  • Activation-Induced Deaminase and Its Splice Variants Associate with Trisomy 12 in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
    Annals of Hematology (2019) 98:423–435 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00277-018-3520-5 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Activation-induced deaminase and its splice variants associate with trisomy 12 in chronic lymphocytic leukemia Kristina Zaprazna1 & Kamila Reblova1 & Veronika Svobodova1 & Lenka Radova 1 & Vojtech Bystry1 & Jiri Baloun1 & Kristina Durechova2 & Nikola Tom1 & Tomas Loja1 & Martina Buresova1,2 & Kamila Stranska1,2 & Alexandra Oltova2 & Michael Doubek1,2 & Michael L. Atchison3 & Martin Trbusek2 & Jitka Malcikova1,2 & Sarka Pospisilova1,2 Received: 20 May 2018 /Accepted: 9 October 2018 /Published online: 27 October 2018 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is a mutator enzyme essential for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) during effective adaptive immune responses. Its aberrant expression and activity have been detected in lymphomas, leukemias, and solid tumors. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) increased expression of alternatively spliced AID variants has been documented. We used real-time RT-PCR to quantify the expression of AID and its alternatively spliced transcripts (AIDΔE4a, AIDΔE4, AIDivs3, and AIDΔE3E4) in 149 CLL patients and correlated this expression to prognostic markers including recurrent chromosomal aberrations, the presence of complex karyotype, mutation status of the immunoglob- ulin heavy chain variable gene, and recurrent mutations. We report a previously unappreciated association between higher AID transcript levels and trisomy of chromosome 12. Functional analysis of AID splice variants revealed loss of their activity with respect to SHM, CSR, and induction of double-strand DNA breaks. In silico modeling provided insight into the molecular interactions and structural dynamics of wild-type AID and a shortened AID variant closely resembling AIDΔE4, confirming its loss-of-function phenotype.

  • Acquisition in a Large It Organization
    Information & Security: An International Journal Agata Szydelko, vol.38, 2017, 71-76 https://doi.org/10.11610/isij.3805 ACQUISITION IN A LARGE IT ORGANIZATION Agata SZYDELKO Abstract: This article explores the background, challenges and paradoxes of the NATO IT acquisitions, highlights the drivers of change in NATO procurement pro- cesses and procedures, and explains the underlying evolutionary nature of this change. It provides comparative analysis of acquisition models used by NATO and its agen- cies, emphasising the importance of agility and adaptiveness to changing circum- stances. Keywords: acquisition, IT, organization, agile, change, evolution. Introduction The IT acquisitions performed on behalf of the 29 NATO nations are key elements of NATO’s defence and deterrence posture. Transparent and unbiased procurements, underpinning delivery of NATO capabilities and services, require a set of proper frameworks, policies, procedures, processes and people to turn the requirements into deliverables. The world is evolving – and so should NATO IT acquisitions; but do they really evolve in an adequate manner? This article provides an overview of past and current challenges and solutions and outlines expected developments in NATO acquisition of IT technologies and systems. Evolution of NATO IT acquisition In 1996, NATO revised its procedures for acquisition of commonly funded infra- structure under the NATO Security Investment Programme (NSIP). The procedures promoted full and open competition—International Competitive Bidding (ICB)—as the default procurement method, with the lowest compliant bid as the evaluation methodology, and were geared primarily to the acquisition of static IT infrastructure. Not surprisingly, this construct did not survive contact with real-time NATO opera- tions triggered by the crisis in the Balkans in the late 1990’s.

  • Composer-Performer Collaborations in New Compositions: Suggestions for Change Versus Authorship
    DOI: 10.32063/0601 COMPOSER-PERFORMER COLLABORATIONS IN NEW COMPOSITIONS: SUGGESTIONS FOR CHANGE VERSUS AUTHORSHIP Agata Kubiak-Kenworthy Born in Poland, Agata Kubiak-Kenworthy started her music education at the age of 6. After graduating from Stanislaw Moniuszko Music College, she moved to London and continued her studies with the renowned professor, Stephane Tran-Ngoc. Agata completed her BMus at London College of Music with a First Class Honours in 2011. She then returned to LCM to continue her studies at a postgraduate level, gaining a distinction in 2014. In late 2019, she was awarded a PhD for her thesis: ‘Creativity in new music for strings: Under which circumstances does creative change occur in different types of performer-composer collaborations’. Agata has pursued an active performing career since graduating from her BMus. She has toured Europe and Asia with the Avizo String Quartet, I Maestri Orchestra and the Symphonic Orchestra of India. She plays 2nd violin in Konvalia String Quartet with which she performs new music regularly. She is also a jazz singer, she writes and performs with her own jazz group. She was a finalist in the Riga Jazz Stage international jazz competition and was included in top 20 female jazz singers by the European jazz magazine Jazz Forum. Abstract: Composer-Performer Collaborations in New Music: suggestions for change versus authorship Composer-performer collaboration is a phenomenon particularly associated with new music performance. This unique social situation often creates the opportunity for an artistic dialogue that would not occur otherwise. New music performance has been a rich source for music academia but, as stated by Fitch and Heyde (2007): ‘Very little attention has been paid to the performer’s potentially significant mediation between composer and piece’.

  • Model Music Curriculum: Key Stages 1 to 3 Non-Statutory Guidance for the National Curriculum in England
    Model Music Curriculum: Key Stages 1 to 3 Non-statutory guidance for the national curriculum in England March 2021 Foreword If it hadn’t been for the classical music played before assemblies at my primary school or the years spent in school and church choirs, I doubt that the joy I experience listening to a wide variety of music would have gone much beyond my favourite songs in the UK Top 40. I would have heard the wonderful melodies of Carole King, Elton John and Lennon & McCartney, but would have missed out on the beauty of Handel, Beethoven and Bach, the dexterity of Scott Joplin, the haunting melody of Clara Schumann’s Piano Trio in G, evocations of America by Dvořák and Gershwin and the tingling mysticism of Allegri’s Miserere. The Model Music Curriculum is designed to introduce the next generation to a broad repertoire of music from the Western Classical tradition, and to the best popular music and music from around the world. This curriculum is built from the experience of schools that already teach a demanding and rich music curriculum, produced by an expert writing team led by ABRSM and informed by a panel of experts – great teachers and musicians alike – and chaired by Veronica Wadley. I would like to thank all involved in producing and contributing to this important resource. It is designed to assist rather than to prescribe, providing a benchmark to help teachers, school leaders and curriculum designers make sure every music lesson is of the highest quality. In setting out a clearly sequenced and ambitious approach to music teaching, this curriculum provides a roadmap to introduce pupils to the delights and disciplines of music, helping them to appreciate and understand the works of the musical giants of the past, while also equipping them with the technical skills and creativity to compose and perform.

  • Culture Due Diligence Based on HP/Compaq Merger Case Study
    Journal of Intercultural Management Vol. 1, No. 1, April 2009, pp. 64–81 Agata Stachowicz-Stanusch Politechnika Śląska Culture Due Diligence based on HP/Compaq Merger case study Of course the merger was a success. Neither company could have lost that much money on its own. Steve Case, Former Chairman of the Board AOL/Time Warner 1. Introduction From the smallest businesses to the world’s largest corporate titans, the search for synergy often leads people to seek new markets and new partners. The vast majority of these efforts are driven by business factors, but according to numerous experts, they succeed or fail more often because of cultural factors than for any other reason. As a result, the organization that understands its core values is much more likely to reach the kind of growth and success that nearly all businesses seek [Gallangher 2003, p. 165]. Mergers and acquisitions, or “M&A” as they are known in the trade, serve as a prime example of how intangible aspects such as corporate culture can hold sway over billions of dollars and thousands of careers. When done well, they have the potential to grow markets, build on complementary strengths, and eliminate inefficiency. But because they involve human beings, it is impossible to predict their success on a balance sheet solely through tangible factors such as infrastructure, head count, or market share. What ultimately matters in an acquisition is what happens in the hearts and minds of the people who remain with the new organization and what culture these formerly distinct entities- choose to build while moving forward [Gallangher 2003, p.

  • Notes from the Underground: a Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music
    Notes From The Underground: A Cultural, Political, and Aesthetic Mapping of Underground Music. Stephen Graham Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Signed: …………………………………………………. Date:…………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The term ‗underground music‘, in my account, connects various forms of music-making that exist largely outside ‗mainstream‘ cultural discourse, such as Drone Metal, Free Improvisation, Power Electronics, and DIY Noise, amongst others. Its connotations of concealment and obscurity indicate what I argue to be the music‘s central tenets of cultural reclusion, political independence, and aesthetic experiment. In response to a lack of scholarly discussion of this music, my thesis provides a cultural, political, and aesthetic mapping of the underground, whose existence as a coherent entity is being both argued for and ‗mapped‘ here. Outlining the historical context, but focusing on the underground in the digital age, I use a wide range of interdisciplinary research methodologies , including primary interviews, musical analysis, and a critical engagement with various pertinent theoretical sources. In my account, the underground emerges as a marginal, ‗antermediated‘ cultural ‗scene‘ based both on the web and in large urban centres, the latter of whose concentration of resources facilitates the growth of various localised underground scenes. I explore the radical anti-capitalist politics of many underground figures, whilst also examining their financial ties to big business and the state(s). This contradiction is critically explored, with three conclusions being drawn. First, the underground is shown in Part II to be so marginal as to escape, in effect, post- Fordist capitalist subsumption.

  • The Shape of Music to Come: Organizational, Ideational, and Creative Change in the North American Music Industry, 1990-2009 By
    The Shape Of Music To Come: Organizational, Ideational, And Creative Change In The North American Music Industry, 1990-2009 by Kimberly Elizabeth de Laat A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology University of Toronto © Copyright by Kimberly Elizabeth de Laat 2017 The Shape Of Music To Come: Organizational, Ideational, And Creative Change In The North American Music Industry, 1990-2009 Kimberly Elizabeth de Laat Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This dissertation examines the relationship between occupational roles, and creativity, uncertainty, and change in cultural industries. Over the course of three chapters, it uses regression, discourse, and content analysis, as well as in-depth interviews with professional songwriters and music industry personnel to analyze collaborative dynamics and collective sensemaking throughout the transition to digital production in the North American music industry. The first chapter develops meaning-centric measures of creativity to analyze how collaborative strategies shifted throughout the transition to digital production. It demonstrates empirically that musical diversity and innovation operate as countervailing forces – innovative forms can be devoid of diverse content – and calls attention to how limited examinations of cultural production are if the outcomes of interest are misspecified. Failing to attend to artistic form and content renders cultural objects no different from non-cultural phenomena, and leads to impoverished interpretations of institutional dynamics. Chapter 2 identifies how discourse is used to assess new technology and make sense of one’s place within a changing organizational landscape. It demonstrates that the patterned use of analogies and metaphors inform sensemaking and sensegiving efforts based on one’s occupational role.

  • AGATA PHASE 2 - AGATA-FRANCE Coll
    AGATA PHASE 2 - AGATA-FRANCE coll. June 2019 Nuclear physics is one of the most challenging fields of subatomic physics. This is because the properties of the nucleus arise from the combined action of the strong and electromagnetic forces acting between many elementary particles. Establishing how nuclear behaviours emerge from the basic properties of Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD) is one the goals of modern nuclear physics. To reach this goal, the experimental approach is to probe this emergence in nuclei with a different ratio of number of neutrons to protons (isospin=N/Z), or with different masses (A) or in a given nucleus at different temperatures (E*) and angular momentum (I) or in nuclear matter with varying densities… This de facto implies studying different regions of the Segré chart in different experimental conditions, which requires in turn to take data at different accelerator facilities using the best adapted reaction mechanism and observables. One of the most sensitive probes of the state of a nucleus is its electromagnetic radiation, especially when the emitted photons are detected in High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detectors, which so far, hold the record in terms of energy resolution. Tracking arrays based on HPGe crystals mark a major advance in the development of gamma-ray detector devices, as they can withstand large counting rates, provide unprecedented Doppler correction capabilities, enhanced polarization sensitivity and gains of up to 3 orders of magnitude in sensitivity compared to arrays based on Compton-suppressed HPGe detectors. Strengthened by 2 decades of a successful collaboration around the EUROBALL gamma- ray multi-detector array and successful R&D within the auspices of the 5th framework of the European Union, several European countries established in 2003 a new collaboration called AGATA (Advanced GAmma Tracking Array).
