A Policy to Make Best Use of Resources in Plastic Surgery and Related Specialties (PDF 178 KB)

The purpose of this policy is to introduce a transparent approach to making best use of resources in plastic surgery and related specialties. It was finalised after a formal Public Consultation that included distribution of the Consultation Document to a range of organisations and individuals, meetings with Board representatives as requested and press releases in local and regional media outlets. All responses to the Consultation were considered carefully in developing this final policy. åÊ åÊ

The Outlaw Pirate Heroine, An Analysis of a Durgā Figure in a 1935 Prabhat Film

(Résumé de l'ouvrage) She kills and destroys. She causes illness and disaster. The wild goddess evokes fear and terror. People worship her with blood-sacrifices and alcohol in order to appease her rage, but also in order to participate in her power for she is at once a force of destruction and a force of regeneration, of life, and of sexuality. Her creative violence reflects the ambivalent power of nature. The idea of frightening goddesses is preserved in regionally different forms throughout South Asia. The Institute for the Science of Religions, University of Berne, and the Museum of Anthropology of the University of Zurich, coordinated a symposium on wild goddesses in India and Nepal. The papers and reports on ongoing research presented at this symposium are published in this volume.

Pla de màrqueting de l’hotel Moments de Film

Treball sobre la creació d’un pla de màrqueting d’un hotel temàtic fictici. Aquest sorgeix d’un objectiu secundari fruit d’una motivació personal amb interès cap a la coneixença dels hotels temàtics, que responia a les següents preguntes: Què és un hotel temàtic? Quins tipus d’hotels temàtics podem trobar? Quan sorgeixen els hotels temàtics? El Pla de Màrqueting representa el desenvolupament d’una idea creativa, imaginant que els hotels poden ser molt més que un simple allotjament. Poden esdevenir llocs que poden conduir cap al món de les sensacions i de les experiències úniques

Plastic and evolutionary responses of cell size and number to larval malnutrition in Drosophila melanogaster.

Both development and evolution under chronic malnutrition lead to reduced adult size in Drosophila. We studied the contribution of changes in size vs. number of epidermal cells to plastic and evolutionary reduction of wing size in response to poor larval food. We used flies from six populations selected for tolerance to larval malnutrition and from six unselected control populations, raised either under standard conditions or under larval malnutrition. In the control populations, phenotypic plasticity of wing size was mediated by both cell size and cell number. In contrast, evolutionary change in wing size, which was only observed as a correlated response expressed on standard food, was mediated entirely by reduction in cell number. Plasticity of cell number had been lost in the selected populations, and cell number did not differ between the sexes despite males having smaller wings. Results of this and other experimental evolution studies are consistent with the hypothesis that alleles which increase body size through prolonged growth affect wing size mostly via cell number, whereas alleles which increase size through higher growth rate do so via cell size.

Proposal for the analysis of a video game, a film, and their relationship : Silent Hill as a subject of the horror genre

Aquest treball de recerca fa un estudi comparatiu del videojoc de terror amb el seu homòleg cinematogràfic. L’objectiu és arribar a saber si els dos mitjans de comunicació usen les mateixes tècniques per transmetre les seves històries i per crear suspens. Aquesta investigació és només una part d'un estudi més ampli amb el que es pretén tenir un coneixement més aprofundit de les emocions de la gent i les reaccions que els provoca un videojoc de terror en comparació amb la visualització de l'adaptació cinematogràfica del corresponent videojoc.

A partir de un acto interactivo con la wwww.aeat.es, el usuario envía telemáticamente el modelo 100 en un entorno con tendencia a la incertidumbre y a las dificultades de usabilidad, sin embargo, la investigación pretende demostrar que en dicho acto, el usuario construye una historia narrativa debido a la existencia de una motivación y a la tendencia connatural a la representación narrativa, a pesar que la web no fue intencionalmente construida con propósitos narrativos. El estudio, además, enfoca la interacción como un acto inmersivo y reconoce en la incertidumbre las variables que determinan la continuidad y rumbo del relato. La investigación propone un modelo interpretativo para el análisis y la estructuración del espacio y la historia implícita. Y a nivel exploratorio, se propone la aplicación del Mouse Tracking como técnica científica.
