Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region.

Comet Hale-Bopp defines a milestone event for cometary science: it is the first "really big" comet observed with modern equipment on the ground and from space and due to that; it is considered the new reference object in cometary sciences. At the beginning of a new era in spacecraft exploration of comets and five years after Hale-Bopp's perihelion passage these proceedings of invited and contributed papers for IAU Colloquium 186 "Cometary Science after Hale-Bopp" review the state-of-the-art knowledge on comets, the icy, dusty and most primordial left-overs of the formation disk of our own solar system.
Enfermedades raras. Contribuciones a la investigación social y biomédica.
Las enfermedades de baja prevalencia se han convertido en uno de los nuevos retos sociales. La investigación social no puede obviar esta realidad y debe enfrentarse a este complejo entorno social y biomédico. El contexto social de las patologías raras es complejo a causa de la gran cantidad de enfermedades que se encuentran dentro de este gran cajón de las enfermedades de baja prevalencia, de la diversidad de síntomas y efectos, de las carencias de tratamientos, de los problemas en el diagnóstico, de la complejidad en las interacciones moleculares de nuestro organismo, de las consecuencias psicosociales, del impacto social y educativo, etc. En el presente trabajo se pretende dar luz a algunos de estos aspectos.
