description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have already demonstrated benefits for the treatment of cancer in several clinical studies, showing improved drug selectivity and efficacy. In particular, simultaneous targeting of prominent cancer antigens, such as EGF receptor (EGFR) and c-MET, by bsAbs has raised increasing interest for potentially circumventing receptor cross-talk and c-MET-mediated acquired resistance during anti-EGFR monotherapy. In this study, we combined the selectivity of EGFR × c-MET bsAbs with the potency of cytotoxic agents via bispecific antibody-toxin conjugation. Affinity-attenuated bispecific EGFR × c-MET antibody-drug conjugates demonstrated high in vitro selectivity toward tumor cells overexpressing both antigens and potent anti-tumor efficacy. Due to basal EGFR expression in the skin, ADCs targeting EGFR in general warrant early safety assessments. Reduction in EGFR affinity led to decreased toxicity in keratinocytes. Thus, the combination of bsAb affinity engineering with the concept of toxin conjugation may be a viable route to improve the safety profile of ADCs targeting ubiquitously expressed antigens.

description: A common perception in forest economics is that the celebrated ‘Faustmann formula’ was discovered in 1849 and that the ‘Faustmann rule’ or Faustmann-Pressler solution to the optimal rotation age was derived from it a decade later by Pressler. Recent research has significantly extended this view by showing that the economic ideas behind these innovations were presented already in the end of the seventeenth century in England during so-called financial revolution. In his remarkable writings in 1683 and 1701, John Houghton, a London-based editor and fellow of the Royal Society, explicitly recognized the opportunity cost of forest capital and compared forestry with other forms of land use employing calculations that are in line with modern capital and investment theory. In 1730, a competent land surveyor and accountant John Richards from Essex contributed to the development of this type of forest economic thought by calculating forest value under both intermittent and sustained yield management using discounted cash flow to infinity, and thus discovering the Faustmann formula over 100 years before Faustmann. It took quite a long time before the modern principles of forest and natural resource economics were rediscovered in the ‘scientific forestry’ that emerged in the German territorial states in the latter part of the eighteenth century. This delay was at least partially due to the fact that the development of economic thought followed quite different course in Central Europe than it did in England where extensive political and institutional changes led to the establishment of relatively modern financial and commercial markets already at the turn of the eighteenth century. This paper explores the early development of forest economic thought under the German ‘scientific forestry’ more closely than has been done previously and shows that a modern analytical perspective to the valuation of forests was presented also in the German discipline well before Faustmann. Moreover, there is evidence that a competent German forest mathematician, Johann Hossfeld, used differential calculus to produce the optimal cutting or rotation age almost 60 years before Pressler who in the natural resource economic literature has been regarded to anticipate marginal analysis.

description: The financial crisis that started in mid-2008 has led to a subsequent economic recession. Although officially declared over, global financial degradation may result in a ?double-dip? recession with no substantive relief in the near term. Consequently, fundamental shifts within global forestry and the forest industry sectors have taken place with disruptions, dislocations, and uncertainties felt through the entire chain from the forest to markets. This is the worst downturn for forest products markets since the first oil crisis in the 1970s. Manifestations have included decreased demand, fluctuating prices and changed exchange rates, increased competition, overcapacity, low profitability, wood supply problems, and competition for raw materials exacerbated by the emerging bio-based energy sector. Although the ability of the forest sector as a whole to experience strong growth during the recession and when recovery begins is doubtful, there are many actions that individual companies can take to create competitive opportunities during the crisis and solidify position when markets strengthen. This paper presents specific actions that can be taken to create or maintain competitive advantage across the forest sector supply chain in this time of crisis. Moving forward, companies will seek to create competitive advantages and in so doing they will adopt different strategic postures alongside making a variety of strategic adjustments. Although the future of the sector remains unclear, it is important to magnify some key areas at the intersection of economic recession and company responses. In this paper, we outline some key strategic considerations that may help companies both to prepare for and navigate through the crises that downward business cycles present. We begin with a suggestion for in-house business cycle forecasting capabilities to be adopted to better prepare companies for economic shocks. We then draw from previous research and briefly outline how various strategic postures during a recession can affect companies? post-recession performance. In the section that follows, our focus is on the leadership structures conducive to post-recession success, and finally, we discuss some key areas and strategies that can help ameliorate negative changes brought on by the Great Recession.

description: The forest transition refers to the change from decreasing to increasing in the forest area of a country. Where the forest cover reaches its minimum is called the turning point. At this point, the country does not deforest anymore. This paper studies the probability of occurrence of a turning point for a developing country, and then explain the level of forest remaining at this moment. Indeed, it is be strongly policy relevant and interesting to consider which variables determine the forest cover at the turning point. Why do some countries experience a turning point at 10% forest cover while other ones experience it at 30%? This paper allow to progress on the comprehension of the cumulative nature of deforestation along the development process. Moreover, it can help to strengthen public policies to fight against deforestation, by transposing the results to countries that have not yet observed a turning point, and thus affect the right variables to make the turning point occur earlier in time and higher in forest cover. Since only some countries are observing a turning point, the existence of a selection bias must be taken into account. A Heckman truncated model procedure is used.

description: To alleviate rural poverty, stimulate investment in forests, and improve forest conservation, the Chinese government enacted a policy leading to small individual holdings of forest lands that previously were administered by villages. Using data collected from 288 villages in eight provinces over three years, this paper measures the effect of the reform on forestation. Because villages had to vote on whether the reform would take effect, we are able to identify the causal effect of the reform by using an IV estimator based on the countywide decision to offer the reform package. We find an increase in forestation of 7.87% of the forest land in the year of the reform.

description: We use the extension of the method of recurrence plots to cross recurrence plots (CRP) which enables a nonlinear analysis of bivariate data. To quantify CRPs, we develop further three measures of complexity mainly basing on diagonal structures in CRPs. The CRP analysis of prototypical model systems with nonlinear interactions demonstrates that this technique enables to find these nonlinear interrelations from bivariate time series, whereas linear correlation tests do not. Applying the CRP analysis to climatological data, we find a complex relationship between rainfall and El Nino data.

description: Direct imaging of exo-Earths and search for life is one of the most exciting and challenging objectives for future space observatories. Segmented apertures in space will be required to reach the needed large diameters beyond the capabilities of current or planned launch vehicles. These apertures present additional challenges for high-contrast coronagraphy, not only in terms of static phasing but also in terms of their stability. The Pair-based Analytical model for Segmented Telescope Imaging from Space (PASTIS) was developed to model the effects of segment-level optical aberrations on the final image contrast. In this paper, we extend the original PASTIS propagation model from a purely analytical to a semi-analytical method, in which we substitute the use of analytical images with numerically simulated images. The inversion of this model yields a set of orthonormal modes that can be used to determine segment-level wavefront tolerances. We present results in the case of segment-level piston error applied to the baseline coronagraph design of LUVOIR A, with minimum and maximum wavefront error constraint between 56 pm and 290 pm per segment. The analysis is readily generalizable to other segment-level aberrations modes, and can also be expanded to establish stability tolerances for these missions.

description: Introduction: The objectives were to identify a latent factor of cognitive reserve (CR) assessed by self-rating of cognitively stimulating activities, to analyze the association between this factor and educational attainment, and to test whether CR moderates the association between polysubstance use and neurocognitive disorder (NCD). Methods: Cross-sectional data of 753 participants was collected in Mexico City. A questionnaire for self-rating of stimulating activities (work/education, leisure, physical, social, usual- and current environments) was designed. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed to test unifactoriality. This CR factor was then used within a structural equation model of moderation between recent- and years of substance use and indicators of NCD (Montreal Cognitive Assessment and an interview for subjective cognitive deficits). Results: We found acceptable goodness-of-fit values for the unifactorial model, but no association of this factor with educational attainment, nor with recent- and years of substance use (suggesting independence of CR and severity of neuropathology). We did not find a moderation effect of CR between substance use and indicators of NCD; CR was negatively associated with subjective cognitive deficits only. Conclusions: Moderation effect of self-rated CR should be further tested using direct measures of substance-induced neuropathology. Measurement of self-rated CR may complement self-reported cognitive examination.

description: Over the past few decades, Participatory Forest Management (PFM) has emerged as a key strategy internationally. Following the recognition that centralized and expert-dependent forest management practices have been unsuccessful in halting deforestation, the government of Ethiopia, with assistance from international donors, has been implementing PFM pioneer projects since the early 1990’s. The experiment is based on the assumption that participation of local communities, which are the major stakeholders using the forest resources, is essential for reversing the de facto open access to forests. The PFM pilot projects have used a diversity of implementation strategies, however, that need to be evaluated before a national PFM strategy can be formulated. The present paper conducts an evaluation of the institutional set up and the outcomes of seven pioneer old PFM sites distributed in Oromia and Southern Nations Nationalities and People Regional states. Outcomes are assessed as forest users’ perceived changes (before and after pioneer projects) in (1) ownership feeling over the resource (2) change in forest condition (3) change in livelihood of members, and (4) stability of the PFM institutions. Qualitative data was collected in focus group discussions, semi-structured and key informants interviews. Our findings indicate that in most sites the forest cover and ownership feelings of the community have improved after introduction of PFM. Post project assessment, however, shows that weak law enforcement, revocation of PFM agreements by the government, high project staff turnover and inequitable forest benefit distribution endangers the sustainability of PFM in Ethiopian pioneer projects. The paper argues that scaling up PFM without consideration for these issues risks multiplying mistakes.

description: The introduction of a potentially disruptive technology into a mature multisided ecosystem often faces a seemingly dilemmatic challenge: persuading a critical mass of incumbents to support the technology that might eventually disrupt them. We analyse this apparently perplexing phenomenon under the lens of a global coordination game of incomplete public and private information; and more precisely an adaptation of a game of regime change. Incumbents can decide to support or not the potential disruptor, who becomes successful only if a sufficient mass of supporters is attained. The proposed model assumes a multi-round game where each round gives the opportunity for yet-not-supporting incumbents to irrevocably side with the potential disruptor. Only a two-round game is detailed, while elements for generalization to an arbitrary number of rounds are suggested. The first round constitutes a rather typical—i.e., extensively scrutinized in the literature—global game, for which it has already formally been established that a monotone equilibrium exists and is unique provided an adequate precision of the information structure. Subsequently, when making their decision during the second round, incumbents gain additional information derived from the first round. Although we do not formally prove the results, we conducted an extensive set of simulations revealing that the new information leads to either no equilibrium or a multiplicity of equilibria. Bearing in mind that our model is overly stylized, those observations suggest that the second round is prone to coordination failure; whereas the precision of information plays an essential role during the first round for incumbents to make an informed decision. It follows that a wise strategy consists for the potential disruptor in investing, at the very outset, in communicating precise information so as to ensure the existence of a unique equilibrium and, should the underlying fundamentals allow, succeed in the first round.

description: Introduction: Feelings of shame may be an important factor implicated in the onset and maintenance of hallucination (or hearing voices). Shame has been shown to increase trauma-related intrusions and avoidance and may reinforce negative beliefs about the self, which in turn may contribute to hallucinations in clinical and non-clinical populations. To our knowledge, no study has so far explored the role of shame in hallucination-proneness. Therefore, the main goal of the present study is to explore the mediation role of shame, trauma-related intrusions and avoidance in the association between childhood trauma and hallucination-proneness. Methods: Self-report questionnaires were used to assess past traumatic experiences, trauma-related symptoms, shame, and hallucination proneness in 175 participants from the general population. Results: Mediation analyses (joint-significance test and Monte Carlo test) showed that both shame and intrusions mediated the association between childhood trauma and hallucination-proneness. Conclusions: Our results reinforce the importance of considering previous experiences of trauma and trauma-related symptoms, including feelings of shame in individuals experiencing hallucinations. Moreover, this study reinforces previous studies showing some preliminary evidence that compassion-focused therapy, whose primary goal is to reduce shame by increasing self-compassion, could have a significant effect on voices whose content is hostile.

description: This paper studies the attitude control of a satellite in three-axis by thrusters. The mathematical model of attitude dynamics and kinematics of the satellite is represented as a switched system with sub-systems. Each sub-system is defined according to on/off thrusters state. A training method based on dynamic programming is utilized which can find the appropriate switching between sub-systems such that a cost function is optimized. Furthermore to extend the solution for a specific domain of interest neural network is used for approximating the cost function with basis functions. The training method is offline and it finds the optimal weights of basis functions which can be used to find optimal switching. It is shown that the proposed method can execute a maneuver in fixed final time and bring the attitude to final desired condition. Moreover, the proposed method is robust against uncertainties in system modeling. Finally, it is shown that the control scheme can be used to design low cost attitude control unit for micro-satellite or as a backup unit.

NORTH BY NORTHEAST: TOWARDS AN ASIAN-ARCTIC REGION

Publisher: name: Apollo - University of Cambridge Repository

description: While the Arctic is on the front lines of climate change, it is also on the front lines of experiments in governance. Chinese, Japanese, and Korean interest in the Arctic is pressuring the Arctic Council, the region’s preeminent multilateral organization, to reconsider how it cooperates with states traditionally perceived as non-Arctic. The seafaring states of China, Japan, and Korea have commercial interests in the Arctic involving shipping, hydrocarbons, and fisheries. Yet questions of identity and power projection are also paramount, as the Arctic allows the Northeast Asian countries to display their growing capabilities through scientific endeavors and maritime transits. Several of the Arctic Council’s member states, namely Canada and Russia, assertively promote national sovereignty and territoriallyascribed sovereignty in the region. But networks and relations are crucial aspects of activities in the circumpolar north, especially when scientific collaboration and natural resource extraction require large amounts of capital and cooperation. Flows of capital, goods, and people are connecting Chinese consumers with mineral deposits in Greenland and Korean engineers with Russian oil oligarchs. At the same time, these flows do not mean that we should constrain our thinking about the Arctic to one side of the territory-network dichotomy. China promotes the Arctic as a global commons while it simultaneously claims to be a near- Arctic state, revealing the tension between privileging flows and territory in the circumpolar north. I analyze trade statistics, rhetorical framings, and scientific endeavors to understand how the Northeast Asian countries are turning their interests in the Arctic into national identities and how economic interests in the North Pacific – the Arctic near abroad of China, Japan, and Korea – could eventually translate into region building measures and even regional identities.
Neutrino Observations from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory

description: The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) is a water imaging Cherenkov detector. Its usage of 1000 metric tons of D$_{2}$O as target allows the SNO detector to make a solar-model independent test of the neutrino oscillation hypothesis by simultaneously measuring the solar $ν_{e}$ flux and the total flux of all active neutrino species. Solar neutrinos from the decay of $^{8}$B have been detected at SNO by the charged-current (CC) interaction on the deuteron and by the elastic scattering (ES) of electrons. While the CC reaction is sensitive exclusively to $ν_{e}$, the ES reaction also has a small sensitivity to $ν_μ$ and $ν_τ$. In this paper, recent solar neutrino results from the SNO experiment are presented. It is demonstrated that the solar flux from $^{8}$B decay as measured from the ES reaction rate under the no-oscillation assumption is consistent with the high precision ES measurement by the Super-Kamiokande experiment. The $ν_{e}$ flux deduced from the CC reaction rate in SNO differs from the Super-Kamiokande ES results by 3.3$sigma$. This is evidence for an active neutrino component, in additional to $ν_{e}$, in the solar neutrino flux. These results also allow the first experimental determination of the total active $^{8}$B neutrino flux from the Sun, and is found to be in good agreement with solar model predictions.

Dynamics of small grains in transitional discs

description: Transitional discs have central regions characterised by significant depletion of both dust and gas compared to younger, optically-thick discs. However, gas and dust are not depleted by equal amounts: gas surface densities are typically reduced by factors of $\sim 100$, but small dust grains are sometimes depleted by far larger factors, to the point of being undetectable. While this extreme dust depletion is often attributed to planet formation, in this paper we show that another physical mechanism is possible: expulsion of grains from the disc by radiation pressure. We explore this mechanism using 2D simulations of dust dynamics, simultaneously solving the equation of radiative transfer with the evolution equations for dust diffusion and advection under the combined effects of stellar radiation and hydrodynamic interaction with a turbulent, accreting background gas disc. We show that, in transition discs that are depleted in both gas and dust fraction by factors of $\sim 100-1000$ compared to minimum mass Solar nebular values, and where the ratio of accretion rate to stellar luminosity is low ($\dot{M}/L \lesssim 10^{-10}$ $M_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$ $L_\odot^{-1}$), radiative clearing of any remaining $\sim 0.5$ $μ$m and larger grains is both rapid and inevitable. The process is size-dependent, with smaller grains removed fastest and larger ones persisting for longer times. Our proposed mechanism thus naturally explains the extreme depletion of small grains commonly-found in transition discs. We further suggest that the dependence of this mechanism on grain size and optical properties may explain some of the unusual grain properties recently discovered in a number of transition discs. The simulation code we develop is freely available.

The list is a result of follow-up spectroscopy conducted with the 2.2m CAHA and 4m Kitt Peak telescopes in 1999. The data of this snap-shot spectroscopy survey confirmed 166 emission-line objects out of 209 observed candidates and allowed their quantitative spectral classification and redshift determination. We could classify 98 emission-line objects as BCG/HII galaxies or probable BCGs, 5 -- as QSOs, 3 - as Seyfert galaxies, 2 - as super-associations in subluminous spiral galaxies. 25 low-excitation objects were classified as starburst nuclei (SBN), 24 as dwarf amorphous nuclei starburst galaxies (DANS) and 3 as LINERs. Due to low signal-to-noise ratio we could not classify 6 ELGs. Furthermore, for another 4 galaxies we did not detect any significant emission lines. For 131 emission-line galaxies, the redshifts and/or line intensities are determined for the first time. For the remaining 30 previously known ELGs we give either improved data of the line intensities or some independent measurements.

Modelling meltwater drainage in the Paakitsoq region, western Greenland, and its response to 21st century climate change
Creators: name: Mayaud, Jerome
Publisher: name: Apollo - University of Cambridge Repository
Year: 2012

description: Recent studies suggest that the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) is thinning rapidly and contains sufficient water equivalent to raise global sea levels by ~7m. The dynamic response of ice sheets to rising air temperatures has been well documented, whereby increased surface meltwater accessing the ice sheet bed results in high subglacial water pressures that lubricate the bed and enhance basal motion. This could in turn drastically amplify the contribution of GrIS to sea-level rise (SLR). However, the inadequate formulation of ice dynamics in current ice-sheet models was identified as the largest source of uncertainty in SLR projections in the latest IPCC AR4 report. This thesis focuses on the supraglacial and subglacial hydrology of the Paakitsoq region in western Greenland to provide an insight into present-day dynamic behaviour of the ice sheet, and its potential response to climatic warming over the 21st century. Surface meltwater production and routing for 2005 are simulated using a surface mass balance model and a positive-degree day model, which in turn provides the input to a distributed, physically based model of subglacial drainage applied to Paakitsoq. The drainage model is then forced with future climate scenarios based on the IPCC’s new framework of Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs). The simulations produce a distinctive split in “marginal” and “inland” drainage behaviour at Paakitsoq, whereby the inland system is typified by low discharge magnitudes, high water pressures and small conduit CSAs, and the marginal system displays high discharge, mid to low pressures and higher conduit CSAs. Comparisons between measured and modelled proglacial discharge suggest that the appropriate k factor (the ratio of water pressure to ice overburden pressure) for modelling the study system is between 0.925 and 0.95. The most extreme climate scenario predicts a ~7oC rise from 2010 to 2100, which will result in proglacial discharge increasing by the end of the 21st century to levels four times greater than today. However, significant inter-annual variability in melt production at Paakitsoq will probably lead to high-melt years whose peak subglacial discharges may be even more intense. This could cause considerable inland migration of channelised behaviour. The implications for future ice dynamics in the Paakitsoq region are considered.

description: We complete construction of a catalog containing improved astrometry and new optical/infrared photometry for the vast majority of NLTT stars lying in the overlap of regions covered by POSS I and by the second incremental 2MASS release, approximately 44% of the sky. The epoch 2000 positions are typically accurate to 130 mas, the proper motions to 5.5 mas/yr, and the V-J colors to 0.25 mag. Relative proper motions of binary components are measured to 3 mas/yr. The false identification rate is ~1% for 11 < V < 18 and substantially less at brighter magnitudes. These improvements permit the construction of a reduced proper motion diagram that, for the first time, allows one to classify NLTT stars into main-sequence (MS) stars, subdwarfs (SDs), and white dwarfs (WDs). We in turn use this diagram to analyze the properties of both our catalog and the NLTT catalog on which it is based. In sharp contrast to popular belief, we find that NLTT incompleteness in the plane is almost completely concentrated in MS stars, and that SDs and WDs are detected almost uniformly over the sky DEC > -33 deg. Our catalog will therefore provide a powerful tool to probe these populations statistically, as well as to reliably identify individual SDs and WDs.
description: 16 figures. We will make the revised NLTT publicly available on acceptance of the paper, or no later than July 18, 2002

description: An automated method for tracking the calving margin positions of tidewater glaciers from MODIS imagery was developed, allowing for the recording of high temporal resolution change over 24 glaciers. Results compared well to those of other studies which have been limited in either temporal or spatial resolution by more labour intensive methods. Many glaciers exhibited a strong sensitivity to a seasonal forcing. Over 2002 to 2005, 14 of the glaciers retreated by over 0.5 km, the largest with a retreat of 5.0 km. Total recovery during 2005 to 2008 was 21% of previous retreat. During the study period both surrounding sea and air surface temperatures (SSTs and SATs) gradually increased by 2° and 1.5° C respectively until mid 2004, after which mean annual SAT dropped by 4° C and SSTs remained high, suggesting a dominant influence of SATs. Margin positions appeared to switch between stable bathymetric states, triggered by temperature changes. The rapid stepped retreats observed over short timescales indicate that future outlet glacier response to climate change is likely to be non-linear and that the findings of mass balance studies based upon comparisons between specific years may not be robust. Expanding this study over the whole ice sheet has been shown to be feasible and would depict margin changes in unprecedented spatio-temporal detail.

description: The forest literature on poverty dynamics in forest reliant communities in developing countries is almost entirely based on cross-sectional assessments of the relative contribution of forest to total household income. These snap-shot pictures provide information on the current consumption and gap filling functions of forests but they do not allow an analysis and understanding of the role of forests in contributing towards escaping poverty. To address this issue, we use panel income data collected quarterly in 2006 and 2009 in the same households (n=416) in three sites in Nepal. The data is used to develop dynamic models which categorize households with regards to their expected wealth status and assess the weight of the eight major income sources in each category. Preliminary analyses show that 32 households moved into poverty, 98 moved out of poverty, 42 remained poor and 274 households remained non-poor. The main income source for households that became poor was livestock, with forest income coming in fourth both in 2006 and 2009. For those who moved out of poverty, the main income source was livestock in 2006 and remittances in 2009. Forest income dropped from the fourth to the seventh most important income source. For those who remained non-poor, their main income source was business in both years. Forest income dropped from sixth to the seventh most important source of income. Lastly, for those who remained poor, the main income source was wages in 2006 and livestock in 2009. Forest income dropped from the third to the sixth most important income source. Forest plays a minor role for most households, and does not appear to play any significant role in allowing households to move out of poverty. Thus forests appear more important in preventing than reducing poverty. There is also a trend favouring income sources such as remittances, livestock and business income. This could be as a result of increased forest restrictions or increased opportunities in other income sectors.

description: Leishmaniasis is a vector-borne disease among the 10 most Neglected Tropical Diseases with diverse clinical manifestations caused by protozoan parasites of the Leishmania genus. Around 80% of leishmaniasis cases are found in the Old World affecting populations mainly in low and middle-income countries. Its control relies mostly on chemotherapy which still presents many drawbacks. Natural products may offer an inexhaustible source of chemical diversity with therapeutic potential. Despite the lack of knowledge on traditional products with activity against Leishmania parasites, many reports describe the search for natural extracts and compounds with antileishmanial properties against promastigote and amastigote parasite forms. This review summarizes the research of 74 publications of the last decade (2008–2018) focused on the identification of endemic plant-derived products that are active against Old World Leishmania parasites responsible for cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis. The present review combines data on antileishmanial activity of 423 plants species, belonging to 94 different families, including a large range of crude extracts which lead to the isolation of 86 active compounds. Most studied plants came from Asia and most promising plant families for antileishmanial activity were Asteraceae and Lamiaceae. From the chemical point of view, terpenoids were the most frequently isolated natural products. These studies suggest that natural products isolated from Old World flora are a rich source of new chemical scaffolds for future leishmaniasis treatment as well as for other Neglected Tropical Diseases warranting further investigation.

description: The second largest outbreak of Ebolavirus is currently ongoing in Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and is characterized by lack of compliance with recommended control measures. Trusted local health agents, including medical students, may be valuable social mobilizers in this challenging context. We report a student-led educational campaign to increase community awareness and engagement in EVD control efforts, with evaluation of student and community satisfaction. The outreach was conducted in November 2018, involving 600 students and reaching 5–10,000 community members. Key messages included: ‘Ebola exists in Butembo’ and ‘Bring infected family members to the Ebola Treatment Unit.’ Medical students (n = 355) and community participants (n = 319) evaluated the campaign. Satisfaction was high: 320 (90%) students agreed that medical students could contribute to the EVD response effort, and 233 (73%) community members agreed that the students had helped them understand Ebola in the area. Lower satisfaction scores were associated with intention to hide infected family member from authorities (ρ = −0.25, p
