Brief Description of the Institution The University of Girona (UdG) is located in Girona city and is part of the Catalan public university system since 1992. The UdG, deeply rooted in Catalonia and the Catalan culture, is one of the primary economic and cultural motors of the region. At the same time, it pursues a vocation of universality and openness to all traditions and cultures. UdG is a public institution devoted to excellence in teaching and research and to participating in the progress and development of society through the creation, transmission, dissemination and criticism of knowledge related to the sciences, technology, the humanities, the social sciences and the arts. In the last 10 years, the UdG has participated into more than 160 European Projects, including 5 ERC projects. Research Group: The ‘Microbiology of Intestinal Disease’ research group is small group (two professors and one associate professor) which was established in 2004 in collaboration with the gastroenterologist team at the Hospital Universitari Dr. Josep Trueta of Girona. This group has focused its research on studying the changes in gut microbiota composition related to different metabolic and intestinal diseases and on the study of Escherichia coli populations, in particular the adherent-invasive E. coli pathotype (AIEC). 3.

  • Gerhard, Roberto (1896-1970) : His Writings
    Gerhard, Roberto (1896-1970) : His Writings Although Roberto Gerhard (1896-1970) never authored a monograph himself, holding semi-regular reviewer posts at the beginning of his career, he left a significant corpus of writings in the form of contributions to newspapers, journals and magazines, as well as extensive correspondence. His broadcasts for the BBC on musical topics between the late 1940s and the mid-1960s can also be regarded as intimately connected to his writings: together, they offer further insight into how Gerhard’s thoughts on his own work, on musical modernism and on national tradition developed through his studies in Berlin and Vienna under Arnold Schoenberg (1923-1928), his early career in pre-Civil War Barcelona (1928-1936), his political involvement in favour of the Spanish Second Republic during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) and, finally, his exile in Cambridge (1940-1970), where he went from writing incidental music for the BBC and ballet and theatre companies to receiving worldwide recognition as a serialist composer and pioneer of electroacoustic music from the mid-1950s. Even though Gerhard’s education under Schoenberg is most commonly cited and remembered, the former was equally proud of having studied musicology and composition in his early twenties with Felip Pedrell (1841-1922), regarded as the father of modern Spanish musicology, and a pioneer of Spanish and Catalan musical nationalism. These formative experiences likely determined what would become the two dominant themes in Gerhard’s writings throughout his life: first, musical modernism, particularly as advanced by the Second Viennese School and its successors, concerning not only twelve-tone technique in itself, but also the changing relationships between the composer and society; second, the musical past of Spain and Catalonia, and the role it should play in contemporary music.

In this study, we investigate the role of the Wnt antagonist, secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (SFRP1), in promoting adipogenesis in vitro and adipose tissue expansion in vivo. Methods: We use a combination of human and murine, in vivo and in vitro models of adipogenesis, adipose tissue expansion and obesity-related metabolic syndrome to profile the involvement of SFRP1. Results: SFRP1 is expressed in both murine and human mature adipocytes. The expression of SFRP1 is induced during in vitro adipogenesis, and SFRP1 is preferentially expressed in mature adipocytes in human adipose tissue.

  • The Main Military Medical Organisations in the Rebel Army, 1936-19391
    The main military medical… (Págs. 41-66) Joan Serrallonga The main military medical organisations in the rebel army, 1936-19391. Los organismos centrales de sanidad militar en el ejército sublevado, 1936-1939. Joan Serrallonga, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, España E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: For an accurate study of the 1936-1939 Spanish Civil War, it is important to analyze military health care. The reshuffle of the Military Me- dical Corps during the Republic reduced its staff and reinforced it. Medical Corps officers were divided after the military uprising of 1936. Rebels kept organic continuity, completely centralized around the Main Headquarters and the Board of Services. Healthcare network was rebuilt from military di- visions and invested with an attractive mobile structure. Medical troops were increased by urgent measures. The appointment of civil doctors and pharmacists was the most effective and lasting one. New military doctors would obtain good jobs in the first post war period. Keywords: Spanish Army, Military Medical Corps, Spanish Civil War, Mi- litary hospitals. Resumen: Para estudiar la Guerra Civil española de 1936-1939 resulta cru- cial evaluar la asistencia sanitaria militar. La remodelación del Cuerpo de Sanidad militar durante la República redujo los efectivos y ganó en firmeza. Al producirse la sublevación militar de 1936 los mandos de Sanidad Militar se dividieron. En línea de continuidad orgánica los sublevados centralizaron por completo este Cuerpo entorno a la Jefatura de Servicios y la Junta Fa- cultativa e implementaron urgentes medidas para conseguir efectivos. La asimilación de médicos y farmacéuticos civiles será la más efectiva y de mayor alcance.

    CardioPulse 4543 doi:10.1093/eurheartj/ehaa655 Josep Trueta and Renal Sympathetic Activation The 80-year evolution from defining Renal Sympathetic Activation to Renal Denervation (RDN) Josep Trueta, MD, was an innovative thinker whose advances in wound Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/article/41/48/4543/5912222 by guest on 28 September 2021 care saved the lives of thousands of patients during the Spanish Civil war and World War II. He was also one of the first orthopaedic pio- neers to recognize the relationship between blood and bone. Trueta was a polymath with wide-ranging interests and one of his innovative studies during World War II contributed greatly to both our knowl- edge of the renal circulation and the pathogenesis of hypertension. Trueta was first and foremost a Catalan. He was born in Barcelona into a family with a long tradition of medical and military service.1 His appointment as chief surgeon and professor of surgery at the University of Barcelona coincided with the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. He had the dubious distinction of witnessing and treating the sequelae of history’s first mass aerial attacks on a civilian popula- tion.1,2 As an inventive trauma surgeon, Trueta’s two major contribu- tions encompassed the concept of mass casualty evacuation/care and the publication of his classic paper, ‘The treatment of war fractures by the closed-plaster method’.2,3 Shortly after his arrival at Oxford, Trueta was invited to work in the newly furbished laboratory of Sir Howard Florey at the William Dunn School of Pathology.

Atkinson Edited and annotated by Ann L Mackenzie Chapter 3 1942–: One Man’s War Another decade: 1942. Too young for the first war, too old to serve in the second, my niche was to be one of the team of regional specialists assembled in Oxford by Dr. Arnold Toynbee, of A Study of History fame,1 for what was to become the Foreign Office Research Department.2 Odd, I remember thinking, that the Foreign Office had muddled through for so long without one. Housed in Balliol, we covered the world, my slice of it Spain, Portugal and their overseas dependencies. Every morning at 11, meeting in the Senior Common Room, we reviewed the day’s events, the directions in which the war was heading, the shifting areas of research interest. Our immediate material was the world’s press—my coverage some twenty Spanish, a dozen Portuguese, titles—which was read under a microscope and condensed into a weekly review for circulation to government departments.
