Los festivales en la pandemia: voces para la reconstrucción del entramado escénico iberoamericano
El encuentro de Festivales Iberoamericanos de Artes Escénicas (EFíbero) nació como un proyecto especial en el seno del Programa Iberescena, único espacio de cooperación intergubernamental destinado al desarrollo del teatro, la danza y el circo en la región cultural iberoamericana. Desde su creación en 2006 este programa ha sido un espacio de enorme potencial para darle un impulso destacado al sector, como lo han sido también los organismos destinados al impulso específico de la actividad teatral en diversos países de la región. No solo Argentina cuenta con un Instituto dedicado específicamente al fomento de la actividad teatral: varios países latinoamericanos han creado también sus propios organismos estatales con la misma dirección. Sin embargo, la falta de evaluación de las políticas implementadas ha sido uno de los grandes déficits de estos ejemplos de gestión pública.
Bodies, Territories and Serious Violations of Human Rights in Mexico
This book seeks to contribute to the analysis of the serious violations of human rights in Mexico during the processes of democratic transition and the "War on Drugs" by taking bodies and territories as archives of the crimes committed by the Mexican State in the last decades. The text presents an analysis of the disappearance of persons, forced internal displacement, and gender violence as systematic expressions of State violence. These fields of research allow us to point out tensions between social practices and the institutional fragility that systematically denies human rights violations while at the same time ratifies and celebrates them. The thematic knotting between bodies and territ...

Microbial Biotechnology
Incorporates the Experiences of World-Class Researchers Microbial Biotechnology: Progress and Trends offers a theoretical take on topics that relate to microbial biotechnology. The text uses the "novel experimental experiences" of various contributors from around the world—designed as case studies—to highlight relevant topics, issues, and recent developments surrounding this highly interdisciplinary field. It factors in metagenomics and microbial biofuels production, and incorporates major contributions from a wide range of disciplines that include microbiology, biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, chemistry, biochemical engineering, and bioprocess engineering. In addition, it also...
Telomeres and Telomerase
Telomeres are essential functional elements of eukaryotic chromosomes. Their fundamental biological role as protectors of chromosome stability was identified for the first time in the 1930s by Hermann Muller and Barbara McClintock based on pioneering cytological experiments. Modern molecular research carried out more recently revealed that telomeres and telomerase play important roles in processes such as carcinogenesis and cellular senescence. This special issue presents the most recent developments in this highly active field of research. It is becoming increasingly clear that molecular pathways involved in regulation of telomere length and structure are functionally linked with pathways involved in DNA damage response, cellular stress response, chromatin organization and perhaps even pathways that regulate evolutionary chromosome rearrangements. The above functional link is explored by the leading experts in the field of telomere biology. Cell biologists, molecular biologists, oncologists, gerontologists, and radiobiologists with an interest in the role of telomeres/telomerase will appreciate the up-to-date information in this publication.
Microbial Toxins
Toxins are important virulence determinants responsible for microbial pathogenicity and/or evasion of the host immune response. Understanding the molecular and cellular biology of toxins is critical for the development of new anti-toxin strategies, particularly for those with bioterrorism capability. Indeed, potential applications of toxin research extend beyond simply combating microbial virulence and include the development of novel anti-cancer drugs and other frontline medicines, use of toxins as tools in neurobiology and cellular biology, etc. This timely volume serves as an update on important recent advances. Written by internationally respected scientists, topics reviewed include: toxins carried by mobile genetic elements, botulinum neurotoxins, anthrax, subtilase cytotoxin, Pasteurella multocida toxin, RTX toxins of vibrios, vacA toxin, staphylococcal immune evasion toxins, and fungal ribotoxins. The book is essential reading for everyone with an interest in microbial toxins, and it is recommended for other scientists with an interest in microbiology, bioterrorism, microbial pathogenesis, and microbial genomics.
Handbook of Organic Food Safety and Quality
Due to increasing consumer demand for safe, high quality, ethical foods, the production and consumption of organic food and produce has increased rapidly over the past two decades. In recent years the safety and quality of organic foods has been questioned. If consumer confidence and demand in the industry is to remain high, the safety, quality and health benefits of organic foods must be assured. With its distinguished editor and team of top international contributors, Handbook of organic food safety and quality provides a comprehensive review of the latest research in the area.Part one provides an introduction to basic quality and safety with chapters on factors affecting the nutritional q...
Structure and Function of Biological Membranes
Structure and Function of Biological Membranes explains the membrane phenomena at the molecular level through the use of biochemical and biophysical approaches. The book is an in-depth study of the structure and function of membranes. It is divided into three main parts. The first part provides an overview of the study of the biological membrane at the molecular level. Part II focuses on the detailed description of the overall molecular organization of membranes. The third part covers the relationship of the molecular organization of membranes to specific membrane functions; discusses catalytic membrane proteins; presents the role of membranes in important cellular functions; and looks at the membrane systems in eukaryotic cells. Biochemists, cell physiologists, biologists, researchers, and graduate and postdoctoral students in the field of biology will find the text a good reference material.
Migration and Mental Health
Human migration is a global phenomenon and is on the increase. It occurs as a result of 'push' factors (asylum, natural disaster), or as a result of 'pull' factors (seeking economic or educational improvement). Whatever the cause of the relocation, the outcome requires individuals to adjust to their new surroundings and cope with the stresses involved, and as a result, there is considerable potential for disruption to mental health. This volume explores all aspects of migration, on all scales, and its effect on mental health. It covers migration in the widest sense and does not limit itself to refugee studies. It covers issues specific to the elderly and the young, as well as providing practical tips for clinicians on how to improve their own cultural competence in the work setting. The book will be of interest to all mental health professionals and those involved in establishing health and social policy.
