What is new in new materialism for a newcomer?
2018
AbstractHaving recently emerged as an intellectual project, new materialism (NM) is extending to different fields, including sport, exercise and health studies. However, it is still unclear why and how NM is new, which can jeopardise its potential impact in academia and society. The aim of this paper is to discuss the newness of NM and to explore how it plays out in relation to different issues, such as knowledge translation and partisan positions. At the same time, NM is used as a way of understanding my own positionality as a newcomer who is becoming an academic within a field having manifold intellectual debates while being shaped by a neoliberal rationality. Reasons as to why NM has to …
Process specification and verification
1996
Graph grammars provide a very convenient specification tool for distributed systems of processes. This paper addresses the problem how properties of such specifications can be proven. It shows a connection between algebraic graph rewrite rules and temporal (trace) logic via the graph expressions of [2]. Statements concerning the global behavior can be checked by local reasoning.
Sequence evolution, processing, and posttranslational modification of zonadhesin D domains in primates, as inferred from cDNA data
2005
Zonadhesin is a mammalian transmembrane sperm ligand. Precursor zonadhesin essentially consists of MAM (meprin/A5 antigen/mu receptor tyrosine phosphatase) domains, a mucin-like repeat, and D domains (homologous to von Willebrand D). Recent immunovisualization and binding assays indicate that zonadhesin D domains 1–3 bind postacrosomally to the zona pellucida. This feature has attracted considerable interest in the evolution of zonadhesin and its possible biological and biomedical implications. Previous molecular evolutionary analyses, however, were confined to cDNA sequences of only few distantly related species. Moreover, except for rabbit and pig, little is known about zonadhesin’s proce…
Does the mastery of center-embedded linguistic structures distinguish humans from nonhuman primates?
2005
In a recentScience article, Fitch and Hauser (2004; hereafter, F&H) claimed to have demonstrated that cotton-top tamarins fail to learn an artificial language produced by a phrase structure grammar (Chomsky, 1957) generating center-embedded sentences, whereas adult humans easily learn such a language. We report an experiment replicating the results of F&H in humans but also showing that subjects learned the language without exploiting in any way the center-embedded structure. When the procedure was modified to make the processing of this structure mandatory, the subjects no longer showed evidence of learning. We propose a simple interpretation for the difference in performance observed in F…
Structural Knowledge Extraction from Mobility Data
2016
Knowledge extraction has traditionally represented one of the most interesting challenges in AI; in recent years, however, the availability of large collections of data has increased the awareness that “measuring” does not seamlessly translate into “understanding”, and that more data does not entail more knowledge. We propose here a formulation of knowledge extraction in terms of Grammatical Inference (GI), an inductive process able to select the best grammar consistent with the samples. The aim is to let models emerge from data themselves, while inference is turned into a search problem in the space of consistent grammars, induced by samples, given proper generalization operators. We will …
«Lo ample si de les sagrades lletres» : criteris de traducció de la bíblia en els sermons del barroc valencià
2011
El present article analitza els mètodes de traducció bíblica seguits en la predicació a València durant el segle XVII, període en què destaca la prohibició de traslladar la Bíblia al pla a partir de la publicació de l'Índice inquisitorial de Valdés. Biblical translation criteria in Valencian Baroque sermons This article analyses the Biblical translation methods used for preaching purposes in Valencia during the 17th century, a period characterised by the ban on translations of the Bible into the vernacular following the publication of Valdés's Index.

Dual film-like organelles enable spatial separation of orthogonal eukaryotic translation
2021
Summary Engineering new functionality into living eukaryotic systems by enzyme evolution or de novo protein design is a formidable challenge. Cells do not rely exclusively on DNA-based evolution to generate new functionality but often utilize membrane encapsulation or formation of membraneless organelles to separate distinct molecular processes that execute complex operations. Applying this principle and the concept of two-dimensional phase separation, we develop film-like synthetic organelles that support protein translation on the surfaces of various cellular membranes. These sub-resolution synthetic films provide a path to make functionally distinct enzymes within the same cell. We use t…

La traducción literaria y la brecha de paralaje: reflexiones a partir de un cuestionario piloto
2010
La investigación social se ha movido históricamente entre oposiciones conceptuales que el construccionismo sociológico intenta superar. Mediante el análisis de las respuestas y los problemas planteados por un cuestionario piloto dirigido a traductores de literatura, se tratan una serie de planteamientos aplicables a la investigación sociológica de la traducción literaria. Se hace especial hincapié en la indefinición como grupo de los traductores literarios y se plantea la utilidad del concepto “brecha de paralaje” (Slavoj Žižek) como método de análisis interdisciplinar y dialéctico. Historically, social research has alternated between conceptual opposites that social constructionism tries t…
