Laboratory of social cognitive neuroscience

During the last decades, research in the field of Neuroscience has made amazing discoveries that have transformed our understanding and improved our comprehension of brain function. This has contributed to the development of new treatments and therapies for various neurological disorders and mental illnesses. The convergence of different disciplines has allowed addressing fundamental issues for the knowledge of human behavior, thought, and emotion. LabNSC group is within this area, Neuroscience, undoubtedly one of the most exciting areas of research in Health Sciences. The Laboratory of Social Cognitive Neuroscience (LabNSC) at the University of Valencia is part of the Department of Psychob…

Architettura/paesaggio - didattica e progetto

2011

Ragionare sul rapporto tra architettura e paesaggio comporta alcune difficoltà, essendo quest’ultimo gravato da parecchi equivoci e fraintendimenti. I più importanti di essi, a mio parere, hanno origine negli anni Sessanta del Novecento, quando gli ambientalisti - per primi - incominciarono a parlare di paesaggio all’interno di un movimento che aveva il suo centro nella denuncia dei danni prodotti, al pianeta, dalla deforestazione piuttosto che dalle emissioni industriali o dalle alterazioni idrogeologiche o dall’uso di pesticidi etc. Negli anni Settanta quel movimento, con una spinta ideologica analoga e con una forte componente di opposizione al modello di sviluppo dominante, si trasformò…

Electrically conductive hydrogel composites made of polyaniline nanoparticles and poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone)

2006

Abstract A novel electrically conductive composite material, consisting of polyaniline (PANI) nanoparticles dispersed in a polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel, was prepared ‘in situ’ by water dispersion polymerisation (DP) of aniline using PVP as steric stabiliser, followed by γ-irradiation induced crosslinking of the PVP component. Conversion yield of aniline into PANI particles was determined via HPLC and gas chromatography, while structural confirmation of the synthesised polymer was sought by FTIR. Morphology and dimensions of PANI particles into the coloured, optically transparent hydrogel was determined by electronic microscopy; moreover, swelling behaviour of composite hydrogels in …

Kick Detection During Offshore Drilling using Artificial Intelligence

2019

Master's thesis Mechatronics MAS500 - University of Agder 2019 An uncontrolled or unobserved influx or kick during drilling has the potential to induce awell blowout, one of the most harmful incidences during drilling both in regards to economicand environmental cost. Since kicks during drilling are serious risks, it is important both toimprove kick detection performance and capabilities, and to develop automatic flux detectionmethodology. There are clear patterns during an influx incident. However, due to complexprocesses and sparse instrumentation, it is difficult to predict the behavior of kicks or lossesbased on sensor data combined with physical models alone. Emerging technologies with…

Cultural Studies

The laboratory was born from the comparison between Cultural Studies and the practical and theoretical urgencies detected in the recent debate on Italian Theory, therefore within that paradigm that has relaunched contemporary Italian thought. The laboratory, part of the international research group “ Italian Thought Network”, operates on three conceptual axes and is powered by their possible, desired and determined encounters: the bios, whose “cultural” analysis is enriched by a fruitful, and in Italy pioneering, attention to neuroscience and cognitive science; (bio)politics, thematized starting from the Foucauldian lesson but “forced” to interact with Gramsci’s elaboration, inspiring the i…

Collection “Lagumina”

“The Sicily told by cartographers” is an exhibition project set up in December 2014, in the spaces of the former Steri Prison, thanks to the sensitive support of Antonio Lagumina, who has created a significant collection of maps of Sicily from the 16th to the 19th century, through long and exciting research conducted over many decades.

Border and Regional Studies Network

Network, established in 2021, under the CEEPUS program. The University of Opole is a leader of the network of 15/universities from Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Moldova, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Montenegro. We propose unique Border and Regional Studies Network comprised of 15/universities located in 10/countries of Central Europe and Balkans. The network’s thematic framework will address one of the crucial problems and challenges of the XXI century like migrations, multi-ethnic societies, revitalization of regional identities, border crossing and border revitalization (the last one strongly influenced by the pandemic). The main objective of the network is sharing…

Baldone Observatory

Baldone Observatory - an object of national significance and the only base of professional optical astronomical observations in Latvia - is currently the basic structure of the Institute of Astronomy of the University of Latvia. The Schmidt Telescope, a unique large-field instrument, is the largest in the Baltics and the twelfth largest telescope of such a system in the world. The telescope is designed for both direct and spectral observations of celestial bodies. Baldone Observatory is the only professional observatory in Latvia, which deals with observations in the optical range.

Oxidative stress induces distinct physiological responses in the two Trebouxia phycobionts of the lichen Ramalina farinacea

2010

† Background and Aims Most lichens form associations with Trebouxia phycobionts and some of them simultaneously include genetically different algal lineages. In other symbiotic systems involving algae (e.g. reef corals), the relative abundances of different endosymbiotic algal clades may change over time. This process seems to provide a mechanism allowing the organism to respond to environmental stress. A similar mechanism may operate in lichens with more than one algal lineage, likewise protecting them against environmental stresses. Here, the physiological responses to oxidative stress of two distinct Trebouxia phycobionts (provisionally named TR1 and TR9) that coexist within the lichen R…

Topical Depth and Writing Quality in Student EFL Compositions

1992

ABSTRACT This study tests a method to describe the relationship between coherence and writing quality by using topical structure analysis. Originally the method was used to examine short professional texts written in the mother tongue (L1) but in the present study it is applied to short compositions written in English by students learning this foreign language (EFL). The analyses showed that what characterized good writers was the ability to develop the topics in their compositions more evenly across several topic levels than mid‐quality writers and especially the poor writers. Good writers were more homogeneous (measured by the size of standard deviation) as a group in handling topics at h…
