    Deciphering the molecular architecture of membrane contact sites by cryo-electron tomography

    No full text
    At membrane contact sites (MCS) two cellular membranes form tight appositions that play critical roles in fundamental phenomena such as lipid metabolism or Ca2+ homeostasis. The interest for these structures has surged in recent years, bringing about the characterization of a plethora of MCS-resident molecules. How those molecules are structurally organized at MCS remains enigmatic, limiting our understanding of MCS function. Whereas such molecular detail is obscured by conventional electron microscopy sample preparation, cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) allows high resolution imaging of cellular landscapes in close-to-native conditions. Here we briefly review the fundamentals of cryo-ET and how recent developments in this technique are beginning to unveil the molecular architecture of MCS. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Membrane Contact Sites edited by Christian Ungermann and Benoit Kornmann

    Treballs Finals del Màster Oficial de Comptabilitat i Fiscalitat, Facultat d'Economia i Empresa, Universitat de Barcelona, Curs: 2016-2017, Tutor: Javier Collado MuñozEl objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la normativa y metodología que regulan la determinación del valor en aduana, o base imponible, de las de las mercancías introducidas en el territorio aduanero de la Unión Europea. Se detallará de forma extensa el método principal que se utiliza para obtener dicho valor en aduana, el método de transacción, y se mencionarán y explicarán, de forma más breve, el resto de métodos secundarios de valoración. De la misma forma, se explicarán varios conceptos relacionados, como la documentación involucrada en la declaración en aduana, los Incoterms o la importante figura del representante aduanero. Finalmente, se estudiará una transacción real, a la que se adicionarán supuestos hipotéticos de mayor complejidad, y así poder poner en práctica el contenido del presente trabajo. Para su realización, se analizará la normativa europea vigente que regula el funcionamiento aduanero y se pretende, de este modo, realizar una pequeña introducción al mundo de la tributación aduanera

    Promuovere una nuova umanizzazione: la decolonizzazione del pensiero e la sfida dell’ecologia transdisciplinare

    No full text
    Il contributo offre una sintetica riflessione su quello che si considera essere un tema centrale per pensare la contemporaneità e l’esercizio del biopotere nella pratica universitaria: la costruzione della conoscenza e la violenza politica-epistemica a questa collegata. Attraverso un dibattito teorico e di ricerca che intercetta prospettive, processi e pratiche di decolonialità diverse, gli Autori riflettono su come la produzione della conoscenza sia un processo complesso e multidimensionale. Come risultato, si conclude sulla necessità di adottare, a partire dalle università, un approccio transdisciplinare per collegare le discipline e offrire una nuova prospettiva sulla natura e sulla realtà capace di far fronte alle innumerevoli sfide della contemporaneità

    Pensamiento complejo para mejorar el perfil profesional docente en Colombia: un estudio piloto de investigación transdisciplinar dentro de una red interuniversitaria

    No full text
    El objetivo de esta investigación es mejorar el perfil profesional de los docentes desde un pensamiento complejo, con el fin de fortalecer los procesos de formación ciudadana en los colegios públicos de Tunjuelito (Bogotá, Colombia). La metodología empleada es cuantitativa, de carácter descriptivo, analítico, interpretativo y no experimental. Para la recogida de información, se han empleado métodos y estrategias didácticas fundamentadas en la Educación para la Ciudadanía Mundial (ECM) de la UNESCO y el pensamiento complejo de Morin. El trabajo reflexiona teóricamente sobre el nivel de formación de los docentes y su incidencia en la mejora del aprendizaje dialógico, crítico, autónomo y colectivo de los estudiantes. Como resultado de la investigación, se identificó que los docentes de estos colegios quieren continuar desarrollando procesos educativos que mejoren la formación ciudadana de sus estudiantes para lograr: 1) posibilitar los procesos de participación democrática, 2) enseñar la condición humana que les permita reconocerse como parte de una civilización planetaria, 3) asumir responsabilidades frente a las necesidades locales y globales de sus entornos socio-ambientales. Para concluir, se postula la necesidad de continuar trabajando la formación ciudadana en los diferentes contextos sociales en los que se ubican las universidades asociadas a la RED latinoamericana interuniversitaria, desde una mirada filosófica educativa compleja y transdisciplinar que responda a los retos socio-ambientales del siglo XXI

    Designing a Transdisciplinary Curriculum: educational reflections within the Inter-university Network “Red Latinoamericana para el cambio social y el aprendizaje emancipatorio”

    No full text
    The crisis that Basarab Nicolescu pointed out in his Manifesto of Transdisciplinarity (1996) highlights the need to reorganize the educational system of knowledge, starting from universities as places of support and dissemination of forms of research useful for promoting change actions in this day and age – during the era of the Covid-19 pandemic. In fact, being closely associated with educational issues since its inception, transdisciplinarity can contribute to the development of a problematizing spirit and, therefore, help the progress of knowledge, thus allowing the creation of unexpectedly creative solutions, new possibilities, and new otherwise inaccessible horizons in fragmented and reductive visions of reality. The contribution, developed inside the "Red Latinoamericana para el cambio social y el aprendizaje emancipatorio" following the solicitations born during the 3d World Congress of Transdisciplinarity (virtual mode), reflects on the question of responding adequately to the new educational challenges currently taking place on a global level, investigating the relationship between transdisciplinarity and the innovation of university teaching

    Biomimicry: a Necessary Eco-Ethical Dimension for a Future Human Sustainability

    No full text
    This article reflects on the concept of “global citizenship” from a transdisciplinary methodology and a biomimetic approach. A sustainable human image appears with this epistemological symbiosis, that constitutes the DNA of a genuine tool of civilizational transformation. On the one hand, the transdisciplinary methodology is opened to the multi-referential conception of the three pillars proposed by Basarab Nicolescu (2008): levels of reality, logic of the included middle, and complexity. On the other hand, the concept of biomimicry approached by Janine M. Benyus (2012) identifies nine operating principles of life in order to mimic nature in the reformulation of new sustainable human production systems with the biosphere. The aim of this study is to identify international agreements on environmental and sustainable development, to elaborate some contribution in the post-2015 eco-political-educational strategic framework led by the United Nations with the Sustainable Development Goals. With the purpose of strengthening ties between education and sustainability through symbiotic bridges between nature and culture, the work identifies the vital axises that constitute the interdependence of ecosystems to make a biomimetic application in the social, political, and educational structures of human systems. Then, this paper is an innovational research that seeks to integrate the eco-ethics as a practice in the “Global Citizenship Education” proposed for UNESCO for next decade 2015-2025
