Dissemination/Communication Plan. Period concerning the plan: 01.01.2018-31.12.2020.
2018
The plan concerning different dissemination/communication activities during three years of the project implementation is given. Scientific results are proposed to be disseminated in well-recognized bi-annual international conferences, such as European Conference on Composite Materials (ECCM) and International Conference on Composite Materials (ICCM). Self-archiving of the main project results is planned within subject-based open-access repositories, such as ResearchGate and Zenodo. Two scientific publications in Q1-Q2 SCI journals and two popular scientific publications in popular scientific Latvian journals are foreseen. All data files obtained within the project are to be stored in centra…
Project into the Future. Introductory essay on the topic
2021
Investigating the Future is an established practice for the academy and the world of crafts and industry. From the Chicago Columbian Exhibition of 1893 to the two Worlds Fairs of New York City (1939 and 1965) and so on, the future has been foreseen as filled with technology and amazing architecture but not every vision of the future has described promising scenarios. The four visions of the future proposed by Norman Henchey (1978) conceptualized in classes – ‘possible’ (any future), ‘plausible’ (future that makes sense), ‘probable’ (highly likely to happen), ‘preferable’ (the best that could happen) – have been brilliantly described in the ‘Futures Cone’ reinterpreted by Joseph Voros (2003)…
LOGISTICS PROJECT PLANNING UNDER CONDITIONS OF RISK AND UNCERTAINTY
2017
The paper discusses highly important issues related to the practice of logistics project planning under conditions of certainty, risk, and uncertainty. This process requires the use of a variety of planning information (complete or incomplete, express or implied) as well as the generation of new knowledge. The decision-making process takes place in a deterministic or an nondeterministic situation; the former involves complete information (i.e., certainty) and the latter incomplete information (i.e., risk and uncertainty). Becoming acquainted with the discussed issues provides valuable practical knowledge that may be helpful in making important decisions when formulating concepts and models …
Zarządzanie wiedzą projektową w kontekście społecznej odpowiedzialności biznesu
2016
Project knowledge and relationships with stakeholders are treated as a po- tential source of project success, and thus such as a source of competitiveness. This means that there is a need for research into these issues, especially in the context of measuring a competitive advantage and potential and actual benefits of the acquisition of project knowledge and relationships with stakeholders in the context of corporate social responsibility.
Cómo y qué enseñar de la biodiversidad en la alfabetización científica
2010
The purpose of this article is to approach the didactic treatment of biodiversity conservation issues from the double perspective of scientific literacy and environmental education. We attempt to provide ideas on how articulating their respective theoretical speeches with practice in biological education; understanding the need to fit principles and goals that characterize them, with the processes of teaching and learning concepts, values, processes and techniques; significantly necessary to develop of citizenship, critical interpretation and based decision-making capacities, related to the political proposals and measures on biodiversity conservation.
Configuration of Strawberry Yield, Nutritional and Functional Traits in Response to LPE Application in a Two-Year Study
2023
Lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) is a promising natural lysophospholipid which can be employed as a growth regulator for horticultural purposes. The present research was accomplished to investigate the effects of LPE (0 or 10 ppm) on the yield and quality of “Savana” strawberry plants grown during two consecutive cultivation cycles (I (2020–2021); II (2021–2022)). Plants cultivated in year I and treated with LPE revealed the highest total yield (838.3 g plant−1), marketable yield (735.4 g plant−1) and average marketable fruit weight (39.8 g plant−1). Fruits from year II plants treated with LPE had the highest total phenolics concentration (491.4 m…
Cancer invasion ad metastasis: discovering new targets for diagnosis and therapeutics
2009
Cancer invasion and metastases are the hallmarks of malignant tumors and the cause of most cancer deaths. Molecular alterations that arise during cancer progression and that generate abnormal gene products, activated signal transduction pathways, and altered cancer cell-host stroma interactions can be considered targets of therapeutic drugs. Some of these drugs have already entered clinical trials, while others have shown promising results. In this review, we examine some of the successive steps of the metastatic process: cancer cell migration and invasion of the tumor microenvironment, angiogenesis and following extravasation focusing on the deranged signalling pathways underlying the mali…
Technical improvements for analysis of recalcitrant proteins by LC-MS : the mycorrhiza responsive membrane proteome as a case study
2012
Arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM) are widespread symbiotic associations between plant roots and AM fungi. Deep membrane alterations are the foremost morphological changes occurring in the host plant in response to AM symbiosis. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) is the workhorse method in AM proteomics. Membrane proteins are under-represented in 2-DE because of their hydrophobicity, low abundance, and precipitation at their isoelectric point, thereby few are the identified membrane proteins involved in sustaining the AM symbiosis. Membrane proteomics is still challenging due to 2-DE related shortcomings, however latest trends and advancements in mass spectrometry (MS)-based quantitative p…
Analysis of the Mobility of Heavy Metals in Sludge for the Sewage Treatment Plant in Daleszyce
2020
Osady ściekowe są produktem ubocznym procesów oczyszczania ścieków. Wykazują jednak wysokie właściwości nawo-zowe oraz glebotwórcze, jednak nie zawsze mogą być one wykorzystane w tym celu. Dwa główne kryteria ograniczające ich przyrodnicze wykorzystanie to zawartość metali ciężkich oraz jaj pasożytów. Osady ściekowe pobrane z oczyszczalni ścieków w Daleszycach zostały poddane analizie zawartości metali ciężkich. W tym celu wykonano analizę specjacyjną, pozwalającą podzielić całkowitą zawartość metali na cztery frakcje mobilności. Mobilność określa zdolność pierwiastka, lub któregoś z jego form, do przemieszczania się w środowisku. Badania wykonano, stosując czteroetapową procedurę BCR. Wyni…
SAFER : le temps de la rétrocession respectueux de la Constitution
2018
International audience; L’absence de sanction de l’obligation pour la SAFER de rétrocéder un bien préempté dans le délai de 5 ans ne porte pas une atteinte disproportionnée au droit de propriété, à la liberté contractuelle et à la liberté d'entreprendre protégés par les articles 2 et 4 de la Déclaration des droits de l’homme et du citoyen. Cons. Const. DC n° 2018-707, QPC, 25 mai 2018
