description: La historia de la divulgación científica en México aún es una asignatura pendiente, pues se conocen poco las vías en que la sociedad adquiría conocimientos científicos. Una de esas vías fueron los impresos, por ejemplo, los calendarios y las revistas de la ciudad de México. En el caso del público femenino, los impresos incluyeron contenidos de Zoología y Botánica en el período 1839-1856, tanto de autores mexicanos como extranjeros, a tono con otras publicaciones para mujeres de Europa y América. Los escritos zoológicos y botánicos explicaron características anatómicas y fisiológicas, comportamientos, utilidades económicas y peculiaridades de los seres vivos. Ambas ciencias formaron parte de la instrucción informal, el entretenimiento racional y los conocimientos útiles para la vida de las lectoras.

Abstract

The history of the Mexican scientific popularization is still pending, as the ways in which society acquired scientific knowledge are little known. One such ways was Mexico City’s calendars and magazines.For the female audience, these included contents of Zoology and Botany in the period 1839-1856, from Mexican and foreign authors, like other publications for other European and American women. Zoological and botanical writings explain anatomical and physiological characteristics, behaviors, economic profit and peculiarities of living things. Both sciences were part of the informal instruction, rational entertainment and useful knowledge for the life of the readers.

description: El presente artículo estudia en La musa de la mala pata (1926), el segundo libro de poesías de Nicolás Olivari (1900-1966), la formulación de una poética de vanguardia en el contexto literario rioplatense. A partir de lo que llamamos una poética de la tos, seguimos en sus poemas la formulación de una lengua poética que busca separarse de las nociones modernistas de musicalidad poética, propone una desacralización del lenguaje poético y se desplaza hacia una concepción del lenguaje que interroga la referencialidad.

Abstract

This article analyses in La musa de la mala pata (1926), the second book of poetry of Nicolás Olivari (1900-1966), the formulation of a poetics of vanguard in the Río de la Plata literary context. From what we call a poetic of cough, in his poems we follow the formulation of a poetic language that seeks to secede from the modernist notions of poetic musicality, proposes a demystification of poetic language and move towards a conception of language that interrogates the referentiality.

The Secret Agency of Dispossession
Creators: name: Ross, Stephen A.
Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Critical theory
subject: English literature

description: What happens if the homo sacer kills before he can be killed? What if the dispossessed repossess what was taken from them? What if some agent declares a state of exception to the state of exception? Starting from the observation that Agamben and Butler/Athanasiou characterize bare life and the dispossessed, respectively, in terms of radical passivity, my paper sets off in pursuit of the secret agency that may yet be hiding in the interstices. It finds it in the language of spectrality and haunting that animates Butler/Anathasiou’s writing about dispossession and the concept of the zone of indistinction so central to Agamben’s theorization. As a result, I argue, we may usefully conceive of the spectral as bare life with agency. In illustration of this thesis, I undertake a brief reading of Joseph Conrad’s richly evocative tale of terrorism, bare life, dispossession, and spectral vengeance: The Secret Agent. My conclusion broadens the reach of the foregoing theorization to challenge the audience to think beyond the extinctionist paradigm of the Anthopocene as advanced by Timothy Morton and others, and to seek a secret agency whereby we can yet disrupt the total extension of bare life and the state of exception to the entire planet and all species on it.

description: Multiferroic heterostructures have gained in recent years a renewed role in spintronic applications due to their possibility in controlling the magnetic properties via interfacial coupling by exploiting the ferroelectric response to various external stimuli. Whereas the main mechanisms ruling the converse magnetoelectric coupling are considered as established, the research on how to optimize the ferroelectric properties is an active field. In particular the complex phase diagram of [Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3]-x[PbTiO3] (PMN-xPT) single crystals, that present relaxor ferroelectric and photovoltaic properties, deserves further investigation. For instance, crystalline quality and thermal stability of the ferroelectric domains in heterostructures need assessment. Here we show how, by thermal annealing over the ferroelectric Curie temperature and then cooling PMN-0.4PT/Fe heterostructures in inert atmosphere the domain population is significantly modified, evolving from a highly disordered, mostly out-of-plane domain population, to improved crystallinity and prevalent in-plane oriented domains. Upon further annealing, the domain population switches back to prevalent out-of-plane orientation suggesting that intermediate annealing steps can freeze PMN-0.4PT domain population in a metastable configuration. The structural analysis was carried out by combining micro-Raman and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. In the three states the magnetic properties of interfacial Fe thin film are affected by the ferroelectric configurations as a consequence of changing interfacial strain, evolving from an isotropic behavior to an anisotropic one and back.

Pushing Boundaries: Teaching First-Year Composition at the High School Level

Subjects: subject: Language and languages--Study and teaching

description: In this talk I critically evaluate the essence of First Year Composition (FYC) and establishes the benefits a composition course would offer high school students. The intended purpose is to assess the feasibility of teaching FYC in the high school classroom and to consider views from the perspectives of students, teachers, and scholars in order to formulate a comprehensive conclusion. One key dispute in composition studies is whether students who write compositions as critical thinking assignmenƒts actually become better critical writers and thinkers. Proponents argue that this method establishes better writing and thinking skills among college and university students, while critics argue that since these skills do not necessarily transfer to other courses and/or disciplines, FYC should either be abolished or largely revised. This thesis suggests that the benefits of FYC clearly outweigh the problems many have cited and that key mitigation measures can be used to improve FYC courses. This PPT includes data acquired by Concurrent Enrollment students at Copper Hills High School in West Jordan, Utah, between May and October 2016.

title: Combined architectural-element and microfacies analyses in carbonate sedimentology: the intra-basin shoal complex of the Lower Muschelkalk (Rüdersdorf Formation, Anisian)

description: The layer-cake strata of the epeiric Anisian-Ladinian Muschelkalk are devoid of large-scale architectural elements, e. g. steep clinoforms of a progradional platform slope. This resulted in a simplified approach in facies analysis, in which results of classical microfacies analysis (microscale) are used directly to conclude on depositional models (macroscale). In coastal settings, depositional cycles (mesoscale) are often defined in an intermediate step to visualize progradational or retrogradational patterns of shorelines or shoreline-detached shoals. Apart from such large-scale stratal pattern architectures, a conceptual approach to integrate the depositional architecture of individual beds and sets of strata is missing. The intra-basin shoal system of the Anisian Rüdersdorf Formation shows a complex pattern of fore- to backshoal facies (Schaumkalk) interfingering with mixed clastic-carbonate facies of an epeiric Inland Sea (Wellenkalk, Jena Formation). Thus, it represents an ideal case study on depositional architectures of shallow marine carbonates. Our data are based on a detailed bed-by-bed outcrop study in the Rüdersdorf open pit mine to the East of Berlin. In addition, we included data from exploration wells situated in and near the open pit mine to reveal lateral facies changes. Consecutive observations from micro- to macroscale led to a classification of lithofacies types, architectural elements and lithofacies associations. The vertical succession exposed in the outcrop shows gradual transitions from bioturbated marly mudstone lithofacies (Wellenkalk) to thick cross-bedded oolitic/oomoldic grainstone lithofacies (Schaumkalk). Local 2-D correlation schemes implementing exploration wells reveal vertical and lateral facies shifts associated to the repeated formation, migration and drowning of an intra-basin shoal complex. The vertical and lateral facies shifts are associated to subaqueous sediment gravity flows, which redistributed carbonate grains from the shoal complex to foreshoal and backshoal environments. The bed-by-bed outcrop analysis revealed distinct architectures of sheet-like gravity flow deposits with decreasing internal complexity in down-current direction. The architectural elements of the medium- to low-energy transition zone are in noticeable contrast to those of the high-energy shoal fringe and top. The architectural elements observed so far enable an improved reconstruction of the physical processes leading to deposition of the Rüdersdorf Formation. If properly defined, the implementation of architectural-element analysis (mesoscale) in carbonate sedimentology may become the consistent intermediate step from microfacies analysis (microscale) to depositional models (macroscale).

description: As sustainability becomes an increasingly important issue around the world, people are looking for more ways to incorporate environmentally sustainable practices into their lifestyles. Athletics and recreation have a tendency to get overlooked when thinking of ways to increase sustainability. Additionally, many people ignore or do not realize the capacity of athletics to bring together communities, thus serving as a perfect platform for reaching out and encouraging environmental stewardship. That is why for my project I am putting together a list for feasible, sustainable practices that St. Mary’s athletics teams and the Athletics and Recreation Center can implement now or in the future, depending on their interests and availability of funding. Not only will these ideas help "green" the ARC and athletics teams, but they will increase environmental knowledge within the community, with the ability to transcend that knowledge to other fields and "green" St. Mary’s as a whole.

description: Este artículo analiza algunas de las revistas culturales más importantes del campo cultural cubano contemporáneo atendiendo a cómo el carácter del material que publican expresa y alimenta la existencia de un campo cultural cubano transnacional, que sería una de las partes constitutivas de una sociedad que no se articula exclusivamente sobre el eje del Estado nación. Nuestro análisis relacional y descriptivo demuestra cómo estas publicaciones, surgidas después del colapso soviético, interpelan a una comunidad cubana localizada en múltiples lugares y conectada por lazos de diversa índole (económicos, culturales, étnicos, etc.), estableciendo una identidad colectiva que no se define como “exiliada”, sino como “diaspórica”. Estas publicaciones seriadas abren así un campo cultural más inclusivo y extensivo que escapa a la dicotomía nación/exilio que había dominado en la producción cultural cubana de la segunda mitad del siglo XX.

Abstract

This paper focuses on some of the most important contemporary Cuban cultural journals in order to consider how they have shaped a transnational cultural field, which would be part of a new society not exclusively organized around the nation state. These publications emerged after the collapse of the Soviet Union, speaking to the disperse Cuban community, which remains connected by multiple ties (economic, cultural, ethnic, etc.). The dialogue these journals establish with the community develops a collective diasporic identity, outlining a more inclusive and extensive cultural field, where the opposition nation/exile that had characterized the Cuban cultural production during the second half of the XXth century, is no longer effective.

description: The utilization of mHealth applications for remote monitoring has the potential to revolutionize healthcare delivery by enhancing patient outcomes, increasing access to healthcare services, and reducing healthcare costs. This literature review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of knowledge on mHealth applications for remote monitoring, including their types, benefits, challenges, and limitations, as well as future directions and research gaps. A systematic search of databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Google Scholar was conducted to identify relevant articles published within the last 5 years. Thematic analysis was used to synthesize the findings. The review highlights various types of mHealth applications used for remote monitoring, such as telemedicine platforms, mobile apps for chronic disease management, and wearable devices. The benefits of these applications include improved patient outcomes, increased access to healthcare, reduced healthcare costs, and addressing healthcare disparities. However, challenges and limitations, such as privacy and security concerns, lack of technical infrastructure, regulatory is-sues, data accuracy, user adherence, and the digital divide, need to be addressed to ensure successful adoption and utilization of mHealth applications. Further research is required in areas such as the long-term effects of mHealth applications on patient outcomes, integration of mHealth data with electronic health records, and the development of artificial intelligence-driven mHealth applica-tions. By harnessing the potential of mHealth applications and addressing the existing challenges, healthcare delivery can be transformed towards a more accessible, cost-effective, and patient-centered model.

description: La trilogía cinematográfica de Pablo Larraín sobre la dictadura chilena refiere a las contradicciones de una memoria en acecho sobre una sociedad contemporánea, para establecer un diálogo entre un presente y un pasado ominoso. Los protagonistas de Tony Manero (2008) y Post Mortem (2010) simbolizan sujetos traumatizados que encarnan una temporalidad dual, transformándose en muertos vivos de una sociedad sin vida. Pertenecen al dominio de entre dos muertes, regresando para cobrar una deuda simbólica impaga. Ambos personajes traen el recuerdo de un pasado incómodo para la sociedad chilena, al reportar una historia fantasmal. Por lo tanto, los filmes de Larraín revisan la transición política como una tensión entre el olvido y el trabajo de duelo incompleto de la posdictatura. Este ensayo analiza la figura del no muerto que encarna la deuda de la sociedad chilena con su historia.

Abstract

Pablo Larraín’s film trilogy about the Chilean dictatorship explores the contradictions of memory haunting contemporary society, establishing a dialogue between a present and a dreadful past. The protagonists of Tony Manero (2008) and Post Mortem (2010) symbolize traumatized subjects embodying a dual temporality, becoming the living dead in a lifeless society. They belong to the domain of between two deaths, returning to collect an unpaid symbolic debt. Both characters bring back the memory of an inconvenient past to Chilean society reporting a haunting history. Hence, Larraín’s movies review the political transition as a tension between oblivion and the incomplete postdictatorial task of mourning. This essay analyzes the figure of the undead epitomizing the debt of Chilean society to its history.

description: El trabajo propone una hipótesis que busca ceñir la singularidad de todos los narradores en la obra de Juan José Saer. Para ello, traza una genealogía de la instancia narrativa saeriana como voz fenomenal. La categoría propuesta propone pensar al narrador saeriano como una relación conciencia-mundo en la cual se disuelve tanto la consistencia de la objetividad, presupuesto de la novela realista, como la consistencia de la subjetividad, presupuesto de la novela de vanguardia. El narrador saeriano plantea un tipo de interrogación que intenta disolver las certezas narrativas, incluso las negativas, para trabajar en el terreno raso de la experiencia, entendiendo por ésta la relación entre un sí-mismo sin subjetividad y un mundo de cosas que se desprende de sus determinaciones objetivantes.

Abstract

This work proposes a hypothesis that tries to stick to the singularity of every narrator in the work of Juan José Saer. For that, it traces a genealogy of Saer’s narrative instance as amazing voice. The proposed category suggests thinking about the Saer’s narrator as a relationship between conscience and world where both the consistency of objectivity, an estimation of the realist novel, and the consistency of subjectivity, an estimation of the vanguard novel, are dissolved. The Saer’s narrator sets a kind of interrogation that tries to separate the narrative truths, even the negative ones, to work on the flat ground of experience, understanding by this the relationship between oneself without subjectivity and a material world that can be deduced of its objectifying determinations.

description: El cuerpo es uno de los motivos más recurrentes en la narrativa del escritor cubano Virgilio Piñera (1912-1979). En este trabajo se realiza un análisis de su configuración en la novela La carne de René (1952). Como punto de partida, se distinguen dos frentes de asedio al cuerpo del protagonista. Por un lado, quienes desean "corromper" su fisicidad desde el placer –pues René quiere que su cuerpo permanezca incólume– y por otro, quienes quieren modificar su corporalidad desde la agresión física, mediante el uso de crueles métodos que violentan y llagan el cuerpo, con el fin de rendirle culto al dolor. Para reforzar mi análisis, me apoyo en algunas nociones sobre el cuerpo propuestas por Jean-Luc Nancy, quien reflexiona el cuerpo como un límite de sentido, y por Gilles Deleuze, quien profundiza sobre el "cuerpo sin órganos".

Abstract

The body is one of the most common motifs in the narration of the Cuban writer Virgilio Piñera (1912-1979). This paper analyses its configuration in the novel La carne de René (1952). As a starting, point two approaches to the protagonist’s body are distinguished. First, there are those who want to "corrupt" its physicality for pleasure – however René wants his body to remain intact – and second, there are those who want to modify its corporeality from physical aggression by using cruel methods that violate and wound the body, with the aim of worshipping the pain. To reinforce my analysis, I rely on some notions of the body that were carried out by Jean-Luc Nancy who sees the body as a limit of senses and Gilles Deleuze who elaborates on the "body without organs".

description: Este artículo se concentra en un aspecto particular, en el plano discursivo, del llamado "caso papeleras", la controversia ambiental en la frontera entre el Uruguay y la Argentina por la instalación de dos plantas de producción de pasta de celulosa en la localidad uruguaya de Fray Bentos, que se inició en 2003. Sostenemos que uno de los elementos discursivos que permitió la continuidad de la participación de actores uruguayos en la red transnacional de apoyo del "caso papeleras", aun en momentos de gran enfrentamiento binacional, fue un marco interpretativo latinoamericanista y antiimperialista que representa la evocación de un discurso surgido a comienzos del siglo xx en la región, el cual funciona en esta controversia como marco maestro. Tal discurso puede ser caracterizado como un contra-discurso neocolonial de los recursos naturales y como un discurso protoambientalista de origen latinoamericano.

Abstract　

This article focuses on a particular aspect, on a discursive level, of the so called "papeleras case", that is the environmental controversy on the border between Uruguay and Argentina due to the projected siting of two pulp mills at the Uruguayan city of Fray Bentos, initiated in 2003. We argue that one of the discursive elements that made possible the continued participation of Uruguayan actors in the transnational advocacy network in this case, even at moments of great bi-national tension, was a Latin American, anti-imperialist collective action framework that echoes a discourse emerged in the early twentieth century in the region; which in turn, works here as a master frame. This discourse may be characterized as a neocolonial counter-discourse of natural resources, and as a proto-environmentalist discourse originated in Latin America.

description: El propósito de este artículo es documentar e interpretar los términos del intercambio científico, epistolar y editorial protagonizado por Francisco Ayala y José Medina Echavarría, dos de los sociólogos más representativos del exilio español de 1939. Se analizarán los puentes de papel establecidos entre Argentina y México por estos dos autores. Ambos fueron actores, gestores y partícipes de un corredor de ideas que transportó una visión consensuada sobre la disciplina sociológica y sus necesidades.  Los dos portaron y representaron la tradición sociológica alemana en América Latina y trataron de introducirla desde diferentes instituciones, medios y latitudes. Ayala y Medina Echavarría ejercieron un papel decisivo en la circulación, emisión y recepción de las ideas sociológicas durante unos años en lo que se gestó el campo sociológico latinoamericano.

Abstract

The intention of this article is to document and to analyze the terms of the scientific, editorial and epistolary exchange led by Francisco Ayala and José Medina Echavarría, two of the most representative sociologists of the Spanish exile of 1939. The bridges of paper established between Argentina and Mexico by these two authors will be analyzed. Ayala and Medina Echavarría were actors, managers and participants in a corridor of ideas that transported a consensus view on the sociological discipline. Both authors carried and represented the sociological German tradition in Latin America and tried to introduce it from different institutions, means and latitudes. Ayala and Medina Echavarría had a decisive role in the circulation, emission or reception of sociological ideas for some years in what the sociological field in Latin America was created.

description: A finales del siglo xix los viajes ayudaron a consolidar el terreno cultural compartido que se estaba formando entre España y la Argentina. Constituyen un instrumento de análisis privilegiado para comprender la circulación de ideas que dio forma a los tópicos morales compartidos y para dar cuenta de la realidad política, cultura y social a ambas márgenes del Atlántico. En este trabajo se analizan los viajes realizados por tres emigrados españoles –Fernando López Benedito, Rafael Calzada y Francisco Grandmontagne–, y el papel que, a través de la noción de patria, jugaron en la conformación de este terreno.

Abstract

In the late 19th century, travels improved the cultural common ground that was emerging between Argentine and Spain. Travels, as experiences, are a privilege tool for understanding the circulation of ideas between these countries. They shaped sheared moral topics between them and were used to give an account of the political, cultural and social situation. Specifically, this article analyses three Spanish’s emigrates travels –Fernando Lopez Benedito, Rafael Calzada y Francisco Grandmontagne– in particularly the role played by the notion of patria in the consolidation of a common ground.

SnoVault and encodeD: A novel object based storage system and applications to ENCODE metadata
Creators: name: Hitz, Benjamin
Publisher: name: F1000Research
Year: 2016

description: The Encyclopedia of DNA elements (ENCODE) project is an ongoing collaborative effort [1–6] to create a comprehensive catalog of functional elements initiated shortly after the completion of the Human Genome Project . The current database exceeds 6500 experiments across more than 450 cell lines and tissues using a wide array of experimental techniques to study the chromatin structure, regulatory and transcriptional landscape of the HÆ sapiens and MÆ musculus genomes. All ENCODE experimental data, metadata, and associated computational analyses are submitted to the ENCODE Data Coordination Center (DCC) for validation, tracking, storage, unified processing, and distribution to community resources and the scientific community. As the volume of data increases, the identification and organization of experimental details becomes increasingly intricate and demands careful curation. The ENCODE DCC  has created a general purpose software system, known as SnoVault, that supports metadata and file submission, a database used for metadata storage, web pages for displaying the metadata and a robust API for querying the metadata. The software is fully open source, code and installation instructions can be found at: http://github.com/ENCODEDCC/snovault/ (for the generic database) and http://github.com/ENCODEDCC/ encoded/ to store genomic data in the manner of ENCODE. The core database engine, SnoVault (which is completely independent of ENCODE, genomic data, or bioinformatic data) has been released as a separate Python package.
Modeling wetland hydroperiod and community response for decision support in water resources management

description: Background/Questions/Methods
A study was undertaken to examine the potential effects of surface water withdrawals on the floodplain wetland vegetation communities of the St. Johns River in Florida.  Among the foci of the project were potential changes in the extent or placement of wetlands in the landscape and alterations in seasonal hydrologic patterns, which are critical to wetland species.  A geographic information system application (hydroperiod tool or HT) was used to estimate change in area-wide temporal and spatial patterns of inundation and water depth.   Input to the HT model is elevation data in the form of a digital elevation model and water levels (time series) derived from a suite of hydrologic models combining various water withdrawal rates, land use conditions, sea level and status of water management projects in the upper reaches of the St Johns River.  Intermediate steps within the tool involve interpolation of the point based hydrologic data to represent the water surface. Output from the HT were used to create metrics that relate to the depth, areal coverage and seasonality of wetland inundation – useful for understanding historical patterns of inundation and for comparing the various management (water withdrawal) scenarios.

Results/Conclusions
Two study areas in the upper river basin were evaluated, totaling 25,678 ha of herbaceous and woody wetland communities.  Withdrawal scenarios were compared to an empirical baseline data set based on 10 years of water surface elevation data.  Areas receiving inundation significantly less than historic levels were considered to be negatively impacted and therefore at risk of transition.  Potential effects were greatest under the full withdrawal scenario based on 1995 land use, without the regional water projects (27.5% of the total area negatively impacted).  Effects largely disappeared with scenarios based on future land use (2030) that incorporated regional water projects (3.82% of the total area impacted).  Implications of the change in habitat availability for wood stork nesting and foraging were explored.  Application of this relatively simple geographic information system method (the HT) is limited by the availability of accurate elevation data representing the wetland area, sufficient hydrologic data and current interpolation methods in the geographic information system.  On the other hand, the simplicity of the HT model approach may provide faster results compared to more highly parameterized models, which can be critical to water resource management agencies operating under limited time frames.
Assessing environmental drivers of DOC fluxes in the Shark River estuary: Modeling the effects of climate, water management, and salinity

description: Background/Question/Methods
The Florida Everglades, comprised of freshwater marshes and mangrove estuaries has undergone over a century of drainage and development.  Current restoration efforts aim to re-establish natural hydraulic connectivity and pre-drainage ecosystem function through increased freshwater delivery, improved water quality and seasonal timing. However, it is uncertain how restoration efforts will impact downstream areas, including Everglades National Park (ENP), especially with increasing pressure from sea level rise (SLR).  As the aquatic transport of carbon, primarily as dissolved organic carbon (DOC), plays a critical role in biogeochemical cycling and food-web dynamics, a long-term understanding of the drivers of this export are critical for predicting ecosystem response to large-scale changes like climate and management.   Monthly DOC fluxes were calculated for the Shark River (ENP) and interpreted in the context of potential environmental drivers using multi-variate methods to untangle the interconnected controls of DOC export.  This was followed with simple predictive modelling of fluxes in the context of climate change scenarios.  The approach was designed to answer two key knowledge gaps for ENP: (1) what are the patterns and drivers of long-term DOC fluxes and (2) how do climate change (SLR) and water management impact DOC export?

Results/Conclusions
Principle component analysis (PCA) of monthly (intra-annual) and yearly (inter-annual) data indicated that freshwater hydrology was the primary driver associated with DOC fluxes across monthly to yearly temporal scales.  Additional controls of DOC export included seasonal cycles, long-term climatic variations and extreme weather events, including hurricanes and droughts.  Stepwise linear regression selected 4 predictors of DOC flux: salinity, rainfall, inflows and the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) which explained 60.4%, 20.8%, 11.1% and 7.7% of model power, respectively for a final model predicting 84.1% of DOC flux variability (p<0.0001).  Scenarios based on climate change forecasts generally predicted decreased DOC flux, largely due to reduced freshwater availability to the estuary.
OncoSimulR: genetic simulation of cancer progression with arbitrary epistasis and mutator genes
Creators: name: Diaz-Uriarte, Ramon
Publisher: name: F1000Research
Year: 2016

description: OncoSimulR implements forward-in-time genetic simulations of diallelic loci in asexual populations, with special focus on cancer progression. Fitness can be defined as an arbitrary function of genetic interactions between multiple genes or modules of genes, including epistasis, restrictions in the order of accumulation of mutations, and order effects. Mutation rates can be made to differ between genes, and can be affected by (anti)mutator genes. Also available are sampling from single or multiple simulations, including single-cell sampling, plotting the parent-child relationships of the clones, and generating and plotting random fitness landscapes.

OncoSimulR is implemented in R and C++. Version 2.3.12 or higher available from BioConductor (http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/OncoSimulR.html) for Linux, Mac, and Windows under the GNU GPL license. GitHub repository at: https://github.com/rdiaz02/OncoSimul.
