The History of Life film project
Authors: Murray John , Henry Tiernan , Frank Tracy , Ní Dhonnchadha Labhaoise , McSharry Blaneth , McGrath Gráinne , Flynn Sharon , Spillane Jeremiah , Mac Labhrainn Iain
Published: March 2021

The History of Life film project is deeply rooted in the area of science communication, education and public engagement. Every year since 2011, NUI Galway final-year undergraduate science students taking the module History of Life have been tasked with researching a significant theme related to the evolution of life on Earth, and then producing a short documentary-style film on their chosen topic. The students work in small teams and have no prior training in film-making. Their finished films are uploaded to a specially created channel on YouTube, where they have amassed large viewing figures. The value of this multimodal teaching approach is that it engages all of the major learning domains. Cognitive skills are enhanced through acquisition, analysis and communication of knowledge, and practical skills are honed through deployment and use of technology. The students also develop their team-working skills and they find the overall learning experience both novel and rewarding: positively impacting on the affective domain. The strong temporal narrative which underpins palaeontology makes it well suited for film and in the ten years that the History of Life film project has been running, many inspiring moments have been captured by the various student teams. This presentation draws upon student feedback, along with instructor and media developer insights, to highlight key takeaways from the project and makes recommendations for optimising best practice in media-based science communication/educational initiatives.

Remotely Measuring Oil Slick Thickness: An Epic Challenge
Authors: Fingas Merv
Published: March 2021

Abstract: The thickness of oil spills on the sea is an important but poorly studied topic. Means to measure slick thickness are reviewed. More than 30 concepts are summarized. Many of these are judged not to be viable for a variety of scientific reasons. Two means are currently available to remotely measure oil thickness, namely, passive microwave radiometry and time of acoustic travel. Microwave radiometry is commercially developed at this time. Visual means to ascertain oil thickness are restricted by physics to thicknesses smaller than those of rainbow sheens (~3 µm), which rarely occur on large spills, and thin sheen. One can observe that some slicks are not sheen and are probably thicker. These three thickness regimes are not useful to oil spill countermeasures, as most of the oil is contained in the thick portion of a slick, the thickness of which is unknown and ranges over several orders of magnitude. There is a continuing need to measure the thickness of oil spills. This need continues to increase with time, and further research effort is needed. Several viable concepts have been developed but require further work and verification. One of the difficulties is that ground truthing and verification methods are generally not available for most thickness measurement methods.
The Impacts of Climate Change on Societies: What Can We Learn from the Past?
Authors: Degroot Dagomar
Published: March 2021

This keynote presentation introduces the sources, methods, and major findings of the History of Climate and Society (HCS), a recently-coined field that uncovers the past influences of climate change on human history. It begins by offering a brief history of the field, from the eighteenth century through the present. It then describes how HCS scholars “reconstruct” past climate changes by combining what they call the “archives of nature” – paleoclimatic proxy sources such as tree rings, ice cores, or marine sediments – with the texts, stories, and ruins that constitute the “archives of society.” Next, it explains how HCS scholars in different disciplines have used distinct statistical and qualitative methods, and distinct causal frameworks, to identify the influence of climate change in the archives of society. It explores how HCS scholars conceptualize the vulnerability and resilience of past societies by introducing some telling case studies, and explaining how those case studies have grown more complex as HCS matured as a field. It then emphasizes the enduring challenges faced by HCS scholars and how, in recent months, they have been identified and are beginning to be addressed. Finally, it describes how HCS has informed climate change policy and public discourse, before offering some key lessons that policymakers can learn from the field.

Many of the traditional ideas that the state, thanks to space satellites, has an “all-seeing eye” to monitor field activities remain relevant to this day. However, along with this, remote sensing of the earth has functions that, according to the authors, should become an integral part of the routine practice of the state bodies of Kazakhstan. Remote sensing should be used not only in matters of monitoring and controlling economic activities, respecting the rule of law, and so on in the territory, but also forecasting and planning its development, assessing resources, opportunities and risks, including the prevention of natural and man-made emergencies, and even identifying social prerequisites tensions.
Nettundervisning i matematikk - hva skal til for å lykkes?
Authors: Andersen Peer Sverre
Published: March 2021

I mars 2020 måtte hele UH sektoren brått legge om all undervisning fra campusbasert undervisning til undervisning på digitale plattformer på grunn av utbruddet av Covid 19. De fleste lærere valgte å kjøre undervisningen som nettbasert undervisning ved hjelp av Zoom, gjerne i kombinasjon med andre digitale løsninger som f. eks bruk av læringsvideoer. For mange var dette en helt ny måte å jobbe på. Overgangen fra å stå i klasserommet til plutselig å drive nettundervisning fra PC var stor for mange. Med dagens teknologi er det fullt mulig å gjennomføre god og variert undervisning også på nettet. I artikkelen ser vi nærmere på hvordan vi kan utnytte mulighetene som ligger i Zoom og hvordan vi kan bruke ulike verktøy og programmer i kombinasjon med Zoom. Artikkelen fokuserer også på ulike grep vi som lærere kan gjøre ved gjennomføring av undervisningen for at den skal bli best mulig. Eksemplene er i hentet fra matematikkfaget, men mye av det som presenteres har også en overføringsverdi til andre fagområder.
Higher Education in the First Year of COVID-19: Thoughts and Perspectives for the Future
Authors: Cesco Stefano , Zara Vincenzo , Toni Alberto F. De , Lugli Paolo , Betta Giovanni , Evans Alexander C.O. , Orzes Guido
Published: March 2021

In the last year a new virus (SARS‑CoV‑2) and the disease caused by it (COVID-19) has quickly spread around the world, leading the World Health Organization to declare a public health emergency and, then, a global pandemic status. The strategies adopted by many countries to reduce the impact of the pandemic were mainly based on social distancing rules and on stay-at-home measures or lockdowns. These strategies had severe disruptive consequences on many sectors, including all levels of education. While the “traditional” (face-to-face) Higher Education (HE) system was unprepared for the lockdown (e.g., no plans for a massive shift to online teaching were available/ready), it reacted in an extremely quick and effective way, replacing face-to-face teaching with online teaching. While COVID-19 has been extremely challenging for education, the experience has undoubtedly provided positive inputs for the digitalization of the HE system. The question is however, if whether after the COVID-19 emergency everything will go back to the previous situation or instead if the pandemic has irreversibly changed HE. While we are still in the middle of the crisis, it is in our view beneficial to start to reflect on the challenges and open issues that emerged during this period and the lessons learned for the “new normal” (as it is often referred to). In this conceptual paper we seek to start this discussion by focusing on the following relevant aspects that should be considered to succeed in the digital transformation: broadband network infrastructure and hardware devices; e-learning software; organization of teaching activities; pedagogical issues; diversity and inclusivity; and a number of other issues. We conclude that the COVID-19 pandemic will irreversibly change HE and probably for the better.

Authors: Ringshawl Zubair Younis , Farooq Munir , Bhat Aijaz Ahmad , Pandit Haazim Haneef , Wani Suhail , Wani Fayaz Mustafa
Published: March 2021

Background. Acromioclavicular joint arthritis is a relatively common source of shoulder pain. The treatment options consist of conservative management and operative intervention depending on the severity and duration of the disease. Distal clavicle excision is the standard operative treatment and can be performed through either open or arthroscopic techniques. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcome of arthroscopic resection of the distal clavicle.
Material and methods. This was a prospective study, conducted in a group of 50 patients in the Post-Gra­duate Department of Orthopaedics, Govt. Medical College Srinagar, from July 2015 to July 2019 with cases followed for a minimum of 3 years.
Results. The mean UCLA score improved from 13.2 preoperatively to 29.56 at final follow-up. An excellent result was seen in 10 patients (20%), good in 34 (68%), fair in 3 (6%) and poor in 3 (6%) patients. Overall 88% of the patients achieved excellent or good results and 94% were satisfied. Persistent pain and excessive intraoperative bleeding were the most common complications in our study.
Conclusions. 1. Distal clavicle excision through an indirect or subacromial approach is a safe and effective procedure with very few complications. 2. The subacromial approach gives the added advantage of evaluating any glenohumeral joint and subacromial pathology. 3. This procedure is associated with less pain and improved cosmesis in comparison to open procedures.

Heat Treatment Effect on the Surface Properties of Carbon Cloth Electrode for Microbial Fuel Cell
Authors: CHANG Shih-Hang , TSAO Yuan-Ting , TUNG Kuan-Wei
Published: March 2021

In this study, we investigate the effect of heat treatment on the surface properties of carbon cloth electrodes and on the power generation efficiencies of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) configured with the heat-treated carbon cloth electrodes. Water contact angle measurements show that the hydrophobic surfaces of the carbon cloth became super-hydrophilic after heat treatment at a temperature above 500 °C, making it suitable for bacterial propagation. X-ray photoelectron spectrometry revealed that the signal of the C-O functional group of the carbon cloth electrodes increased in intensity after heat treatment. The MFCs configured with heat-treated carbon cloth electrode exhibited high power density of 16.58 mW/m2, whereas that of the untreated MFCs was only 8.86 mW m2. Compared with other chemical modifications, heat treatment does not use any environmentally unsound acidic or toxic solutions during modification and are promising for manufacturing large-scale MFC stacks.
The Emerging Impact of RNA Editing in Tumor Growth and Metastasis
Authors: Nasrollahzadehsabet Mehrdad , Behroozi Javad
Published: March 2021

Context: RNA editing is an essential modification that needs to develop normal cells and is involved in a wide range of biological processes. It can arise in both coding and non-coding sequences with different functional effects. Although the expansion of transcriptome diversity is the primary goal of RNA editing, dysregulation and aberrant editing may act as an essential contributor to cancer pathogenesis. Evidence Acquisition: The current review aimed to investigate the role of RNA editing in cancer initiation and progression. Science Direct and PubMed databases were reviewed from 2000 to 2020 and 2003 to 2020, respectively, using various combinations of "RNA editing" and "cancer" keywords. Results: The location of editing sites has different functional impacts on tumorigenesis. Nonsynonymous editing in antizyme inhibitor 1 (AZIN1) leads to a metastatic progression of colorectal and gastric cancer. Recoding editing events in bladder cancer-associated protein (BLCAP) is correlated with the progression of cervical carcinogenesis. Editing events located at 3′UTRs are also a general mechanism to promote tumor growth in different types of cancers. A significant number of editing events in microRNAs with a functional role in cancer are also reported. These editing sites could change the fate and function of microRNAs, either by preventing target mRNA recognition or by dysregulating an off-target mRNA. Conclusions: There are increasing shreds of evidence on the key role of RNA editing events in cancer initiation and progression.
Radiological Significance of Symmetric Central Tegmental Tract Hyperintensity in Pediatric Patients
Authors: Kesimal Ugur , Karaali Kamil , Senol Utku
Published: March 2021

Background: The central tegmental tract (CTT) is an extrapyramidal tract between the red nucleus and the inferior olivary nucleus which is part of the Guillain-Mollaret triangle (dentato-rubro-olivary system). Symmetric central tegmental tract hyperintensity (CTTH) is a pediatric brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) finding with an unclear clinical and radiological significance. Objectives: The aim of this retrospective study is to determine the radiological significance of CTTH on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in children. Patients and Methods: Pediatric patient’s MRI from January 2015 to January 2017 were retrospectively reviewed in this case series study. Patient records with presence of CTTH in their MRI were evaluated. Results: There were 39 out of 2981 brain MRIs with CTTH with a prevalence of 1.3%. Some CTTH lesions disappeared on follow-up. In two patients, the disappearance of CTTH temporally corresponded to clinical improvement. Also we had patients with hemolytic uremic syndrome, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, Wilson’s disease, combined immunodeficiency, Bartter syndrome, and autism. Conclusion: CTTH could be caused by a physiological maturation process or a physiological response of the cells in the central tegmental tract to a more widespread toxic/metabolic or ischemic insult in the brain. CTTH also appears to have a transient nature in some cases. Further research elucidating the pathophysiology of CTTH is needed.

Can doing nothing ever be a wrong or immoral choice? Do you have a duty to keep your word even if doing so is the cause of your own unhappiness in your life? In this work of philosophical short fiction, the narrator and her husband Andy, are stuck in their car on the side of the rode waiting for a snowstorm to blow over. While in the car we learn, through flashbacks, about all the reasons the narrator is unhappy in her marriage. Her wedding was a failure. She dislikes her in-laws, and finds them to be fat, loud, vulgar, and incapable of taking on responsibility. She does not like her husband, however, as an unemployed woman with two small children, and a sense of duty to her vows, she feels an obligation to stay with him. She finds his lack of intelligence, and his lack of agency, frustrating. She feels she is the only adult in the relationship. At the end of the story she leaves the car in the snowstorm to head to the next car to see if they have extra blankets. Before she leaves, she notices that Andy has turned on the car and the tailpipe is buried in snow. She begins to dig out the snow from the tailpipe in an effort to keep her husband from dying from carbon monoxide poisoning. In the end, she decides to simply stop digging and walk to the next car, presumably, to let her husband die in what will appear like an accident.
Towards Protolanguage

In this paper, I attempt to offer a general outline of my views on the origin and evolution of language. I do not pretend in any way to a completely new conception of language evolution. It seems to me that all the most important and productive hypotheses about the origin of language have already been made before, and it is only a matter of putting the pieces of the puzzle together correctly. As far as I can see it, the evolution of language is directly related to the embedded and embodied emotional types, which served as the basis for the subsequent categorization of perceived objects, and thus laid the ground for the formation of first an internal language (of thought), and then an external verbal language. Consistent with this, the paper is organized as follows. In the Introduction I briefly describe the problem I am facing in this article and outline a plan for solving it. Next section comprises a survey of relevant empirical findings related primarily to the processing and understanding of abstract terms and concepts. In my view, it supports the idea of the close connection of abstract terms proceeding, and thus language comprehension, with emotional states. The third section provides relevant theoretical considerations of the relationship between emotions, cognition, and language. Consistently considering various theories of emotions and concepts of language formation, I pay attention to the connection between affective states and language as a sign system. In the fourth section, my views are presented directly. In so doing, I illustrate my approach with a telling example that shows how, in the course of evolution, embedded and embodied emotional responses and reactions could become the building blocks first for the internal language of thought, and then for the external natural language.
Ludwig Wittgenstein and Logical Positivism
Authors: Nikiforov Alexander L. ,   Institute of Philosophy, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: March 2021

The article examines the question of whether L. Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus had any influence on the formation and development of logical positivism. It is shown that the members of the Vienna Circle were familiar with the Tractatus, but practically did not accept anything from its content. Wittgenstein's reasoning about the world, about facts, about the structure of fact were rejected by them as a bad metaphysics, with which they fought. The denial of causality and the deprivation of the meaning of scientific laws could not be accepted by representatives of logical positivism, whose main task was the logical analysis of the language of science in order to cleanse it of metaphysical concepts and build a unified science on a solid empirical foundation. If the members of the Vienna Circle were even familiar with Wittgenstein’s Tractatus, then representatives of the Berlin Group, the Lvov-Warsaw School, the Uppsala School and supporters of logical positivism in other countries hardly heard of it. This leads to the conclusion that Wittgenstein's Tractatus did not have any impact on the logical positivism.

música en la representación de la monarquía en la ciudad de Valencia (1829): Cantata a la Reina María Cristina de Borbón de Francisco Andreví Castellá (1786-1853)
Authors: Ordiñana Gil María
Published: March 2021

El 30 de septiembre de 1829 se inició el viaje de María Cristina de Borbón a su futuro enlace con Fernando VII. Una de las recepciones con mayor trascendencia en el recorrido fue la protagonizada por la ciudad de Valencia, entre cuyas muestras de fidelidad estuvo el encargo e interpretación de la Cantata a la Reina María Cristina de Borbón, compuesta por Francisco Andreví Castellá (1786-1853). En este trabajo se estudia hasta qué grado esta composición contribuyó al programa artístico desarrollado y a la proyección de la imagen de la monarquía durante los últimos años del reinado de Fernando VII.
Matan a delfines gays en piscina de George Clooney

Published: March 2021

Siempre había querido pergeñar (y publicar) un titular sensacionalista, pero no había tenido ocasión hasta hoy. Es una pequeña licencia, un regalo que me concedo para celebrar el primer aniversario de COMeIN. Aquí hablaremos de delfines masacrados, de los derechos del colectivo homosexual y de la mansión de Clooney, aunque sólo para evidenciar que el oportunismo, bien entendido, es esencial en las relaciones públicas.

Un buen amigo, asesor de comunicación y formador de portavoces, suele decir a sus clientes: “Aparecer en los medios es muy fácil. Pero si quiere conseguirlo sin desnudarse ni matar a nadie, entonces hay que currárselo mucho”. Este septiembre, la rentrée informativa nos ha regalado un ejemplo de fama mediática instantánea que le da la razón.

¿Por qué cambiar y hacer un documentarybook?
Authors: Linares Palomar Rafael
Published: March 2021

De todos es sabido que la tesis anunciada por Chris Anderson en el libro The Long Tail no ha sido solo un revulsivo para los grandes negocios intermediadores de la distribución de contenidos. Han aparecido nuevos agentes en la cadena de valor de la potente industria del vídeo: el VoD (video on demand), con Netflix a la cabeza, o los MCN (multichannel network), con YouTube como principal exponente, son algunos de los casos que, probablemente, están siendo más comentados y estudiados. Pero esta nueva manera de concebir la industria ha favorecido a los productores (aunque algunos no lo vean así) como nueva forma de extender y dar a conocer los productos audiovisuales.
Las 'cosas' del presidente
Authors: Sivera Sílvia
Published: March 2021

Alejandro Casona, poeta y dramaturgo de la generación del 27, decía que hablar poco, pero mal, es hablar demasiado. El actual presidente del Gobierno español, Mariano Rajoy, no acostumbra a hablar demasiado, pero dice muchas ‘cosas’ que dan para una antología de titulares periodísticos. En este artículo se recogen algunos ejemplos de la cosificación de su discurso político y se apuntan algunas posibles causas.

En los primeros segundos te la juegas
Authors: Pastor Lluís
Published: March 2021

Lo más importante en la comunicación se resuelve en unos pocos segundos: los primeros segundos en los que estamos en contacto con otra persona o con un mensaje. Los primeros segundos en los que actúan los mecanismos inconscientes y la intuición suelen marcar los juicios que generamos sobre el otro. Esta defensa del papel de la intuición en la comunicación es relativamente nueva. La historia, forjada por los próceres que consideraban la intuición un asunto menor, irrelevante, ha apartado la intuición y lo inconsciente de la línea central del conocimiento y los ha convertido en las malas hierbas que crecen en los marjales.

La importancia de la mediería agrícola como mecanismo de cooperación al interior de la economía mapuche rural contemporánea en el contexto de la comunidad Valentín Marín de Nueva Imperial, IX Región, Chile
Authors: Codoceo Tapia Ricardo
Published: March 2021

En el siguiente artículo se presentan los resultados de una investigación social cualitativa sobre el rol de la mediería agrícola en la economía mapuche rural actual en el contexto de la comunidad Valentín Marín de la comuna de Nueva Imperial. Este artículo comienza identificando desde el punto de vista del actor local, los principales condicionamientos económicos y sociales que presentan las economías mapuches en el sector. Dichos factores inciden para la emergencia de la cooperación en mediería. En segundo lugar se busca determinar la importancia de los factores socioculturales en la organización de estas formas de producción agrícola, destacando el rol de la confianza como mecanismo cultural. En tercer lugar se caracterizan las formas de organizar la producción en base a la mediería, considerando producción de cereales, lupino y papas, los cultivos más desarrollados en la comunidad. En cuarto lugar se aborda la repercusión de esta forma de trabajo al interior de la economía familiar local, destacando su multifuncionalidad. En la discusión, a la luz de los resultados de este trabajo, se problematizan algunos de los principales supuestos y planteamientos que han elaborado distintos autores para comprender esta forma de trabajo agrícola. Se destaca el carácter instrumental de la mediería como mecanismo que beneficia a ambos actores del contrato, destacando la heterogeneidad de formas de organizar la mediería. Una de las conclusiones, es que quizás esta forma de trabajo cooperativo se haya intensificado en el sector estudiado, por la emergencia de nuevos condicionamientos económicos en las economías mapuches
