Vivre et écrire Hochelaga

Le roman montréalais actuel configure souvent un espace géographique beaucoup plus vaste que la ville elle-même, celle-ci se situant au croisement de trajectoires qui étendent ses frontières imaginaires aux dimensions du monde. Pensons à « Nikolski » de Nicolas Dickner, par exemple, ou au dernier roman de Monique LaRue, « L’Œil de Marquise ». Mais, tout aussi bien, certains écrivains choisissent, dans un mouvement inverse, de condenser l’espace urbain, saisissant Montréal à travers l’un de ses quartiers. Je me pencherai sur deux oeuvres fort différentes, le roman « 20 h 17 rue Darling » de Bernard Émond, et le recueil de poèmes « L’Œil au calendrier » de Gabriel Landry, afin de comprendre comment l’urbanité montréalaise s’y vit dans les limites d’un quartier, Hochelaga, qui devient ainsi l’incarnation intime de la ville. Je m’intéresserai à la forme qui se trouve donnée au temps, dans cet espace métonymique, et à la manière dont le temps et l’espace se trouvent croisés au fil des déambulations des sujets narrateurs qui font d’Hochelaga le lieu improbable du vivre-ensemble montréalais le plus contemporain.

Bernard Michael Bindon - reproductive physiologist, animal scientist, research leader

This paper is a foreword to a series of papers commissioned on 'the impact of science on the beef industry', where the Beef CRC-related collaborative scientific work of Professor Bernard Michael Bindon will be reviewed. These papers will be presented in March 2006, as part of a 'festschrift' to recognise his wider contributions to the Australian livestock industries for over 40 years. Bindon's career involved basic and applied research in many areas of reproductive physiology, genetics, immunology, nutrition, meat science and more recently genomics, in both sheep and cattle. Together with his collaborators, he made large contributions to animal science by improving the knowledge of mechanisms regulating reproductive functions and in elucidating the physiology and genetics of high fecundity livestock. His collaborative studies with many colleagues of the reproductive biology and genetics of the Booroola Merino were amongst the most extensive ever conducted on domestic livestock. He was instrumental in the development of immunological techniques to control ovulation rate and in examining the application of these and other techniques to increase beef cattle reproductive output. This paper tracks his investigations and achievements both within Australia and internationally. In the later stages of his career he was the major influence in attracting a large investment in Cooperative Research Centres for the Australian cattle industry, in which he directed a multi-disciplinary approach to investigate, develop and disseminate science and technology to improve commercial cattle productivity.

MOND virial theorem applied to a galaxy cluster

Large values for the mass-to-light ratio (ϒ) in self-gravitating systems is one of the most important evidences of dark matter. We propose a expression for the mass-to-light ratio in spherical systems using MOND. Results for the COMA cluster reveal that a modification of the gravity, as proposed by MOND, can reduce significantly this value.

A contribuição de Claude Bernard à ecologia médica

Claude Bemard realizou importante contribuição à Ecologia Médica quando propôs o conceito de "meio interior". Além de permitir a compreensão dos processos fisiológicos fundamentais, constituiu o ponto de partida para o estudo da ecologia endógena dos organismos. Como Shelford e Chapman notaram, nesse nível, a ecologia e a fisiologia têm muito em comum. No nível individual, a ecologia médica preocupa-se com o estudo das relações entre o homem e a microbiota endógena. Claude Bemard identificou os fatores abióticos do meio interno, na época em que Pasteur e Koch identificavam e descreviam os componentes bióticos do microecossistema endógeno.
