description: Abstract

The Road Map of Bureaucratic Reform (RB) of Indonesian government for 2020-2024 has undergone changes in its goals and targets. Before these changes, the focus was on achieving good and clean governance. However, the revised focus is on creating a clean, effective, and competitive bureaucracy capable of driving national development and public service. The strategic targets of the RB Road Map 2020-2024 have also been simplified into two aspects: hard and soft elements. The hard element aspect aims to establish effective, agile, and collaborative digital governance as a downstream issue (thematic bureaucratic reform). The soft element aspect aims to foster a bureaucratic culture characterized by AKHLAK values (Service-Oriented, Accountable, Competent, Harmonious, Loyal, Adaptive, and Collaborative) among professional Civil Apparatus as an upstream issue (general bureaucratic reform). Digitalization acceleration has been chosen as a means to create an agile and fast bureaucracy, integrating all public needs into one grasp. This digitalization acceleration is also seen as a way to transform bureaucratic reform into dynamic governance by 2025. It makes the bureaucracy more effective and efficient, characterized by agility and adaptability. Hence, it is on par with world-class bureaucracy standards.

description: Vor kurzem ereignete sich ein selbst für nepalische Verhältnisse ungewöhnlicher Vorfall. Ein Mann aus dem einfachen Volk, Devi Prasad Regmi, gab dem Generalsekretär der Communist Party Nepal-UML (CPN/UML) Jhalanath Khanal auf einer feierlichen Veranstaltung im Beisein zahlreicher Gäste eine Ohrfeige, so dass dessen Brille zu Boden fiel. Regmi, früher selbst Mitglied der CPN/UML, wurde festgenommen und später zu 15 Tagen Haft verurteilt. Von Journalisten befragt, begründete er die Ohrfeige wie folgt: „Ich erfuhr von der Veranstaltung, nachdem ich meine Stromrechnung bezahlt hatte und ging hin. Ich entschloss mich, Khanal zu ohrfeigen, denn die Politiker ruinieren das Land, weil sie nicht in der Lage sind, eine Regierung zu bilden, die neue Verfassung zu schreiben und den Friedensprozess zu einem positiven Abschluss zu bringen.“

description: In den vergangenen Monaten seit dem Tod von Bhagwan Das, der am 18. November im Alter von 83 Jahren starb, sind viele Nachrufe erschienen, die seine bedeutende Leistung für die Dalit-Bewegung in Indien würdigen. Er war sicherlich eine der wichtigsten Persönlichkeiten der Dalit-Bewegung in Nordindien, und hat wesentlich dazu beigetragen, das Gedankengut Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkars zu verbreiten. Sein großes Verdienst besteht darin, dass er die Bewegung auch für diejenigen geöffnet hat, die selbst innerhalb der „unberührbaren“ Kasten ganz unten stehen: Latrinenreiniger und Straßenkehrer. Und er hat es verstanden, das Problem der „Unberührbarkeit“ schon frühzeitig zu internationalisieren, unter anderem durch sein Eintreten für die Burakumin in Japan, die ähnlich wie die Straßenkehrer und Latrinenreiniger in Indien als Bevölkerungsgruppe kollektiv diskriminiert werden.

Investigating the role of CRL5, a ubiquitin ligase, in ovarian follicle development
Creators: name: Hardy, Victoria

Publisher: name: F1000Research
Year: 2016

description: During oogenesis, follicle cells surround maturing oocytes, which produce factors necessary for proper oocyte growth and development. Correct encapsulation of the oocyte by follicle cells is therefore essential for reproduction. While many signaling pathways have been linked to encapsulation, mechanisms of early follicle development, particularly in mammals, are not fully understood. Recent evidence demonstrates that Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) are necessary for oogenesis in both mammals and Drosophila. CRLs include a Cullin family scaffolding protein and a RING-domain protein that facilitates recruitment of ubiquitin ligases. CRLs are known to control many cell processes; however, it is unclear how CRLs control early follicle development. In Drosophila, loss of Cul5, results in follicle death and improper encapsulation. We therefore tested whether the Cul5-containing CRL (CRL5) is required for early follicle development by analyzing loss-of-function mutants of the ligase complex. Loss of Cul5 or the RING protein Roc2 resulted in fused follicles, ruptured follicular epithelium, and improper encapsulation. Genetic mosaics of Cul5 or Roc2 show that CRL5 is primarily required in developing follicle cells for cyst encapsulation. CRL5 mutant follicle cells display mislocalization of the polarity protein Bazooka and decreased Stat expression. Data also suggest that Cul5 may mediate signaling between the follicle cells and the underlying cyst. We are testing whether altered Notch/Delta or Wnt signaling, which regulates cyst encapsulation together with the JAK-STAT pathway, are responsible for these phenotypes. Results suggest that CRL5 controls early follicle development by regulating early follicle cell polarity and specification. Our studies highlight the role of CRLs in early follicle development, and may lead towards a better understanding and treatment of infertility.

description: The Genetics and Genomics Analysis Platform (GenAP) is a computing platform for life sciences researchers, with two goals in mind: making bioinformatics analyzes and data sharing more accessible to non-bioinformaticians, and reducing the bottlenecks associated with genomics big data processing. To accomplish these goals, GenAP has developed three components on the Compute Canada infrastructure: a web portal with powerful and user-friendly analysis tools, bioinformatics software analysis pipelines, and a code and genomic reference files distribution platform with CVMFS.

The Web Portal offers various tools through its virtual machines architecture, such as Galaxy, a web-based analysis framework that allows launching data processing software on High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters through clickable interfaces rather than with the typical command shell. The GenAP flavour of Galaxy enables users to make use of their Compute Canada allocation to run analyzes. A data hub service allows researchers to share and publish large datasets using technologies such as UCSC Genome Browser track hubs. Portal service nodes are currently available at two Compute Canada HPC sites.

The Analysis Pipelines component is composed of a framework implemented in an object-oriented fashion to enable better modularity and reusability, and offers features such as error recovery. Pipelines implemented using this framework support different experiment types such as variant calling and transcriptomics analyzes. The source code is freely available on a public source control repository.

The CVMFS component includes repositories for ~100 analysis software packages and their required genomic libraries, and allow these resources to be readily accessible from all supporting sites. Such resources include software for pipelines execution (BWA, GATK, etc.) and many reference genomes. CVMFS has already been integrated at several HPC centres.

In addition, GenAP offers services such as a UCSC Genome Browser mirror with full annotations for the human and mouse assemblies. It also hosts the IHEC Data Portal, the International Human Epigenome Consortium (IHEC) data distribution website, with tools to facilitate datasets discovery and analysis.

description: Considering the advancing digitalization and the rise of new technologies, the way people interact with one another but also approach companies has fundamentally changed. In this respect, chatbots have experienced a “comeback” recently and many large companies but also small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the B2C sector search for ways to support the conversation with customers via chatbots. Nevertheless, chatbots must fulfil particular functionalities (e.g., in terms of language processing or quality of communication) to be purposefully applied in an entrepreneurial setting, and particularly, at SMEs. The investigation at hand analyses the solutions of 14 technology providers for realizing a chatbot in terms of (1) quality of the communication, (2) reaction to inappropriate input, (3) personalization, (4) language processing, (5) security, (6) interfaces & mobile device support, (7) training, (8) implementation and (9) costs. Thereby, the peculiarities of human-machine communications and requirements of firms are taken into account. The results were derived on base of an online survey among the solution providers. It turned out that a high percentage of the functionalities, which are decisive for a valuable entrepreneurial chatbot application, are covered by the providers, however, with nuanced differences being observed regarding particular features.
The effects of oxytocin on emotional verbal prosodyin individuals with Schizophrenia and healthy controls

description: Background:

Individuals with schizophrenia have a deficit in interpreting prosody (emotional musicality of speech). The neuropeptide oxytocin has multiple prosocial effects and has the potential to remedy the social deficits in schizophrenia. Thus, we investigated the effects of intranasal oxytocin on verbal prosody detection in individuals with schizophrenia and healthy controls.

Conclusions:

Consistent with previous results, we found SZ to be impaired at detecting prosodic cues. We found that a single dose of oxytocin improved HC’s ability to detect sad prosody but had no other significant effects. These results are consistent with our previous work showing that oxytocin does not have strong effects on lower-level social cognition such as emotional cue perception. However, results are preliminary and studies with larger samples sizes are needed.
Mapping solar saltern virus-host interactions with metagenomic CRISPR detection
Creators: name: Moller, Abraham
name: Liang, Chun
Publisher: name: F1000Research
Year: 2016

description: This poster presents three critical parts of recent research in the Liang lab about virus-host interactions in solar salterns. These parts involve determining what microbes are present in solar salterns (taxonomic profiling), which microbes have which genes involved in glycerol metabolism (functional profiling), and which viruses map to which microbes (virus-host mapping using metagenomic CRISPR detection).

Using taxonomic profiling, we identified hosts such as archaeal Haloquadratum, Halorubrum, and Haloarcula and bacterial Salinibacter, and we found that community composition related to not only salinity but also local environmental dynamics. Characterizing glycerol metabolism genes in these metagenomes suggested most dihydroxyacetone kinase genes affiliate to Halorubrum and Haloquadratum while most glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase genes affiliate toSalinibacter. We identified CRISPR spacers in the metagenomes with two different methods and found more spacers in the Halobacteriaceae-dominated IC21 and C34 salterns compared with the Haloquadratum-dominated SS19, SS33, and SS37 salterns, suggesting low CRISPR diversity and possibly a high rate of CRISPR loss in the Haloquadratum-dominated salterns. After CRISPR detection, spacers were aligned against haloviral genomes to map virus to host. While most alignments linked viruses to Haloquadratum walsbyi, there were clusters of interactions with less abundant Haloarcula and Haloferax. Further examination of the dimer and codon usage differences between paired viruses and their hosts and detection of casgenes in the salterns confirmed both the plausibility of virus-host interactions and the possibility of CRISPR activity. Taken together, our studies suggest CRISPR loss in archaeal hosts controls the level of virus proliferation and the nutrient turnover viruses induce in these environments.

At the time of writing the EOSC is still “in the making” and such recommendations are only partly established and in most cases under discussion by the community. Recommendations have been provided by several EOSC working groups, operating independently or jointly supported by the eInfraCentral, EOSC-Secretariat, EOSC-Hub, EOSC-Enhance, and OpenAIRE-Advance H2020 projects. The technical roadmap in OpenAIRE-Nexus will focus on the EOSC Core Interoperability Framework, making a distinction betweensemantic integration, i.e. adapting services and back-ends to recommended data models, concepts, vocabularies, and technical integration, i.e. adapting services to recommended APIs and data exchange formats.

Visual analysis of shape assayed with synthetic textures

Year: 2016

description: Algorithmically-defined visual textures provide a way to analyze computations performed in early vision.  In this approach, image sets are synthesized that contain independent, controlled variation of several types of local features. The method therefore allows for a characterization of processing of individual feature types and how they interact – something difficult to accomplish with natural images.  Here we extend this strategy from elementary visual features to shape.

The starting point is our texture-based analysis of contrast, edge, and corner.  Here, we used binary textures: each check was black or white according to an algorithm that controlled the one-, two-, three-, and four-point statistics within 2x2 neighborhoods of checks.  To extend this idea to elements of shape, we replace the uniformly black or white checks by tiles containing curved segments.  The tiles are designed so that where they meet, they form continuous contours.  This construction produces an image with extended shapes, whose characteristics are controlled by the underlying binary texture. Specifically, manipulating the two-point and higher-order statistics of this underlying texture produces new textures with curvilinear contours and varying amounts of convex and non-convex shapes.  These new textures are balanced for lower-level features such as the length, orientation, and curvature of individual segments.

To use these stimuli to analyze texture segmentation based on shape, we asked subjects (N=6) to perform a 4-AFC texture segmentation paradigm, adapted from previous studies.  Textures containing isolated circles were more readily segregated than textures containing the equivalent amount of curved segments, but combined in a way that did not produce isolated shapes.  Further, simple circles were a stronger segmentation cue than more complex shapes. Because of the construction of the textures from identical sets of tiles, the superiority of circles could not be explained on the basis of the curvature of local segments.

In ihrem Standardwerk von 1975 berichtet sie, dass 200 000, 300 000 oder 400 000 Frauen – je nach Quelle – in den Kriegsmonaten von März bis Dezember 1971 vergewaltigt worden seien, darunter 80 Prozent muslimische Frauen. Tausende Frauen sind, so Susan Brownmiller, in Bordelle und Armeebasen der pakistanischen Armee verschleppt worden und konnten erst nach Ende des Kriegs befreit werden.

description: Background: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric condition that develops in some people following trauma exposure. PTSD is heritable, but the mechanisms differentially explaining risk vs. resilience remain largely unknown. Candidate gene studies and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified only a modest number of genes that reliably contribute to PTSD.  New gene-based methods may help identify additional genes that increase risk for PTSD development or severity.

Conclusion: NLGN1 variants showed a significant effect on regional activity and functional connectivity in the brain and were also linked to higher levels of anxiety and fear. These findings support a contribution of the NLGN1 gene pathway to the neurobiological underpinnings of PTSD.

description: The apolipoprotein E (APOE) *e4 allele and hypertension are two of the most prevalent genetic and environmental risk factors associated with cognitive decline in latter life. Genetic and environmental risk factors, however, do not act in isolation and interactions between these risk factors may modify the rate of cognitive decline. The present analysis examines whether the APOE *e4 allele moderates the association between late-life high blood pressure and cognition in later life. We tested whether and interaction between the blood pressure variables hypertension or mean arterial pressure and APOE genotype was associated with a greater cognitive decline in early old age. Cognitive function was assessed at three time points over a period of 8 years in 1,741 cognitively normal community-dwelling adults aged 60-64 years at baseline. Using multilevel models it was found that APOE genotype did moderate the association between late-life high blood pressure on some cognitive tests, however, the inclusion of the interaction term either did not significantly improve model fit or explain any additional variation in the models. These results suggest that APOE genotype does not moderate the association between late-life blood pressure and cognition in latter life.

description: Der 25. März 1971 war ein schicksalsschwerer Tag für das bengalische Delta. Während der Diktator Pakistans [Anm. d. Red.: Präsident Yahya Kahn] insgeheim und zum letzten Mal aus Dhaka nach Westpakistan zurückreiste, gab er die Anweisungen für einen umfassenden militärischen Angriff auf die Bevölkerung Ostpakistans. Es war eine Strafaktion, die den bengalischen Nationalismus eliminieren und die Dominanz Westpakistans über den Ostteil des Landes wiederherstellen sollte. Der bewaffnete Angriff unter dem Namen Operation Searchlight [Anm. d. Red.: zu Deutsch „Operation Scheinwerfer“] wurde von General Tikka Khan geleitet, der schon bald als „Schlächter von Bengalen“ berüchtigt wurde.

description: Im Jahr 1971 war ich 14 Jahre alt und besuchte die 10. Klasse. Mein Vater Shahid Dr. Jyotirmay Guhathakurta war Professor am Institut für Anglistik der Universität von Dhaka, meine Mutter Basanti Guhathakurta Direktorin einer Schule für Mädchen. Im Jahr zuvor war mein Vater in den Verwaltungsrat der Universität berufen worden und so zogen wir in ein Haus auf dem Universitätsgelände. Abu Sayeed Chowdhury war Vizekanzler der Universität und bereits seit Schultagen ein Freund meines Vaters. Auf dem Gelände gab es nach Religionszugehörigkeit getrennte Wohnbereiche: für Muslime und für Hindus. Wir lebten in der Jagannath Hall. Unsere Wohnung war direkt gegenüber dem Shahid Minar gelegen, dem Denkmal, das zur Erinnerung an die Märtyrer der Sprachbewegung errichtet worden war. Von hier gingen damals viele politische Aktivitäten aus.

Es sei verwunderlich, dass bis dato niemand einen großen Roman zu diesem so entscheidenden Jahr der Geschichte Bangladeschs geschrieben habe. In den 36 Jahren nach der Unabhängigkeit habe es vor allem nicht-fiktionale Auseinandersetzungen mit dem Krieg gegeben.

description: With over 10,000 EMTs, India's GVK Emergency Management and Research Institute operates the largest EMS network in the world.  Efficiently disseminating updated training materials to a group of this size presents a number of challenges.

This study compared the impact on knowledge of two EMT training presentation formats: novel video-based lectures versus traditional live lectures.

Study participants were practicing EMTs attending a training course in one of three Indian states.  At each site, participants were quasi-randomized by alternate allocation. One group received training materials in a live lecture format. The other group received training materials in a video-based lecture format. Knowledge was assessed using a 30-MCQ pre-test and a 60-MCQ post-test. Data was analyzed using analysis of variance.

191 participants were enrolled, the majority were enrolled in Tamil Nadu (53%), and were male (73%).  Mean participant age was 24.5 years (± 4.0), median length of employment as an EMT was 46 months (IQR = 18-66).  Comparing groups, there was no difference in pre-test scores (Video: 63.3 ± 11.1%, Live: 61 ± 11.5%, p=0.086), scores improved significantly in both groups (Video: 9.4% ± 8.4%, p < 0.001, Live: 12.5% ± 9.8% p < 0.001), with scores improving to a greater degree in a statistically significant fashion in the live group (p=0.013) and there was no difference in post-test scores (Video: 72.6% ± 7.2%, Live: 73.2% ± 7.0%, p = 0.58).

These data demonstrate a positive immediate impact on knowledge of the two educational methods.  Further investigation into alternate factors influencing training effectiveness will be needed to determine the most appropriate teaching method for this setting.
Poesie in Pune und Pondi

description: Als ich kürzlich nach Pune fuhr, um Raphael Bendicht Urweider zu treffen, überlegte ich mir, ob es wohl ein nom de plume sei, den sich dieser Dichter aus Bern zugelegt hatte. Nicht nur verwies sein Nachname auf die urtümlichen Kuhweiden des Schweizer Haslitals, in Raphael klangen Rap und Raffa und Altes Testament mit. Und stand der mittlere Name nicht etwas aufdringlich für gutes Dichten? Schließlich lautet, so erklärte mir Urweider später, die lateinische Urform von Bendicht Benedictus, was „Gutgesagtes“ und „Wohlgemeintes“‘ heißt. Aber, lachte er, diesen zweiten Vornamen hätten die Veranstalter des Programms einfach dem Pass entnommen, wo er wohl direkt aus der Taufurkunde kommend gelandet war, ohne dass ihn jemand je in den Mund genommen hätte. In Pune sprach Urweider mit sieben weiteren Poeten über das Besondere und die Verschiedenheit von Sprache und Sprechen.

description: The sepsis definitions have been redefined for adults in 2016. Definitions for pediatric sepsis are awaited. Fever and foci of infection is the commonest reason for children being brought to the OPD. Septic shock is the commonest cause of mortality in hospitals in LICs. This presentation, shows data from a PED of a large volume public childrens' hospital, wherein, life threatening organ dysfunction is identified in the OPD using simple triage questions and a clinical assessment tool. Concurrently , the same tool is used to take therapeutic interventions until goals are achieved.
Do we foveate targets during smooth pursuit?

description: Saccades have been shown to land at the center of mass of the target (He & Kowler 1991). Here, we examined if eye position is similarly centered on a target during typical smooth pursuit. Pursuit is considered a foveating behavior, even though it is driven by velocity and not eye position (Rashbass 1961), and has been demonstrated in the periphery (Winterson and Steinman, 1978). We recruited 8 untrained participants (age: 25-35, 3 males). Targets were displayed in a scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) and moved in a modified step-ramp paradigm, stepping 6° from the center and moving through a 12° trajectory, at 6°/sec in 8 directions (0-315° in 45° increments). Targets were ring-shaped and either small (0.6°) or large (1.7°). Monocular fixation stability of each participant was measured to determine the 68% bivariate contour ellipse area (BCEA). Eye and target positions were compared directly on each frame during the longest period of continuous pursuit. Across participants, the target center rarely fell within the BCEA for either small (0.24±0.10) or large (0.16±0.12) targets. However, instances where any part of the target fell within the BCEA were substantially more common (small: 0.69±0.13; large: 0.79±0.22). In some cases, pursuit loci were up to 3-4° from BCEA boundary, arguing against a centering strategy. We also examined whether displacement around the center was related to the quality of pursuit gain. There was no relationship between gain and target placement.  Furthermore, the non-centering trend persisted even for trials with near-perfect gains (within 1±0.15), arguing against retinal slip. Our results show that eye position is not centered on the target in pursuit. Unlike in Kowler & Blaser (1994), the distribution of eye position around the target cannot be explained by a bias from target center. This outcome raises the question of whether pursuit is indeed a foveating behavior.

description: Am 7. Mai 2011 jährt sich der Geburtstag des Großmeisters der modernen Bengali-Literatur, Gründers der Universität Vishvabharati und Literaturnobelpreisträgers Rabindranath Tagore zum 150. Mal. In Indien und Bangladesch, die beide Nationalhymnen nach Texten von Tagore haben, steht er im Kanon der national geehrten Dichter und Denker ganz oben. Das Jubiläum ist willkommener Anlass, an seine Bedeutung für die bengalische und die indische Nation zu erinnern. Aus diesem Anlass hat der Draupadi Verlag folgende drei Bücher publiziert: Alokeranjan Dasgupta: Mein Tagore. Eine Annäherung an den indischen Dichter Rabindranath Tagore (Interviews, Vorträge und Aufsätze von A. Dasgupta über Tagore und Übersetzungen von Texten Tagores). Rabindranath Tagore, Helene Meyer-Franck und Heinrich Meyer-Benfey: Mein lieber Meister. Briefwechsel 1920-1938. Herausgeber Martin Kämpchen und Prasanta Kumar Paul (Helene Meyer-Franck hat in den 1920er Jahren viele Texte Tagores ins Deutsche übersetzt). Rabindranath Tagore: Chitra. Ein Spiel in einem Aufzug. Ins Deutsche übertragen von Elisabeth Wolff-Merck. In dem Band Mein Tagore ist in neuer Übersetzung die Rede abdruckt, die Tagore am 7. Mai 1941 hielt. Sie war seine letzte öffentliche Stellungnahme und wird oft als sein Vermächtnis an die Nachwelt bezeichnet. Hier bringen wir einige Auszüge der deutschen Übersetzung.
