    Salvador Moncada also pioneered new fields. As a student of Sir John Vane he helped discover how aspirin inhibits prostaglandin biosynthesis and at the Wellcome Research Laboratories he discovered the prostaglandin derivative prostacyclin, which suppresses blood platelet aggregation and is now widely used therapeutically. Moncada is best known for his research in the 1980’s which helped identify what was then described as “endothelium derived relaxing factor” as the simple gaseous chemical nitric oxide. His influential review of the field was one of the most highly cited papers of the 1990s, with more than 6,500 citations (Moncada, S (1991) Nitric oxide – physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology Pharmacol Rev 43:109-142). Many believed that he should have shared the 1998 Nobel Prize for the discovery of nitric oxide. He has since collaborated with industrial partners to explore the development of therapeutic products based on nitric oxide pharmacology.Supported by a Wellcome Trust Public Engagement grant (2006-2008) in the History of Medicine to Professor Tilli Tansey (QMUL) and Professor Leslie Iversen (Oxford), this project recorded interviews with 12 prominent neuroscientists, between 2006 and 2008

    Los relatos orales y el archivo fotográfico como herramienta de construcción de narrativas de memoria y hogar en la familia Moncada Caicedo del municipio de Yolombó

    No full text
    Dentro de la familia Moncada Caicedo, oriunda del municipio de Yolombó, existe una gran cantidad de relatos orales y fotografías que hacen parte de su historia, la cual comienza cuando Octavio Moncada y María Fe Caicedo formalizan una relación y nace su primer hijo -en total fueron 12-. El objetivo principal de esta investigación es examinar cómo dichos relatos orales y el archivo fotográfico de la familia, que abarcan cerca de cinco décadas, han sido clave para la construcción de narrativas en temas de memoria y hogar. Esta investigación, basada en los estudios culturales como teoría clave, es de carácter cualitativo y tiene como métodos de recolección de información el grupo focal, la entrevista semiestructurada y el análisis de fotografías. Como principales hallazgos se encontró que los hermanos Moncada Caicedo tienen gran unión y esta se ve reflejada en las fotografías, su significado de hogar es la unión y la memoria de sus padres y lo que estos les transmitieron.Within the Moncada Caicedo’s family, originally from the municipality of Yolombó, there is a wealth of oral narratives and photographs that are part of their history - one that begins when Octavio Moncada and María Fe Caicedo formalized a relationship and had their first (and not only) child; in total, the couple had 12 children. The main objective of this research is to examine how these shared oral stories and the family’s photographic archive, which spans nearly five decades, have been key to the construction of narratives around memory and home. This research, based on cultural studies as its theoretical framework, is qualitative in nature and employs focus groups, semi-structured interviews, and photographic analysis as its data collection methods. Among the main findings is the strong bond among the Moncada Caicedo siblings, which is reflected in the photographs. Their understanding of home is deeply tied to unity and to the memory of their parents and what they passed on to them.PregradoComunicado

    R&D profitability: the role of risk and Knightian uncertainty

    No full text
    This paper provides the first empirical attempt of linking firms’ profits and investment in R&D revisiting Knight’s (Risk, uncertainty and profit,Hart, Schaffner & Marx, Boston,1921) distinction between uncertainty and risk. Along with the risky profit-maximising scenario, identifying a second, off-setting, unpredictable bias that leads to heterogeneous returns to R&D investments is crucial to fully understand the drivers of corporate profits. Consistently with the Knightian theory that relates risk to profitability, we model the impact of risk and uncertainty on profits and provide a first empirical attempt to model the effect of ambiguity, a particular type of uncertainty,on R&D returns

    Drivers and Impacts in the Globalization of Corporate R&D: An Introduction Based on the European Experience

    No full text
    The globalization of R&D activities has continued its growth path as companies are increasingly trying to capture knowledge and market opportunities internationally. The rapid evolution of national economies and the ways to conduct knowledge-intensive businesses has led researchers and analysts to pursue a deeper understanding of the globalization of corporate R&D and the related driving factors and impacts. This introduction to the Special Section: "Globalization and Corporate R&D" forthcoming in Industrial and Corporate Change (vol. 20 (2), April 2011) provides an update of trends in the globalization of corporate R&D. It reviews the literature on the main drivers and impacts of the process under investigation, introduces the papers for this Special Section, and offers some concluding remarks.outsourcing, R&D, globalization, FDI

    Graphis lurizana Lücking, Moncada & Celis sp. nov. Mycobank MB 828115 (Fig. 3b). Diagnosis. Differing from Graphis illinata in the apically exposed, black labia and the smaller ascospores. Type. COLOMBIA. Atlántico: Usiacurí, Distrito Regional de Manejo Integrado (DMI) Luriza; 10º44’22” N, 75º01’24” W, 100–200 m; 1 December 2015; R. Lücking, B. Moncada et al. 42922 (UNO, holotype; B, isotype). Description. Thallus corticolous, epiperidermal, up to 7 cm diam., continuous, white-grey, uneven, opaque; prothallus not observed. Thallus in section 100–150 µm thick, with thin, prosoplectenchymatous cortex and irregular photobiont layer, strongly encrusted with large clusters of calcium oxalate crystals. Ascomata lirellate, unbranched to sparsely branched, prominent, 1–3 mm long, 0.4–0.5 mm broad, 0.2–0.3 mm high; disc concealed; labia entire, apically exposed, black, with irregular, lateral thalline margin. Excipulum completely carbonized (thin at the base), 70–100 µm broad; hypothecium 20–30 µm high, hyaline. Hymenium 130–160 µm high, clear; paraphyses unbranched, apically smooth. Asci 120–130 × 25– 25 µm, oblong. Ascospores 1 per ascus, richly muriform, 80–110 × 25–30 µm, oblong, with slightly thickened septa and more or less rounded lumina, hyaline, I+ violet-blue. Secondary chemistry: no substances detected by TLC. Etymology. Graphis lurizana is dedicated to the Luriza community, who manages the Distrito Regional de Manejo Integrado (DMI) Luriza, the first protected area to be declared in the Atlántico Department (Molina-Acosta 2013). Remarks. Graphislurizana keysoutingroup 9 in the Graphis world key of Lücking et al. (2009a). There are four species in this group with large ascospores (> 80 µm), lacking secondary substances, and with elongate, prominent lirellae, namely G. acharii Fée, G. cleistomma Nyl., G. illinata Eschw., and G. subvernicosa Lücking. Graphis acharii and G. subvernicosa have (2–)4–6(–8) ascospores per ascus; in addition, in G. acharii the labia rather regularly become striate and the ascospores are longer (up to 170 µm), whereas in G. subvernicosa, the lirellae have only a basal thalline margin and the ascospores are narrower (15–20 µm broad). Graphis cleistomma and G. illinata agree with the new species in the singlespored asci; however, the first has shorter lirellae with an apically thin complete thalline margin, and larger ascospores (up to 180 × 40 µm), whereas the second has lirellae with an apically thick complete margin and slightly longer ascospores (up to 150 µm).Published as part of Lücking, Robert, Moncada, Bibiana, Habibe, María Cristina Martínez-, Salgado- Negret, Beatriz E., Celis, Marcela, Zamora, Oscar Rojas-, Rodríguez- M., Gina M., Brokamp, Grischa & Borsch, Thomas, 2019, Lichen diversity in colombian caribbean dry forest remnants, pp. 94-214 in Caldasia 41 (1) on pages 206-207, DOI: 10.15446/caldasia.v41n1.71060, http://zenodo.org/record/366676

    Fissurina linoana Lücking, Moncada & G. Rodr. sp. nov. Mycobank MB 828114 (Fig. 3a). Diagnosis. Differing from Fissurina alligatorensis in the I-negative ascospores with thin walls and septa. Type. COLOMBIA. Atlántico: Piojó, Reserva Forestal Protectora (RFP) El Palomar; 10º45’47” N, 75º08’56” W, 200–600 m; 18 March 2016, R. Lücking, B. Moncada et al. 42977b (UNO, holotype). Description. Thallus corticolous, up to 2 cm diam., continuous, white-grey with a silvery shine, minutely uneven-verrucose; prothallus not observed. Thallus partially immersed in the periderm, in section 50–80 µm thick, ecorticate, dominated by the irregular photobiont layer, with large clusters of calcium oxalate crystals. Ascomata lirellate, more or less fissurine, unbranched to sparsely branched, immersederumpent, 0.5–1.5 mm long, 0.1–0.2 mm broad, 0.12–0.15 mm high; disc concealed; labia thin, entire, lighter than the thallus, along the slit with a thin, dark brown line, laterally covered by whitish thallus. Excipulum prosoplectenchymatous, 10–15 µm broad, yellowish, laterally covered by thallus including large clusters of crystals; periphysoids absent; hypothecium 10–15 µm high, light olive. Hymenium 90–100 µm high, clear; paraphyses unbranched, apically smooth. Asci 90–100 × 15–20 µm, oblong. Ascospores 8 per ascus, muriform, 15–20 × 9–12 µm, ellipsoid-oval, with thin septa and rectangular lumina, constricted at the median septum, hyaline, I–. Secondary chemistry: no sustances detected by TLC. Etymology. This new species is dedicated to Lino Olivares, one of the most knowledgeable and passionate empirical experts of the flora of the Colombian Caribbean dry forests and collaborator in the EcoSecos initiative and other conservation efforts in the region for 18 years (Castro-Vásquez et al. 2010, Rodríguez et al. 2012, Castellanos Castro and Newton 2015). ‐ Remarks. Currently, there are only two species known in Fissurina with a whitish, endoperidermal thallus, lacking substances, and muriform ascospores, namely F. alligatorensis Lendemer & R.C. Harris and F. ilicicola Lendemer & R.C. Harris (Lendemer and Harris 2014). The first agrees with the new species in thallus and ascoma morphology, as well as ascospore size, but has distoseptate, I+ strongly amyloid ascospores. The second one differs in the more distinct (hemithecioid) labia and the larger (24–32 × 12–14 µm), also distoseptate and I+ amyloid ascospores.Published as part of Lücking, Robert, Moncada, Bibiana, Habibe, María Cristina Martínez-, Salgado- Negret, Beatriz E., Celis, Marcela, Zamora, Oscar Rojas-, Rodríguez- M., Gina M., Brokamp, Grischa & Borsch, Thomas, 2019, Lichen diversity in colombian caribbean dry forest remnants, pp. 94-214 in Caldasia 41 (1) on pages 204-206, DOI: 10.15446/caldasia.v41n1.71060, http://zenodo.org/record/366676
