Next Generation Sequencing: From Research Area to Clinical Practice
Translating the power of high-throughput sequencing technologies from research area into clinical medicine is one of the major goal for several researchers and health-care providers. One of the important advantages of these technologies is that they can be successfully used in a numerous range of clinical applications. The efficiency of sequencing, that can now be achieved, is leading impressive progress in the diagnostics of common and rare genetic disorders, inherited forms of cancer, prenatal testing or infectious diseases, to cite some examples. Despite several challenges and limitations still remain to overcome, the high-throughput sequencing technologies are leading to real and unprecedented benefits for the medical care of patients

Retorica, semantica, inferenzialismo
Il saggio una reinterpretazione del ruolo della retorica e della dialettica nel ragionamento giuridico. La tesi sostenuta è che i nessi argomentativi che collegano tra loro gli enunciati del ragionamento giuridico sono costitutivi del contenuto semantico di questi enunciati; tali nessi inoltre dipendono dall'interazione linguistica tra i parlanti all'interno delle dinamica processuali
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
