidance on societal needs and concerns, and fuelling co-innovation that benefits society as a whole.
3D level set methods for evolving fronts on tetrahedral meshes with adaptive mesh refinement

The level set method is commonly used to model dynamically evolving fronts and interfaces. In this work, we present new methods for evolving fronts with a specified velocity field or in the surface normal direction on 3D unstructured tetrahedral meshes with adaptive mesh refinement (AMR). The level set field is located at the nodes of the tetrahedral cells and is evolved using new upwind discretizations of HamiltonJacobi equations combined with a RungeKutta method for temporal integration. The level set field is periodically reinitialized to a signed distance function using an iterative approach with a new upwind gradient. The details of these level set and reinitialization methods are discussed. Results from a range of numerical test problems are presented.
[Tourism, imported parasitic diseases, and their prevention].

The paper gives the results of observations of 1558 patients before and after tourist travels to tropical countries and 368 individuals visiting the north areas of the Russian Federation. Different conditions (malaria, amebiasis, leishmaniasis, intestinal and tissue helminthiasis, insect bites, venomous fish pricks, medusa burn, tick bites, etc.) were found in 402 persons. Prophylactic immunization included vaccination against hepatitis A and B viruses, meningitis, typhus, yellow fever, tick-borne encephalitis in more than 2500 patients (not including influenza vaccination in the epidemic season). The performed observations reinforce the statement that imported pathology is urgent to Russia and suggest that it is necessary to develop this section of medicine and to set up a network of health care facilities with a necessary therapeutic and diagnostic base to render skilled care to tourists. It is essential to improve medical staff training in travel medicine.
The Asian Grocery Store-Based Cancer Education Program: Creating New Education Modules

Operating since 1994, the UCSD Moores Cancer Center's Asian Grocery Store-Based Cancer Education Program (the Program) is a proven and sustainable strategy for disseminating cancer and poison control information to Asian and Pacific Islander (API) communities. This paper describes the process taken to identify health topics that can be readily addressed within the Program's infrastructure and reports results of the pilot testing of the educational module that was developed by following that process. The development of each new module is guided by the Health Belief Model and the Tipping Point Model. The process starts with the selection of a health topic demonstrating pressing need and treatment options in the API community. Then, using the Pareto principle, reasonably modifiable risk factors are chosen to be addressed in the module. "Sticky messaging" for the modifiable risk factors is developed to package the health information as memorable and transmissible calls-to-action. Finally, grocery store outreaches were used to pilot test the new module to assess its effectiveness at facilitating health care information to API community members. By adhering to the steps described in this paper, the authors were able to: (1) select liver cancer as a pressing API health issue that could be positively impacted by the Program; (2) identify reasonably modifiable risk factors for the chosen health issue; (3) generate compelling call-to-action messages to decrease risk of exposure; and (4) demonstrate the cultural and linguistic alignment of the liver cancer control module. The development and testing of new health education modules follow a methodical process guided by scientific principles. Understanding and employing the elements of an existing evidence-based and sustainable health education program can increase the likelihood of success in addressing the health needs of the API community.
Cluster adjusted regression for displaced subject data (CARDS): Marginal inference under potentially informative temporal cluster size profiles

Ignorance of the mechanisms responsible for the availability of information presents an unusual problem for analysts. It is often the case that the availability of information is dependent on the outcome. In the analysis of cluster data we say that a condition for informative cluster size (ICS) exists when the inference drawn from analysis of hypothetical balanced data varies from that of inference drawn on observed data. Much work has been done in order to address the analysis of clustered data with informative cluster size; examples include Inverse Probability Weighting (IPW), Cluster Weighted Generalized Estimating Equations (CWGEE), and Doubly Weighted Generalized Estimating Equations (DWGEE). When cluster size changes with time, i.e., the data set possess temporally varying cluster sizes (TVCS), these methods may produce biased inference for the underlying marginal distribution of interest. We propose a new marginalization that may be appropriate for addressing clustered longitudinal data with TVCS. The principal motivation for our present work is to analyze the periodontal data collected by Beck et al. (1997, Journal of Periodontal Research 6, 497-505). Longitudinal periodontal data often exhibits both ICS and TVCS as the number of teeth possessed by participants at the onset of study is not constant and teeth as well as individuals may be displaced throughout the study.

Presurgical Botulinum Toxin A Treatment Increases Angiogenesis by Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α/Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Subsequent Superiorly Based Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous Flap Survival in a Rat Model

To date, there have been several experimental studies to assess tissue viability of transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flaps. Botulinum toxin A (BoTA) has gained popularity in many clinical fields, for a variety of therapeutic and aesthetic purposes. In addition, there have been reports regarding the positive effect of BoTA on flap survival by various mechanisms. In this study, we hypothesized that pretreatment with BoTA could augment the survival of TRAM flaps via increased hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)1α/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-dependent angiogenesis.Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: a control group and a BoTA group. Five days before superiorly based TRAM flap elevation, the BoTA group was pretreated with BoTA, whereas the control group was pretreated with normal saline. Gross flap survival rates were assessed, and quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting were performed for the evaluation of angiogenesis-related factors (CD34, HIF-1α, and VEGF).In the BoTA group, the gross flap survival rate was significantly higher than that in the control group on both ipsilateral (92.78.3 ± 5.05% vs 86.8 ± 3.88%, P = 0.009) and contralateral (91.57 ± 5.79% vs 74.28 ± 11.83%, P < 0.001) sides.The relative mRNA expression of CD34 and VEGF was significantly higher in the BoTA group than that in the control group in every zone, whereas the relative mRNA expression of HIF-1α was significantly higher in the BoTA group than that in the control group on contralateral sides. The relative protein expression of CD34, VEGF, and HIF-1α was significantly higher in the BoTA group than that in the control group in every zone.In conclusion, we demonstrate that presurgical BoTA treatment might increase angiogenesis by HIF-1α/VEGF, subsequently increase superiorly based TRAM flap survival in a rat model.
Novel Cultured Protists Identify Deep-branching Environmental DNA Clades of Cercozoa: New Genera Tremula, Micrometopion, Minimassisteria, Nudifila, Peregrinia

We describe three new orders of filosan Cercozoa, five new deep-branching genera, eight new species of Thaumatomonas, Reckertia, Spongomonas, Rhogostoma, Agitata, Neoheteromita and Paracercomonas, sequence their 18S rDNA, and construct 18S rDNA trees for 148 Cercozoa. Our phylogeny indicates that Filosa were ancestrally gliding flagellates; non-flagellate filose amoebae evolved from them five times independently. The new genera are more closely related to environmental DNA sequences than cultured organisms. Tremula longifila, a zooflagellate glider on both flagella (unlike other Cercozoa), is the most divergent filosan (Tremulida ord. n.). Micrometopion nutans is a eukaryote-eating gliding zooflagellate like Metopion and Metromonas. Minimassisteria diva is a widespread trimorphic marine amoeboflagellate granofilosan. Peregrinia clavideferens, a non-testate, scale-bearing, filose amoeba, branches deeply in Thaumatomonadida, which are probably sisters to Spongomonadida. Nudifila producta is a filose amoeboflagellate related to Clautriavia and Marimonadida (ord. n., e.g. Pseudopirsonia, Auranticordis). We substantially revise Imbricatea, now including Spongomonadida, and Thecofilosea to include Phaeodaria. Thecofilosea and Imbricatea and Thecofilosea are sisters, both arguably ancestrally rigid gliding flagellates with ventral pseudopod-emitting grooves. Scale-free Ovulinata parva is sister to Paulinella, so imbricate silica scales can be lost. Internal hollow silica skeletons evolved twice in Thecofilosea (Ebriida, Phaeodaria) or were multiply lost. Protaspa replaces preoccupied 'Protaspis'.
Earnings expectation and graduate employment: Evidence from recent Chinese college graduates

Chinese college graduates have faced increasing labor market competition since the expansion of tertiary education. Given rigid market demand, graduates with realistic earnings expectations may experience a more efficient job search. Using the 2008 MYCOS College Graduate Employment Survey, this study finds that a 1 000 yuan reduction in a graduate’s reservation wage can significantly increase the probability of finding a job by 66% and increase the likelihood of being employed six months after graduation by 92%. In addition, the gap between the reservation wage and the market wage has a positive impact. By slightly adjusting earnings expectations, college graduates can significantly improve job search efficiency. Market wages should be seen as reference points when adjusting income expectations.
Economic assessment of a distributed energy system in a new residential area with existing grid coverage in China

Abstract A distributed energy system refers to an energy system where energy production is close to end use, typically relying on various small-scale energy generation, conversion and storage technologies. The Chinese government has recently expressed interest in promoting this type of energy system. The paper develops an optimization model to evaluate the economic feasibility of adopting a distributed energy system in a new residential community in Beijing, where grid coverage is already well developed and accessible. The economic implications of adopting different grid connection regimes are also assessed. Results show that compared to the more conventional approach of relying entirely on the grid for electricity supplies, a distributed energy system is cheaper when a connection to the power grid can still be used to draw some electricity during periods of peak demand. Additionally, the economic benefits of electricity buy-back provisions for the distributed energy system are found to be minimal.
Local Topographic Model using Position Index for Analyzing the Characteristics of Unserpentinized Lateritic Zones in Sorowako Nickeliferous Laterite Deposit, Indonesia

An investigation of the relationship between slope position classification and nickeliferous laterite zones over serpentinized ultramafic terrain in Sorowako, South Sulawesi has been conducted using topographic position index from Light Detection and Ranging data for digital elevation model as references with detail resolution of 5m. The index is calculated by comparing the elevation of each cell in the elevation model to the mean of a specified neighborhood around that cell. The classification has six classes, i.e., valleys, lower slopes, gentle slopes, middle slopes, upper slopes and the local ridges. Chemical properties data from 413 drill holes were used for analysis to confirm the laterite zones –limonite and saprolite. By topographic model, slope position class of local ridges, upper slopes and lower slopes with the slope average of 9.82°, 16.05°, and 14.61° respectively, generally indicated the distribution of thick limonite zones, while saprolite zones were in significantly different pattern due to less or no correlation. 2D semivariogram model for spatial thickness distribution also confirmed the corresponding factor between the significant direction of landform reliefs and limonite thickness. Based on the geochemistry profile of limonite zone, the rate of weathering process in laterite formation is longer than the physical process of removal top profile by erosion or accumulation by transported top materials.
Intrinsic charm contribution to the prompt atmospheric neutrino flux

In this work we investigate the impact of intrinsic charm on the prompt atmospheric neutrino flux. The color dipole approach to heavy quark production is generalized to include the contribution of processes initiated by charm quarks. The prompt neutrino flux is calculated assuming the presence of intrinsic charm in the wave function of the projetile hadron. The predictions are compared with previous color dipole results which were obtained taking into account only the process initiated by gluons. In addition, we estimate the atmospheric (conventional + prompt) neutrino flux and compare our predictions with the ICECUBE results for the astrophysical neutrino flux. Our results demonstrate that the contribution of the charm quark initiated process is non - negligible and that the prompt neutrino flux can be enhanced by a factor $\approx$ 2 at large neutrino energies if an intrinsic charm component is present in the proton wave function.
Synbio.Ecm: designer extracellular matrices to program healthy and diseased cardiac morphogenesis

To meet medical needs worldwide, tissue engineering must move from successful pre/clinical products towards an effective process to meet Worldwide medical needs, but this is challenging since a quantitative design framework has not emerged, yet.  Synthetic biology (SYNBIO) was the solution that genetic engineers found to the same problem: “Despite tremendous individual successes in genetic engineering and biotechnology […], why is the engineering of useful synthetic biological systems still an expensive, unreliable and ad hoc research process?” asked Dr. Endy in a 2005 letter to Nature. The SYNBIO solution included: i) libraries of DNA parts with well-characterized effect on cells; ii) tools to computationally design system-level assemblies, or designer-DNA; and, iii) bottom-up engineering of cell functions using progressively more complex designer-DNA. Effectively, SYNBIO introduced a computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/M) platform that transformed the process of engineering cells. However, since inputs from the extracellular matrix (ECM) have largely been ignored, progress towards programmable tissue-level behavior have been more modest. 

Here, we will build on my experience with computational and experimental models in cardiac tissue engineering to develop a CAD/M framework for engineering cardiac tissues with computationally predictable properties, or designer-ECM. To characterize ECM-cell interactions, we will use traction force and super-resolution microscopy with fluorescence in-situ sequencing. To model multiscale ECM-cell interactions, we will use ordinary differential equations and subcellular element models. Finally, we will leverage ECM parts and human induced pluripotent stem cells to bioprint designer-ECM that recapitulate three phases of heart development: trabeculation, compaction, and maturation. 

With synthetic matrix biology (SYNBIO.ECM), we will develop a CAD/M-based process and a new class of products for cardiac 
tissue engineering.
Detecting Social Situations from Interaction Geometry

A novel method for quantitatively measuring social interactions on small temporal and spatial scales on the basis of interaction geometry (reduced to the parameters interpersonal distance and relative body orientation) with the help of infrared (IR) tracking is introduced. The method is intended to be used to establish a probabilistic classifier to identify existing social situations on the basis of measuring the two parameters for pairs of persons through a series of experiments. The classifier can then be used for characterizing the social context (as an evidence for or against established social situations) of users using sensors in mobile devices in view of useful future Mobile Social Networking services. A first experiment is conducted with the method, a number of standard classifiers including a Gaussian Mixture Model are trained and evaluated and the results are discussed.
Blurring the boundaries: a collaborative approach to language and learning support for social work students

Victoria University in melbourne, australia attracts students
with diverse histories and cultural backgrounds. Academic
staff of the Social Work Unit have a long history of working
with staff from learning Support Services to assist
students to develop their academic skills. In 2011, social
work and learning support staff have worked together to
develop a new collaborative approach to learning support,
characterised by an ‘outreach’ approach of bringing highly
contextualised learning support to the students in their
social work course, rather than trying to encourage the
students to attend separate learning support services. This
new approach blurs the boundaries between the disciplinespecific
teaching and the learning support. It was stimulated
by the University’s pilot of a language literacy and numeracy
(lln) strategy. Underpinning this approach is the idea that
all students are being apprenticed into a new discursive
space. Situated and explicit lln support is the focus, and
staff approach lln in developmental rather than deficit
terms. This paper describes the outreach approach and
explores what made this collaborative approach possible.
Some of the factors identified include shared commitment
to a student-centred approach that works with strengths
rather than deficits, and the compatibility of the critical
social work approach of the social work staff with the
critical literacy approach of the learning support staff.
Forensic Medicine: Bangladesh Perspective

In this paper the remnants of British medical jurisprudence, the medico legal service of Bangladesh were discussed to improve the current medico legal practice and to propose future plan. In Bangladesh, all unnatural deaths are to be reported at the nearest police station and an appointed police officer should visit the scene of occurrence for investigation and to arrange postmortem if required. The forensic services of the country are delivered partly by academic staffs of government medical colleges' forensic medicine department and rest by the civil surgeons - the district health administrator. The civil surgeons perform postmortem by the doctors under him in district hospitals, most of them have no forensic qualifications. Currently academic and professional postgraduate courses are available. The chemical examiner's laboratory is situated at Dhaka with the facility of quantitative tests only. The Government of Bangladesh is trying to standardize the existing system. A workshop on medico legal service was organized recently at Dhaka by the Medico Legal Society of Bangladesh. A DNA profiling laboratory was established at Dhaka Medical College Forensic Medicine Department. Such progress is a milestone in the development of medico legal service in Bangladesh. However, with a few exceptions teaching and training facilities are still lacking. Key words: Forensic; Bangladesh Perspective. DOI: 10.3329/jdmc.v19i1.6255 J Dhaka Med. Coll. 2010; 19(1) : 61-64.
