Its leading subject is interdisciplinary research into the immune system. This subject fits our broader series of issues dedicated to non-neuronal aspects of cognition. Within this concise but varied anthology, we have strived to showcase both the importance and the controversies associated with the notion of the immune self and immunity. We are particularly honoured by the contribution of Alfred Tauber, an unquestionable pioneer and authority in the field of philosophy of immunity. At the same time, we hope to return to this subject on the pages of AVANT in the fu- ture. The guest of this issue’s Philosophical

  • POPPER's GEWÖHNUNGSTHEORIE ASSEMBLED and FACED with OTHER THEORIES of LEARNING1 Arne Friemuth Petersen2
    POPPER’S GEWÖHNUNGSTHEORIE ASSEMBLED AND FACED WITH OTHER THEORIES OF LEARNING1 Arne Friemuth Petersen2 Former Professor of General Psychology University of Copenhagen Abstract. With the publication of Popper’s Frühe Schriften (2006), renewed possibilities for inquiring into the nature and scope of what may be termed simply ‘Popperian Psychology’ have arisen. For although Popper would never have claimed to develop such psychology there is, however, from his earliest to his last works, a wealth of recommendations as to how to come to grips with problems of the psyche without falling victim of inductivist and subjectivist psychology. The fact that most theories of learning, both traditional and modern, have remained inductivist, and therefore logically invalid, places Popper’s hypothetico- deductive approach to learning and the acquisition of knowledge among the most important conjectures in that entire domain, akin to Edelman’s biological theory of consciousness. Central to Popper’s approach and his final rejection of all inductive procedures is his early attempt at a theory of habit-formation, Gewöhnungstheorie (in ‘Gewohnheit’ und ‘Gesetzerlebnis’ in der Erziehung, 1927) – a theory not fully developed at the time but nevertheless of decisive importance for his view on education and later works on epistemology, being ‘of lasting importance for my life’ (2006, p. 501). Working from some of the original descriptions and examples in ‘Gewohnheit’ und ‘Gesetzerlebnis’, updated by correspondence and discussions with Popper this paper presents a tentative reconstruction of his Gewöhnungstheorie, supplemented with examples from present-day behavioural research on, for example, ritualisation of animal and human behaviour and communication (Lorenz), and briefly confronted with competing theories, notably those by representatives of the behaviourist tradition of research on learning (Pavlov and Kandel).

    Edward T. Cone Concert Series ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE 2020–2021 Matthew Shipp The Piano Equation Saturday, November 21 2020 8:00 p.m. ET Virtual Concert, Live from Wolfensohn Hall V wo i T r n tu so osity S ea Institute for Advanced Study 2020–2021 Edward T. Cone Concert Series Saturday, November 21, 2020 8:00 p.m. ET MATTHEW SHIPP PROGRAM THE PIANO EQUATION Matthew Shipp Funding for this concert is provided by the Edward T. Cone Endowment and a grant from the PNC Foundation. ABOUT THE MUSIC David Lang writes: Over the summer I asked Matthew Shipp if he would like to play for us the music from his recent recording The Piano Equation. This album came out towards the beginning of the pandemic and I found myself listening to it over and over—its unhurried wandering and unpredictable changes of pace and energy made it a welcome, thoughtful accompaniment to the lockdown. My official COVID soundtrack. Matthew agreed, but he warned me that what he would play might not sound too much like what I had heard on the recording. This music is improvised, which means that it is different every time. And of course, that is one of the reasons why I am interested in sharing it on our season. We have been grouping concerts under the broad heading of ‘virtuosity’–how music can be designed so that we watch and hear a musical problem being overcome, right before our eyes and ears. Improvisation is a virtuosity all its own, a virtuosity of imagination, of flexibility, of spontaneity.

  • Of Action of Anti-Erythrocyte Antibodies in a Murine Model of Immune Thrombocytopenia
    Elucidating the Mechanism(s) of Action of Anti-Erythrocyte Antibodies in a Murine Model of Immune Thrombocytopenia by Ramsha Khan A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology University of Toronto © Copyright by Ramsha Khan 2021 Elucidating the Mechanism(s) of Action of Anti-Erythrocyte Antibodies in a Murine Model of Immune Thrombocytopenia Ramsha Khan Doctor of Philosophy Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology University of Toronto 2021 Abstract Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune bleeding disorder that causes thrombocytopenia (decreased platelet numbers in the blood) primarily due to the presence of antiplatelet autoantibodies. Anti-D therapy (treatment with an antibody against the Rhesus-D factor on erythrocytes) has been proven to ameliorate ITP but as a human-derived product, it is limited in quantity and carries the potential risk of transferring emerging pathogens. Additionally, the US Food and Drug Administration has issued a black box warning for potentially serious adverse effects in ITP patients, including anemia, fever and/or chills. Therefore, there is incentive present for developing a safe and effective recombinant replacement that mimics the therapeutic activity of anti-D. Thus far, monoclonal anti-D antibodies have only had limited clinical success and better knowledge of its mechanism is required to accelerate the development of anti-D alternatives. This thesis documents studies that evaluated multiple anti- erythrocyte antibodies (as surrogates for anti-D) in murine models of ITP in order to provide insight regarding their mechanism(s) of action. Results indicate that adverse events such as anemia and temperature flux, which can be indicative of inflammatory activity, are not required for ITP amelioration; thus demonstrating that certain toxicities associated with anti-D therapy are independent of therapeutic activity and have the potential to be minimized when developing ii and/or screening synthetic alternatives.

  • History of Clinical Transplantation
    World J. Surg. 2.:&.759-782.2000 DOl: 10.1007/s00268001012':& History of Clinical Transplantation Thomas E. Starzl, M.D., Ph.D. Thomas E. Starzl Transplantation Institute. University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Falk Clinic. 4th Floor, 3601 Fifth Avenue. Pittsburgh. Pennsylvania 15213. USA Abstract. The emergence of transplantation has seen the development of to donor strain tissues was retained as the recipient animals grew increasingly potent immunosuppressive agents, progressively better to adult life, whereas normal reactivity evolved to third party methods of tissue and organ preservation. refinements in histocompati­ grafts and other kinds of antigens. bility matching. and numerous innovations in surgical techniques. Such efforts in combination ultimately made it possible to successfully engraft This was not the first demonstration that tolerance could be all of the organs and bone marrow cells in humans. At a more fundamen· deliberately produced. Analogous to the neonatal transplant tal level, however, the transplantation enterprise hinged on two seminal model. Traub [6] showed in 1936 that the lymphocytic choriomen­ turning points. The first was the recognition by Billingham. Brent, and Medawar in 1953 that it was possible to induce chimerism·associated igitis virus (LCMV) persisted after transplacental infection of the neonatal tolerance deliberately. This discovery escalated over the next 15 embryo from the mother or. alternatively. by injection into new­ years to the first successful bone marrow transplantations in humans in born mice. Howevt!r, when the mice were infected as adults. the 1968. The second turning point was the demonstration during the early virus was eliminated immunologicully. Similar observations had 1960s that canine and human organ allografts could self·induce tolerance been made in experimental tumor models.
