The Political Thought of the Late H.H. Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, Founder of the United Arab Emirates (1966 - 2004)
This thesis highlights the political thought of H.H. Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, a man who made decisive contributions to the history of the twentieth century, and the various reflections of this political thought on the UAE, its people and the international community at large. In this regard, it explores and analyzes a multifaceted political thought that took its form in political practice in the establishment of the Federation, the management of crises and in the building of a prosperous enduring nation. Evaluating the factors that influenced the formation of the doctrinal matrix of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, this thesis traces the background from within which Sheikh Zayed’s leadership skills evolved and developed. From his early years onwards, Sheikh Zayed made a firm commitment to undertake the considerable task of building a fully fledged state out of a divided tribal background, improve the lives of citizens, and carve a place for the UAE in the international arena.
This research project illustrates the implications and dimensions of Sheikh Zayed's political thinking process exemplified in his discursive statements and actions. It documents and analyzes the career achievements of Sheikh Zayed, a statesman acknowledged by contemporary and future generations to have had significant impact on the political direction and overall development of the UAE. This impact also demonstrates the potential of his contribution to the field of political thought.
One of this study’s primary conclusions is that the accomplishments of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al-Nahyan during his rule have resulted primarily from his development of an integrated doctrine of governance that reflected his humanistic outlook. In this regard, at both the domestic and international levels, Sheikh Zayed’s political decisions and acts were undertaken with reference to this outlook

Llibre d'Amic de Joan Vinyoli
De l’éminent poète catalan, Joan Vinyoli, la suprême ambition s’est exprimée dans le recueil intitulé Livre d’ami, présenté ici, en édition bilingue, traduit pour la première fois en français. Il est publié avec une étude que lui a consacrée le philosophe libanais Jad Hatem et accompagné d’une notice biographique de la main de Pep Solà, fin connaisseur de la vie du poète. Si l’on considère l’emprunt du titre de Joan Vinyoli au chef-d’oeuvre de Raymond Lulle, Livre d’Ami est manifestement un livre sans l’Aimé comme si c’était l’amour, comme réalité impersonnelle, qui était l’objet de la quête ou lui-même, l’homme et le poète. Les quinze poèmes, signale Jad Hatem, dessinent un itinéraire initiatique vers un absolu inaccessible qui, s’il prend l’aspect de la femme et de la nature, ne les considère jamais qu’à titre d’intermédiaires
Faculty & Technology: Zayed University Experience
Zayed University is a 5-year institution in the United Arab Emirates comprised of nearly 400 faculty members from more than 30 different countries from all over the world. The challenges facing this institution in terms of creating, establishing and maintaining a professional development (PD) program for faculty and the integration of technology will be reported. This paper will focus on the reporting of the needs assessment instrument development and the subsequent results obtained from the distribution of the tool to the various faculty members from 6 Colleges at Zayed University. The needs assessment results were used to determine the next steps in the PD model program
Non-coding RNAs as biomarkers of myocardial infarction
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) encompass a family of ubiquitous RNA molecules that lack protein-coding potential and have tissue-specific expression. A significant body of evidence indicates that ncRNA's aberrant expression plays a critical role in disease onset and development. NcRNAs' biochemical characteristics such as disease-associated concentration changes, structural stability, and high abundance in body fluids make them promising prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers. Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the term in use to describe MI's early phase, is generally diagnosed by physical examination, electrocardiogram (ECG), and the presence of specific biomarkers. In this regard, compared to standard MI biomarkers, such as the cardiac troponin isoforms (cTnT & cTnI) and the Creatinine Kinase (CK), ncRNAs appears to provide better sensitivity and specificity, ensuring a rapid and correct diagnosis, an earlier treatment, and consequently a good prognosis for the patients. This review aims to summarize and discuss the most promising and recent data on the potential clinical use of circulating ncRNAs as MI biomarkers. Specifically, we focused primarily on miRNAs and lncRNAs, highlighting their significant specificity and sensitivity, discussing their limitations, and suggesting possible overcoming approaches

Hatem Coşkun Hazar ile sözlü tarih görüşmesi
Bu görüşme, Aziz Elbas ve Ahmet Erdönmez koordinatörlüğünde Bursa Büyükşehir Belediyesi bünyesindeki Bursa Araştırmaları Merkezi tarafından Merinos projesi başlığı altında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu proje kapsamında yapılan görüşmelerin sayısı 59'dur.01.05.1964 tarihinde Bursa ilinin Orhaneli ilçesine bağlı Dağgüney köyünde doğan Hatem Coşkun Azar, 1983 yılında Merinos Fabrikası’nda çalışmaya başlar. İşe alınma sürecini anlatan Azar, fabrikadaki çalışma şartlarından da bahseder. Fabrikaya ilk girdiğinde tek büküm daha sonra çift büküm dairesinde görev yapar. Bir süre sonra çalışmaya başladığı konfeksiyon bölümünde 18 sene çalışır. Fabrikanın çalışma sistemine ve işçilere sunduğu imkanlara da değinir. Son olarak fabrikanın anlam ve önemini anlatarak işçilerin kapanma sürecinde verdiği destekleri aktarır.Bursa Büyükşehir BelediyesiMerinos. editör Aziz Elbas. Bursa: Bursa Kültür A.Ş., 2015

Pathogenic mechanisms, diagnostic, and therapeutic potential of microvesicles in diabetes and its complications
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), particularly microvesicles (MVs), have gained significant attention for their role as mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological contexts, including diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the emerging roles of MVs in the pathogenesis of diabetes and associated complications such as nephropathy, retinopathy, cardiomyopathy, and neuropathy. MVs, through their cargo of proteins, lipids, mRNAs, and miRNAs, regulate critical processes like inflammation, oxidative stress, immune responses, and tissue remodeling, all of which contribute to the progression of diabetes and its complications. We examine the molecular mechanisms underlying MVs' involvement in these pathological processes and discuss their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic tools, particularly for drug delivery. Despite promising evidence, challenges remain in isolating and characterizing MVs, understanding their molecular mechanisms, and validating them for clinical use. Advanced techniques such as single-cell RNA sequencing and proteomics are required to gain deeper insights. Improved isolation and purification methods are essential for translating MVs into clinical applications, with potential to develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to improve patient outcomes in diabetes.This work has been developed within the framework of the project eINS-Ecosystem of Innovation for Next Generation Sardinia (cod.
