Recommendations from the iSBTc-SITC/FDA/NCI Workshop on Immunotherapy Biomarkers
2011
Abstract Purpose: To facilitate development of innovative immunotherapy approaches, especially for treatment concepts exploiting the potential benefits of personalized therapy, there is a need to develop and validate tools to identify patients who can benefit from immunotherapy. Despite substantial effort, we do not yet know which parameters of antitumor immunity to measure and which assays are optimal for those measurements. Experimental Design: The iSBTc-SITC (International Society for Biological Therapy of Cancer-Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer), FDA (Food and Drug Administration), and NCI (National Cancer Institute) partnered to address these issues for immunotherapy of cancer. Here…
Historia Domu Rekolekcyjnego Konferencji Episkopatu Polski "Księżówka" w Zakopanem w latach 1945-1990

A Parallel Approach to HRTF Approximation and Interpolation Based on a Parametric Filter Model
2017
[EN] Spatial audio-rendering techniques using head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) are currently used in many different contexts such as immersive teleconferencing systems, gaming, or 3-D audio reproduction. Since all these applications usually involve real-time constraints, efficient processing structures for HRTF modeling and interpolation are necessary for providing real-time binaural audio solutions. This letter presents a parametric parallel model that allows us to perform HRTF filtering and interpolation efficiently from an input HRTF dataset. The resulting model, which is an adaptation from a recently proposed modeling technique, not only reduces the size of HRTF datasets signific…

Beyond Scientific Objectivity : Knowing about Right and Wrong
2007
Our way of seeing things depends upon the state of our minds. We can look at the world through the lenses of love, hate or indifference. What remains largely unquestioned about science is its essence. Scientific objectivity is not free from subjectivity. I argue that objective, scientific knowledge is a partial knowledge based on indifference, the state of mind that constitutes the scientific attitude. Hate does not produce knowledge at all, but reinforces our prejudices. However, love gives the possibility of knowing someone or something fully, and not only as an object. Once we accept that our experiences, thoughts, and feelings are not incommunicable, we can arrive at inter-subjective an…
The diagnosis and management of gastric cancer: Expert discussion and recommendations from the 12th ESMO/World Congress on Gastrointestinal Cancer, B…
2011
Well-recognized experts in the field of gastric cancer discussed during the 12th European Society Medical Oncology (ESMO)/World Congress Gastrointestinal Cancer (WCGIC) in Barcelona many important and controversial topics on the diagnosis and management of patients with gastric cancer. This article summarizes the recommendations and expert opinion on gastric cancer. It discusses and reflects on the regional differences in the incidence and care of gastric cancer, the definition of gastro-esophageal junction and its implication for treatment strategies and presents the latest recommendations in the staging and treatment of primary and metastatic gastric cancer. Recognition is given to the ne…
Sharing and constructing perspectives in web-based conferencing
2006
Abstract This study investigates the quality and nature of virtual interaction in a higher education context. The study aims to find out variables that mediate virtual interaction, particularly the emerging processes of sharing and constructing perspectives in web-based conferencing. The purpose of this paper is to report the results on different levels of web-based discussions with parallel findings on the amount of sharing perspectives. The findings of two empirical studies are compared, and thereby also the impact of the pedagogical model designed between these two studies is evaluated. Possible explanations for why some discussions reach higher levels and include more perspective sharin…
Architettura cultuale nel Mediterraneo
2015
Il libro è il risultato di un lavoro di ricerca affrontato presso il Dipartimento di Architettura dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo e sviluppato sulla scia della lunga esperienza didattica e di ricerca condotta sotto la guida del prof. Pasquale Culotta. Nella ricerca, il tema dell’architettura liturgica si confronta con le influenze e le contaminazioni riscontrabili fra le architetture cultuali dell’area del Mediterraneo. Il volume si articola in tre parti: la prima parte ripercorre, attraverso esempi progettuali significativi, alcune tra le principali questioni che in questi anni post-conciliari sono emerse rispetto alla costruzione di nuove chiese o all’adeguamento liturgico di quell…
Cultural and Social Anthropology Studies in Latvia and Eastern Europe: Discussing Practices and Methods
2020
In the last academic year, two international scientific conferences were held in Riga, focusing on the anthropological dimension in the field of social sciences. Baltic International Academy (Riga, Latvia) in cooperation with the Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Studies with Ethnographic Museum of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (Sofia, Bulgaria), the Ural Federal University (Ekaterinburg, Russian Federation), the University of Oradea (Oradea, Romania) and the International Festival of Visual Anthropology Mediating Camera (Moscow, Russian Federation) organised an international scientific conference Social and Political Anthropology: Modern Scientific Approaches to Research (Riga, 18–19…
