Esperti di corpi, corpi di esperti: expertise e dietetica.
2021
Today, dietetics is sectoral, specialised. The cause, among others, is to be found in the emergence of so-called nutritionism, a paradigm that arose at the end of the the 19th century and established itself in the first half of the 20th century, which brings together discoveries from food science and the needs of the food industry, imposing the dominance of calories and so-called nutrients. This shifted the attention of scientists and ordinary people to the invisible substances that food contains on a chemical and physical level (vitamins, fats sugars, proteins, and the like), with a profound transformation the way in which we consider food: no longer just units and sensory units, made up o…

Entry and processing of Borrelia burgdorferi pleomorphic forms
2015
Lymen borrelioosi on Suomessakin yleinen puutiaisten levittämä tauti. Borrelioosin ensimmäisiä oireita ovat muun muassa puutiaisen pureman ympärille muodostuva ihottuma, päänsärky, väsymys ja kuume. Myöhemmin tauti voi aiheuttaa nivel- tai sydäntulehduksen sekä neurologisia oireita. Borrelioosi on monessa suhteessa kiistanalainen tauti, sillä esimerkiksi sen hoidosta ja mahdollisesta kroonistumisesta on kaksi eriävää näkemystä. Taudin aiheuttaja on Borrelia burgdorferi -bakteeri (Bb). Bb pystyy välttelemään isännän immuunipuolustusta useilla eri mekanismeilla. Bakteeri on korkkiruuvinmuotoinen spirokeetta, mutta voi esiintyä myös epätyypillisinä muotoina, joihin kuuluu esimerkiksi pyöreä mu…

ARGUMENTS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A SOVEREIGN INVESTMENT FUND IN ROMANIA
2013
The creation of the national development fund was approved in 2006 through the specific legislation. The main argument in supporting the idea of creating this fund was the fact that Romania still had to privatize some more governmental ownership companies and the sums that would be obtained were going to be used according to some very precise rules. Another argument was that the executive power had to assure the financing of some major infrastructure investment projects, to assure the local contribution of the project financed by structural funds and to assure de necessary funds for solving the problems caused by the retrocession of some buildings. The audit report of the Romanian Court of …
The giant panda is cryptic
2021
The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is an iconic mammal, but the function of its black-and-white coloration is mysterious. Using photographs of giant pandas taken in the wild and state-of-the-art image analysis, we confirm the counterintuitive hypothesis that their coloration provides camouflage in their natural environment. The black fur blends into dark shades and tree trunks, whereas white fur matches foliage and snow when present, and intermediate pelage tones match rocks and ground. At longer viewing distances giant pandas show high edge disruption that breaks up their outline, and up close they rely more on background matching. The results are consistent across acuity-corrected c…

Tattoo branding
2018
Questo contributo indaga una pratica specifica di quelle che riguardano la body modification: il branding, ovvero la marchiatura a fuoco del corpo. Si confronta questo fenomeno con quello del tatuaggio tradizionalmente inteso, dal punto di vista espressivo (modelli di corpo, forme della marchiatura) e dei significati sociali connessi (valorizzazioni sociali e storiche della marchiatura a fuoco), con un confronto anche con altre pratiche di marchiatura a fuoco (su cose e animali).
