The chapter will use examples from practices of electronic music to probe potential roles of automation. A central question is how automation can be understood in different contexts. The chapter brings up and analyses a selection of concrete engagements with technology in relation to the practices and genealogies of music making. What could be called provisional lessons from electronic music are s

Small routines and ingrained cultural reflexes as well as micro-rituals form an often unnoticed or ignored flow in everyday life. They acquire their power by being taken for granted and embodied. In situations of conflict, crisis or change, they may suddenly be noticed and become problematic. This chapter looks at how moves, affect, sensations and stuff interact in the making and unmaking of routi

This edited work draws on a range of contributed expertise to trace the fortune of an Aristotelian thesis over different periods in the history of philosophy. It presents eight cases of direct or indirect challenges to the Aristotelian passive account of human cognition, taking the reader from late antiquity to the 20th century. Chapters analyse the (often indirect) effect of Aristotle’s account o

In mammals, IgA is the antibody class that is produced in largest quantities. The main producers are plasma cells located in the lamina propria at mucosal surfaces that secrete it as dimers covalently linked to the J chain. Polymeric immunoglobulin receptors (pIgRs) expressed on epithelial cells bind to dimeric IgA molecules and mediate basolateral to apical transcytosis, before IgA is released in

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Post-resuscitation cardiogenic shock (CS) is a key contributing factor. Targeting a higher arterial carbon dioxide tension may affect AKI after OHCA in patients with or without CS. Methods: Pre-planned exploratory study of a multi-national randomised trial comparing targeted mild hypercapnia o

In this introduction, we explain how the chapters in this volume give support to the idea that different accounts of active cognition in the history of philosophy directly or indirectly respond to Aristotle’s account of cognition in his De anima.

Modern vibrational spectroscopy techniques enable the rapid collection of thousands of spectra in a single hyperspectral image, allowing researchers to study spatially heterogeneous samples at micrometer resolution. A number of algorithms have been developed to correct for effects such as atmospheric absorption, light scattering by cellular structures and varying baseline levels. After preprocessi

This paper analyzes the multi-period base-stock problem where there is a financial risk associated with a stochastic demand. For the single-period problem, it is known that the optimal inventory policy can be obtained with the Black and Scholes option pricing formula. This paper pushes the analysis further by applying the options valuation framework to the multi-period problem and presenting an al

CD40 plays a central regulatory role in the immune system and antibodies able to modulate CD40 signalling may consequently have a potential in immunotherapy, in particular for treatment of lymphomas and autoimmune disease like multiple sclerosis. As a first step to achieve this goal, we describe the selection and characterization of a novel set of fully human anti-CD40 antibody fragments (scFv) fr

Background: Sex hormones in serum have been hypothesized to influence the risk of prostate cancer. We performed a collaborative analysis of the existing worldwide epidemiologic data to examine these associations in a uniform manner and to provide more precise estimates of risks. Methods: Data on serum concentrations of sex hormones from 18 prospective studies that included 3886 men with incident p
