Interactions between the sexual identity of the nervous system and the social environment mediate lifespan in Drosophila melanogaster
2018
Sex differences in lifespan are ubiquitous, but the underlying causal factors remain poorly understood. Inter- and intrasexual social interactions are well known to influence lifespan in many taxa, but it has proved challenging to separate the role of sex-specific behaviours from wider physiological differences between the sexes. To address this problem, we genetically manipulated the sexual identity of the nervous system—and hence sexual behaviour—in Drosophila melanogaster, and measured lifespan under varying social conditions. Consistent with previous studies, masculinization of the nervous system in females induced male-specific courtship behaviour and aggression, while nervous system f…
Proactive avoidance behaviour and pace-of-life syndrome in Atlantic salmon
2019
Individuals in a fish population differ in key life-history traits such as growth rate and body size. This raises the question of whether such traits cluster along a fast-slow growth continuum according to a pace-of-life syndrome (POLS). Fish species like salmonids may develop a bimodal size distribution, providing an opportunity to study the relationships between individual growth and behavioural responsiveness. Here we test whether proactive characteristics (bold behaviour coupled with low post-stress cortisol production) are related to fast growth and developmental rate in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar . Boldness was tested in a highly controlled two-tank hypoxia test were oxygen levels …
Uskallusta ja uusia pedagogisia avauksia: Helsingin Suomalaisen Yhteiskoulun 125-vuotisjuhlateos
2012
Arvioitu teos: Alanko, Anja-Liisa; Hietanen, Irmeli; Niiranen, Jukka; Uusi-Hallila, Tuula (toim.): Rohkea koulu: SYK Nervanderinkadulta Isonnevantielle. Helsinki: Suomalaisen Kirjallisuuden Seura, 2011. Suomen vanhimman suomenkielisen yhteiskoulun, Helsingin Suomalaisen Yhteiskoulun 125-vuotisjuhlateos sisältää paitsi historiikin koulun tähänastisista vaiheista, myös oppilas- ja opettajamatrikkelin. Kirja johdattaa lukijan useiden eri artikkelien myötä koulun arkeen, jota ovat värittäneet monet pedagogiset kokeilut. Kirjoittajat ovat koulun opettajia ja entisiä oppilaita. Tarkastelun pääpaino sijoittuu viime sotien jälkeisiin vuosikymmeniin. Rohkea koulu kuvaa havainnollisesti sitä, miten S…

Introduction to Gestural Similarity in Music. An Application of Category Theory to the Orchestra
2019
Mathematics, and more generally computational sciences, intervene in several aspects of music. Mathematics describes the acoustics of the sounds giving formal tools to physics, and the matter of music itself in terms of compositional structures and strategies. Mathematics can also be applied to the entire making of music, from the score to the performance, connecting compositional structures to acoustical reality of sounds. Moreover, the precise concept of gesture has a decisive role in understanding musical performance. In this paper, we apply some concepts of category theory to compare gestures of orchestral musicians, and to investigate the relationship between orchestra and conductor, a…
