De-Commemoration
In the wake of recent protests against police violence and racism, calls to dismantle problematic memorials have reverberated around the globe. This is not a new phenomenon, however, nor is it limited to the Western world. De-Commemoration focuses on the concept of de-commemoration as it relates to remembrance. Drawing on research from experts on memory dynamics across various disciplines, this extensive collection seeks to make sense of the current state of de-commemoration as it transforms contemporary societies around the world.
Experimental and Theoretical Advances in Fluid Dynamics
The book is comprised of lectures and selected contributions presented at the Enzo Levi and XVI Annual Meeting of the Fluid Dynamic Division of the Mexican Physical Society in 2010. It is aimed at fourth year undergraduate and graduate students, as well as scientists in the fields of physics, engineering and chemistry with an interest in fluid dynamics from the experimental and theoretical point of view. The lectures are introductory and avoid the use of complicated mathematics. The other selected contributions are also geared to fourth year undergraduate and graduate students. The fluid dynamics applications include multiphase flow, convection, diffusion, heat transfer, rheology, granular material, viscous flow, porous media flow, geophysics and astrophysics. The material contained in the book includes recent advances in experimental and theoretical fluid dynamics and will be of great use to those involved in either teaching and/or research.
Latin America's Contested Pasts in Telenovelas and TV Series
In Latin America, the production of telenovelas and TV series about the region's recent and traumatic past has grown considerably in the last 20 years, affecting societal perceptions of the past, historical consciousness, and political culture. While these TV products are usually perceived as trivial, they do provide a historical framework to a wide audience, which finds it easier to relate to the national past through fiction than through history books, journalistic articles or documentaries. Latin America's Contested Pasts in Telenovelas and TV Series analyzes the historical culture of Latin American society embodied in telenovelas and TV series from the 1960s to this day. It compiles regional case studies on the televised representation of 20th-century dictatorships in Chile, Argentina, and Brazil, as well as the war against drug trafficking and the armed conflict in Colombia. Highlighting the political and social relevance of fictional television, the contributions offer interdisciplinary insights into its discourses and narratives, from the heroization of criminals to the search for reconciliation and the construction of a historical memory.

XLVI Mexican Conference on Biomedical Engineering
This book reports on cutting-edge research and best practices in the broad fiel of biomedical engineering. Based on the XLVI Mexican Congress on Biomedical Engineering, CNIB 2023, held on November 2-4, 2023 in Villahermosa Tabasco, Mexico, this second volume of the proceedings covers research topics in biomechanics, materials and engineering design and manufacturing, with applications in prostheses design and development, tissue engineering, medical device assessment and healthcare management. All in all, this book provides a timely snapshot on state-of-the-art achievements in biomedical engineering and current challenges in the field. It addresses both researchers and professionals, and it is expect to foster future collaborations between the two groups, as well as international collaborations. .
XLV Mexican Conference on Biomedical Engineering
This book reports on fundamental research, cutting-edge technologies and industrially-relevant applications in biomedical engineering. It covers methods for analysis, modeling and simulation of biological systems, reporting on the development and design of advanced biosensors, nanoparticles and wearable devices. It covers applications in disease monitoring and therapy, tissue engineering, sport and rehabilitation, and telehealth. It also reports on engineering methods for improving and monitoring medical service, and on advanced robotic applications. Gathering the proceedings of the XLV Congreso Nacional de Ingeniería Biomédica (CNIB2022), organised by the Mexican Society of Biomedical Engineering, this book offers a timely snapshot on technologies and methods in bioengineering, and on challenges related to their practical implementation in the health sector.
Texturas de la imaginación
En una época marcada por la preeminencia ya sea de la ciencia, que supuestamente describiría a la realidad empírica de un modo directo e inmediato, ya sea de los signos monopolizados por los procesos de significación que llegaron a un lugar central con el giro lingüístico, las texturas de la imaginación resca-tan a la sensualidad material de lo real soslayada por las abstracciones reinantes en esas dos posiciones polares. El trabajo de la imaginación, al promover la aparición de lo real como imágenes que no son meras apariencias, nos da la posibilidad de rescatarnos, al mismo tiempo, de las posiciones subjetivas desde las que insensiblemente mantenemos a las micropolíticas dominan...
Revista Digital Internacional de Psicología y Ciencia Social | Vol. 2 | Num. 2 | 2016
La invocación de un sentido de responsabilidad social en la ciencia no basta para que los científicos se den a la tarea de construir conocimiento social de manera armónica y colaborativa. Es necesario construir un tejido social científico en donde impere un pluralismo sociológico caracterizado por la aceptación de la diversidad y se realicen acciones de equidad en un entorno transdisciplinar. De acuerdo con esta premisa, el objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el escenario en que el pluralismo sociológico y la transdisciplina influyen en el pensamiento actual, así como también mostrar cómo se puede construir un nuevo tejido científico social en el conocimiento, la ciencia y la tecnología a partir del cultivo de la transdisciplina. El artículo concluye que es necesario construir espacios de interacción y dialogo entre distintas disciplinas para construir un mejor conocimiento, desarrollar la ciencia e innovar en la creación de tecnologías amigables con el ser humano y con el medio ambiente.
