Comunicar ciencia en México (De la academia al espacio público)
Esta obra da la oportunidad de conocer aproximaciones a la comunicación de la ciencia. El interés común de los autores es sumar perspectivas para una mejor comprensión de los aspectos teóricos–prácticos en la divulgación del conocimiento científico–tecnológico en nuestra sociedad. Este libro, fruto de la convicción de académicos, investigadores y estudiosos de la comunicación, está estructurado en tres partes: la primera, con ensayos sobre la profesionalización de la comunicación pública de la ciencia; la segunda, con investigaciones sobre la comunicación, el pensamiento crítico y la comunicación pública, y la tercera, con experiencias y modelos sobre espacios para comunicar la ciencia.

Museums, Emotion, and Memory Culture
Museums, Emotion, and Memory Culture examines the politics of emotion in history museums, combining approaches and concerns from museum, heritage and memory studies, anthropology and studies of emotion. Exploring the meanings and politics of memory contests in Turkey, a site for complex negotiations of identity, the book asks what it means for museums to charge the past with political agendas through spectacular, emotive representations. Providing an in-depth examination of emotional practice in two Turkish museums that present contrasting representations of the national past, the book analyses relationships between memory, governmentality, identity, and emotion. The museums discussed celebr...
Clinical Genetics and Genomics of Aging
The world population is rapidly aging—it is estimated that by 1950, around 17% of the population will be elderly. In this context, aging involves several physiological, psychological and highly complex social processes that vary from one person to another. For a long time, medical care for older adults has focused on treating chronic, age-related diseases and their associated consequences. Recently, biomedical research brings a novel point of view to develop more effective interventions by targeting the aging process itself rather than separate conditions. There is a growing number of reports indicating that aging is driven by several interconnected mechanisms and biological components ref...

Land Plants - Trees
Advances in Botanical Research publishes in-depth and up-to-date reviews on a wide range of topics in plant sciences. Currently in its 74th volume, the series features several reviews by recognized experts on all aspects of plant genetics, biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, physiology, and ecology. This volume features reviews on the advances in knowledge for the main traits important in fruit trees and forest trees, the advances in tools and resources for genetics and genomics in these species, and the knowledge developed in three rather separated communities of researchers: forest, fruit trees, and grapevines. - Provides an update of the knowledge related to plant biology for the main traits for forest and fruit trees - Provides an update about the tools available for the study of this category of plants - Gives a general view of research results obtained in two separate research communities, fruit trees and forest trees
Ecology and Evolution of Plants under Domestication in the Neotropics
The Neotropical area is a main setting of the earliest experiences of domestication ofplants, and evolutionary processes guided by humans, which continue being active inthe area. Studies comprised in this Research Topic show a general panorama aboutsimilarities and particularities of processes of domestication for different plant groupsand regions, some of them illustrate how the domestication processes originated anddiffused, how landscape domestication has operated and continues being practicedand others discuss some of the main challenges for designing policies for biosafetyand conservation of plant genetic resources. It is an attempt to identify main topicsfor research on evolution under domestication, and opportunities that researcherscan find in the Neotropics to understand how and why these processes occurredin the past and present.
Piper: A Model Genus for Studies of Phytochemistry, Ecology, and Evolution
Piper is an economically and ecologically important genus of plant that includes a fascinating array of species for studying natural history, natural products chemistry, community ecology, and evolutionary biology. The diversification of this taxon is unique and of great importance in understanding the evolution of plants. The diversity and ecological relevance of this genus makes it an obvious candidate for ecological and evolutionary studies, but surprisingly, most research on Piper spp. to-date has focused on the more economically important plants P. nigrum (black pepper), P. methysticum (kava), and P. betle (betel leaf). While this book does address the applied techniques of studying Pip...
