description: Objective: Measures ascertaining exposure to potentially traumatic events (PTEs) frequently ask respondents about experienced physical and sexual violence. However, little is known about the performance of physical and sexual violence questions on PTE assessments and its effect on PTE classification overall. We estimated underreporting of physical and sexual violence on a PTE assessment among individuals entering HIV care in Cameroon. Method: We compared reports of physical and sexual violence captured via a behaviorally specific measure of intimate partner violence (IPV; Demographic and Health Survey [DHS] domestic violence module = referent) to those captured via two single-item questions that assessed exposure to physical and sexual PTEs during one’s adult life to determine the degree of underreporting on the single-item PTE assessment questions. We explored correlates of underreporting on the PTE assessment using Pearson’s chisquared tests. Results: Overall, 99 (23%) and 113 (27%) of 426 total participants reported instances of sexual and physical violence in their most recent partnership on the behaviorally specific DHS IPV module, respectively. Of those reporting sexual and physical IPV on the DHS module, just 6% (n = 6) and 52% (n = 59) reported sexual and physical violence as an adult on the single-item PTE assessment questions, respectively. Underreporting of physical violence on the PTE assessment was associated with lower educational attainment (p <.05) and reporting being punched (p <.01) or having one’s hair pulled or arm twisted (p <.05) by one’s most recent partner. Conclusions: PTE assessment tools should assess exposure to behaviorally specific acts of violence to ensure appropriate referral to services among survivors of IPV.

description: In this paper we analyze the rural-urban migration phenomena as it is usually observed in economies which are in the early stages of industrialization. The analysis is conducted by means of a statistical mechanics approach which builds a computational agent-based model. Agents are placed on a lattice and the connections among them are described via an Ising like model. Simulations on this computational model show some emergent properties that are common in developing economies, such as a transitional dynamics characterized by continuous growth of urban population, followed by the equalization of expected wages between rural and urban sectors (Harris-Todaro equilibrium condition), urban concentration and increasing of per capita income.

description: More than 80 years ago, Born-Infeld electrodynamics was proposed in order to remove the point charge singularity in Maxwell electrodynamics. In this work, after a brief introduction to Lagrangian formulation of Abelian Born-Infeld model in the presence of an external source, we obtain the explicit forms of Gauss's law and the energy density of an electrostatic field for Born-Infeld electrostatics. The electric field and the stored electrostatic energy per unit length for an infinite charged line and an infinitely long cylinder in Born-Infeld electrostatics are calculated. Numerical estimations in this paper show that the nonlinear corrections to Maxwell electrodynamics are considerable only for strong electric fields. We present an action functional for Abelian Born-Infeld model with an auxiliary scalar field in the presence of an external source. This action functional is a generalization of the action functional which was presented by Tseytlin in his studies on low energy dynamics of $D$-branes (Nucl. Phys. \textbf{B469}, 51 (1996); Int. J. Mod. Phys. A \textbf{19}, 3427 (2004)). Finally, we derive the symmetric energy-momentum tensor for Abelian Born-Infeld model with an auxiliary scalar field.

description: This contribution presents SentiANNO, a sentiment-annotated corpus from historical Austrian newspapers; and describes the annotation process and the training of annotators. The corpus, which covers journalistic texts in German from 1800 to 1938, addresses the lack of sentiment-annotated resources for historical newspapers. Such a resource can be used to fine-tune existing Machine Learning models for Sentiment Analysis.The corpus includes texts from ANNO and DIGITARIUM collections, categorized into four sentiment categories (positive, negative, neutral and mixed) by three non-expert annotators. Throughout the annotation process, Doccano proved to be the most effective annotation tool, with preliminary results showing over 70% inter-annotator agreement despite genre and language complexity. The corpus will be publicly available on Zenodo, supporting open access.
Renormalization of thermal conductivity of disordered d-wave superconductors by impurity-induced local moments

description: The low-temperature thermal conductivity κ_0/T of d-wave superconductors is generally thought to attain a "universal" value independent of disorder at sufficiently low temperatures, providing an important measure of the magnitude of the gap slope near its nodes. We discuss situations in which this inference can break down because of competing order, and quasiparticle localization. Specifically, we study an inhomogeneous BCS mean field model with electronic correlations included via a Hartree approximation for the Hubbard interaction, and show that the suppression of κ_0/T by localization effects can be strongly enhanced by magnetic moment formation around potential scatterers.

Pulsating low-mass white dwarfs in the frame of new evolutionary sequences: V. Asteroseismology of ELMV white dwarf stars

description: Many pulsating low-mass white-dwarf stars have been detected in the last years in the field of our Galaxy. Given that some of them exhibit multiperiodic variation of brightness, it is possible to probe their interiors through asteroseismology. We present a detailed asteroseismological study of all the known low-mass variable white dwarf stars based on a complete set of fully evolutionary models representative of low-mass He-core white dwarf stars. We employed adiabatic radial and nonradial pulsation periods for low-mass white dwarf models with stellar masses ranging from $0.1554$ to $0.4352\ M_{\odot}$, that were derived by simulating the nonconservative evolution of a binary system consisting of an initially $1 M_{\odot}$ ZAMS star and a $1.4 M_{\odot}$ neutron star companion. We estimated the mean period spacing for the stars under study and then we used the comparison between the observed period spacing with the average of the computed period spacings for our grid of models to constrain the stellar mass. We also employed the individual observed periods of every known pulsating low-mass white dwarf star, to search for a representative seismological model. We found that even though the stars under analysis exhibit few periods and the period fits show multiplicity of solutions, it is possible to find seismological models whose mass and effective temperature are in agreement with the values given by spectroscopy, for most of the cases. In the two cases where we could extract the period spacing from the set of observed periods, this method led to values of the stellar masses substantially larger than expected for this type of stars. The results presented in this work show in the one hand, the need for further photometric searches, and on the other hand, some improvements of the theoretical models, in order to place the asteroseismological results on a firmer ground.

description: We perform a spatially resolved X-ray spectroscopic study of a set of 18 relaxed clusters of galaxies with gas temperatures below 4 keV. Spectral analysis was done using ASCA/SIS data coupled with the spatial information contained in ROSAT/PSPC and Einstein/IPC observations. We derive the temperature profiles using single-temperature fits and also correct for the presence of cold gas at the cluster centers. For all of the clusters in the sample, we derive Si and Fe abundance profiles. For a few of the clusters, we also derive Ne and S abundance profiles. We present a comparison of the elemental abundances derived at similar overdensities as well as element mass-to-light ratios. We conclude that the preferential accretion of low entropy, low abundance gas into the potentials of groups and cold clusters can explain most of the observed trends in metallicity. In addition, we discuss the importance of energy input from SNe II on cluster scaling relations and on the relation between the observed scatter in the retainment of SN Ia products with differences between the epoch of cluster formation.

description: We report results from lithium abundance determinations using high resolution spectral analysis of the 107 metal-rich stars from the Calan-Hertfordshire Extrasolar Planet Search programme. We set out to understand the lithium distribution of the population of stars taken from this survey. The lithium abundance with account NLTE effects was determined from the fits to the Li I 6708 Å~resonance doublet profiles in the observed spectra. We find that a) fast rotators tend to have higher lithium abundances, b) $\log$ N(Li) is higher in more massive/hot stars, c) $\log$ N(Li) is higher in less evolved stars, i.e. stars of lower \logg, d) stars with the metallicities $>$0.25~dex do not show the presence of lithium lines in their spectra, e) most of our planet hosts rotate slower, f) our estimate of a lower limit of lithium isotopic ratio is \Li $>$10 in the atmospheres of two SWP and two non-SWP stars. Measurable lithium abundances were found in the atmospheres of 45 stars located at distances of 20-170 pc from the Sun, for the other 62 stars the upper limits of log N(Li) were computed. We found well defined dependences of lithium abundances on \Teff, \vsini, and less pronounced for the \logg. In case of \vsini we see two sequences of stars: with measurable lithium and with the upper limit of log N(Li). About 10\% of our targets are known to host planets. Only two SWP have notable lithium abundances, so we found a lower proportion of stars with detectable Li among known planet hosts than among stars without planets. However, given the small sample size of our planet-host sample, our analysis does not show any statistically significant differences in the lithium abundance between SWP and stars without known planets.

description: Experiment 1 design was adopted a 2 (Color: red, blue) x 2 (Gender: male, female) ANOVA. 144 Participants were randomly assigned to four groups based on uniform color (red vs. blue) and practitioners' gender (male vs. female) in a 2 x 2 between-subject design according to the method of random number table. There were 36 male athletes and 36 female athletes in the red uniform group, and 36 male athletes and 36 female athletes in the blue uniform group. Experiment 2 used within-subjects design to conducted experiment separately for the blue and red groups. The female practitioners were randomly assigned to two groups according to the method of random number table and made ratings of the athletes once during the ovulation phase and once during the non-ovulation phase. The order in which the tasks were completed was balanced between subjects: Half of the females in the blue group were tested first during ovulation and then during non-ovulation; the other half were tested first during non-ovulation and then during ovulation. The red group did the same arrangement. They were instructed to look at each photograph for 5s and then rate the quality of the each athlete's movements. After scoring was completed, they were told to proceed to the questionnaire, which was designed to probe for awareness of the manipulation. Finally, look at the differences in the ratings of Wushu Routine athletes wearing different colored uniform by these different groups of participants, and whether the subjects in Experiment 1 would have been aware of color effect.The results of Experiment 1 showed that both male and female athletes wearing red uniform (compared to blue uniform) received higher ratings, and the red effect was especially strong when male practitioners rated female athletes. The results of Experiment 2, in an all-female sample, showed that in most cases there was no difference in ratings made by women in the ovulation and non-ovulation phases of their menstrual cycle, with the exception of their ratings of male athletes wearing red; in this condition, women gave higher ratings when they were in the ovulation phase of their cycle.

A spatial light modulator is used in a side illumination geometry to create a localized optical spot with secondary maxima that are well separated from the central peak. Numerical simulation of a lithography experiment using a magneto-optical trap as a source of cold Cs atoms, collimation and cooling in a magnetic guide, and optical focusing predicts full width at half maximum pixel sizes of 110 x 110 nm and writing times of about $20 \rm ms$ per pixel.

Subjects: subject: Environmental Engineering

description: Disinfection by-products have been the subject of intense study in the water treatment community due to the established adverse health effects of many known by-products and the postulated adverse health effects of many other known and unknown by-products. Aldehydes are one such group of by-products, containing compounds of both known and postulated health effects. This thesis explores the formation of simple alkyl aldehydes due to different disinfectants; these relationships are important because they can aid in determining possible by-product formation of potentially harmful substances with a particular disinfectant or disinfectant combination. Compounds such as these biodegrade easily, presenting a potential for microbial growth in distribution systems. Water samples were taken from the Atkins Reservoir in Massachusetts and treated at different concentrations with four disinfectants: ozone, chlorine, chlorine dioxide, and ferrate. The samples were analyzed for formaldehyde, glyoxal, methyl glyoxal, and propanal. The highest concentrations produced were for formaldehyde, followed by glyoxal. The greatest concentrations resulted from oxidation using ozone or chlorine dioxide. Ferrate and chlorine produced similar concentrations of these aldehydes. Water samples that had been fortified with sodium bromide before addition of ozone, chlorine dioxide, or ferrate produced higher concentrations than any three of those disinfectants alone. For samples treated with chlorine, longer contact times produced slightly higher increases in formaldehyde and glyoxal concentrations but had no distinct effect on methyl glyoxal. Propanal concentrations were low and barely detectable throughout the study so little information was reported on it.

description: Alkalies are considered to be simple metals at ambient conditions. However, recently reported theoretical and experimental results have shown an unexpected and intriguing correlation between complex structures and an enhanced superconducting transition temperature in lithium under pressure. In this article we analyze the pressure induced Fermi surface deformation in bcc lithium, and its relation to the observed cI16 structure. According to our calculations, the Fermi surface becomes increasingly anisotropic with pressure and develops an extended nesting along the bcc [121] direction. This nesting induces a phonon instability of both transverse modes at N, so that a Peierls-type mechanism is proposed to explain the stability of Li-cI16.

description: Background: Globally, depression is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality particularly in Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). The burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are also increasing in LMICs, the conditions frequently co-occur and exacerbate NCD outcomes. Depression interventions alone are not effective at improving NCD outcomes, resulting in wide-reaching calls for integrated services. Integrated services are in a nascent phase in LMICs in general and in Malawi in particular. This manuscript serves to clarify Malawian patients' attitudes and perceptions towards depression integration into routine NCD services. Methods: Ten District Hospitals were selected for data collection and 2 participants were interviewed from each site (N = 20). An iterative approach to concept-driven coding was applied to facilitate the formation of similarities, differences, and connections between codes. Results: While patients infrequently described moderate depression as a medical condition, and held various attitudes regarding treatments, they agreed on the appropriateness of integrated services. Patients' respect for their providers led them to support integration. Patients discussed how medical knowledge is highly regarded, revealing a power dynamic with their providers. Patients further acknowledged the importance of a provider's communication in shaping a patient's feelings about depression. Conclusions: Training and interventions that facilitate providers' abilities to transfer their medical knowledge, use strategies to channel their power, and engage patients in a meaningful and collaborative relationship will be key to successfully integrating depression treatment into Malawian NCD clinics. Trial registration: This work served as part of formative data collection for National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Trail NCT03711786 registered on 10th October, 2018.

description: We present the results of a redshift survey of galaxies in the A3528 complex, a chain of interacting clusters in the core of the Shapley Concentration. This complex is characterized in the X-ray band by two pairs of roughly similar interacting clumps: one pair has been resolved as two optical Abell clusters (A3530 and A3532), while the two components of the other pair are both associated to A3528. The optical data show that the distance between the centers of A3530 and A3532 is smaller than their Abell radii, an indication of the existence at least of tidal interactions, and that the contours of galaxies in A3528 appear to be elongated in the North-South direction, pointing towards the A3530-A3532 pair. From our survey we obtained ~600 new radial velocity determinations: using this sample, we studied the dynamics of the four Abell clusters in this region (A3528, A3530, A3532 and A3535) and derived their mean velocities and velocity dispersions. Moreover we performed a substructure analysis, both bi-dimensional and three-dimensional, of the whole complex. All the characteristics of this structure seem to point toward a merging scenario in an early stage, whose effects on the galaxy population and on the cluster dynamics are not yet evident, contrary to what happens in the nearby A3558 complex, where the merging events are in a rather advanced stage and were already able to induce modifications in the galaxy population.

Contrastive Self-Supervised Learning with Domain-Specific Augmentation for Script Classification of Chinese Ancient Manuscripts
Creators: name: Xu, Haoran
name: Xia, Yixin
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Classification of Chinese ancient manuscripts is crucial for historical scholarship and cultural preservation but faces significant challenges due to complex script variability, material degradation, and limited annotated datasets. This study proposes a novel framework leveraging contrastive self-supervised learning for accurate identification and classification of Chinese ancient manuscript scripts, including Seal, Clerical, Cursive, Regular, and Running scripts. Utilizing publicly accessible datasets, particularly the CASIA Ancient Chinese Handwritten Character Database, the HCL2000 Historical Chinese Literature Dataset, and the HUSAM-SinoCDCS Collection, our method integrates domain-specific augmentations that reflect realistic manuscript conditions such as faded ink, fragmentation, and surface damage. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework consistently outperforms traditional supervised learning baselines, achieving higher accuracy and robustness even under low-resource labeled scenarios. The outcomes of this research contribute to advancing computational methods for ancient document analysis and offer valuable tools for digital humanities efforts focused on preserving Chinese cultural heritage.
Mutual learning in International Health Partnerships: Examining reverse innovation in the Norwegian health partnership scheme, fk Norway
Creators: name: Issa, Hamdi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Increasingly high-income countries (HIC) have introduced concepts of mutual learning and reciprocity in their International Health Partnerships (IHPs), technical exchange links between their institutions and institutions in low and middle-income countries (LMIC), suggesting an environment ripe for Reverse Innovation. This research is a case study of fk Norway’s unique partnership model, one that explicitly mandates exchange of personnel between these contexts, to explore whether (and how) this leads to a learning dynamic supportive of the exchange of technical know-how. The research draws on qualitative research methods, mainly semi-structured interviews, observations and document review, collected over a 15-month period, as a means to unpack this reciprocity narrative and understand how it is used in practice. Drawing on key concepts from the literatures of organizational learning, power and post-colonialism, the thesis sheds light on how individual and organisational learning is managed and framed in IHPs, and how the rhetoric of reciprocity is massaged and eroded for different purposes. The reciprocity narrative was exposed to be a euphemism of value mostly at institutional levels. Implicit knowledge hierarchies permitted HIC learning to be constituted of cultural, rather than technical, learning. Differences in what learning partners acquired and what learning partners shared was observed and enabled unequal power relationships to be perpetuated. Together, the concept of ‘epistemic fragility’ is advanced – where HIC participants exhibit an effortful reinstatement of a learning status quo. These apparent paradoxes and fragilities in knowledge brokerage were observed to influence whose knowledge was favoured. The research allowed a unique immersion into a governmental organisation and its IHPs and identifies a conduit where inconsistencies can be redressed through semantics and leadership. The analytical assertions offered by the research have considerable value in the examination of complex coordinating organisations managing IHP portfolios.

Consta la Memoria de cuatro capítulos y de dos anexos. En el Capítulo 1 se dan datos sobre personal, gastos e ingresos, referidos por ámbitos y áreas científicas. E! Capítulo II trata, en forma resumida, de las realizaciones investigadoras llevadas a cabo por los Institutos, agrupados por ámbitos científicos. En el Capñtulo III se incluyen las relaciones nacionales e internacionales mantenidas por el C.S.I.C., con datos sobre Convenios, Contratos y Congresos . El Capitulo IV se ocupa de las actividades científico técnicas no propiamente investigadoras: enseñanza, publicaciones propias (revistas), normalización, información y documentación, medio ambiente y asistencia técnica . El Anexo 1 incluye los artículos originales, las patentes, los libros, así como las tesis y tesinas realizados y publicados por el personal del Organismo. A partir de esta información puede hacerse una certera estimación de la aportación investigadora, cualitativa y cuantitativa, del C.S.I.C., en el Anexo II se relacionan los Institutos y Centros del Organismo. En el orden organizativo, establecidas en el segundo semestre de 1978 los Organos Colegiados de Gobierno y de Asesoramiento del Organismo -Junta de Gobierno y Comisiones Científica y Económica (Real Decreto 3450/1977, del 30-12-77)- se procedió, a lo largo de 1979 y a través de las propuestas y diálogo mantenido con los Claustros de los Institutos, a dar a los Centros las estructuras más adecuadas en consonancia con la nueva reglamentación, así como a los nombramientos correspondientes. Este nuevo ordenamiento, conjuntamente con una serie de normas de funcionamiento aprobadas por la Junta de Gobierno sobre relaciones con otras instituciones y con las empresas, sobre asistencia técnica, financiación de congresos, becas, anteproyecto de normativa de personal auxiliar de la investigación, distribución de presupuesto, etc., constituyeron los aspectos de mayor interés dentro del campo organizativo y estructural.

description: We report measurements of the dynamics of isolated $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ in single crystal rutile TiO$_{2}$ using $β$-detected NMR. From spin-lattice relaxation and motional narrowing, we find two sets of thermally activated dynamics: one below 100 K; and one at higher temperatures. At low temperature, the activation barrier is $26.8(6)$ meV with prefactor $1.23(5) \times 10^{10}$ s$^{-1}$. We suggest this is unrelated to Li$^{+}$ motion, and rather is a consequence of electron polarons in the vicinity of the implanted $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ that are known to become mobile in this temperature range. Above 100 K, Li$^{+}$ undergoes long-range diffusion as an isolated uncomplexed cation, characterized by an activation energy and prefactor of $0.32(2)$ eV and $1.0(5) \times 10^{16}$ s$^{-1}$, in agreement with macroscopic diffusion measurements. These results in the dilute limit from a microscopic probe indicate that Li$^{+}$ concentration does not limit the diffusivity even up to high concentrations, but that some key ingredient is missing in the calculations of the migration barrier. The anomalous prefactors provide further insight into both Li$^{+}$ and polaron motion.

description: Women living with HIV (WLWH) are more likely to suffer from depression than seronegative women and are also more likely to suffer from depression than men living with HIV. There is limited depression research with WLWH in Vietnam. Twenty in-depth interviews with WLWH were conducted to identify pathways leading to depression and coping strategies for depression. Participants were recruited from an antiretroviral treatment clinic in northern Vietnam. Audio-recorded interviews were transcribed, translated, and analysed to identify key themes. All participants reported sudden loss of social support, debilitating depression, and suicidal ideation in the first six months after HIV diagnosis. While some were able to cope with their status after several months, others continued to struggle due to HIV-related stigma that was perceived as more isolating for WLWH than for men. Women who were able to effectively cope with depression found ways to re-establish connections to family and community. Interventions to improve mental wellbeing should link WLWH to mental health services immediately after diagnosis and address loss of support and stigma, as they contributed to the onset and persistence of depression after HIV diagnosis. Community-level HIV stigma reduction interventions may also help repair broken social bonds and foster new ones.

description: Let $B$ and $F=\frac 12F_{μν}dx^μ\wedge dx^ν$ be two forms, $F_{μν}$ being the field strength of an abelian connection $A$. The topological $BF$ system is given by the integral of $B\wedge F$. With "kinetic energy'' terms added for $B$ and $A$, it generates a mass for $A$ thereby suggesting an alternative to the Higgs mechanism, and also gives the London equations. The $BF$ action, being the large length and time scale limit of this augmented action, is thus of physical interest. In earlier work, it has been studied on spatial manifold $Σ$ with boundaries $\partial Σ$, and the existence of edge states localised at $\partial Σ$ has been established. They are analogous to the conformal family of edge states to be found in a Chern-Simons theory in a disc. Here we introduce charges and vortices (thin flux tubes) as sources in the $BF$ system and show that they acquire an infinite number of spin excitations due to renormalization, just as a charge coupled to a Chern-Simons potential acquires a conformal family of spin excitations. For a vortex, these spins are transverse and attached to each of its points, so that it resembles a ribbon. Vertex operators for the creatin of these sources are constructed and interpreted in terms of a Wilson integral involving $A$ and a similar integral involving $B$. The standard spin-statistics theorem is proved for this sources. A new spin-statistics theorem, showing the equality of the ``interchange'' of two identical vortex loops and $2π$ rotation of the transverse spins of a constituent vortex, is established. Aharonov-Bohm interactions of charges and vortices are studied. The existence of topologically nontrivial vortex spins is pointed out and their vertex

description: Dust devils are likely the dominant source of dust for the martian atmosphere, but the amount and frequency of dust-lifting depend on the statistical distribution of dust devil parameters. Dust devils exhibit pressure perturbations and, if they pass near a barometric sensor, they may register as a discernible dip in a pressure time-series. Leveraging this fact, several surveys using barometric sensors on landed spacecraft have revealed dust devil structures and occurrence rates. However powerful they are, though, such surveys suffer from non-trivial biases that skew the inferred dust devil properties. For example, such surveys are most sensitive to dust devils with the widest and deepest pressure profiles, but the recovered profiles will be distorted, broader and shallow than the actual profiles. In addition, such surveys often do not provide wind speed measurements alongside the pressure time series, and so the durations of the dust devil signals in the time series cannot be directly converted to profile widths. Fortunately, simple statistical and geometric considerations can de-bias these surveys, allowing conversion of the duration of dust devil signals into physical widths, given only a distribution of likely translation velocities, and the recovery of the underlying distributions of physical parameters. In this study, we develop a scheme for de-biasing such surveys. Applying our model to an in-situ survey using data from the Phoenix lander suggests a larger dust flux and a dust devil occurrence rate about ten times larger than previously inferred. Comparing our results to dust devil track surveys suggests only about one in five low-pressure cells lifts sufficient dust to leave a visible track.

description: La variedad de ciencias cultivadas en los Institutos del C.S.I.C. hace difícil dar a conocer, con detalle, los resultados de los trabajos de investigación realizados y las restantes actividades desarrolladas . Por ello, esta Memoria se ha preparado de forma concisa, agrupando, por sectores de actividad, los centros que cultivan disciplinas afines y cuya programación de actividades comienza a hacerse conjuntamente . La Memoria pretende reflejar cual es la situación general del C.S.I.C. aportando datos estadísticos, resumiendo las líneas de trabajo y los resultados más destacables de las investigaciones realizadas y haciendo referencia a su incidencia en el desarrollo científico, cultural y social de España y a su trascendencia en la economía y desarrollo de nuestra industria . Esta Memoria resume las informaciones que aparecen en las elaboradas por los Patronatos del C.S.I.C., en general más detalladas, y los Informes de Actividad preparados por los propios Centros. En anexos se incluyen las direcciones de los diferentes Institutos con los que, eventualmente, puede tomarse contacto para ampliación de datos. El C.S.I.C. está‚ actualmente comprometido en la elaboración de una nueva normativa, y en un proceso de agrupación y coordinación de sus centros para obtener un mejor rendimiento de sus medios de trabajo y también en una amplia tarea de programación de sus actividades en líneas de investigación de interés prioritario . Es un deber resaltar el interés y la preparación que para ello están demostrando los investigadores. Puedo decir, en nombre de todos ellos, que los Investigadores del Consejo pretendemos que sea un instrumento eficaz capaz de crear y desarrollar la Ciencia y la Tecnología que España necesita actualmente, y esperan del Gobierno y de la Sociedad una atención interesada, tanto para la dotación correcta de sus medios de trabajo, como para el planteamiento de problemas y la utilización innovadora de los resultados de las investigaciones.
