    Introducing “La fabrique du droit”. A Conversation with Bruno Latour

    No full text
    Bruno Latour talks with Paolo Landri about his book on the Conseil d'Etat (La Fabrique du droit). The conversation was held in 2006 at the time of the Italian translation of the book and illustrates the research project and the difficulties the author had in the field. At the same time, it clarifies the trajectories of Bruno Latour's work and theoretical framework of his program of study with respect to sociology, anthropology, and philosophy of law. The conversation helps to understand the open-ended character of Bruno Latour's research and reflection including STS as well as sociological, anthropological and philosophical themes

Para cumplir con este objetivo se desarrollaron estudios a campo y de laboratorio. A campo se realizaron monitoreos de las poblaciones de P. xylostella (PDD) en cultivos comerciales de B. oleracea durante tres años. En laboratorio se realizó el seguimiento de inmaduros traídos del campo hasta obtener el adulto de la plaga o su parasitoide La descendencia proveniente de estos adultos fue alimentada utilizando hojas de cinco variedades de brasicáceas y mantenida en condiciones constantes de temperatura (25º C) y fotoperiodo de 16:8 (L:O). Posteriormente se realizó la evaluación de la preferencia de oviposición y sobrevivencia de P. xylostella en las cinco variedades de B. oleracea. La incidencia de la PDD se observó desde el inicio del cultivo, con un pico de densidad coincidente con el estado vegetativo del huésped. El complejo parasítico estuvo integrado por cinco especies de parasitoides, destacándose Siphona sp., Diadegma leontiniae y Apanteles piceotrichosus. Con respecto a la preferencia de oviposición, se registraron más huevos en el repollo blanco que en otras brasicáceas. Finalmente, los estados inmaduros presentaron mayor porcentaje de supervivencia en la coliflor. En la RAC, las poblaciones de P. xylostella y la de sus parasitoides se comportan de forma local e independiente en cada uno de los lotes. Diadegma leontiniae se presenta como un parasitoide local con un gran potencial para ser tomado en cuenta en programas de control biológico de conservación. Las hembras de P. xylostella prefieren oviponer en un determinado huésped independientemente de la sobrevivencia de su descendencia. El monitoreo continuo y el seguimiento de poblaciones de este tipo de plagas son necesarios para el posterior desarrollo de estrategias de Manejo Integrado de Plagas.The objective of this doctoral thesis was to analyze the variation in abundance, oviposition preference, survival and composition of the parasitic complex of Plutella xylostella in different varieties of Brassica oleracea in the Cordoba Food Region (CFR), formerly known as the Cordoba Green Belt (GB). To meet this objective, field and laboratory studies were carried out. In the field, P. xylostella (DBM) populations were monitored in commercial B. oleracea crops for three years. In the laboratory, immatures were observed until the adult pest or its parasitoid was obtained. The offspring of these adults were fed with leaves of five brassica varieties and maintained at a constant temperature (25°C) and photoperiod of 16:8 (L:O). Subsequently, evaluation of oviposition preference and survival of P. xylostella on the five varieties of B. oleracea was carried out. DBM incidence was observed from the beginning of the crop, with a peak density coinciding with the vegetative stage of the host. The parasitic complex was composed of five parasitoid species, including Siphona sp., Diadegma leontiniae and Apanteles piceotrichosus. Concerning oviposition preference, more eggs were recorded on white cabbage than on other brassicas. Finally, the immature stages showed a higher survival rate on cauliflower. In the RAC, the populations of P. xylostella and its parasitoids behaved locally and independently in each of the plots. Diadegma leontiniae is presented as a local parasitoid with a great potential to be considered in conservation biological control programs. P. xylostella females prefer to oviposit on a given host rather than their offspring surviving. Continuous monitoring and observation of populations of this type of pest is necessary for the further development of Integrated Pest Management strategies.Fil: Espinoza Gavilánez, Rosita Graciela.

    On Bruno Schulz’s Bookplates

    No full text
    The Polish version of the article was published in Roczniki Humanistyczne vol. 64, issue 1 (2016). The article enters into a dialogue with the interpretation of Bruno Schulz’s bookplates made by Władysław Panas in his book Bruno od Mesjasza (Bruno of the Messiah) (Lublin 2001). An attempt to understand them in a different (less holistic) way leads the author of the article to the conclusion that in Schulz’s plates the first veiled variant of the mythical Book may be seen—of the fundamental motif of Bruno Schulz’s later literary work

    Jordan "Bruno" Gegenhuber '16 Publishes First-Author Research

    Jordan "Bruno" Gegenhuber '16 had first-author research, "Gene regulation by gonadal hormone receptors underlies brain sex differences," published in nature magazine on May 4, 2022.Jordan "Bruno" Gegenhuber '16 had first-author research, "Gene regulation by gonadal hormone receptors underlies brain sex differences," published in Nature magazine on May 4, 2022. Sex hormones play a central role in shaping behavior throughout the animal kingdom, and this study maps where the receptor for estrogen binds to DNA in neurons that regulate rodent social interactions. The findings reveal that estrogen establishes lasting sex differences in gene expression and neuroanatomy during brain development, and identifies hundreds of genes that may mediate estrogen's effects on behavior and disease. Gegenhuber earned a PhD from the Cold Springs Harbor Laboratory School of Biological Sciences in Long Island, N.Y.. in May 2022. His field of research is in neuroscience, and he has accepted a postdoctoral research position at Harvard Medical Center in Boston, Mass. He also holds the honor of being the Pacific Class of 2016 Valedictorian

    Machine Learning Generalisation across Different 3D Architectural Heritage

    No full text
    The use of machine learning techniques for point cloud classification has been investigated extensively in the last decade in the geospatial community, while in the cultural heritage field it has only recently started to be explored. The high complexity and heterogeneity of 3D heritage data, the diversity of the possible scenarios, and the different classification purposes that each case study might present, makes it difficult to realise a large training dataset for learning purposes. An important practical issue that has not been explored yet, is the application of a single machine learning model across large and different architectural datasets. This paper tackles this issue presenting a methodology able to successfully generalise to unseen scenarios a random forest model trained on a specific dataset. This is achieved looking for the best features suitable to identify the classes of interest (e.g., wall, windows, roof and columns)

    Bruno Schulz i polityka

    Bruno Schulz and politicsThe article discusses Bruno Schulz’s attitude toward politics. It is well known that the author of The Cinnamon Shops was a nonpolitical man. This was the reason for some fi erce attacks against his prose conducted by politically engaged literary critics in the interwar Poland. The author mentions these attacks but he also analyzes Schulz’s less known essays about Piłsudski, Aragon and Brecht, and the way Schulz pictured politics in his prose. It seems that a political dictionary of the author of The Street of Crocodiles comprised terms from different political ideologies; he alluded to Marx, anarchism and Brzozowski. At the end of his article the author discusses the question whether Schulz’s nonpolitical attitude could be compared to the so called conservative revolution in Germany after World War I
