    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

    The heartworm Dirofilaria immitis is an important parasite of dogs. Transmitted by mosquitoes in warmer climatic zones, it is spreading across southern Europe and the Americas at an alarming pace. There is no vaccine, and chemotherapy is prone to complications. To learn more about this parasite, we have sequenced the genomes of D. immitis and its endosymbiont Wolbachia. We predict 10,179 protein coding genes in the 84.2 Mb of the nuclear genome, and 823 genes in the 0.9-Mb Wolbachia genome. The D. immitis genome harbors neither DNA transposons nor active retrotransposons, and there is very little genetic variation between two sequenced isolates from Europe and the United States. The differential presence of anabolic pathways such as heme and nucleotide biosynthesis hints at the intricate metabolic interrelationship between the heartworm and Wolbachia. Comparing the proteome of D. immitis with other nematodes and with mammalian hosts, we identify families of potential drug targets, immune modulators, and vaccine candidates. This genome sequence will support the development of new tools against dirofilariasis and aid efforts to combat related human pathogens, the causative agents of lymphatic filariasis and river blindness

    Also By The Same Author: AKTiveAuthor, a Citation Graph Approach to Name Disambiguation

    No full text
    The desire for definitive data and the semantic web drive for inference over heterogeneous data sources requires co-reference resolution to be performed on those data. In particular, name disambiguation is required to allow accurate publication lists, citation counts and impact measures to be determined. This paper describes a graph-based approach to author disambiguation on large-scale citation networks. Using self-citation, co-authorship and document source analyses, AKTiveAuthor clusters papers, achieving precision of 0.997 and recall of 0.818 over a test group of eight surname clusters

    John F. Kennedy telegram to Roosevelt

    No full text
    Jersey Homesteads (later the Borough of Roosevelt) was established in the 1930s as an agro-industrial cooperative community. It was established specifically for urban Jewish garment workers, many of whom had emigrated from Europe. President John F. Kennedy sent a telegram to the citizens of Roosevelt, New Jersey, apologizing for not being able to attend the memorial dedication in honor of former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. (Jersey Homesteads became Roosevelt in 1945 in honor of the president.) President Kennedy expressed his gratitude to the people of Roosevelt for constructing the memorial, and commented that it will serve as a constant reminder of Roosevelt's good works

    Logarithmic variance profiles and the corresponding f-1 spectra of temperature fluctuations in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection

    We report experimental results for the temperature variance 2(z) and the corresponding frequency spectra P(f) in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection (RBC) in a cylindrical sample of aspect ratioT= D/L = 1:00 (D = 1:12 m is the diameter and L = 1:12 m the height). The measurements were conducted in the Rayleigh-number range 1011 < Ra < 1:35 1014 and Pr ' 0:8. For Ra = 1:35x1014, 2(z) could be described well by a logarithmic dependence on the vertical position z in a range of z 1 < z < z 2 with z 1 ' 70 and z 2 = 0:1L. Here L=(2Nu) is the thickness of a thin thermal sublayer adjacent to the horizontal plate where the heat flux (denoted by the Nusselt number Nu) is carried mostly by thermal diffusion. In the log layer, we found that the temperature spectra had a significant frequency range over which P(f) f with close to 1. As Ra decreased, increased so that the log layer became thinner. At Ra = 2:05 1011, z 2 < z 1 and therefore there was no range for a log layer. Correspondingly, the temperature spectrum near the horizontal plate did not have the f1 scaling form either

    Mapping the Discipline of the Olympic Games An Author-Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    The authors conducted an author cocitation analysis on prominent authors writing about the Olympics during the 1990s. Author cocitation is an established bibliometric technique that can be used to measure the relative similarities of topics written about by the cited authors. This enables a visual representation of the “intellectual space” of the discipline, in this case the Olympics, to be created for the period under review. So core and peripheral research areas are identified, along with their major contributors. The representation appears as a two-dimensional cluster-enhanced map. Subject expertise was then applied to the results to place labels on the generated clusters of authors and their topics

    Comparative genomics of parasites

    Get PDF
    Comparative genomics is an emerging field in biology that started in 1995 when the first two genomes of self-replicating organisms had been sequenced. Since then, a plethora of genome sequences from parasites, hosts and vectors has been made available. The comparison of genomes may shed light on the genetic and evolutionary bases of convergent and divergent properties throughout the tree of life. Comparative genomics of parasites may be performed at different levels: (i) between parasites and free-living organisms, (ii) between parasite and host, (iii) within closely related species (family, genus), and (iv) within species. Studies on all four levels were performed in the framework of this PhD thesis. On the one hand I took advantage of the wealth of genomes available to gain new insights into the molecular nature of host-pathogen interactions, drug target discovery and evolution of parasites in general. On the other hand whole genome sequencing projects were carried out that directly addressed parasite chemotherapy. Three algorithms were invented to study important aspects of parasitology. Automated tools were developed that are widely applicable to parasites and they were included in the Dirofilaria immits genome project. First, whole parasite proteomes were screened for molecular mimicry candidates by comparing parasite sequences to host and control species. Linear epitopes were identified that were present in the host proteome as well as in the parasite but not in free-living control organisms. The designed pipeline returned several interesting hits, most notably a motif in several PfEMP1 variants identical to part of the heparin-binding domain in the cytoadhesive and immunosuppressive serum protein vitronectin. Moreover, a homolog of cytokine suppressor SOCS5 was found in several pathogenic nematodes. Second, a tool was built that discriminates DNA sequences to the level of species of origin based on palindrome frequency patterns. It relied on the highly specific palindrome occurrence among species for DNA typing. The power of the program was illustrated when the comparison of palindrome frequency patterns provided further evidence for horizontal gene transfer between D. immitis and its Wolbachia endosymbiont. Third, a drug target prediction pipeline was designed that is based on the assumption that proteins are likely to be essential if they are highly conserved among related species and if there are no similar proteins in the same proteome. By inclusion of other criteria such as matchlessness in the human proteome, expression in a relevant stage and prediction of druggability, candidates were identified that may serve as starting points for rational drug discovery. When applied to P. falciparum, a sizeable list of 40 proteins with proven and new targets was obtained. Further, whole genome sequencing was conducted of a drug-sensitive Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense STIB900 line and two drug-resistant derivatives STIB900-M and STIB900-P. By comparative genomics, mutations and gene deletions were detected that may confer drug resistance to melarsoprol and pentamidine. Proof-of-principle was the detection of the loss of known determinants of drug susceptibility, the adenosine transporter TbAT1 and the aquaporin TbAQP2. Moreover, a coding mutation occurred in both resistance lines in the gene for the RNA-binding protein UBP1. In conclusion, comparative genomics is a powerful tool that offers new opportunities in biological research. Comparative genomics can be applied at different levels, from basic research to applied questions such as drug discovery and resistance
