Emerging technologies in solid drug delivery: An interview with Nadia Passerini
Nadia Passerini is interviewed by Hannah Makin, Commission Editor. Nadia Passerini is Associate Professor of Pharmaceutical Technology at the University of Bologna (Bologna, Italy). She obtained the degree in Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Technology at the University of Bologna in 1992 and the PhD in Pharmaceutical Science in 1997. Her research focuses on the study of drug delivery systems, developing new technologies and new apparatus for the production of solid dosage forms (microparticles, granules and tablets), which can optimize the bioavailability of drugs according to the specific needs of the therapy. Furthermore, she is interested in the solid-state characterization of the produced delivery systems in order to correlate their physicochemical properties to the in vitro release of the drugs. Currently, her research focuses in particular on the production and characterization of microparticles produced by the spray congealing technology. She is author of over 50 international peer-reviewed publications and over 50 contributions (poster and oral presentations) to national and international conferences
Selected Songs of Nadia Boulanger: Formal Analysis and Adaptation for Brass Chamber Music
Worth can be a difficult thing to understand and define, even under the best of circumstances. Nadia Boulanger is known to have told her teacher, Gabriel Fauré, that “if there is one thing of which I am certain, it is that my music is worthless.” As a teacher, Boulanger empowered her students to listen for the internal logic present in the pieces of art that she considered valuable. This document will apply Nadia Boulanger’s teachings to her compositions to demonstrate that her music does have worth. To that end, these analyses will compile data to discern the internal logic in her pieces.
As a performer, Nadia Boulanger coupled her analytical beliefs to her performance practice; her concerts were shaped by and carefully crafted to present her analyses. Her formal classes included an informal ticket to hear her commentaries in action. Therefore, in addition to analytical validation, the author intends to demonstrate the value of Nadia Boulanger’s music through the arrangement and performance of her compositions as brass chamber music. as brass chamber music

El espacio público en las playas
En la actualidad la ciudad atraviesa una etapa de conflictividad en tomo a las posibilidades de disfrute de su atractivo turístico más valioso, la playa. A lo largo del tiempo, a causa de diversos factores, entre ellos la erosión del frente costero y la expansión de las iniciativas de explotación económica, se ha observado que el espacio publico se ha reducido. En este contexto, es posible advertir que tanto turistas como residentes que no cuentan con los recursos necesarios para incurrir en los costos que implica el alquiler de unidades de sombra o que por razones personales, no desean contratar ese tipo de servicios, ven restringidas sus posibilidades de acceso, uso y goce.Fil: Cruz, Gonzalo.

Estudo quase-experimental sobre argumentação em situações de dilema em diferentes condições de interação
Resumo: Este trabalho aborda a argumentação entendida como o produto do confronto de pontos de vista em um contexto de interação sociocognitiva. Propõe-se um estudo quase-experimental no qual sujeitos em duplas discutiram sobre seus argumentos com respeito a uma situação de dilema de acordo com duas modalidades: livre (sem pautas de interação) ou assistida (pelo pesquisador). Na modalidade assistida, a intervenção do pesquisador teve como objetivo reforçar a interação para melhorar a qualidade argumentativa. Foram avaliadas tanto as intervenções dos sujeitos durante as interações quanto os escritos individuais realizados após a interação. Os resultados mostram avanços nas duplas assistidas no que diz respeito às três dimensões avaliadas: estilo argumentativo, competência argumentativa e dialogicidade.Abstract: This paper approaches argumentation understood as the product of the confrontation of points of view in a context of sociocognitive interaction. We propose a quasi-experimental study in which subjects in dyads discussed their arguments regarding a dilemmatic situation according to two modalities: free (without patterns of interaction) or assisted (by the researcher). In the assisted modality, the intervention of th improve the argumentative quality. Both the recordings of the interactions and the writings of the subjects performed after the interaction were evaluated. The results show advances in assisted dyads in term argumentative style, argumentative competence and dialogic interaction.Fil: Peralta, Nadia Soledad. Universidad Nacional de Rosario.

Navigating dating and romantic relationships as an adult with Tourette Syndrome: an exploratory study
Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder defined by recurrent and intrusive involuntary tics that begin in childhood. Individuals with TS often face significant psycho-social challenges, given the public nature of their tics and the fact that their symptoms are often misunderstood by others. This study explores how adults with TS navigate dating and romantic relationships, including the challenges they face and the strengths they have developed in this process. Five adult women with TS were interviewed using a semi-structured interview about their psycho-social experiences of living with TS and how the disorder has affected their dating experiences. The interviews were qualitatively analyzed as individual case studies and also compared and contrasted on the basis of five major research questions: 1) How do adults with TS navigate dating and romantic relationships? 2) What challenges and limitations do adults with TS face in dating and pursuing romantic relationships? 3) How do adults with TS go about explaining their symptoms to romantic partners? 4) How do the socio-emotional experiences of adults with TS with family and peers influence their dating experiences? 5) What factors are helpful for adults with TS in navigating dating and romantic relationships? Findings from the study indicate several themes among the subjects’ experiences: Choosing whether, why, when, how and what to disclose to partners; challenges of explaining tics and TS to others; reasons for concealing tics; impact of making disclosures to romantic partners; family and peers’ responses as a model for how romantic partners may respond; family and peers’ responses as a motivation for getting different responses from romantic partners; and considering genetics and children. Implications for individuals with TS and their parents are discussed, and recommendations for mental health professionals working with such individuals are made.Psy.
