RIABITARE IL PATRIMONIO URBANO ED EDILIZIO DEI TERRITORI INTERNI: SPAZIO DIGITALE PER SERVIZI SANITARI EFFICIENTI
2020
La necessità del distanziamento fisico, dettata dall’epoca pandemica in corso, ricade inevitabilmente sulla vivibilità degli spazi urbani e di quelli abitativi. L’esigenza pressante di qualità della vita, nella fisicità e nelle relazioni umane, impone di riguardare con interesse a quei luoghi che ne sono depositari per sedimentazione storica. Una delle risposte è nel riabitare i centri minori dei territori interni, luoghi con bassa densità demografica e costruita, luoghi resilienti alle mutazioni urbane, luoghi salubri. Questi luoghi, di contro, sono affetti da marginalità e carenze di infrastrutture e servizi. Le tecnologie digitali si propongono sempre più come ausilio nel recupero del pa…
A Feasibility Study for the Transition to Electric Mobility in the Island of Favignana
2021
The energy transition and climate neutrality are a short time scenario as climate concerns are rising fast. Small islands are natural microgrids in which the energy transition is subjected to economic and regulatory constraints and highly challenged by technical issues. As a first step, the Mediterranean island of Favignana has been considered in this study, to assess how electric mobility could impact the power system. According to the plans from the local decision makers, the island is moving towards a full public electric mobility in the near term, also due to the participation in the BloRin project. For this reason, a feasibility study about the technical and environmental impact of ele…

Stakeholder salience for small businesses : a social proximity perspective
2017
This paper advances stakeholder salience theory from the viewpoint of small businesses. It is argued that the stakeholder salience process for small businesses is influenced by their local embeddedness, captured by the idea of social proximity, and characterised by multiple relationships that the owner-manager and stakeholders share beyond the business context. It is further stated that the ethics of care is a valuable ethical lens through which to understand social proximity in small businesses. The contribution of the study conceptualises how the perceived social proximity between local stakeholders and small business owner-managers influences managerial considerations of the legitimacy, …
Analysis of Exosomal Cargo Provides Accurate Clinical, Histologic and Mutational Information in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
2022
Simple Summary Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Clinical decision-making depends on the histological classification; however, tissue biopsy is frequently not technically feasible due to tumor location or limited tissue samples. Therefore, we propose to find clinical, molecular and histological biomarkers using a minimally invasive approach based on the analysis of the cargo of the blood extracellular vesicles. Exosomes are membranous vesicles present in several biological fluids, which carry biological information to distant tissues, regulating several tumor processes. This study aims to …
Broglie and Young, visionaries who shed light in the polar topology that grounds our reality: a hypothesis
2020
Una observación matemática que relaciona los patrones fractales y la operación de convolución en el contexto del procesamiento de imágenes digitales interrumpió una investigación que nos lleva a plantear la hipótesis de que el concepto de onda de materia (o dualidad onda-partícula) se encuentra en la dicotomía entre el par débil y un topología fuerte en el ámbito del marco de atractores singulares continuos en ninguna parte diferenciables y el concepto de fotón-solitón de Vigier. Tal inferencia parece ser más evidente en la interpretación de Broglie-Bohm de la mecánica cuántica en el cruce de características locales x globales. De esto se deduce también que la relación de los fenómenos natu…
Behind the scenes of artificial intelligence: a study of micro-work platforms in France
2019
Este artículo es una versión resumida del informe “Le Micro-travail en France. Derrière l’automatisation de nouvelles précarités au travail?» This article is a summarized version of the report "Le Micro-travail en France. Derrière l’automatisation de nouvelles précarités au travail?" .; International audience; Micro-work internet services allocate small, standardized tasks of data generation and annotation to crowds of providers. The outputs are mainly used to produce artificial intelligence solutions. It is an exemplary instance of the “platformization” of the economy, and of the transformations of labour that digital technologies bring about. To uncover the conditions under which micro-wo…
Primer estudio experimental sobre los efectos de la digestión en restos esqueléticos de murciélagos (Mammalia: Chiroptera)
2018
Taphonomic studies dealing with small mammals do not usually consider bats. Therefore, the degree to which bat bones are modi? ed by predation and other taphonomic agents are largely unknown. Here we present the results obtained from a set of experiments developed to approach this issue, focusing initially on the e?ect of digestion. For this purpose several bat bones and teeth were exposed to HCl and to two di?erent proteolithic enzymes. The experiments showed that bat bones are altered by acidic and enzymatic attack in a similar way as the bones of other small mammals. However, some patterns were observed in the teeth that had not been previously described in other groups. Thus, both the i…
