The Neuropsychological Profile of Infantile Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

2011

It has been shown that children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) exhibit specific cognitive deficits. However, the neuropsychological profile has not yet been fully characterized. In order to control for the contribution of motor impairments as a confounding variable that is usually present when assessing children with muscular pathologies, we compared children with DMD to a group of children with an autoimmune pathology that does not entail either brain or cognitive dysfunction but does imply motor impairment: juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA). An extensive neuropsychological evaluation was administered, including intelligence, perception, language, memory and learning, attention, …

Research Group in Reproductive Medicine

The mission of the Reproductive Medicine research group is to advance the understanding of processes associated with human reproduction for translational application, improving the efficiency of assisted reproductive treatments and maternal-fetal health. They follow a particular approach in the fields of regenerative medicine related to the endometrium and genomic studies on embryonic viability and endometrial receptivity, as well as other factors that cause infertility.

Effects of Large-Scale Releases on the Genetic Structure of Red Sea Bream (Pagrus major, Temminck et Schlegel) Populations in Japan.

2014

Large-scale hatchery releases are carried out for many marine fish species worldwide; nevertheless, the long-term effects of this practice on the genetic structure of natural populations remains unclear. The lack of knowledge is especially evident when independent stock enhancement programs are conducted simultaneously on the same species at different geographical locations, as occurs with red sea bream (Pagrus major, Temminck et Schlegel) in Japan. In this study, we examined the putative effects of intensive offspring releases on the genetic structure of red sea bream populations along the Japanese archipelago by genotyping 848 fish at fifteen microsatellite loci. Our results suggests weak…

Nano Hybrid Lab

Current interests of NHL Group involve the development of novel efficient recyclable and sustainable catalysts (metal nanoparticles, organometallic- and organo-catalysts), the development of new functional hybrid silica-, poly ionic liquid-, polydopamine-based materials as well as carbon nanoforms-based materials (fullerenes, nanotubes, nanohorns, nanodiamonds and graphene) and the development of novel protocols for the chemical functionalization of nanocarbons.

The UL Centre for European and Transition Studies

The UL Centre for European and Transition Studies (CETS) was established in 2000 as a unit of the University of Latvia. It aims to promote and support interdisciplinary academic and applied research on European issues, involving students from both EU Member States and from a number of third countries. CETS focuses on sectors, such as economics, political science, law, public administration and regional policy. CETS includes projects by Jean Monnet and Marie Curie from European Commission and provides advice to state institutions on economic and social development issues related to European integration. CETS operates as an internationally recognised forum for debate for academics, graduates …

An Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis of International Students’Learning Experiences in the Context of COVID-19

2021

Šī interpretatīvās fenomenoloģijas analīzes (IPA) pētījuma mērķis ir atklāt to ārvalstu studentu pieredzi, kuri COVID-19 pandēmijas laikā mācījās ārzemēs. Šis pētījums pēta, kādu jēgu ārvalstu studenti piešķir savai pieredzei un uztverei, studējot ārzemēs. Šajā pētījumā ārvalstu studenti tiek definēti kā studenti, kuri vismaz vienu semestri studē universitātē valstī, kas nav viņu mītnes valsts. Aptaujājot ārvalstu studentus, kuri studējuši trīs dažādās Eiropas universitātēs, autore apraksta starptautiskās studentu pieredzes fenomenu globālās krīzes laikā. Šī pētījuma rezultāti atklāj gan pozitīvos, gan negatīvos starptautiskās studentu pieredzes aspektus, kuru mērķis ir sniegt svarīgu ieska…

Museo storico dei Motori e dei Meccanismi

The energy is neither created nor destroyed but is transformed. To carry out this process and get the form of energy from time to time more useful, many machines were invented, whose development and whose applications have had significant effects in the scientific, economic and social. From the Industrial Revolution onwards, the use of machines has spread everywhere, in the energy sector, industry, transport, household etc. Understand the history and prospects of development therefore it means to enrich their scientific and cultural heritage. The Museum houses important collections of engines, mechanisms, industrial, scientific and educational that, since the founding of the Royal Applicati…
