Through the past ten years, the Centre has worked tirelessly towards its mission of reducing the burden of genetic diseases in the Arab World. Indeed, the field of study of human genetics has changed significantly in the past decade, and this is reflected in the shift in the activities of the Centre as well. Under the able patronage of HH Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai, and UAE Minister of Finance, the Centre has blossomed from being a local repository of information on genetic diseases to an international hub of resources pertaining to genetic disorders in the Arab World. This growth is in line with the UAE strategic plan implemented under the wise leadership of HH Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates, HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and the Ruler of Dubai, and Their Highnesses Members of the Supreme Council of Rulers of the Emirates. Foremost of the services offered by the Centre is the Catalogue for Transmission Genetics in Arabs (CTGA) Database, which has grown steadily to become the largest ethnic based database on genetic disorders in the World. Alongside this, the Centre has organized a series of scientific conferences and workshops which have attracted numerous scientists and researchers in this field. The 5th Pan Arab Human Genetics Conference is the latest addittion in this well-establishment tradition of conferences. I welcome all the participants of this conference to Dubai and hope you have a successful and enlightening conference meeting. Abdul Rahman Mohammed Al Owais 5 Prof. Najib Al-Khaja Dr. Mahmoud Taleb Al Ali President of the Conference Chairperson, Scientific Committee 6 MESSAGESMESSAGES It gives us great pleasure to welcome you to the 5th Pan Arab Human Genetics Conference (PAHGC). First of all, we would like to thank you for your continued interest and participation in the conference. Through the organization of the PAHGCs, the Centre for Arab Genomic Studies (CAGS) has successfully brought together diverse regional and international expertise on human medical genetics, and created a platform for discussion and mutual collaboration on issues relevant to researchers, medical professionals, and patients in this region. CAGS happens to be celebrating its tenth anniversary this year, and we are doubly proud to bring you the 5th edition of the conference in this special year with the theme ‘Genomics Into Healthcare’. The response and participation towards the PAHGC seems to grow with every edition. We have received over 170 abstracts for presentation at this conference. These presenters come not only from across the Arab World, but also from many other countries in Asia, Europe, and North America. The large number of abstracts received has, in fact, necessitated the use of parallel sessions, in order to accommodate the maximum number of presentations. The quality of these abstracts keeps increasing, and we are fairly confident in saying that this year’s conference program is capable of rivaling other international genetics conference. A constellation of prominent international and local geneticists will set the tone for the conference with their oral presentations. The program will see lectures on topics ranging from contemporary issues, such as cancer genetics and epigenetics to the role of genomics in public health. There will also be sessions dealing with the latest technologies in genetics research, such as next generation sequencing. In addition, each day of the conference will witness poster sessions, providing an opportunity for the participants to have a more detailed interaction with young researchers in this field. RD-Connect, a global project linking up databases, registries, and biobanks related to rare disease research, will host a special session highlighting their efforts in creating a central bioinformatics resource for rare disease researchers worldwide. Special thanks are due to the Organizing and Scientific Committees of the conference, who have worked hard to bring this conference to fruition. We would also like to thank the members of the Arab Council and Executive Board of CAGS, who have guided and helped us over the years. We hope that you enjoy and benefit from the many sessions that the conference has to offer, and find time to network with other participants of the conference. Najib Al-Khaja Mahmoud Taleb Al Ali 7 Dr. George P. Patrinos Scientific Director; The Golden Helix Foundation, London, United Kingdom 8 MESSAGESMESSAGES We are very pleased to welcome you to Dubai for the joint 5th Pan Arab Human Genetics Conference and the 2013 GOLDEN HELIX Symposium® with the theme “Genomics into Healthcare”. Genomic Medicine is expected to play a pivotal role in future medical practice. Recognizing the challenges that are emerging from the recent advances in genomics and their impact on human health, this joint conference features lectures by several internationally renowned scientists and covers all aspects of this field, including recent developments from deciphering the human genome, genomics of rare disorders, pharmacogenomics, next-generation sequencing, cancer and population genomics and the requirements to bring genomics in the clinic. The Golden Helix Symposia® are international high-profile scientific conferences in the field of genomic medicine, organized by the Golden Helix Foundation, a registered UK-charity aiming to catalyze collaborative research and to promote knowledge transfer and education in the area of genomic medicine. This year, the 2013 Golden Helix Symposium® will be held jointly with the 5th Pan-Arab Human Genetics Conference, the most prestigious scientific conference on human genetics in the Arab world that provides a platform for regional and international researchers and professionals in genetics to have a constructive dialogue and share their views. This joint conference is the result of a fruitful collaboration between scientists from the Center for Arab Genomic Studies and the Golden Helix Foundation and the generous support from H H Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Award for Medical Sciences.

These changes can have distinct effects on the levels of Check for updates high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol, which have different effects on human health4,5. However, the trends of HDL and non-HDL cholesterol levels over time have not been previously reported in a global analysis. Here we pooled 1,127 population-based studies that measured blood lipids in 102.6 million individuals aged 18 years and older to estimate trends from 1980 to 2018 in mean total, non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels for 200 countries. Globally, there was little change in total or non-HDL cholesterol from 1980 to 2018. This was a net effect of increases in low- and middle-income countries, especially in east and southeast Asia, and decreases in high-income western countries, especially those in northwestern Europe, and in central and eastern Europe. As a result, countries with the highest level of non-HDL cholesterol—which is a marker of cardiovascular risk— changed from those in western Europe such as Belgium, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Malta in 1980 to those in Asia and the Pacific, such as Tokelau, Malaysia, The Philippines and Thailand.

    POWER, COMMUNICATION, AND POLITICS IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES POWER, COMMUNICATION, POWER, COMMUNICATION, AND POLITICS IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES The Nordic countries are stable democracies with solid infrastructures for political dia- logue and negotiations. However, both the “Nordic model” and Nordic media systems are under pressure as the conditions for political communication change – not least due to weakened political parties and the widespread use of digital communication media. In this anthology, the similarities and differences in political communication across the Nordic countries are studied. Traditional corporatist mechanisms in the Nordic countries are increasingly challenged by professionals, such as lobbyists, a development that has consequences for the processes and forms of political communication. Populist polit- ical parties have increased their media presence and political influence, whereas the news media have lost readers, viewers, listeners, and advertisers. These developments influence societal power relations and restructure the ways in which political actors • Edited by: Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard Kristensen, & Lars Nord • Edited by: Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard communicate about political issues.

    Dutch. A linguistic history of Holland and Belgium Bruce Donaldson bron Bruce Donaldson, Dutch. A linguistic history of Holland and Belgium. Uitgeverij Martinus Nijhoff, Leiden 1983 Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/dona001dutc02_01/colofon.php © 2013 dbnl / Bruce Donaldson II To my mother Bruce Donaldson, Dutch. A linguistic history of Holland and Belgium VII Preface There has long been a need for a book in English about the Dutch language that presents important, interesting information in a form accessible even to those who know no Dutch and have no immediate intention of learning it. The need for such a book became all the more obvious to me, when, once employed in a position that entailed the dissemination of Dutch language and culture in an Anglo-Saxon society, I was continually amazed by the ignorance that prevails with regard to the Dutch language, even among colleagues involved in the teaching of other European languages. How often does one hear that Dutch is a dialect of German, or that Flemish and Dutch are closely related (but presumably separate) languages? To my knowledge there has never been a book in English that sets out to clarify such matters and to present other relevant issues to the general and studying public.1. Holland's contributions to European and world history, to art, to shipbuilding, hydraulic engineering, bulb growing and cheese manufacture for example, are all aspects of Dutch culture which have attracted the interest of other nations, and consequently there are numerous books in English and other languages on these subjects. But the language of the people that achieved so much in all those fields has been almost completely neglected by other nations, and to a degree even by the Dutch themselves who have long been admired for their polyglot talents but whose lack of interest in their own language seems never to have disturbed them.

  • Jews in the Netherlands and Their Languages
    Paper Jews in the Netherlands and their languages by Jan Jaap de Ruiter© (Tilburg University) [email protected] November 2014 This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License. To view a copy of this license, visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/ Jews in the Netherlands and their languages Jan Jaap de Ruiter ABSTRACT Cultural contacts between majority and minority groups involve many different aspects, one of which is language. Jews have been living in the Netherlands since around the beginning of the sixteenth century. In the two centuries that followed, their language repertoire was very rich, consisting of at least five different languages. As a result of processes of integration, speeded up by strongly pushed politics of assimilation pursued in line with the equality principle of the French revolution, Dutch Jews in the nineteenth century gave up using nearly all their original languages in favour of Dutch. The article describes these processes of language shift among Dutch Jews and poses the question whether the results of the acculturation process of the Jews going from being multilingual towards becoming monolingual are to be considered a success in terms of acculturation or a loss in terms of culture. KEY WORDS Languages of Jews, History of Dutch Jews, Integration, Assimilation, Emancipation. INTRODUCTION In the Dutch Golden Age, roughly coinciding with the seventeenth century and in the age that followed, Jewish communities living in the Netherlands made use of the following languages: Portuguese, Spanish, Hebrew, Yiddish, Dutch, German and French1. At the end of the nineteenth century, not much was left of this linguistic abundance and the language that Dutch Jews spoke and wrote, predominantly if not exclusively, had become Dutch.

  • Zakhor Nishmat Avotenu Schouten 2
    Zakhor Nishmat Avotenu Schouten 2 Abstract This thesis analyses the memorbukh of the Jewish community that lived in the Dutch village Oisterwijk, Brabant. The book was written in 1770 as part of a protocol book by the community’s rabbi Yekutiel Ziskind, who had come to Oisterwijk in 1769. The genre of memorbikher started as a way to respond to the large-scale persecutions of Jews in the times of the First Crusade in 1096, the Rindfleisch-persecutions in 1298, and the persecutions in the time of the Black Death in 1348/9. Members of Jewish communities that suffered during those persecutions were commemorated for their sufferings and perseverance. In the late medieval and early modern period, the genre of memorbikher was incorporated within the liturgy of Ashkenazic synagogues. This thesis describes the memorbukh from Oisterwijk as an example of an early modern memorbukh by comparing it to other memorbikher of the time. It argues that the author of this memorbukh wrote it in order to bind together his new community. The community in Oisterwijk was a relatively young community, as members had begun to arrive in Oisterwijk only in the 1650s. The author therefore wanted to create a new communal memory that would bind together all the members, despite their different backgrounds. Keywords: Pinkassim, Memorbikher, Jewish memorial books, Yiddish manuscripts.
