description: In der neuen Folge sprechen die Moderatorinnen Selma Gather und Prof. Dr. Dana-Sophia Valentiner mit djb-Ehrenpräsidentin und Pionierin für die Gleichberechtigung Dr. Lore Maria Peschel-Gutzeit. In dem Gespräch berichtet sie von ihrem beeindruckenden Berufsweg, frauenrechtspolitischen Meilensteinen und spricht über die wichtigsten Projekte für die Zukunft. Diese Folge ist gleichzeitig die Abschlussfolge der Kampagne „100 Jahre Frauen in juristischen Berufen". Es geht unter anderem um die „Lex Peschel", eine Ernennung zur Justizsenatorin, von der die Ernannte selbst aus der Zeitung erfuhr und um charmante Methoden in einem frauenfeindlichen Umfeld. So kann man mit dieser Folge aus der Vergangenheit für die Zukunft lernen – mit einer der wichtigsten Juristinnen der letzten 100 Jahre, der ehemaligen ersten djb-Vorsitzenden, die als junge Anwältin noch mit drei der „ersten Juristinnen" zusammengearbeitet hat, und die bis heute den Stift nicht fallen lässt. Die Kampagne „100 Jahre Frauen in juristischen Berufen", die finanziell gefördert wurde durch das Bundesministerium der Justiz, hat der djb 2022 anlässlich des Jubiläums des „Gesetzes über die Zulassung der Frauen zu den Ämtern und Berufen in der Rechtspflege vom 11. Juli 1922 (Reichsgesetzblatt 1922 I, S. 573)" durchgeführt. Das Gesetz ermöglichte Frauen den Zugang zu den juristischen Berufen, beseitigte endlich die formalen Hindernisse und gewährte Frauen Zugang zum Staatsexamen sowie schließlich zu den juristischen Berufen.

description: There is a profound need in bioprocess manufacturing for low-cost single-use sensors that allow timely monitoring of critical product and production attributes. One such opportunity is screen-printed enzyme-based electrochemical sensors, which have the potential to enable low-cost online and/or off-line monitoring of specific parameters in bioprocesses. In this study, such a single-use electrochemical biosensor for lactate monitoring is designed and evaluated. Several aspects of its fabrication and use are addressed, including enzyme immobilization, stability, shelf-life and reproducibility. Applicability of the biosensor to off-line monitoring of bioprocesses was shown by testing in two common industrial bioprocesses in which lactate is a critical quality attribute (Corynebacterium fermentation and mammalian Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell cultivation). The specific response to lactate of the screen-printed biosensor was characterized by amperometric measurements. The usability of the sensor at typical industrial culture conditions was favorably evaluated and benchmarked with commonly used standard methods (HPLC and enzymatic kits). The single-use biosensor allowed fast and accurate detection of lactate in prediluted culture media used in industrial practice. The design and fabrication of the biosensor could most likely be adapted to several other critical bioprocess analytes using other specific enzymes. This makes this single-use screen-printed biosensor concept a potentially interesting and versatile tool for further applications in bioprocess monitoring.

The Fairy Queen Mab: Mediating Elizabeth in Early Modern England

Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2013
Subjects: Literature

description: Jennifer L. Ailles Abstract: The Fairy/Queen/Mab: Mediating Elizabeth in Early Modern England Shakespeare’s Queen Mab speech in Romeo and Juliet is usually read as a discourse about the miniature Fairy Queen who acts as a metaphorical midwife, delivering dreams to individuals. In The Fairy/Queen/Mab I argue, first, that Shakespeare’s Queen Mab is not a fairy; instead, she is a daemonic hag figure, one that has a precedent in the anonymous play The Historie of Jacob and Esau. The mythology that posits the figure of Mab as the Fairy Queen is the result of critical and editorial conflation by scholars of stories and representations, beginning with Jonson’s Entertainment at Althrope, that occurred after Romeo and Juliet was written and performed. The first part of my study examines how Mab became known as the Fairy Queen by later authors and critics. In the second part, I argue that the figure of Mab, first as a midwife and hag, and then later as a fairy, is used to represent and mediate queenship, particularly that of Queen Elizabeth I. Looking at works by Randolph, Cavendish, Drayton, and Herrick, in addition to those already mentioned, I use mediation theory to examine the discourses of queenship that are presented though each author’s use and representation of Mab. Each author manipulates the mythology of Mab that is presented in earlier texts to inform their own depiction, highlighting negative or positive elements to problematize pro- or anti-monarchical sentiments in relation to neo-Elizabethan nostalgia for the ideal Tudor court. This study builds on the examinations of queenship by critics such as Susan Doran, Carole Levin, and Julia M. Walker that examine representations and discourses surrounding Elizabeth and how they functioned during her reign and after when James, Charles, and the Interregnum government ruled. This is the first full length study of Queen Mab’s revisionist historiography and the first extended study to consider the transformation of Mab into the Fairy Queen in relation to Elizabeth and then her further mediation, transformation, and pluralization.

description: Ziel der vorliegenden Masterarbeit sind eine mehrdimensionale und multiperspektivische Evaluation eines Medienpräventionsgefässes, welches Bezugspersonen von Primarschulkindern darin befähigen soll, diese in ihrer Mediennutzung unterstützend zu begleiten, und die anschliessende Ableitung von Schlussfolgerungen für die Praxis.
 Im ersten Teil der Arbeit wird der mehrdimensionale Begriff von Qualität in der Gesundheitsförderung und Prävention dargestellt, die systemische Präventionstheorie als Grundlage der Evaluation eingeführt und der empirische Forschungsstand im Bereich der Begleitung der Mediennutzung von Kindern im Primarschulalter abgebildet. Im zweiten Teil werden das Konzept des zu evaluierenden Medienbildungsgefässes sowie dessen Erarbeitungsprozess mit partizipativen und kooperativen Einbezügen der unterschiedlichen Zielgruppen vorgestellt. Darauf aufbauend findet sich im dritten Teil die Evaluation, die einerseits eine Analyse des Konzeptes und andererseits eine multiperspektivische Betrachtung der Umsetzung umfasst. Anschliessend werden Schlussfolgerungen für die Überarbeitung des Konzeptes gezogen. Die Berücksichtigung der Mehrdimensionalität von Qualität in der Evaluation ermöglicht die Bewertung von ethischen, strukturellen, prozessorientierten und ergebnisorientierten Qualitätsdimensionen. Durch die Multiperspektivität kann zudem Wissen nutzbar gemacht werden, welches nur implizit innerhalb gewisser Zielgruppen präsent ist.
 Durch die Berücksichtigung dieser beiden Aspekte kann im Rahmen der Arbeit aufgezeigt werden, dass die Übertragung von theoretischen und empirischen Wissensbeständen eine zentrale Herausforderung für Projekte in der Prävention und Gesundheitsförderung ist, der nur durch ein ganzheitliches Qualitätsverständnis begegnet werden kann. Es kann Verbesserungspotential in diversen Teilbereichen des Medienpräventionsgefässes eruiert werden, was
 eine Optimierung der Qualität der künftigen Umsetzung ermöglicht.

description: This is the first study which evaluated the influence of cave size and presence of bat guano in ant visitation in Brazilian caves. We provide a list of the ants associated with 27 caves in northeastern Brazil, an area situated in the transition between Cerrado (Brazilian savanna) and Amazon Domain. The study was conducted between January and August 2010. We recorded 24 ant species inserted into 12 genera, 10 tribes, and six subfamilies. The size of the cave and the presence of guano did not influence the richness of ants, and most of the caves had single species. Camponotus atriceps was the species with the larger distribution, being collected in five caves. In addition, we discuss geographic distribution of records and possible ecological roles of ants in cave environments.
Temperature Influence on Species Co-Occurrence Patterns in Treefall Gap and Dense Forest Ant Communities in a Terra- Firme Forest of Central Amazon, Brazil

description: In this study we evaluated the influence of temperature and species co-occurrence on the structure of an ant community of treefall gaps and surrounding dense forests in a terra-firme forest of Central Amazon, Brazil. For this, we collected ants at different hours, and at the time of each collection we measured the temperature of the environment. Even with the difference in the temperature variation and variation throughout the day, there was no difference in the richness and abundance of ants among the environments. Also, the ant species are distributed randomly and independently of one another in both studied environments in accordance with a null model (C-score). However, although not influenced by temperature, the ant composition of treefall gaps was different from the ant community of the surrounding dense forest. Possibly the composition and ant foraging in environments of treefall gaps and surrounding dense forests are not only influenced by temperature, but also by the interaction of this factor with the structural complexity of vegetation in terms of sites available for nesting and feeding, and other microclimatic factors. This generates a difference in ant composition of both environments. In addition, the structuring of ant community in tropical rain forests may actually be stochastic or neutral within each environment.
Exploring Ways for Assessing Impact of Place-Based Citizen Science on Subjective Well-being of Refugee Youth
Creators: name: Egorova, Ekaterina
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Citizen Science and health is a rapidly emerging strand within the citizen science field. The mainstream of this work appears to be represented by projects that are directly related to personal health, whereby scientists and patients are jointly working on the better management of health conditions. This poster presents a different angle – the impact of place-based citizen science projects (which are not focussing on health) on subjective well-being (SWB) more broadly, and explores ways of measuring such impact. In particular, it presents two recent citizen science projects where temporarily displaced youth from Ukraine explored public spaces of their new home towns and collected various types of data related to the environment. We report on our mixed methods impact assessment studies that rely on sketch maps, interviews, focus groups and a survey based on a scale from previous research. We suggest that place-based citizen science demonstrates the potential for transformative impact and increased resilience of communities and ecosystems alike. Especially in the context of residential displacement, which puts individuals into an emotionally-depleting and stressful state for an extended period of time, place-based citizen science can become a form of curated sociability or nature-based social prescription. We conclude by calling for the active inclusion of refugees and temporarily-displaced families in citizen science, contributing to their restoration and well-being.
Different tolerances of symbiotic and nonsymbiotic ant-plant networks to species extinctions

description: The knowledge of the mechanisms that shape biodiversity–stability relationships is essential to understand ecological and evolutionary dynamics of interacting species. However, most studies focus only on species loss and ignore the loss of interactions. In this study, I evaluated the topological structure of two different ant-plant networks: symbiotic (ants and myrmecophytes) and nonsymbiotic (ants and plants with extrafloral nectaries). Moreover, I also evaluated in both networks the tolerance to plant and ant species extinction using a new approach. For this, I used models based on simulations of cumulative removals of species from the network at random. Both networks were fundamentally different in the interaction and extinction patterns. The symbiotic network was more specialized and less robust to species extinction. On the other hand, the nonsymbiotic network tends to be functionally redundant and more robust to species extinction. The difference for food resource utilization and ant nesting in both ant-plant interactions can explain the observed pattern. In short, I contributed in this manner to our understanding of the biodiversity maintenance and coevolutionary processes in facultative and obligate mutualisms.

description: The aim of this study was to verify the influence of the habitat fragmentation on the Ant Fauna in an urban fragment of Semideciduous Seasonal Atlantic Forest located in the municipality of Marília, São Paulo, Brazil. The studied fragment was divided into three environments in relation to edge: “Edge” (2m), “Transition” (30m) and “Interior” (90m). By using pitfalls traps and attractive baits there were done nine samples between November 2007 and February 2008. There were collected 3.873 individuals distributed into five subfamilies, 19 genera and 33 species. Five species were abundant on three studied environments: Ectatomma sp1, Mycocepurus goeldii, Paratrechina sp1, Pheidole sp2, Trachymyrmex sp1, Wasmannia auropunctata . The edge and transition environments presented the lower Simpsons diversity index and higher species dominance. However, it was observed little variation between these parameters. Faunistic similarity between environments, expressed by Jaccard’s similarity index showed high similarity between all studied environments. Because the studied site is an urban fragment, the similarity found between these areas can be related to habitat fragmentation process, an historical of constant anthropic perturbation and low local colonization rates. However, we suggest that a posteriori evaluation should be done with other arthropods groups like spiders and beetles in due to understand the changes that occur in urban fragments and support the choice of conservation and management actions in favor of this important forest remnant localized in urban area of Marília, São Paulo, Brazil.

description: This thesis analyzes the provisions of multilateral, continental and regional intellectual property (IP) and trade agreements to explore whether these provisions advance, or compromise, food security in West Africa. The agreements have been examined for how their provisions integrate IP and food security norms and policies, both within and between different multilateral treaties; and the extent to which the IP frameworks are adaptable to the regional conditions that determine food security in the West African context. In the thesis, food security is viewed as part of the public interest objectives of IP treaties, the human right to food, and the socio-economic rights of international laws, which are relevant in interpreting IP agreements. The method adopted is to examine interfaces among different IP treaties and linkages between regional IP regulation and other rule-based systems, using the principles and tools that international law provides for analyzing relationships between treaties and norms. Critical analysis is made of a regional agreement signed between the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the European Union (EU), the 2014 EU-ECOWAS Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA), to assess what implications the agreement may have for food security in West Africa. Interdisciplinary research is carried out to identify the characteristics needed to advance food security in the region of West Africa. To meet these requirements, philosophical and doctrinal analysis of IP laws and legal theories is conducted to identify which legal principles are best suited for advancing food security in the region. Based on the findings, the thesis draws up a model framework for IP protection that is more suitable for enhancing food security in West Africa.

description: Uniform inference of exoplanet-host star parameters (such as mass, radius, and age) taking into account the relevant stellar physics is essential in the robust characterisation of planetary systems. This is attributed to the strong synergy between planets and their host-stars. In this poster, we present a machine learning tool which accurately and precisely infers exoplanet host-star parameters, based on available set of atmospheric constraints. The tool rapidly trains on a set of theoretical model observables, delivering instant estimates of stellar parameters. The results from our machine learning tool are consistent with stellar properties of binary stars, LEGACY sample, and sun-like main-sequence stars in the APOKASC catalogue. In particular, our code yield systematics for the binaries of up-to 2.3% in radius and 5.1% in mass. For the LEGACY sample, the systematics in radius, mass, and age are 1.6%,  3.3%, and 14.8%, respectively. Therefore, the tool  can be adopted in uniformly deriving stellar properties of a catalogue of exoplanet-host stars.
Cutting Edge: Retrobulbar Inflammation, Adipogenesis, and Acute Orbital Congestion in a Preclinical Female Mouse Model of Graves’ Orbitopathy Induced by Thyrotropin Receptor Plasmid-in Vivo Electroporation

description: Graves' orbitopathy (GO) is a complication in Graves' disease (GD) but mechanistic insights into pathogenesis remain unresolved, hampered by lack of animal model. The TSH receptor (TSHR) and perhaps IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) are considered relevant antigens. We show that genetic immunization of human TSHR (hTSHR) A-subunit plasmid leads to extensive remodeling of orbital tissue, recapitulating GO. Female BALB/c mice immunized with hTSHR A-subunit or control plasmids by in vivo muscle electroporation were evaluated for orbital remodeling by histopathology and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Antibodies to TSHR and IGF-1R were present in animals challenged with hTSHR A-subunit plasmid, with predominantly TSH blocking antibodies and were profoundly hypothyroid. Orbital pathology was characterized by interstitial inflammation of extraocular muscles with CD3+ T cells, F4/80+ macrophages, and mast cells, accompanied by glycosaminoglycan deposition with resultant separation of individual muscle fibers. Some animals showed heterogeneity in orbital pathology with 1) large infiltrate surrounding the optic nerve or 2) extensive adipogenesis with expansion of retrobulbar adipose tissue. A striking finding that underpins the new model were the in vivo MRI scans of mouse orbital region that provided clear and quantifiable evidence of orbital muscle hypertrophy with protrusion (proptosis) of the eye. Additionally, eyelid manifestations of chemosis, including dilated and congested orbital blood vessels, were visually apparent. Immunization with control plasmids failed to show any orbital pathology. Overall, these findings support TSHR as the pathogenic antigen in GO. Development of a new preclinical model will facilitate molecular investigations on GO and evaluation of new therapeutic interventions.
The Body in the Classroom after Covid-19
Creators: name: Wiant Cummins, Molly
Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2024

description: In this essay, I use autoethnography to investigate the multiple adaptations of the (instructor’s) performative body in the classroom, both online and in-person, due to Covid-19. Specifically, attuning to these adaptations makes space for reclamation of the (instructor’s) performative body in pedagogical spaces by re-engaging embodied pedagogy. Through autoethnography, I offer insights on dis/connection in online teaching, especially in an emergency, remote setting; the adaptation necessary to move back to in-person teaching during a pandemic; and a recommitment to acknowledging the identity of bodies that enter pedagogical spaces together. These lessons learned require focus on the power and privilege, both institutional and societal, that instructors and students must navigate in the classroom. Ultimately, through this exploration of the performative body’s adaptations, embodied pedagogy in this new stage of the pandemic highlights the possibilities of our classrooms to be places where pedagogical bodies can re-engage one another in critical love.

description: The aim of the paper is to investigate the co-influence of noise and carbon dioxide on people in different situations (inside/outside houses/classrooms) depending on the traffic intensity, the fuel used for heating in residential buildings etc.). All the measurements and the questionnaire have been carried out during the autumn of 2019 (at the mean temperature of 5–10 °C). Riga has a more intensive traffic compared to Tallinn and has greater problems of exceeding the permissible noise levels. The levels of carbon dioxide inside classrooms are also very high in Latvia (1,500–2,000 ppm). The concentration of carbon dioxide outside buildings is low in the forest areas (measured in the south of Estonia), being 340–350 ppm. In regional towns, it is 500 ppm (measured in autumn-winter near a busy street). The co-influence of noise and carbon dioxide on the residents has been investigated by using the Weinstein questionnaire. High carbon dioxide levels cause fatigue. Although it was not particularly pointed out by the residents questioned in a panel house with small apartments, the air was considered to be stuffy. The house is situated near a busy street, so the problems with noise are higher. ANOVA statistics has been used for the questionnaire (p < 0.001, α = 0.93). The decrease of noise and carbon dioxide levels help people stay healthy and the environmental impact from the investigation is emphasising the necessity and providing possibilities to decrease the concentration of CO2 in the ambient air.

Literacies of the Heart and Antiracist Pedagogy
Creators: name: Monzo, Lilia
name: Marquez, Elena
Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2024

description: Challenging structural violence is a major project of our time. The massive Black Lives Matter (BLM) uprisings of Summer 2020 brought greater awareness of the systemic racism of universities and a commitment to challenge it. A Marxist-humanist lens recognizes racism as foundational to the racial-colonial capitalist patriarchy and the university as deeply implicated in the development and maintenance of these structures. While all these interlocking oppressions must be eradicated, in the US, racism has historically galvanized more people to action. For this we need a populace with critical literacy to connect their daily oppressions to structural forces. Critical literacy also encourages us to listen to the Oppressed whose “Reason and force” may prove useful toward our liberation. A critical literacy of the heart, drawing of Paulo Freire, is one that challenges us to transform structures of oppression through humanizing antiracist pedagogy. The bulk of the paper is drawn from a duoethnography of two Latina instructors. The stories shared offer insights into the deep-seeded racist policies and practices in education and the complexity of challenging these. We argue that such complexity calls for an intentional antiracist pedagogy of “other doing” that goes against the “commonsense” of our society.
