Synthesis of positron emitter-labelled amino acids: Application to the investigation of metabolic preferences and vulnerabilities in a mouse prostate cancer model.

152 p.El carcinoma de próstata es una de las principales causas de muerte en todo el mundo. Por ello, su estudio en modelos animales que mimeticen la enfermedad en humanos se convierte en un tema de interés científico. El objetivo de esta tesis es investigar los marcadores moleculares relacionados con la enfermedad. Con este fin, se eligieron los aminoácidos radiomarcados, para ser utilizados como sondas PET (Positron Emission Tomography) en un modelo animal de cáncer de próstata. Se han desarrollado estrategias sintéticas para la preparación de L- y D-[metil-11C]alanina y L-[13N]alanina, basadas en la catálisis por transferencia de fase y la biocatálisis, respectivamente. Se ha llevado a acabo su estudio de imagen PET, que mostró diferente biodistribución in vivo y una elevada acumulación en las próstatas de los animales inyectados con D-[metil-11C]alanina. Asimismo, se ha abierto una nueva ruta biosintética para la producción de L-[13N]glutamina, cuyo refinamiento hará posible su uso en estudios de imagen

On the Rollout of Network Slicing in Carrier Networks: A Technology Radar

Network slicing is a powerful paradigm for network operators to support use cases with widely diverse requirements atop a common infrastructure. As 5G standards are completed, and commercial solutions mature, operators need to start thinking about how to integrate network slicing capabilities in their assets, so that customer-facing solutions can be made available in their portfolio. This integration is, however, not an easy task, due to the heterogeneity of assets that typically exist in carrier networks. In this regard, 5G commercial networks may consist of a number of domains, each with a different technological pace, and built out of products from multiple vendors, including legacy network devices and functions. These multi-technology, multi-vendor and brownfield features constitute a challenge for the operator, which is required to deploy and operate slices across all these domains in order to satisfy the end-to-end nature of the services hosted by these slices. In this context, the only realistic option for operators is to introduce slicing capabilities progressively, following a phased approach in their roll-out. The purpose of this paper is to precisely help designing this kind of plan, by means of a technology radar. The radar identifies a set of solutions enabling network slicing on the individual domains, and classifies these solutions into four rings, each corresponding to a different timeline: (i) as-is ring, covering today’s slicing solutions; (ii) deploy ring, corresponding to solutions available in the short term; (iii) test ring, considering medium-term solutions; and (iv) explore ring, with solutions expected in the long run. This classification is done based on the technical availability of the solutions, together with the foreseen market demands. The value of this radar lies in its ability to provide a complete view of the slicing landscape with one single snapshot, by linking solutions to information that operators may use for decision making in their individual go-to-market strategies.H2020 European Projects 5G-VINNI (grant agreement No. 815279) and 5G-CLARITY (grant agreement No. 871428)Spanish national project TRUE-5G (PID2019-108713RB-C53

Assessment, diagnosis, care and support for people with dementia and their carers: a national clinical guideline.

This guideline provides recommendations based on current evidence for best practice in the assessment, care and support of adults with dementia. The guideline applies to all settings, including home, long-term care, care homes, hospital, hospice, day-care centres and primary care. Personcentred care should be the focus of the implementation of this guideline. The focus for this guideline is adults living with dementia. Older people with dementia represent the majority of people living with dementia in Scotland, however young-onset dementia in adults is also included. The guideline covers the adult population, as a true dementia in children (ie an incident, progressive, neurodegenerative disorder) is extremely rare. There are specific subgroups of the dementia population and types of dementia that have highly specialist needs, and the guideline development group agreed that covering these groups in this guideline would not provide the in-depth information required to support such groups. Two examples are dementia in people with learning disabilities and those with alcohol-related dementia. Sources of further information about dementia in people with learning disabilities are listed in section 9.4. Prevention of dementia is a rapidly evolving area and would need its own guidance to do justice to the field, and as such was also considered by the guideline development group to be out of scope. Perspectives were sought from stakeholders across Scotland, including people living with dementia and their carers, on the remit of the guideline. Taking these into account the guideline development group agreed to prioritise areas where specific guidance was needed for Scotland

Implementation and Assessment of a Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) in General Chemistry

Course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are growing in popularity in the chemistry community to replace traditional laboratory courses. This approach creates a research experience for a larger number of students than traditional research mentorship experiences offered at universities. CUREs can help students take ownership of projects, learn to design and troubleshoot experimental setups, problem-solve experiments that don’t have a “known answer”, and gain confidence in the laboratory. To assess the effectiveness of a general chemistry laboratory-based CURE course with DePaul students, the Experimental Design Ability Test (EDAT) and the Meaningful Learning in the Laboratory Instrument (MLLI) survey were given to the traditional General Chemistry Laboratory students and to the CURE laboratory students during the same quarter. The EDAT evaluates students’ ability to develop a hypothetical investigative design to test a claim. The MLII measures students’ expectations and thoughts about the laboratory before and after the experiments take place and whether they are integrating these thoughts with what they are doing hands-on in the laboratory course. These surveys were given at the start of the quarter and at the end of the quarter. Results of this study showed that students in the CURE course had higher experimental learning in the affective and cognitive domains compared to the non-CURE students
