Conversa O paso de Benito Pérez Galdós por Tui con Yolanda Arencibia
No full textNo centenario do falecemento de Benito Pérez Galdós (As Palmas de Gran Canaria 1843 - Madrid 1920) lembramos a súa viaxe de Portugal a Galicia, publicada en "La Prensa" de Bos Aires.
Descubrirémola coa maior especialista na vida e obra do escritor canario, Yolanda Arencibia, autora de “Galdós. Una biografía” (Tusquets 2020). Directora da Cátedra Pérez Galdós da Universidade de Las Palmas, Arencibia foi galardoada recentemente co Premio Comillas de Historia, Biografía e Memorias. https://youtu.be/4AyFEAZHS_
Learning from transgenics: Advanced gene editing technologies should also bridge the gap with traditional genetic selection
No full textWe highlight the importance of the mixed genetic approaches (classical and currents) to improve the social perception related to the GMOs acceptance. We pointed out that CRISPR/Cas9 events could carry DNA variability/rearrangements related to somaclonal variations or epigenetic changes that are independent from the editing per se. The transformation of single cells, followed by plant regeneration, is used to generate modified plants, transgenic or genome editing (CRISPR/Cas9). The incidence of undesirable somaclonal variations and/or epigenetic changes that might have occurred during in vitro multiplication and regeneration processes, must be carefully analyzed in replicates in field trials. One remarkable challenge is related to the time lapse that selects the modified elite genotypes, because these strategies may spend a variable amount of time before the results are commercialized, where in all the cases it should be take into account the genotype × environment interactions. Furthermore, this combination of techniques can create an encouraging bridge between the public opinion and the community of geneticists who are concerned with plant genetic improvement. In this context, either transgenesis or genomic editing strategies become complementary modern tools to facing the challenges of plant genetic improvement. Their applications will depend on case-by-case analysis, and when possible will necessary associate them to the schemes and bases of classic plant genetic improvement.

Metodo di bioreattore ad immersione temporanea e relativo prodotto - ITRE2012A000080
No full textUn metodo di bioreattore ad immersione temporanea ed un prodotto ottenuto con tale metodo, il metodo comprendendo le fasi di: a. collocare una o più piante in grado di eseguire la fotosintesi all'interno di un contenitore; b. introdurre nel contenitore un terreno liquido, in modo da immergere le piante e lasciarle in immersione per un lasso di tempo in modo da moltiplicare le piante e produrre biomassa vegetale; c. rimuovere il terreno liquido dal contenitore e lasciare le piante in una atmosfera di aria con aggiunta di anidride carbonica per un altro lasso di tempo; d. ripetere le fasi b. e c. in modo alternato per un determinato periodo di tempo complessivo, sottoponendo le piante ad una radiazione fotosinteticamente attiva

Evocación del magisterio de Jesús Arencibia a partir de una antigua entrevista
No full textTras más de 25 años de docencia en la Escuela de Magisterio de Las Palmas
de Gran Canaria, el pintor Jesús González Arencibia (Tamaraceíte, 1911-
1993). «Jesús Arencibia» en su nombre artístico, se jubiló y recibió el merecido homenaje de sus compañeros, con una publicación titulada Homenaje a Jesús
Arencibia, aparecida en 1982, año en el que también fue condecorado con la
Encomienda de la Orden de Alfonso X El Sabio'. Todo ello demuestra que el
artista dejó tma profunda huella entre los profesores con los que convivió
The Role and Modelling of Presynaptic Inhibition in the Visual Pathway: Applications in Image Processing
No full textPresynaptic Inhibition (PI) basically consists of the strong suppression of a neuron’s response before the stimulus reaches the synaptic terminals mediated by a second, inhibitory, neuron. It has a long lasting effect, greatly potentiated by the action of anaesthetics, that has been observed in motorneurons and in several other places of nervous systems, mainly in sensory processing. In this paper we will focus on several different ways of modelling the effect of PI in the visual pathway as well as the different artificial counterparts derived from such modelling, mainly in two directions: the possibility of computing invariant representations against general changes in illumination of the input image impinging the retina (which is equivalent to a low-level non linear information processing filter) and the role of PI as selector of sets of stimulae that have to be derived to higher brain areas, which, in turn, is equivalent to a “higher-level filter” of information, in the sense of “filtering” the possible semantic content of the information that is allowed to reach later stages of processing.454
A General Purpouse Control System
No full textIndustrial control applications are developed as ad hoc solutions. These solutions require specific programming and installation, and very often it takes large economic investments. We have developed a system that makes a special effort trying to offer versatility and a solution to a widespread of industrial installations. Our system understands an industrial plant as a compound of sensors, actuators and processes. The user will define its own processes, sensors and actuators. It will also be in his hand the design of the plants visualization diagram. In order to achieve this generalness it is of essence to offer a user interface as friendly as possible. Via a very intuitive user interface the implemented functionalities are far more powerful because the user understand them and makes use of them.11210
