Hidden inequality in LOMCE

The Organic Law for the Improvement of the Educational Quality (LOMCE) supposes a step back in the development of education. The huge number of critics about this reform gives us a guideline to comment and value some weaknesses of this law. Through the explanation of two main topics: gender segregation and privatization of schools, one can see the negative effect that LOMCE hides: inequality.La Ley Orgánica para la Mejora de la Calidad Educativa (LOMCE) supone un retroceso en el desarrollo de la educación.

CIBERER : Spanish national network for research on rare diseases: A highly productive collaborative initiative

Altres ajuts: Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII); Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación.CIBER (Center for Biomedical Network Research; Centro de Investigación Biomédica En Red) is a public national consortium created in 2006 under the umbrella of the Spanish National Institute of Health Carlos III (ISCIII). This innovative research structure comprises 11 different specific areas dedicated to the main public health priorities in the National Health System. CIBERER, the thematic area of CIBER focused on rare diseases (RDs) currently consists of 75 research groups belonging to universities, research centers, and hospitals of the entire country. CIBERER's mission is to be a center prioritizing and favoring collaboration and cooperation between biomedical and clinical research groups, with special emphasis on the aspects of genetic, molecular, biochemical, and cellular research of RDs. This research is the basis for providing new tools for the diagnosis and therapy of low-prevalence diseases, in line with the International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC) objectives, thus favoring translational research between the scientific environment of the laboratory and the clinical setting of health centers. In this article, we intend to review CIBERER's 15-year journey and summarize the main results obtained in terms of internationalization, scientific production, contributions toward the discovery of new therapies and novel genes associated to diseases, cooperation with patients' associations and many other topics related to RD research

The Professional Identity of Social Educators: A Review of the Literature

We live immersed in a society characterized by the enormous number of changes that occur day after day, which has given rise to many new social needs. To meet these needs, the figure of the social educator has become essential. The present research consists of a systematic literature review that aimed to analyze the most recent studies on the professional identity of the social educator. For this purpose, the PRISMA methodology was used with the help of the ReSiste-CHS framework (Codina, 2018). After searching the databases (WoS, SCOPUS, and Google Scholar) and applying various inclusion/exclusion criteria, a total of 15 documents were selected and subjected to a thematic analysis. Among the main findings, we highlight the wide variety of aspects involved in shaping the identity of social educators, the significant training gaps in the training plans of this sector, and the difficulty in defining the functions and competencies of this figure. Finally, future lines of research are proposed, such as the need to restructure the current curricula of social educators or the development of more studies from a biographical-narrative approach that will allow us to better understand the identity of these professionals
