Procesos Creativos Contemporáneos y Posthumanismo. Investigación desde las prácticas en artes visuales contemporáneas y sus cruzamientos transdisciplinarios
El tema central de esta tesis es el abordaje de los procesos creativos contemporáneos desde una perspectiva posthumanista, con una mirada particular desde las artes visuales contemporáneas y sus cruzamientos transdisciplinarios. El foco de interés principal radica en investigar las formas en las que se está aportando a la creación de conocimiento en nuestra contemporaneidad desde el campo del arte y sus sinergias transdisciplinarias en relación a variables que afectan nuestras vidas cotidianas como la hiperconectividad, el avance de la inteligencia artificial (IA) y el desantropocentrismo, entre otros factores que nos hacen reconsiderar las dualidades humano / no-humano y cultura / naturaleza. Para ello se propone un abordaje tanto desde el plano teórico como desde las prácticas artísticas con una metodología abierta en sintonía con los principales planteos posthumanistas.Índice de contenidos. -- Agradecimientos. -- Resumen. -- .Abstract. -- Índice de contenidos. --

Shoot micro-distribution patterns in the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica
Posidonia oceanica meadows host a huge number of shoots and their dynamics is strictly related to the spatial distribution patterns of those shoots. To investigate the structure of P. oceanica meadows at very small spatial scale (i.e. in the 10(0)-10(2) cm range), point patterns of shoot micro-distribution were analyzed. Spatial distribution of shoots was recorded by cutting all the leaves and by digitizing shoot location from pictures of square frames (1 m(2)) that were randomly positioned in seemingly uniformly dense stands. Ten frames were sampled, all from Southern Italian meadows, and the position of 7828 shoots was recorded. Nearest neighbour distance (NNd) statistics revealed recurring patterns at the different spatial scales: regular patterns were recognized among shoots at smaller spatial scale (10(0)-10(1) cm), while aggregated shoot distribution emerged in the 10(1)-10(2) cm range and an important stochastic component was observed at larger spatial scales. Reasons underpinning different spatial point patterns in P. oceanica meadows were discussed by relating the observed patterns to ecological processes (i.e. competition among shoots, role of "species-specific" drivers or "site-specific" features), also including relationships between shoot NNd and shoot density counts. The raw data, provided as supplementary material, are currently the first and the only source of information available about shoot spatial micro-distribution. In this regard, although our data set cannot represent the whole spectrum of variability in P. oceanica meadows, it can be regarded as a first step towards a better knowledge of small scale shoot point patterns in P. oceanica meadows

Nerve Growth Factor Receptor immunoreactivity in neurons of the normal adult rat spinal cord and its modulation after peripheral nerve lesions.
Motoneurons of the rat spinal cord express low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor (LNGFR) and corresponding mRNA during development, and re-express it after their axotomy by peripheral nerve injury. The present study establishes the anatomical and quantitative baseline of LNGFR immunoreactive (LNGFR-IR) neurons of the entire normal adult female rat and then investigates the temporal course for the re-expression of LNGFR-IR in lumbar motoneurons after either a crush lesion (which is followed by regeneration and reconnection to the muscle) or a cut lesion with removal of the distal stump (where a neuroma but no reconnection is formed). In the normal adult spinal cord, two types of LNGFR-IR neurons were recognized: (1) small populations of large motoneurons located in the ventral horn mainly in correspondence to the regions of the phrenic, cremasteric and dorsolateral nuclei, and (2) a more numerous and more dorsally located population of small neurons. With a sciatic cut lesion, the number of LNGFR-IR motoneurons at spinal levels L4-L6 rapidly and dramatically increased to a maximum between post-lesion days 1 and 7, apparently involving most axotomized motoneurons of the region, and returned to the baseline level by day 30. With a crush lesion, similar numbers and virtually the same time-course of LNGFR-IR appearance were seen, but the onset of progressive disappearance of LNGFR-IR neurons was delayed by one week, so that at 30 days, the most caudal motoneurons (which are last to reach their target) were still LNGFR-IR. Comparison of these two time courses gives clues to the kind of signals that may be involved in initiating and/or maintaining the LNGFR response

Lo studio riguarda una ricerca esplorativa durata circa 3 anni sui fattori più sistematicamente associati al profitto accademico degli studenti universitari in Italia. Le variabili comprendono aspetti socioculturali, psicologici, metododologici, secondo le acquisizioni nazionali e internazionali più condivise e le tipologie più ricorrenti di tipo cognitivo e non cognitivo, cross-curricolare, ecc. valori medi e correlazionali tra variabili personali, socioculturali, metodologiche, cognitive e non-cognitive. Il gruppo di studio, di circa 800 soggetti, include diversi strati nazionali (centro, nord e sud) e curricolari, di tipo umanistico, scientifico, motorio, con dati riguardanti i Corsi di Laurea in Scienze dell’Educazione e della Formazione, Medicina e Chirurgia, Scienze. La ricerca analizza le nuove tipologie universitarie attivate recentemente in Italia dal DM 509/99 (il “3+2”) e il loro impatto sulla qualità della formazione e sul controllo della dispersione. Alla luce di studi internazionali e italiani , la metodologia più idonea è sembrata quella dello studio esplorativo teso alla descrizione multifattoriale (socioculturale e psicologico) degli studenti e alla validazione sperimentale degli strumenti d’indagine, in vista di successive e più mirate ipotesi di tipo conoscitivo e formativo
