    Il Servizio Adozioni di fronte alla valutazione delle famiglie ricomposte

    No full text
    La ricerca qui presentata riguarda le famiglie ricomposte giunte in valutazione per l’adozione ex art 44 lett. b legge n. 184/1983 all’équipe Adozioni dell’ex Ulss 16 di Padova dal 2001 al 2015. Si tratta di 48 nuclei familiari. La metà circa formati da coppie miste. Con riferimento a queste ultime, il lavoro evidenzia come emerga una dimensione "tradizionale" della famiglia, a differenza di quanto avviene in quelle italiane, in cui prevale la relazione "affettiva", sia nella dimensione di coppia sia in quella genitoriale. L’analisi del campione rileva importanti differenze tra i due gruppi. Segnaliamo, tra quelle più significative, la diversa modalità di costituzione della coppia ricomposta ed il tempo di separazione dalla madre subito dai bambini nelle situazioni di migrazione rispetto ai figli delle donne italiane. Tutto ciò crea le basi per modalità di relazioni familiari profondamente diverse. Da qui la necessità di interrogarsi sulla capacità degli operatori di leggere queste differenze all’interno di nuove categorie mentali, dando rilevanza alle variabili culturali e riconoscendo anche il valore ed il funzionamento di questi modelli nella relazione genitori-figli

    Clinical Translation of TALENS: Treating SCID-X1 by Gene Editing in iPSCs

    No full text
    Mutations causing X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) reduce immune cell populations and function and may be amenable to targeted gene correction strategies. Now in Cell Stem Cell, Menon et al. (2015) correct SCID-X1-related blood differentiation defects by TALEN-mediated genome editing in patient-derived iPSCs, suggesting a possible strategy for autologous cell therapy of SCID-X1

    Novel Dialogue 2.3: Because I Couldn't Be a Dancer: Sigrid Nunez and Tara Menon (JP)

    No full text
    The brilliant New York writer Sigrid Nunez's most recent novel is What Are You Going Through; her previous one, The Friend, (2018) won the National Book Award. She speaks with Tara Menon, of the Harvard English department, and author of a terrific article about Sigrid Nunez in the Sewanee Review. The conversation ranges widely and then plunges into depths. Because life is defined by grief and mourning, so too are my novels, says Nunez. She thinks her upbringing with immigrant parents who felt adrift from their homeland and her own "failure" as a dancer (recounted in her 1995 debut novel, A Feather on the Breath of God ) are the ferment from which her vocation as a writer arose. The question of genre is tossed around: "fictional memoir" perhaps, which gets confused (insultingly, Tara thinks!) with auto-fiction. But Sigrid is fascinated by establishing a reality that is entirely made-up ("not a single friend angry!"), yet also documentary in nature. Perhaps the best tag for her work is "essay novel": that allows one to do what Javier Marias calls "literary thinking." And there's a wonderfully non-Pavlovian answer to the treat question: sometimes you can just have the whiskey

    A priori and a posteriori analysis of the hybrid two-level large-eddy simulation method for high Reynolds number complex flows

    No full text
    We present a priori and a posteriori analysis of the assumptions and predictions of the hybrid two-level large-eddy simulation (TLS-LES) method for high Reynolds number complex flows. The TLS-LES methodology is a multi-scale framework for simulation of turbulent flows in complex configurations at practically relevant Reynolds number. It additively combines the two-level simulation (TLS) model with a conventional large-eddy simulation (LES) approach by employing a static or dynamic blending function. In the present study, first we analyze the model assumptions employed by the TLS model to obtain the small-scale solution necessary for closure of the large-scale equations. Afterward, we analyze the large-scale and small-scale solutions to assess the predictive ability of the multi-scale framework for specific turbulence physics such as role of forward and backscatter of energy and presence of co- and counter-gradient diffusion. To perform these investigations, we consider cases with increasing degree of geometrical complexity, namely, flow in a periodic channel, flow past a bump placed on the lower surface of the channel and flow past a finite-span NACA0015 airfoil

    Il bene del filosofo e il limite della città. Sulla politica filosofica di Leo Strauss

    No full text
    The intention of this paper is to show how Leo Straussʼ mature writings respond to the twofold necessity of political philosophy: contributing, at the same time, to the good of the city and to the good of the philosophers. In the first place, it will try to prove this point by analyzing in detail the Introduction to On Tyranny (1948), which represents an essential step in order to understand the intention of the author. In the second place, it will tackle the problem of justice, that is, of natural right, by concentrating on the so called " tyrannical teaching ". This teaching is a way to present a truth which the city cannot find acceptable, that is, an unpleasant truth concerning the irresoluble problem of justice and legitimacy. In conclusion, it will point to the tension between philosophy, i.e., search for knowledge, and the city, i.e., the realm of opinion. For the philosopher, as such, has to " corrupt " the young in order to pursue his search for knowledge of the whole, or the nature of all things. Therefore, he weakens the city, since philosophizing implies unbelief in the gods of the city

    Equivariant elliptic cohomology and twisted equivariant k-theory

    No full text
    Equivariant elliptic cohomology and twisted equivariant K-theory are both related to the representations of loop groups. After making these relationships precise, we propose a map from twisted equivariant elliptic cohomology to twisted K-theory of the inertia stack using equivariant de Rham models. This proposal agrees with the Freed-Hopkins-Teleman q = 1 map from characters of representations of loop groups to distributions associated to twisted equivariant K-theory classes.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2021-08-01The student, Dileep Menon, accepted the attached license on 2019-05-24 at 15:54.The student, Dileep Menon, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2019-05-24 at 16:06.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2019-05-28 at 10:50.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #13991 on 2019-11-26 at 13:00:58Made available in DSpace on 2019-11-26T20:49:00Z (GMT).
