description: In den letzten Jahren gewann die Durchflusschemie in der industriellen Anwendung zunehmend an Bedeutung und wird mittlerweile in der Pharma- und Feinchemikalienindustrie eingesetzt. Durch den hervorragenden Masse- und Wärmetransfer sowie die Möglichkeiten einer automatisierten in-line Überwachung und Analyse wird eine unkomplizierte Übertragung vom Labormaßstab zum Produktionsmaßstab ermöglicht. Zukünftig wird die Durchflusschemie in vielen weiteren Bereichen der chemischen Industrie Einzug halten und diese auf Pilotanlagen übertragen bzw. in batch-Prozesse integriert werden. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden die etablierten Durchflusssysteme für Hochdruck- und Hochtemperaturreaktionen auf die CLAISEN-Umlagerung von elektronisch wenig reaktiven Allylphenylether-Derivaten angewandt. In diesem Zusammenhang wurde der Einfluss von nahkritischem Wasser auf die CLAISEN-Umlagerung in Abhängigkeit von den jeweiligen Substituenten untersucht. Nach weiteren Allylierungsstudien wurde für das unter batch-Bedingungen schwer herstellbare 2 Allyl 4,6 difluorphenol ein Zweistufenprozess in Gegenwart von nahkritischem Wasser entwickelt. Ein ähnliches Durchflusssystem basierend auf der induktiven Erwärmung wurde für die (natürliche) Oxidation von Eugenol/Isoeugenol zu Vanillin eingesetzt. Die Herausforderung bestand darin, den Eintrag oxidativer Gase in ein Durchflusssystem zu optimieren und dieses hinsichtlich einer späteren industriellen Anwendung zu entwickeln. Für die Validierung von Hypothesen unter präbiotischen Bedingungen wurde ein variabel einsetzbares Durchflusssystem zur Simulation präbiotischer Bedingungen eingesetzt. Hierfür konnte eine Analysenmethode für die Detektion flüchtiger organischer Verbindungen etabliert werden und die katalytische Aktivität verschiedener Reaktorsysteme durch einen Hastelloy C-22 Reaktor auf ein Minimum reduziert werden. Des Weiteren wurden Imidazoliumsalze hergestellt und diese auf ihre antibakterielle Wirkung gegenüber S. aureus und A. actinomycetemcomitans untersucht.

description: There is limited work, to date, in which the potential performance-enhancing effects of Advanced Footwear Technology (AFT) in the female elite athlete has been considered. This study aimed to retrospectively explore publicly available race data for a marathon, half-marathon, and 10-km elite events to analyse the effect of AFT, along with athlete and event characteristics, to determine the effect on female running performance. Race performance times for the top 20 female athletes within the world were extracted from 1990 to 2020 (n = 1722), along with athlete and event characteristics from 2010 to 2020 (n = 660). Data for race shoes were available for 655 of the 660 performances. The changes in grouped mean performance times over the years that AFT had been adopted were compared with the grouped mean of the corresponding number of years immediately prior show marathon, half-marathon, and 10-km performance times were 1.7, 1.72, and 1.75% (p < 0.001, pη2 > 0.220) faster during the AFT period. Repeated performance analysis comparing the improvement in race times between the control group and athletes who adopted AFT showed athletes who adopted AFT improved significantly more over the marathon (2.64%, p < 0.001) and half-marathon (1.67%, p < 0.002). Advanced Footwear Technology correlated (r > 0.50) with improvements in the marathon and half-marathon, but not the 10-km. Based on multiple regression modelling, it can be suggested that wearing AFT improves marathon race time by 78 s (0.93%), and half-marathon race time by 28 s (0.71%). Based on these results, we observe a small but meaningful performance-enhancing effect of AFT within elite female athletes.

description: The South Pole Telescope (SPT) has probed an expanded angular range of the CMB temperature power spectrum. Their recent analysis of the latest cosmological data prefers nonzero neutrino masses, mnu = 0.32+-0.11 eV. This result, if confirmed by the upcoming Planck data, has deep implications on the discovery of the nature of neutrinos. In particular, the values of the effective neutrino mass involved in neutrinoless double beta decay (bb0nu) are severely constrained for both the direct and inverse hierarchy, making a discovery much more likely. In this paper, we focus in xenon-based bb0nu experiments, on the double grounds of their good performance and the suitability of the technology to large-mass scaling. We show that the current generation, with effective masses in the range of 100 kg and conceivable exposures in the range of 500 kg year, could already have a sizable opportunity to observe bb0nu events, and their combined discovery potential is quite large. The next generation, with an exposure in the range of 10 ton year, would have a much more enhanced sensitivity, in particular due to the very low specific background that all the xenon technologies (liquid xenon, high-pressure xenon and xenon dissolved in liquid scintillator) can achieve. In addition, a high-pressure xenon gas TPC also features superb energy resolution. We show that such detector can fully explore the range of allowed effective Majorana masses, thus making a discovery very likely.

description: The premium football boot is commonly only designed, tested, and manufactured for adult male players. Footwear worn by academy players is therefore not designed with growing athletes in focus. The study objective was therefore to assess the medical staffs’ perception of football boot fit and their interactions with player’s football boots. Medical staff from academy male players from elite category 1 and 2 football academies in the United Kingdom (UK) were surveyed using an validated online survey. Descriptive analysis and thematic analysis of the open ended question were conducted. A total of 49 responses were received of which five responses were removed as they did not meet the inclusion criteria. Only one responder reported no complications with football boots for their academy players. The most reported area of concern in relation to players complain of pain/discomfort and/or fit in their football boots was the heel region (76%). Common concerns included blisters/corns/rubbing, sizing issues, adaptation issues with frequent change of boots, and players prioritizing aesthetics over fit and comfort. Education of players was also desired. The findings of this study highlight the desire for tailored footwear education and assessment programmes. The study also highlighted key concerns about injuries, fit, and performance not currently supported by research.

description: We have monitored 20 Sun-like stars in the Kepler field-of-view for excess flux with the FIES spectrograph on the Nordic Optical Telescope since the launch of Kepler spacecraft in 2009. These 20 stars were selected based on their asteroseismic properties to sample the parameter space (effective temperature, surface gravity, activity level etc.) around the Sun. Though the ultimate goal is to improve stellar dynamo models, we focus the present paper on the combination of space-based and ground-based observations can be used to test the age-rotation-activity relations. In this paper we describe the considerations behind the selection of these 20 Sun-like stars and present an initial asteroseismic analysis, which includes stellar age estimates. We also describe the observations from the Nordic Optical Telescope and present mean values of measured excess fluxes. These measurements are combined with estimates of the rotation periods obtained from a simple analysis of the modulation in photometric observations from Kepler caused by starspots, and asteroseismic determinations of stellar ages, to test relations between between age, rotation and activity.

description: Archäologen wie auch Einrichtungen des Kulturerbes und der Denkmalpflege sind gegenwärtig zunehmend bemüht, ihre Datenbestände, die bislang nur einem kleinen Kreis von Spezialisten zugänglich waren, auch für eine breite akademische Forschung und die interessierte Öffentlichkeit zu öffnen. Um dieses Ziel möglichst effektiv zu erreichen, werden vernetzte Infrastrukturen und Softwaretools benötigt, die Nutzer bei der Suche und Auswertung von gefundenen Begriffen und Konzepten unterstützen – insbesondere auch deshalb, weil diese in heterogenen Datensammlungen unterschiedlich verwendet werden. Unterschiedliche Personen und Fachdisziplinen können für dasselbe Konzept verschiedene Wörter benutzen oder sie arbeiten mit voneinander abweichenden Vorstellungen. Diese terminologisch-konzeptuelle Vielfalt stellt unausweichlich eine Hürde dar, die den Datenzugriff für Forscher oder die Allgemeinheit erheblich erschwert.
Ein praktischer Ansatz zur Lösung dieses Problems, der in den Projekten STAR, STELLAR und SENESCHAL verfolgt wurde, beruht auf der Anwendung des W3C SKOS Standards zur Integration von kontrollierten Vokabularen und dem Referenzmodell CIDOC-CRM (siehe Referenzen). Als Ergebnis liegen nun mehrere nationale Vokabularien zum Kulturerbe als SKOS-basierte Versionen vor, die über die Webseite HeritageData.org (s. Ref.) aufgerufen werden können.Der Beitrag diskutiert einige Barrieren und Herausforderungen, die während der Entwicklung einer modernen Linked Open Data Ressource auftraten, und zeigt die Potentiale für künftige Entwicklungen in diesem Bereich auf.
description: Archaeologists, along with cultural heritage and memory institutions generally are seeking to open up databases, and repositories of digitised items, previously confined to specialists, for a wider academic and general audience. But to do so most effectively requires joined up infrastructures and tools to help formulate and refine searches and navigate through the information space of concepts used to describe different collections. Different people and domains use different words for the same concept or may employ slightly different concepts and this ‘vocabulary problem’ is inevitably a barrier to broadening scholarly, let alone wider access.
Practical work in tackling such issues has used the W3C SKOS standard for incorporating controlled terminologies along with the CIDOC CRM in the STAR, STELLAR and SENESCHAL projects (see ref.), leading to SKOS based versions of national cultural heritage domain controlled vocabularies and the publishing of these as Linked Open Data via the HeritageData.org web site (see ref.). This paper will discuss some of the barriers and issues encountered while developing some current ‘state of the art’ Linked Open Data resources for cultural heritage and consider important opportunities for the development of such LOD resources for the future
title: Subjektivische Paradigmen und Religiosität – eine soziologische Ergänzung des paläogenetischen Ansatzes
Creators: name: Vosteen, Markus
Publisher: name: University Library Heidelberg
Year: 2015

description: Der 2014 in dieser Zeitschrift vorgestellten biologischen Erklärung des Ursprungs der Religiosität wird hier eine soziologische Ergänzung an die Seite gestellt. Als Selektionsvorteil, der sich durch eine genetische Veranlagung ergibt, wird die Instinktreduktion menschlicher Neonaten vorgeschlagen. Diese könnte zusammen mit einer in der nachgeburtlichen Ontogenese jedes Individuums entstehenden subjektivischen Weltansicht (sog. historisch-genetische Theorie) zur Entstehung von Religionen führen. Daraus wird gefolgert, dass es unwahrscheinlich ist, dass frühe Arten der Religiosität an Wirtschaftsweisen gekoppelt sind – eine evolutionäre Trennung in Auftreten des Animismus bei Wildbeutern und Götterglaube in Bauernkulturen lässt sich nicht vornehmen. Ethnologische Befunde stützen diese Interpretation.
description: The biological explanation for the origin of religiosity presented in this journal in 2014 is here supplemented by a sociological approach. It is proposed that the reduction of instincts in human neonates provides a selective advantage resulting from a genetic predisposition. This reduction of instincts, combined with a subjective world-view which develops in the postnatal ontogenesis of every individual (the so-called historico-genetic theory), could lead to the origin of religions. This leads to the conclusion that it is unlikely that early forms of religiosity are dependent on economic systems – an evolutionary separation into the occurrence of animism in hunter-gatherer societies and the belief in gods in agricultural societies is not possible. This interpretation is supported by ethnographic evidence.

description: Various concepts for the comparison of countries by patent indicators have been developed for the comparison of countries based on patent indicators. These concepts are generally based on the application of patents in several important markets or the family size of patent applications. A specific observation is the limited transfer of PCT applications of Chinese origin, affecting all these concepts. Transnational patents prove to be a convenient and appropriate tool for making country comparisons by technology, particularly with respect to adequately consider China’s specific patent behaviour. Therefore the phenomenon of limited transfer of China’s PCT applications is analysed for transnational patents. This observation can be associated with lower patent values or with a decreasing export dynamic. The Chinese transfer rates vary considerably by technology as well as by the reason for lower transfer rates. It proves to be more adequate to take limited transfer rates into account. © 2021, The Author(s).

description: Running shoes are often considered essential to participate in running. Runners may look for recommendations from friends, specialty running stores, and healthcare professionals when selecting shoes. Despite the existence of shoe prescription guidelines, these recommendations are often not evidence-based or designed with runners’ preferences in mind. This review aims to synthesize original research that identifies how road runners select running shoes. Following PROSPERO registration (CRD42021242523), the PubMed®, Scopus®, Web of Science®, and SPORTDiscus™ electronic databases were systematically searched in March 2021, and monitored until 1 February 2022. Original research that identified factors influencing running shoe selection in road runners published in English were included. Data were qualitatively synthesized. Seven studies representing 1947 road runners were included, and conducted either online, in laboratories, or via interview. Forty influencing factors were identified and thematically sub-grouped into five categories: subjective, shoe-specific characteristics, market features, peer evaluation, and runner characteristics. Comfort, cushioning, fit, and price were cited most frequently as influential factors in road runners’ footwear selection. Most of the studies reviewed were not specifically designed to address the research question of this review. Lack of consistent definitions and varying research methods are found across studies. There is limited research targeting the factors that influence running shoe selection. Comfort and cushioning appear to be the most important factors in shoe selection, although the relationship between both variables may confound their individual importance. Runners also consider fit, price, and several other factors when selecting shoes. Shoe choice remains relatively unexplored, with no running shoe selection study conducted in store.

THE RNA BINDING PROTEIN ZC3H10 COUPLES MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION AND IRON METABOLISM
Creators: name: AUDANO, MATTEO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2017

description: Mitochondria play a crucial role in energy metabolism. Mitochondria have their own genome (mtDNA), whose replication and transcription are mainly regulated by the mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam). Recent researches demonstrate how mitochondria participate to a large number of cellular processes like cell cycle and differentiation. Our goal is to identify new mitochondrial regulators to light up the molecular mechanisms underlying mitochondrial function biology. We used a high throughput screening in 293 cells in order to identify positive mitochondrial regulators. By these means, we identified Zinc Finger CCCH-type containing 10 (Zc3h10) as the best hit. Following experiments demonstrated that Zc3h10 knockdown decreased mitochondrial function and differentiation in myotubes. RNA immunoprecipitation assay indicates that Zc3h10 is able to bind 410 transcripts. Several target genes are involved in energy metabolism and iron balance. Notably, Zc3h10 downregulation in C2C12 leads to iron overload while its overexpression restores ferric ion content to control levels. Collectively, our findings annotate Zc3h10 as a new mitochondrial regulator in skeletal muscle.

description: The surface structure of the prototypical topological insulator Bi2Se3 is determined by low-energy electron diffraction and surface X-ray diffraction at room temperature. Both approaches show that the crystal is terminated by an intact quintuple layer. Specifically, an alternative termination by a bismuth bilayer is ruled out. Surface relaxations obtained by both techniques are in good agreement with each other and found to be small. This includes the relaxation of the van der Waals gap between the first two quintuple layers.
NEW SEMICLASSICAL THEORIES FOR VIBRATIONAL SPECTROSCOPY
Creators: name: DI LIBERTO, GIOVANNI
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2019

description: The main goal of this doctoral work was to develop theoretical advances of the semiclassical theory applied to molecular spectroscopy. In particular, the attention was centered at the coherent states based Time Averaging Semiclassical Initial Value Representation (TA-SCIVR) approximation to the vibrational spectral density. This approach is a solid way to access accurate vibrational spectra of molecular systems at a quantum approximate level. Nevertheless, it is affected by some criticalities as numerical issues and the so-called curse of dimensionality problem. Both represent an important stumbling block for the exploitation of the methodology towards molecules of increasing dimensions and complexity, preventing its application to general problems in the vibrational spectroscopy field. In my doctoral work we tried to face both issues, taming the numerical issues of the spectral density by introducing analytic and numerical approximations, and later developing with the group the Divide and Conquer Semiclassical dynamics (DC-SCIVR), a method which exploits the standard semiclassical formalism, but it works in reduced dimensional subspaces, with the aim of overcoming the curse of dimensionality. The advances first have been tested on simple molecules and then they have been employed to study spectroscopic relevant molecules. Main results show that it is possible to recover vibrational spectra even of those molecules affected by significant numerical issues, as well as high-dimensional ones, retaining the same accuracy of TA-SCIVR. In this thesis I first present some basics of the Semiclassical theory, with focus on vibrational spectroscopy, and then are shown the advances proposed, with applications on some relevant molecular systems in vibrational spectroscopy as supramolecular systems made by clusters of water and protonated glycine dimer, or high-dimensional molecules as benzene and C60.
Chern insulators from heavy atoms on magnetic substrates

description: We propose searching for Chern insulators by depositing atomic layers of elements with large spin-orbit coupling (e.g., Bi) on the surface of a magnetic insulator. We argue that such systems will typically have isolated surface bands with non-zero Chern numbers. If these overlap in energy, a metallic surface with large anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) will result; if not, a Chern-insulator state will typically occur. Thus, our search strategy reduces to looking for examples having the Fermi level in a global gap extending across the entire Brillouin zone. We verify this search strategy and identify several candidate systems by using first-principles calculations to compute the Chern number and AHC of a large number of such systems on MnTe, MnSe, and EuS surfaces. Our search reveals several promising Chern insulators with gaps of up to 140\,meV.

description: Heel-to-toe drop (HTD) values may modify the running biomechanics. However, more than twenty additional footwear characteristics may contribute to this too. The aim of this review was to identify and systematise the specific effects caused by different HTDs on running biomechanics. A systematic search was carried out in seven online databases and Footwear Science according to PRISMA protocol for studies that included the practice of endurance running in running shoes with different HTD types. A modified Downs and Black checklist was used to assess the risk of bias. Characteristics of the studies and footwear, the equipment used, and biomechanical outcomes were extracted for qualitative synthesis. Twelve studies were included. Only one had a randomised control trial design, which was classified as ‘good’ (score = 24) quality. The studies reported thirty-nine kinematic and sixteen kinetic variables. HTD ranged between −8 to 16 mm. HTDs did not produce modifications in contact and flight time, stride frequency, and stride length. Some controversial evidence supports that the foot strike pattern changes towards forefoot strike only with HTD 0 compared to HTD 8–10. All evidence indicates that HTD values modified neither ankle, knee, or hip kinematics. Greater evidence supports that the modification of HTD in running shoes does not modify the values of GRF. Despite the controversial nature of the data, the trend is that a lower HTD shows a higher vertical loading rate. The different HTDs modified neither of the joint moments. The negative HTD could be an interesting variable to consider for future research. In addition, it is necessary to study the relationship between the HTD values and different combinations of heel height and forefoot height.

description: We study the exact solutions for a one-dimensional system of $N=2; 3$ spinless point bosons for zero boundary conditions. In this case, we are based on M. Gaudin's formulae obtained with the help of Bethe ansatz. We find the density profile $ρ(x)$ and the nodal structure of a wave function for a set of the lowest states of the system for different values of the coupling constant $γ\geq 0$. The analysis shows that the ideal crystal corresponds to the quantum numbers (from Gaudin's equations) $n_{1}=\ldots =n_{N}=N$ and to the coupling constant $γ\leq 1$. We also find that the ground state of the system ($n_{1}=\ldots =n_{N}=1$) corresponds to a liquid for any $γ$ and any $N\gg 1$. In this case, the wave function of the ground state is nodeless, and the wave function of the ideal crystal has nodes.

description: This work aimed to investigate the association between the perceived cushioning of a set of trail-running shoes with both their mechanical response to the impact test and the acceleration of lower limb segments while running indoors and outdoors. Earlier studies have typically focussed on the effect of road-running shoe cushioning, whereas very few have examined the perception of trail runners and outdoor trail-running conditions. Seven trail runners were trained to become reliable in evaluating the level of cushioning on a scale ranging from 0 to 100 and then asked to rate the cushioning of eight trail-running shoes while running. Shoe specimens were mechanically characterized through an impact test. In addition, the effect on running biomechanics was tested by wearing two accelerometers on the tibia and foot. The in-lab impact test revealed that the perceived cushioning was inversely associated with the force amplitude and directly associated with the impact duration. The running test showed that the median frequency of the tibial acceleration during the first 25% of the stance phase decreases with increasing cushioning during both indoor (p = 0.02, rs = −0.83) and outdoor conditions (p < 0.001, rs = −0.79). In conclusion, the perceived cushioning was quantitatively associated with the outcomes of impact and running tests.

Creators: name: Michaud, Maxime
name: Perroud, Bérénice

Year: 2018

description: The practice of takeaway is often described in the media as a globalized trend, concerning mainly young adults. This preliminary study aims at questioning this idea by comparing the point of view of young consumers in France, Mexico and in the USA. Two interviews have been conducted in each country, plus two interviews with French food trucks owners. If “saving time” seems to be a shared motivation to buy takeaway food in each country, the results shows that this notion can have different meanings depending on the local food culture. Moreover, buying takeaway food can also be a distinctive practice, challenging an homogeneous vision of the “young adults” or “millennials”. Anyway, the results are strengthening the hypothesis of a cultural adaptation of international trends in the local food cultures.

description: We construct a large class of completely positive and trace preserving non-Markovian dynamical maps for an open quantum system. These maps arise from a piecewise dynamics characterized by a continuous time evolution interrupted by jumps, randomly distributed in time and described by a quantum channel. The state of the open system is shown to obey a closed evolution equation, given by a master equation with a memory kernel and a inhomogeneous term. The non-Markovianity of the obtained dynamics is explicitly assessed studying the behavior of the distinguishability of two different initial system's states with elapsing time.

description: We found the self-similar solitary solutions of a recently proposed model for propagation of pulses in gas filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibers that includes a plasma induced nonlinearity. As anticipated for a simpler model and using a perturbation analysis, there are indeed stationary solitary waves that accelerate and self-shift to higher frequencies. However, if the plasma nonlinearity strength is large or the pulse amplitudes are small, the solutions have distinguished long tails and decay as they propagate.

description: This study numerically investigates the bifurcation aspect of the wide-gap spherical Couette flow (SCF), with an emphasis on the competition among polygonal coherence with different wave numbers observed over transitional Reynolds numbers. Focusing on a representative case, the half-radius ratio, we confirm that the axisymmetric state becomes unstable over the first transitional Reynolds number at which the 4-fold spiral state bifurcates, using the continuation method based on the Newton-Raphson algorithm. The Galerkin-spectral method was employed to numerically solve the governing equations. It is found that the 3-fold spiral state bifurcates from the axisymmetric state at a slightly higher Reynolds number than the first transitional Reynolds number. The attraction of the 3-fold spiral state expands rapidly with an increase in the Reynolds number, which is determined by verifying the distance of the unstable periodic-like state to both spiral states in the state space. This aspect of the state space explains the experimentally bistable realization of different equilibrium states over the first transitional Reynolds number. This study also found that the periodic-like state is composed of the 3- and 4-fold spiral states, similar to a beat with two different frequencies.

GADTs meet subtyping

description: While generalized algebraic datatypes (\GADTs) are now considered well-understood, adding them to a language with a notion of subtyping comes with a few surprises. What does it mean for a \GADT parameter to be covariant? The answer turns out to be quite subtle. It involves fine-grained properties of the subtyping relation that raise interesting design questions. We allow variance annotations in \GADT definitions, study their soundness, and present a sound and complete algorithm to check them. Our work may be applied to real-world ML-like languages with explicit subtyping such as OCaml, or to languages with general subtyping constraints.

Depletion induced demixing and crystallization in binary colloids subjected to an external potential barrier

description: A binary colloidal mixture of unequal sizes, subjected to an external potential barrier, has been investigated using canonical ensemble molecular dynamics simulations. The attractive depletion interaction between the external barrier and larger species in the binary mixture causes the mixture to phase separate. At higher volume fractions, a pure phase of larger particles forms near the potential barrier, and the local density of this pure phase is high enough that a face centered cubic crystalline domain is formed at this region. This crystalline phase diffuses perpendicular to the external potential barrier. The temperature dependence of diffusivity of larger particles is non-Arrhenius and changes from sub-Arrhenius to super-Arrhenius as the volume fraction increases. This crossover from sub-Arrhenius to super-Arrhenius diffusion coincides with the crystalline formation near the potential barrier.

description: We study normal modes propagating on top of the stable uniform background in arrays of dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) droplets trapped in a deep optical lattice. Both the on-site mean-field dynamics of the droplets and their displacement due to the repulsive dipole-dipole interactions (DDIs) are taken into account. Dispersion relations for two modes, \textit{viz}., high- and low- frequency counterparts of optical and acoustic phonon modes in condensed matter, are derived analytically and verified by direct simulations, for both cases of the repulsive and attractive contact interactions. The (counterpart of the) optical-phonon branch does not exist without the DDIs. These results are relevant in the connection to emerging experimental techniques enabling real-time imaging of the condensate dynamics and direct experimental measurement of phonon dispersion relations in BECs.

description: Candida albicans is responsible for a number of life-threatening infections and causes considerable morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Previous studies of C. albicans pathogenesis have suggested several steps must occur before virulent infection, including early adhesion, invasion, and late tissue damage. However, the mechanism that triggers C. albicans transformation from yeast to hyphae form during infection has yet to be fully elucidated. This study used a systems biology approach to investigate C. albicans infection in zebrafish. The surviving fish were sampled at different post-infection time points to obtain time-lapsed, genome-wide transcriptomic data from both organisms, which were accompanied with in sync histological analyses. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to analyze the dynamic gene expression profiles of significant variations in both C. albicans and zebrafish. The results categorized C. albicans infection into three progressing phases: adhesion, invasion, and damage. Such findings were highly supported by the corresponding histological analysis. Furthermore, the dynamic interspecies transcript profiling revealed that C. albicans activated its filamentous formation during invasion and the iron scavenging functions during the damage phases, whereas zebrafish ceased its iron homeostasis function following massive hemorrhage during the later stages of infection. This was followed by massive hemorrhaging toward the end stage of infection. Most of the immune related genes were expressed as the infection progressed from invasion to the damage phase. Such global, inter-species evidence of virulence-immune and iron competition dynamics during C. albicans infection could be crucial in understanding control fungal pathogenesis.

description: In England haben üblicherweise die Regionalmuseen die Aufgabe übernommen, Unterlagen und Funde aus archäologischen Untersuchungen zu archivieren. Aus Platznot entscheiden sich nun immer mehr Museen, kein Material von verursacher-finanzierten Maßnahmen mehr anzunehmen. Die Hintergründe dieser Lage, nämlich eine Zunahme an archäologischen Aktivitäten in den letzten 20 Jahren, sowie ein zunehmend wettbewerbsintensiver Markt an archäologischen Grabungsfirmen, werden in diesem Vortrag dargelegt. Es folgt eine Diskussion möglicher Lösungen für diese Magazinkrise in unseren Museen, oder zumindest in unseren archäologischen Sammlungen. Eine mögliche Lösung wäre es, in der Auswahl der aufzubewahrenden Grabungsfunde selektiver zu sein. Die Prinzipien zur Auswahl und Magazinierung eines archäologischen Archives werden hier vorgestellt; zusammen mit einem Fallbeispiel, welches zeigt, wie ein Auswahlprozess zur Rationalisierung des Museumsbestandes die Platznot lindern kann.
description: Local museums in England have customarily acted as the repository for archives generated by archaeological fieldwork, but due to pressures on storage space, more and more of them are deciding no longer to accept material produced by developer-funded projects. The reasons behind this state of affairs, resulting from an expansion of archaeological activity in the last twenty years, accompanied by an increasingly competitive market for archaeological fieldwork contractors, are set out in this paper. Our museums and archaeology collections are now faced with a storage crisis and some of the suggested solutions are considered here. One way of addressing the problem of space in museum stores is to be more selective about what is retained from fieldwork. The principles of selection of an archaeological archive are presented here with a case study that shows how a selection process, aimed at rationalising existing museum holdings, can ease the pressure on storage space.
