Dr. Goebel (1899-1993) a biochemist, dedicated his time and energy to the study of the body\u27s chemical defense against infection by microorganisms. He joined the Rockefeller Institute as a research assistant, 1924-1927, associate, 1927-1934, associate member, 1934-1944, member, 1944-1957, and professor, 1957-1970. He became professor emeritus of The Rockefeller University in 1970.
Professor Goebel received the Avery-Landsteiner Prize of the European Society of Immunologists, in 1973 and an honorary doctor of science degrees from Middleburry College, Vermont, in 1959 and the Rockefeller University, in 1978.

The Added Value of EEG-fMRI in Imaging Neuroscience
No full textThe main objective of functional neuroimaging is to detect and characterize in space and time neurophysiologically relevant changes of brain states. Functional MRI (fMRI) and electro-encephalography (EEG) assume that a given brain state can be decoded from the precise anatomical localization and the detailed temporal evolution of neuro-electrical brain signals, respectively. Mapping brain states with fMRI at a spatial resolution in the millimeter range allows imaging neuroscientists to test diverse neurophysiological and neuropathological hypotheses in the normal and clinical populations. Simultaneously recorded EEG offers the possibility to greatly enrich topological results by tracking subjects’ state-representative patterns over time at the millisecond temporal scale. The main purpose of this chapter is to illustrate how the imaging neuroscientist can integrate detailed temporal information provided by simultaneously recorded EEG signals into fMRI spatio-temporal modeling. We discuss the problem of optimizing a common source space for fMRI and EEG signal projection through the use of anatomical and functional MRI models and EEG distributed inverse models, thereby gathering a fully integrated framework for the comparative analysis of simultaneously acquired EEG-fMRI data sets

Incursions of exotic pests into European rice areas - detection and management. [4127]
No full textThe total area under rice cultivation in the EU is about 450,000 ha and the main producers are Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece and France. Due to the position of Europe in northern latitudes and its associated temperate climate, endemic local insect pests cause few problems to European rice production. In contrast, Invasive alien species (IAS) pose a significant threat to biodiversity in the EU, as they often have to be controlled with chemicals. Methods: The key IAS affecting rice in the EU, the damage they cause and the control measures that are required for their management are reviewed. The potential impact of these measures on aquatic biodiversity is examined, and alternative control strategies are discussed. Results/Conclusion: Key IAS affecting EU rice are Chilo suppressalis which is well established in Spain, Portugal and France, and Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus which was introduced to Italy in 2004 and France in 2015. Recently the polyphagous Halyomorpha halys was detected in rice areas in France (2012) and Italy (2014), but its role in rice paddies has yet to be evaluated. Rice crop management is focused on maximizing yield, however rice paddies also have conservation value, acting as surrogates for natural wetlands. Agricultural practices often include chemical applications aimed at controlling pest species, with adverse side effects on non-target aquatic invertebrates. There are potential alternatives to this approach which combine biological and agroecological control methods to optimize pest control, but with a reduced impact on the environment
Variations on the Author
No full text“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
On classes defining a homological dimension
No full textA class F of objects of an abelian category A is said to define a homological dimension if
for any object in A the length of any F-resolution is uniquely determined. In the present paper we
investigate classes satisfying this property
