Preservation of the national and cultural identity of the Buryats and the role of the media in reflecting these processes
Authors: Koftun Vladislav Vladislavovich , Gegelova Natalia Sergeevna
Published: December 2024

The subject of the study is the coverage in the Russian federal and regional media of issues of preserving the national and cultural identity of the Buryat people, including the role of shamanism and cultural traditions in this process. The object of the study is media resources that raise the topic of Buryat identity, including the magazines "Baigal" and "Morin Khuur", as well as news publications for 2020-2024. The author examines in detail such aspects of the topic as the role of shamanism in the cultural revival of the Buryats and its functions in society, as well as the importance of genealogical knowledge for the social structure of the Buryat people based on the views of the Japanese Mongolologist I. Shimamura. The theoretical basis was the ideas of Russian and Western scientists about values and civilizational confrontation. Particular attention is paid to interdisciplinary analysis, including philosophical, social and cultural aspects, and a comparison of ways to consider the topic at the federal and regional levels.  The research methodology includes a comparative analysis of federal and regional media on the topic of Buryat identity, as well as a content analysis of publications for 2020-2024. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the consideration of shamanism as a cultural phenomenon and a tool in restoring the identity of the Buryats. The original element of the work is the proof of the need for knowledge of genealogy for Buryat society and its dominant role in preserving ethnic identity. For the first time, the article compares two levels of media, which helps to understand what accents different media make on preserving the culture and traditions of the Buryats. The novelty of the research is manifested in the analysis of that part of the Russian media agenda, which was previously rarely covered in the context of Buryat identity in Mongolia. As a result, such features of the presentation of this topic in the media were revealed, as an emphasis on the integrating role of shamanism in the Buryat community and its importance for interaction with other peoples.
El conocimiento de la persona en su singularidad. Una aproximación desde dos exponentes de la Escuela Tomista de Barcelona
Authors: García Elton Íñigo Alberto
Published: December 2024

En el presente artículo presentaremos, a la luz de la interpretación de Jaime Bofill y Francisco Canals de la tesis de la Duplex Cognitio (plasmada por Santo Tomás de Aquino en De Veritate X, 8), dos modos de conocimiento, una llamado «esencial-objetivo» y otro «existencial». Hecho esto, mostraremos que esta última forma de conocimiento no sólo permite dar razón del conocimiento que el alma tiene de sí por su propio ser, sino que también del conocimiento de otra persona en su singularidad; evidenciando, así, que el otro se hace presente a quien lo conoce al modo de una presencia inmediata y dinámica, comunicativa de la intimidad personal, y que damos el nombre de «biografía».

MTDL-GAN: De novo Design of Multi-Target Directed Ligands for Alzheimer’s Disease from Unpaired Sets of Target-Focused Chemical Library
Authors: Lee Taeyeub
Published: December 2024

Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common form of dementia, causes memory loss, cognitive decline, and behavioural changes, affecting over 32 million people globally. Current AD treatments that focus on single-target intervention often fail to significantly slow disease progression and may not be effective for all patients. Given AD’s complex nature, a more effective approach may involve targeting multiple pathways simultaneously. This study proposes the use of a cycle-consistent adversarial network to design multi-target directed ligands (MTDL-GAN), drugs designed to inhibit two primary AD target enzymes simultaneously. Our targets of interest are acetylcholinesterase (AChE), beta-secretase 1 (BACE1), and glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3), which are known to have significant impacts on the progression and development of AD, each with a different mechanism of action. Inhibitor libraries were curated from ChEMBL27 and characterized to represent each inhibitor domain, resulting in 69 AChE, 572 BACE1, and 246 GSK3 inhibitors. The MTDL-GAN was trained on these unpaired datasets to generate molecules with dual-target properties. Domain similarity metrics and molecular docking simulations were employed to validate the generated molecules’ structural and binding properties. The proposed method successfully transformed molecules from the original inhibitor domains to the target MTDL domain while preserving structural similarity to the original datasets. The generated molecules demonstrated promising in silico dual-binding affinity, with favourable physicochemical properties and synthetic tractability. Notably, several molecules surpassed the binding scores of investigational drugs in phase 2/3 clinical trials. These hit MTDL molecules are publicly available for medicinal chemists’ research.

Published: December 2024

Multiphasic structuring has emerged as a transformative strategy for controlling self-assembly at the nanoscale, enabling the creation of materials with unprecedented complexity and functionality. By introducing azobenzene-based supramolecular fluids into solvothermal reactions, we direct the formation of intricate metal-organic framework (MOF) superstructures with unique morphologies, such as bouquet and flower-like architectures. These superstructures exhibit emergent behaviors, including chirality transformations and structural adaptations, mimicking life-like dynamics observed in natural systems. Our approach leverages the interplay of molecular design and phase behavior to achieve precise control over morphological evolution within hermetic environments, offering a new perspective on MOF synthesis. These findings expand the horizons of material design, paving the way for the development of adaptive and biomimetic systems with unparalleled precision and functionality.
High Pressure Conformational Sampling
Authors: Zeller Felix , Pracht Philipp , Neudecker Tim
Published: December 2024

Conformational sampling nowadays is a standard routine in computational chemistry. Within this work we present a method to perform conformational sampling for systems exposed to elevated pressures within the CREST program, allowing us to model pressure-induced changes of molecular ensembles and structural parameters. For this purpose we extend the molecular Hamiltonian with the PV (pressure times volume) term, using the solvent-accessible volume. The volume computation is performed within the new standalone library \textsc{libpvol}. A first application shows good agreement with experimental data and provides a reasonable explanation for severe pressure-induced structural and spectroscopic changes of the molecule tetra(4-methoxyphenyl)ethylene.

Borys Hrinchenko in the memories of contemporaries
Authors: Ivashchenko Mariia
Published: December 2024

The article analyzes the reception of B. Hrinchenko's work in criticism, elaborates studies of his contemporaries, devoted to his biography, social and literary activities. The main attention is focused on the aspect of the artist's writing work, the prerequisites for its formation, as well as the author's inherent character traits and features of appearance, which testified to the writer's strong-willed qualities and contributed to his searches. He reacted acutely to the injustice and injustice inflicted on the Ukrainian people, in particular by the numerous bans on the Ukrainian language, and was concerned with national and social issues at a time when inequality and the poor were chaining the impoverished people into chains of obedience and submission. The writer saw not the only salvation in enlightenment, the instrument of which became the embodiment of literature.

The object of the study was the autobiography of B. Hrinchenko, the memoirs of M. Hrinchenko, I. Lypa, M. Lysenko, D. Pisochnytsia, the works of S. Yefremov "Borys Hrinchenko (About his life and works), M. Plevako's "Life and work of Borys Hrinchenko", "Cedar of Lebanon" by M. Chernyavskyi, criticism by L. Smilyanskyi, S. Rudnychenko, V. Koryak. The literary works of O. Biletsky, N. Kobyzhcha, A. Movchun, O. Nezhivy, A. Pogribny, and others were analyzed.

The purpose of this article is to form a holistic and objective view of B. Hrinchenko's life, literary activity, character, moral values and orientations with the help of reviews of contemporaries who accompanied the writer on various aspects of his life and professional path. The topicality of the topic is due to the fact that B. Hrinchenko's work becomes the object of research by literary critics much less often than works devoted to pedagogical and educational views, scientists reveal ideological-aesthetic and national-social aspects, carrying out a detailed analysis of biography, epistolary, journalism, ethnographic works. Despite the limited amount of critical literature, the chosen topic is promising and needs more detailed coverage.
Communicative strategies and tactics in the speech of Liera Farkash, the heroine of the first season of the TV series Early Swallows
Authors: Bobro Mariia , Demianiva Kateryna
Published: December 2024

Communication plays an extremely important role in the life of humans as social beings. The speech of characters in literary works is promising in terms of studying their communicative behavior, since, on the one hand, it reflects the actual speech of a particular period, and on the other, it is to some extent more deliberate, as the author, in order to realise their creative intention, meticulously thinks over the characters’ words, the linguistic means they use, the style and nature of their communication. The present article considers the communicative strategies and tactics in the speech of Lera Farkash, the main character of the TV series Early Swallows, as well as the linguistic means that facilitate their implementation. Theoretical approaches to the classification of communicative strategies and tactics have been characterized. It is pointed out that primarily confrontational (based on opposition and carrying out discussions from a competitive or conflictual standpoint) and cooperative (based on the principles of mutual support, collaboration, and joint problem-solving) strategies are characteristic of Lera’s speech. It has been discovered that initially the confrontational strategy predominates in the girl’s communicative behavior in her interactions with her parents and classmates of a lower social status, which shows through application of communicative tactics of provocation, ignoring, offense, and discreditation aimed at psychological pressure on the interlocutor and diminishing their social status. These tactics are implemented in Lera’s speech through the use of coarse vocabulary, ironic and sarcastic use of diminutive-affectionate forms, provocative rhetorical questions etc. On the other hand, as the plot develops, when Lera starts to communicate with her classmates more closely, becomes more open and trustful with her parents and friends, her behavior increasingly tends to employ cooperative strategies, implemented through the tactics of compliments, openness, and consolation, aimed at supporting and soothing in difficult situations.
Linguistic means of creating an image of a person with intellectual disabilities in D. Keyes’s novel «Flowers for Algernon»
Authors: Kanevska Olga , Klymenko Iryna
Published: December 2024

Reproducing the speech portrait of a character in the text of a literary work is a difficult artistic task, especially for characters who have certain intellectual impairments and speech disorders, i.e. suffer from aphasia. The writer gives an authentic and detailed description of certain manifestations of aphatic syndromes in the character taking into account both language disorders and psychopathological manifestations that significantly affect the structure and content of the text.

The article defines and characterizes the peculiarities of the use of language means in creating the image of a character with intellectual disabilities in the novel.

The novel under study shows the evolution of the character’s personality: as a result of a scientific experiment (surgical operation), a patient with low level of intellectual development turns practically into a genius. But interfering with the character’s brain gives only a temporary improvement –– rapid progress is replaced by degradation.

The changes in Charlie Gordon’s intellectual development are shown through his speech portrait –– an important means of revealing the image of the character and his inner world. The depiction of the image of a character in a literary work involves giving him speech abilities in accordance with all factors that affect the course of speech, its qualitative and quantitative characteristics (personal, mental, psychological, age, social, national, regional).

The analysis of the novel by D. Keys shows that the writer portrays the character in dynamics, which is also reflected in his speech portrait. Charlie Gordon’s path from a person with intellectual disability to an intellectual genius and vice versa is shown in his reports-records, in which all that happened to him is successively reproduced, and the people he had to communicate with, his worldview and his perception of the world are described.

In order to create the image of a character with intellectual disabilities, D. Keyes chose only a few linguistic means (graphon, capitalization, lexical repetitions) to reproduce the speech of such a person, with a wider range of such means for the image of Charlie the intellectual. The deliberate selection of linguistic means helped to create contrasting images of Charlie as a person with intellectual disabilities and Charlie as a person with a high IQ.

Contrasting speech portraits of the character involves a special expressiveness, addressability and helps D. Keys to create a three-dimensional, multifaceted image.

Abstract
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) collaborated with the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) to plan and run a simulation exercise to rehearse a multi‐agency, multi‐Member State response under Regulation (EU) 2022/2371 on Serious Cross Border Threats to Health (SCBTH). Engaging with EFSA's training contractor, Instinctif Partners, EFSA and FSAI co‐developed a 2.5‐day preparedness training event, comprising an overview of the Regulation on SCBTH, a role‐played, 1.5‐day simulation exercise and a half‐day debrief session. The event, which was held in person at the Convention Centre, Dublin, also involved multiple participants joining online. In addition to rehearsing the development of a multi‐agency joint risk assessment (JRA) in response to a SCBTH, the training also aimed to clarify Member State interaction during such a response. The debrief session elicited much discussion and a number of actions were identified as next steps. This debrief session, alongside the identified actions and participants’ responses to the post‐event evaluation survey, demonstrate that the training achieved its objectives. There were fifty‐one participants in the training event representing four units of European Commission Directorate General on Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE), five EU Agencies and five Member States. Eight facilitators from Instinctif Partners, FSAI and EFSA ensured the smooth and efficient running of the event. This report documents the development, content, conclusions and recommendations of the training event, as well as the participants’ evaluation of it.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
The EFSA Animal Health and Welfare (AHAW) Network Animal Welfare includes two sub‐groups: the subgroup specialised on Animal Welfare (AW) and the subgroup of the scientific National Contact Points (NCPs) for scientific support established under Art 20 of Council Regulation (EC) 1099/2009. In March 2024, during the annual meeting of the EFSA Network subgroups, EFSA conducted an information‐gathering exercise on mutilation practices in turkeys, both breeders and turkeys kept for meat production, focusing on beak trimming, toe trimming de‐toeing, and de‐snooding, across different countries. Prior to the meeting, a questionnaire was distributed to the Network members to gather comprehensive data on these practices, including the methods employed, the age at which the mutilations are performed, the individuals responsible for performing them, and the use of analgesia or anaesthesia. The questionnaire also explored measures in place to reduce the need for these mutilations and any alternative strategies being implemented. During the meeting, participants engaged in a structured discussion, elaborating on questionnaire responses and providing additional insights and clarifications. This exercise resulted in a comprehensive overview of current mutilation practices in turkey farming across the represented countries. The information included in this report will support the risk assessment of the scientific opinion on the welfare of turkeys on farm, expected to be delivered by the EFSA AHAW Panel in 2025.

KAZUO ISHIGURO’S NEVER LET ME GO: AN ANALYSIS THROUGH THE LENS OF PLACE
Authors: Neog Biswajit , Kashyap Kakoli
Published: December 2024

This paper explores Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go through the lens of spatial theory, examining how the construction and perception of place shape the novel's exploration of identity, memory, and human relationships. Drawing on Yi-Fu Tuan's concepts of space and place and Edward Relph's theory of place authenticity, the study investigates how key locations—such as Hailsham, the Cottages, and the recovery centers—function as more than mere settings, instead serving as active participants in the characters' emotional and existential journeys. The paper argues that these spaces embody the tensions between belonging and alienation, safety and confinement, and the known and the unknowable. By analyzing how the characters' sense of self is tied to their spatial experiences, this study sheds light on the broader implications of place in the novel, particularly in relation to themes of societal control, personal agency, and the inevitability of loss. Ultimately, the research highlights Ishiguro's nuanced portrayal of place as a medium through which human connections and existential truths are both forged and fractured.

Pertumbuhan umat muslim di dunia diiringi pertumbuhan kesadaran konsumen terhadap kehalalan suatu produk, termasuk di Indonesia. Pengertian halal dewasa ini telah berkembang menjadi sebuah gaya hidup konsumen muslim, dan diterima dengan baik oleh konsumen non-muslim. Menanggapi perkembangan tersebut, pemerintah membuat regulasi wajib halal Oktober 2024 bagi pelaku usaha dan diperpanjang hingga tahun 2026. Hal tersebut adalah upaya pemerintah mendorong masyarakat untuk lebih memperhatikan kualitas produk. Dengan demikian produk yang dihasilkan oleh pelaku usaha mikro kecil dan menengah memiliki daya saing dan mampu memperoleh kepercayaan konsumen. Namun tidak semua masyarakat memiliki pengetahuan dan kemampuan untuk meningkatkan kualitas produk dari segi kehalalan produk tersebut. KWT Nine Seru yang terletak di pelosok desa di Kabupaten Lombok Tengah belum memiliki sertifikat halal karena keterbatasan informasi yang dimiliki untuk memperoleh jaminan halal. Oleh karena itu, tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah mendampingi KWT Nine Seru memperoleh sertifikat halal, dengan luaran berupa adanya sertifikat halal bagi produk keripik KWT Nine Seru. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan diawali dengan tahap perencanaan, tahap pelaksanaan, dan tahap evaluasi. Tahap pelaksanaan kegiatan dibagi menjadi dua kegiatan utama, yaitu tutorial pembuatan akun SIHALAL dan pendampingan pengajuan sertifikat halal. Hasil yang diperoleh dari kegiatan pengabdian ini yaitu KWT Nine Seru telah memiliki akun SIHALAL dan status pengajuan sertifikat halal telah terbit.
