Quand les institutions culturelles s´ouvrent au marketing sensoriel ... et s´en défendent : enjeux et paradoxes.

2007

: Stimulate the audience sensoriality seems to be a new spearhead for a lot of cultural institutions. In this way, it is important to understand how the stimulation of the five senses of the audience could be interesting for managers in the cultural field. We wish, within this article, to improve this analysis. Accordingly, we will try, in a first part, to define this "sensory" trend of consumption and to clarify its stakes in comparison with the work completed in other marketing's fields. In a second part, we will appreciate the consequences of this tendency in terms of managerial practices for the professionals of the cultural sector. In a third and last part, we will present the principa…

Mucin 1 deficiency mediates corticosteroid insensitivity in asthma

2019

BACKGROUND: The loss of corticosteroid efficacy is an important issue in severe asthma management and may lead to poor asthma control and deterioration of airflow. Recent data indicate that Mucin 1 (MUC1) membrane mucin can mediate corticosteroid efficacy in chronic rhinosinusitis, but the role of MUC1 in uncontrolled severe asthma is unknown. The objective was to analyze the previously unexplored role of MUC1 on corticosteroid efficacy in asthma. METHODS: Mucin 1 expression was evaluated by real-time PCR in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEC) and blood neutrophils from uncontrolled severe asthma (n=27), controlled mild asthma (n=16), and healthy subjects (n=13). IL-8, MMP9, and GM-CSF …

Effects of ectopic expression of NGAL on doxorubicin sensitivity.

2012

Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL, a.k.a Lnc2) is a member of the lipocalin family which has diverse roles including stabilizing matrix metalloproteinase-9 from auto-degradation and as siderocalins which are important in the transport of iron. NGAL also has important biological functions involved in immunity and inflammation as well as responses to kidney damage. NGAL expression has also been associated with certain neoplasia and is important in the metastasis of breast cancer. Many advanced cancer patients have elevated levels of NGAL in their urine and it has been proposed that NGAL may be a prognostic indicator for certain cancers (e.g. breast, brain, and others). NGAL exp…

Czy śpiewniki są potrzebne?

2020

Musicologists and cultural researchers often consider the issue of songbooks, discussing their content, context of creation and history, as well as possible subsequent editions and changes occurring in them. The article discusses issues related to the functioning and usability of songbooks nowadays, seeking the answer to the question of whether songbooks are needed? It also discusses modern ways of replacing traditional songbooks with new technologies. The text includes examples of contemporary activities related not only to the development and publication of subsequent books, but also initiatives to maintain the songbook tradition and to show its value and timeless usefulness.

Supporting employee engagement with internal communication for high reliability

2015

Tämä pro gradu-työ tarkastelee kirjallisuuden ja empiirisen tutkimuksen avulla työntekijöiden sitoutumista organisaatioissa, joiden toiminnalle korkea luotettavuusvaatimus on edellytys. Työntekijöiden sitoutuminen ja sen merkitys organisaation menestykselle on noussut kiinnostuksenkohteeksi niin käytännössä kuin akateemisen tutkimuksen piirissä. Sisäinen viestintä on yksi väline jolla sitoutumista voi tukea organisaatiossa, ja sillä on myös merkitystä organisaation toimintavarmuudelle. Työ on laadullinen tutkimus, joka toteutettu pääosin abduktiivisella tutkimusmetodilla. Työssä on sekä teoreettinen että empiirinen osuus. Teoriaosuus käsittelee työntekijöiden sit…

Maturation of Epidermal Langerhans Cells In Vitro Is Accompanied by Downregulation of 4F2 (CD98) as Determined by Differential Display

1998

Following short-term culture, Langerhans cells mature morphologically and functionally into potent immunostimulatory cells. As regulation of gene expression accompanies this maturation process, it is likely that differentially expressed genes are involved in the maturation events. Using the recently described method of differential display, we generated cDNA expression patterns starting with mRNA of murine epidermal Langerhans cells isolated either directly (fLC) or following 3 d cultivation (cLC). Five hundred putative differentially expressed cDNA fragments were recovered from the gel. For a part of the fragments differential expression was confirmed by dot blot and Southern hybridization…

Kształtowanie skryptu w kulturze szkoły a zapobieganie zachowaniom ryzykownym dzieci i młodzieży – w kierunku profilaktyki pozytywnej

2019

Głównym celem artykułu jest prezentacja kultury szkoły i jej znaczenie dla skuteczności od-działywań profilaktycznych w szkole. Autor odwołuje się w swych rozważaniach do założeń pro-filaktyki pozytywnej, przeciwstawiając ją profilaktyce negatywnej. Zwraca również uwagę na moż-liwe konsekwencje przyjętych przekonań nauczycieli dotyczących zachowania uczniów oraz dzia-łalności profilaktycznej szkoły. Artykuł zakończony jest postulatami dedykowanymi w szczegól-ności dla organizacji wspierających szkoły w relacji działań profilaktycznych

Chinese university students' beliefs about second language acquisition

2015

Xitian, Fu. 2015. Beliefs about Second Language Acquisition from Chinese University Students. Master's Thesis in Education. University of Jyväskylä. Department of Education. Beliefs about second language acquisition (SLA) have intrigued pioneer investigators for more than 30 years. However, until quite recently, most studies have been conduced in the Western school context. This study aims to investigate Chinese university students’ beliefs about second language acquisition (SLA) originating from a completely different social context. This study attempts to obtain new insights of English language learning as experienced by Chinese university students within a specific social cultural contex…
