Nacional IV, Km. 396 A 14071 Córdoba https://www.uco.es/ucopress/index.php/es/ [email protected] TÍTULO DE LA TESIS: CARACTERIZACIÓN Y EFICIENCIA DE AGROECOSISTEMAS PARA UNA PRODUCCIÓN DE CERDOS IBÉRICOS MÁS SUSTENTABLE DOCTORANDO: JAVIER GARCÍA GUDIÑO INFORME RAZONADO DE LOS DIRECTORES DE LA TESIS La tesis doctoral se ha llevado a cabo en el marco establecido por el proyecto “Nuevas estrategias y metodologías nutricionales, reproductivas y de la eficiencia del sistema para la mejora de la sostenibilidad socioeconómica y ambiental de explotaciones de cerdos Ibéricos de elevada calidad” (RTA2013-00063-C03) financiado por INIA, y el programa de formación de investigadores en agroalimentación en los centros de investigación agraria y alimentaria INIA-CCAA (FPI-INIA) que financia una beca predoctoral al amparo del mencionado proyecto. La tesis doctoral hace una aportación significativa al conocimiento de la producción porcina ibérica de la dehesa desde un enfoque integrado en el que se combina la sostenibilidad de los sistemas de producción con la competitividad de los productos derivados, así como las preferencias de los consumidores. En la memoria de tesis el doctorando aborda mediante diferentes instrumentos metodológicos algunos de los principales problemas de la producción porcina de la dehesa, para después vincular los resultados con el comportamiento del consumidor y conseguir una visión más completa de lo que es estratégico para el sector. El doctorando ha realizado un importante esfuerzo académico que le permite aportar resultados significativos sobre el agroecosistema evaluado, los impactos y usos ganaderos observados, y el papel que el consumidor puede desempeñar como garante de la conservación. Debido a la variedad de temas incluidos en la tesis, a lo largo de la realización de ésta, el doctorando ha adquirido las habilidades y competencias necesarias propias del grado de doctor, quedando plenamente capacitado para identificar, planificando y ejecutando tareas de investigación, analizando los datos y resolviendo problemas de la producción animal mediante métodos de investigación y comunicar los resultados en los medios habituales de la ciencia. Como parte de su plan de formación, destaca la Estancia de 3 meses en INRA-PEGASE en Saint-Gilles (Francia) centrada en la evaluación medioambiental de los sistemas de producción extensivos del cerdo Ibérico a través de LCA. Además de los artículos que forman parte de la memoria de tesis doctoral, la tesis ha dado lugar a los siguientes trabajos: ARTÍCULOS CIENTÍFICOS REVISADOS POR PARES: Font-i-Furnols, M; García-Gudiño, J; Izquierdo, M; Brun, A; Gispert, M; Blanco- Penedo, I; Hernández-García, F.I. “Non-destructive evaluation of carcass and ham traits and meat quality assessment applied to early and late immunocastrated Iberian pig” Animal 2021, 100189. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.animal.2021.100189 PUBLICACIONES TÉCNICAS: García-Gudiño, J; Font-i-Furnols, M; Brun, A; Gispert, M; Perea-Muñoz, J; Blanco, I; “Visión de los consumidores: ¿puede cambiar la elección de un alimento su modo de producción?” 2017.

  • Further Evidence of a Possible Correlation Between the Severity of Covid-19 and BCG Immunization

Further Evidence of a Possible Correlation Between the Severity of Covid-19 and BCG Immunization Serge Dolgikh1[0000-0001-5929-8954] Abstract. In this work we observe a number of cases supporting the possible correlation between the administration of BCG tuberculosis vaccine and the se- verity of Covid-19 effects in the population proposed in the earlier works [1]. Based on the early preliminary analysis of the publicly available data we propose a number of arguments and observations providing further support for the corre- lation hypothesis and make an observation that the effectiveness of the protection effect of BCG immunization, if confirmed, may depend to a significant extent on the age of administration, with the early age inoculation more effective for the lasting protection. Keywords: Infectious epidemiology, Covid-19 1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose A significant variation in the patterns of onset of Covid-19 epidemics across jurisdic- tions has been noticed previously. Quite pronounced is the difference between the “av- alanche” scenario seen in Italy, Spain, France and USA on one hand, and the “mild” one (Taiwan, Germany, many East European jurisdictions and others) on the other. While multiple factors certainly play role in these variations, some can be more influ- ential on the overall dynamics of the impacts of the epidemics.

  • Estimating Average Alcohol Consumption in the Population Using Multiple Sources: the Case of Spain Luis Sordo1,2,3, Gregorio Barrio4*, María J
    Sordo et al. Population Health Metrics (2016) 14:21 DOI 10.1186/s12963-016-0090-4 RESEARCH Open Access Estimating average alcohol consumption in the population using multiple sources: the case of Spain Luis Sordo1,2,3, Gregorio Barrio4*, María J. Bravo1,2, Joan R. Villalbí5, Albert Espelt2,5, Montserrat Neira6 and Enrique Regidor2,3 Abstract Background: National estimates on per capita alcohol consumption are provided regularly by various sources and may have validity problems, so corrections are needed for monitoring and assessment purposes. Our objectives were to compare different alcohol availability estimates for Spain, to build the best estimate (actual consumption), characterize its time trend during 2001–2011, and quantify the extent to which other estimates (coverage) approximated actual consumption. Methods: Estimates were: alcohol availability from the Spanish Tax Agency (Tax Agency availability), World Health Organization (WHO availability) and other international agencies, self-reported purchases from the Spanish Food Consumption Panel, and self-reported consumption from population surveys. Analyses included calculating: between-agency discrepancy in availability, multisource availability (correcting Tax Agency availability by underestimation of wine and cider), actual consumption (adjusting multisource availability by unrecorded alcohol consumption/purchases and alcohol losses), and coverage of selected estimates. Sensitivity analyses were undertaken. Time trends were characterized by joinpoint regression. Results: Between-agency

  • Multiple Intelligences
    Multiple Intelligences A framework of the bilingual secondary schools in the Community of Madrid and a perspective of dance to help build up other areas by Jean Pierre Daquila Supervisor: Leticia Carrasco Reija 2014 Multiple Intelligences A framework of the bilingual secondary schools in the Community of Madrid and a perspective of dance to help build up other areas by Jean Pierre Daquila Supervisor: Leticia Carrasco Reija The University of Alcalá de Henares Instituto Franklin de Investigación en Estudios Norteamericanos PhD dissertation Madrid, Madrid, Spain 2014 © 2014 Jean Pierre Ribeiro Daquila All rights reserved Abstract This research aims to explore how Secondary Bilingual Schools in the Community of Madrid develop their work and whether they make use of the Theory of Multiple Intelligences as a tool to facilitate students’ learning. These intelligences are bodily- kinesthetic, musical, linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal and naturalist. Our work will focus on bodily kinesthetic intelligence. The first part of the study explores the work which has been carried out by teachers, students and language assistants. To do so, we have administered questionnaires and observed classes. The second part of the research extends the investigation to find out if ballet dancers and flamenco dancers have a significant improvement in the domains of phonetics and chemistry when trained with the aid of dance. Both groups will be compared with the control group (a group of regular students, who will receive the same training through a traditional method). Finally, it is shown head teachers are not aware of MI and its benefits to the class. Although teachers sometimes rely on music and dance in their classes, the reason is merely to motivate students rather than knowledge about MI Theory.

  • Paradoxes of Gender Equality Policies and Domestic Working Conditions in Madrid
    Paradoxes of Gender Equality Policies and Domestic Working Conditions in Madrid Zabdi Salazar*, Dr.Blanco-Cano Abstract Madrid has experienced a significant integration of Latin American immigrant women in its domestic service labor market since 2005. The general sentiment among Madrileños is that the phenomenon benefits both Spanish working mothers and immigrant women, but despite the ILO’s (International Labour Organization) 2011 convention on expanding the rights of domestic workers, the implementation of such rights under Spanish law has fallen short. Current academic literature on the issue of migration focuses on immigration law, attitudes, and practices. It also examines the intersection of gender, race, age, and educational attainment. We explored paradoxes between the Spanish government’s goals of gender equality and some of the realities of domestic working conditions for Latin American women. Subsequently, we asked the question: Do gender equality policies of Madrid’s local government exclude and marginalize Latin American immigrant women in the domestic service sector or to what extent do they benefit such women? Through survey data, personal interviews with Latin American women in the domestic service sector, and a review of literature on gender equality theory, we found that the local government’s priorities on gender equality are contradictory and myopic, even purposely blind. Even though domestic workers report relative respect and economic gains, they experience the effects of inequality under the law and limited opportunities for advancement. Such findings warrant further investigation of gender equality policies and analyzing the extent of societal integration of Latin American women immigrants. Introduction Spain is a unique case study to analyze the immigration patterns of Latin American women in domestic service along the country’s demographics, economic pull and push factors, historical significance, human agency, and even gender equality policies (Ekelund, 2009).

The aim of this article is to explore the role of drugs in discourses discourse about immigration and to highlight the social implications of this. Twenty-two narrative interviews of analysis; native people in different districts of diverse cities of Valencia Community (Spain) were analysed substance abuse; according to a sociological discourse analysis model. Clear differentiation can be seen between the Spain; image of heroin addicts native to the districts themselves and the image of Latin-American marginalisation immigrants who abuse alcohol. While the former were described with empathy and pity as victims of social problems and drugs, immigrants were seen as intruders, threatening coexistence in the district. These differences in discourse can lead to different social practices and therefore to the marginalisation of immigrants using their alcohol abuse as an argument. Table of Contents 1. Introduction 2.

Likewise, Spain is incredibly rich in culture, with a wide array of languages, histories, cultures, and cuisines found throughout the nation. The sheer number and variety of Spanish wines and the incredible variety of cultures found in Spain may be daunting to the uninitiated. Thus, a guide to Spanish wine and culture, which not only details the two but links them, as well, may prove very helpful to the Spanish wine newcomer or perhaps even a sommelier. This thesis-guide was compiled through the research of the various Denominaciones de Origen of Spain, the history of Spain, the regions of Spain and their individual histories and cultures, and, of course, the many, many wines of Spain.

Place : .. Date : 2 PREFACE In today’s competitive environment, survival of the fittest is the new motto. That is why it’s necessary that the theoretical knowledge is accompanied by practical knowledge. In an MBA programmer, project study forms an important and an integral part. It helps in bridging the gap between the two main important aspects the theoretical as well practical knowledge. “Knowledge and Human Power are synonyms”, once said the great philosopher Francis Bacon. However based on the experience within today’s global markets, he would probably say, “The ability to capture, communicate & leverage knowledge to solve problems is human power”. This raises the question how exactly one can best capture, communicate & leverage knowledge, especially within world of system engineering.

  • Language Learning While Negotiating Race and Ethnicity Abroad
    Language Learning while Negotiating Race and Ethnicity Abroad Tracy Quan University of Delaware Abstract: Despite institutional and national focus on the importance of study abroad (SA) in U.S. higher education, the number of students of color abroad is still disproportionately low (Institute of International Education, 2017). Moreover, there is limited literature examining how race and ethnicity shapes experiences abroad, despite SA research highlighting how identity negotiation influences language learning in the SA context (Kinginger, 2013). This study presents the cases of two U.S. students — an Iranian-American and an African- and Mexican-American — studying in Spain. Through journals, interviews, surveys, and the Versant for Spanish oral test, this study illustrates how these participants rejected negative racial and ethnic positionings by withdrawing from host country nationals and eventually re-evaluating experiences to align with their desired identities. Both learners improved their Versant post-SA but their linguistic confidence in their Spanish language capabilities did not increase. The study concludes with implications for creating more inclusive and supportive SA programs. Study abroad has been heavily emphasized across higher education institutions, as evidenced by the Institute of International Education’s (IIE) initiative, Generation Study Abroad, which aims to double the number of U.S. students enrolled on a study abroad (SA) program by 2020. During the 2015-16 academic year, the number of U.S. students studying abroad in an academic program increased four percent over the previous year (Institute of International Education, 2017). The emphasis on study abroad stems from institutional and national goals to better prepare students for the global economy.
