Primates, Pathogens, and Evolution
The immune systems of human and non-human primates have diverged over time, such that some species differ considerably in their susceptibility, symptoms, and survival of particular infectious diseases. Variation in primate immunity is such that major human pathogens - such as immunodeficiency viruses, herpesviruses and malaria-inducing species of Plasmodium - elicit striking differences in immune response between closely related species and within primate populations. These differences in immunity are the outcome of complex evolutionary processes that include interactions between the host, its pathogens and symbiont/commensal organisms. The success of some pathogens in establishing persisten...
Gesundheitswissen aus Behördenhand
Zahlreiche Bundeseinrichtungen erfullen historisch traditionsreiche Aufgaben der Ressortforschung im Gesundheitsbereich. Sie nehmen als Teile der Bundesverwaltung komplexe Relaisfunktionen zwischen Wissenschaft, Politik sowie administrativer Rechtsanwendung wahr. Manche Einrichtungen wie das Robert Koch- oder das Paul-Ehrlich-Institut haben in der Corona-Pandemie als Akteure staatlicher Wissensgenerierung breite Bekanntheit erlangt. Aber auch andere - wie das Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut oder die Bundesinstitute fur Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte und fur Risikobewertung - verfugen uber leistungsstarke Forschungsabteilungen und agieren durch Forschung und Publikation als aktive Teilnehmer im Wissenschaftsprozess. Die Untersuchung spurt der Geschichte der Einrichtungen, ihrer Funktion im demokratischen Rechtsstaat, ihrer Unabhangigkeit und ihrer Bedeutung fur rechtliche Entscheidungsverfahren nach.

Trickster Academy
"Trickster Academy is a full-length collection of poems that explore the experience of being Native in Academia-from land acknowledgment statements to the criteria for tenure and the histories of using Native American remains within Anthropology. Organized around the premise of the Trickster Academy, a university space run by and meant for training "tricksters," this collection moves between the personal dynamics of a two-spirit Indigenous woman in spaces where there are few others, and a "trickster's" critique of those same spaces. But these realities aren't specific only to those in academic positions-from leaving home, to being the only Indian in the room, to having to deal with the constant pressures to being a 'real Indian', they are shared experiences of Indians across many different regions, and all of us who live among tricksters"--
