Standing Advisory Committee for Medical Research in the British Caribbean
1* PAN AMERICAN HEALTH FOURTH MEETING ORGANIZATION 14-18 JUNE 1965 ADVISORY COMMITTEE WASHINGTON, D.C. ON MEDICAL RESEARCH REPORT ON THE STANDING ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH IN THE BRITISH CARIBBEAN Ref: RES 4/1 15 April 1965 PAN AMERICAN HEALTH ORGANIZATION Pan American Sanitary Bureau, Regional Office of the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION WASHINGTON, D.C. RES 4/1 Report on THE STANDING ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR MEDICAL RESEARCH IN THE BRITISH CARIBBEAN (SAC)* Origin and Development After World War I, it became the policy of the British Government to decentralize research as far as possible, and to encourage territorial governments to share with the United Kingdom in the responsibility for planning, administering and financing research. With this object regional Medical Research Councils were set up in East and West Africa. At that time all the territories concerned were colonies. The East African Council represented Kenya, Tanganyika and Uganda, the West African Nigeria, Gold Coast, Sierra Leone and Gambia. All these countries are now independent, and the West African Council has ceased to exist, but the East African one continues as an inter-territorial body responsible to a Council of Ministers. In the Caribbean region conditions were different; there was a much larger number of separate governmental units, all very smallcompared with those of Africa, and, with few exceptions, poor. It was felt that, at least in the early stages, it would not be reasonable to expect these territories to finance research themselves out of their slender resources. Therefore it seemed advisable as a first step to establish a committee to advise the British Government on the needs for medical research in the region, and it was hoped that later it would develop into an autonomous council with executive powers, like the councils in Africa. -

Recent Deformation Around Domuyo Volcano, Argentina Inferred from Time-Series Analyses of Insar Image
SVC45-22 JpGU-AGU Joint Meeting 2020 Recent Deformation around Domuyo Volcano, Argentina Inferred from Time-series Analyses of InSAR Image *Satoshi Miura1, Micaela Colavita1, Yu Morishita2 1. Graduate School of Science, Tohoku University, 2. Geospatial Information Authority of Japan Domuyo volcano, located in the southern Central Andes of Argentina (36°37’S-70°26’W), is a Plio-Pleistocene dome complex hosting at least 14 dacitic lava domes (https://volcano.si.edu/ volcano.cfm?vn=357067) and other monogenetic basaltic centers (Astort et al., 2019). It occupies a retroarc position and can be found in the northernmost region of Cordillera del Viento (36°35’ to 36° 45’S), a N-S trending basement block crossed and rise by the Cortaderas lineament which is believed to exert a major structural control for the Neogene-to-Quaternary tectonic processes of the area (Galleto et al., 2018). With a height of 4,702 m the volcano constitutes the highest mountain in the Argentinian Patagonia and is related to an intense geothermal activity field that has been described as a fault controlled system associate with graben-like structures and shoshonitic volcanism developed under extensional regime during the Quaternary (Galleto et al., 2018). Without any historical eruption recorded this volcano was considered dormant, but the recent geophysical analysis has demonstrated unrest ongoing at the volcano. According to Astort et al. (2019), it has been growing at a rate of 12 cm/yr, calculated from the InSAR data. Along with seismic, gravimetric and morphometric data, they studied the deformation around the volcano using Sentinel-1 InSAR images from both ascending and descending orbits, within the 2014-2018 period of time. -

Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Fire in the Tropical World*
Proceedings: 6th Tall Timbers Fire Ecology Conference 1967 Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Fire in the Tropical World* ROBERT B. BATCHELDER Department of Geograpby Boston University F IRE HAS a long history of occurrence in the tropics, and its effects upon the physical and cultural environment have been profound. For various reasons, the frequency of occur rence of accidental fires prior to man's use of fire is believed to have been low, and the area subject to devastation limited. It is known that the areal distribution of humid tropical forests during the early Pleistocene was much greater than at present. Combustibility of such forests must have been very low because of the prevailing per humid forest microclimate, and fires once ignited would have had difficulty in spreading. It may be assumed therefore, that widespread burning would occur largely in geographic areas supporting grasses and open dry forest where the occurrence of an ecological dry period of sufficient duration and intensity would permit dessi- • This paper presents part of a more complete investigation into tropical fire sponsored by the U.

It must be remembered, however, that Pleistocene grass and brush lands were much less extensive than at present and probably occurred as enclaves in the extensive dense forest. -
Power and Politics in Venezuelan Higher Education Reform, 1999-2012
Power and Politics in Venezuelan Higher Education Reform, 1999-2012 by Elliot Johann Storm A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Elliot Johann Storm 2016 Power and Politics in Venezuelan Higher Education Reform, 1999-2012 Elliot Johann Storm Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2016 Abstract This dissertation explains why Venezuelan state and government elites were able to successfully design, adopt, and implement some higher education reforms but not others during the presidencies of Hugo Chávez (1999-2012). Conceptualizing universities as political institutions that occupy a liminal position within the borderlands of state and society, and using an approach that emphasizes the relational and procedural nature of political change, I compare four higher education initiatives advanced by Venezuelan reformers: a series of universalization programs, the 2001 Organic Education Law, the 2009 Organic Education Law, and the 2010 University Education Law. My analysis reveals that the adoption and implementation of these initiatives primarily depended upon how the distribution of institutional autonomy and capacity between the state and the oppositional university sector conditioned the strategic choices of key actors. In the case of universalization reform, actors within the executive branch were enabled by considerable autonomy relative to oppositional forces in the agenda-setting, -
The Marine Mollusca of Suriname (Dutch Guiana) Holocene and Recent
THE MARINE MOLLUSCA OF SURINAME (DUTCH GUIANA) HOLOCENE AND RECENT Part II. BIVALVIA AND SCAPHOPODA by G. O. VAN REGTEREN ALTENA Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden "The student must know something of syste- matic work. This is populary supposed to be a dry-as-dust branch of zoology. In fact, the systematist may be called the dustman of biol- ogy, for he performs a laborious and frequently thankless task for his fellows, and yet it is one which is essential for their well-being and progress".

List of corrections of Part I 93 5. Plates 94 6. Addendum 100 1. INTRODUCTION, SYSTEMATIC SURVEY AND PAGE REFERENCES In the first part of this work, published in 1969, I gave a general intro- duction to the Suriname marine Mollusca ; in this second part the Bivalvia and Scaphopoda are treated. The system (and frequently also the nomen- clature) of the Bivalvia are those employed in the "Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, (N) Mollusca 6, Part I, Bivalvia, Volume 1 and 2". These volumes were issued in 1969 and contain the most modern system of the Bivalvia. For the Scaphopoda the system of Thiele (1935) is used. Since I published in 1968 a preliminary list of the marine Bivalvia of Suriname, several additions and changes have been made. I am indebted to Messrs. D. J. Green, R. H. Hill and P. G. E. F. Augustinus for having provided many new coastal records for several species. -

O. VAN REGTEREN ALTENA Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie With 3 plates Vernhout (1914) was the first to publish an account of the land and fresh- water Mollusca of Suriname. In this publication he assembled not only the older literature in which species were mentioned from Suriname, but also he named the Mollusca collected by seven expeditions and some travellers, and included in his paper the material which W. C. van Heurn collected during his trip in 1911. So he laid a sound basis for future investigations. In the present paper only the land Prosobranchia are treated. On this matter, so far as I know, only one paper has been published since 1914. This paper (Altena, 1960) mentioned Lucidella lirata (Pfeiffer) from Tamba- redjo and Sidoredjo in the Saramacca district. The Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie received specimens from Suri- name from many persons to whom I am much indebted for their cooperation. Thanks are also due to Mr. H. E. Coomans who sent me the specimens on loan, which were collected in 1926 by D. L. Fernandes. Here follows a list which mentions in chronological sequence the collectors with the months and the years in which they collected, together with the abbreviations under which they are mentioned in the text.

Egypt 2021 28 3 4 Letter from Cairo, Issue 36th In Egypt, Hands of the World Compete & Fraternize In 2021, handball teams of 32 countries meet in hospitable Egypt from 13 to 31 January to vie for the title of world champions at the 27th IHF World Men’s Handball Championship. There is no doubt that Egypt’s hosting of this major sporting event has im- portant implications for Egypt, its people and the world. This is the largest global sporting event ever held anywhere in the world since the covid-19 pandemic, a year ago. The organization of this competi- tion in such circumstances reflects the extent of Egyptian capabilities in all areas of health, logistics, security and sports under these exceptional cir- cumstances. Undoubtedly, the international consensus to convene the championship at this time, despite all the current realities around the world, confirms confi- dence in Egypt’s success in dealing with the pandemic at all levels, and in the ability of the State, Egyptian people and the youth of the world participating in the championship, to come up with the 2021 edition in the best form, to the enjoyment of hundreds of millions of handball fans at a time when all the peoples of the world need moments of hope, pleasure and fair competi- tion after a very difficult year for everyone. -
