Relatório de estágio curricular no Camões, I.P. : léxico e tradução

Este relatório de estágio tem por base o trabalho realizado durante o estágio curricular que decorreu no Camões – Instituto da Cooperação e da Língua no âmbito do Mestrado em Tradução da Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa. E tem como principal objetivo a análise e discussão de temáticas do foro linguístico, nomeadamente questões lexicais. O trabalho desenvolvido ao longo do estágio curricular consistiu na tradução para língua portuguesa de vários textos de âmbitos técnicos e científicos, sobre uma variedade de temáticas, originalmente escritos em língua inglesa. Com vista à elaboração deste relatório, foram selecionados vários exemplos representativos de alguns fenómenos lexicais cuja tradução foi particularmente desafiante, ou que colocam em evidência dificuldades que podem surgir durante a tradução de textos de diversas áreas do saber. O relatório de estágio encontra-se dividido em três capítulos. No primeiro capítulo é feita uma breve apresentação da entidade de acolhimento, bem como uma descrição e caracterização do estágio curricular, da sua organização e dos métodos de trabalho aplicados no decorrer do mesmo. É também feita uma breve descrição dos principais documentos que foram trabalhados e que serviram de base à discussão que surge noutra parte do relatório. No segundo capítulo são apresentadas as bases teóricas que sustentam o relatório. Nele é feita uma breve caracterização da Tradução enquanto objeto de estudo, das diferentes tipologias de texto traduzidas e das características do tradutor e do seu papel no trabalho de tradução. No terceiro capítulo do relatório procede-se à análise e discussão dos fenómenos lexicais propriamente ditos. Este capítulo subdivide-se em várias secções com base no fenómeno a ser analisado, nomeadamente léxico especializado, empréstimos, questões de localização e phrasal verbs.This internship report is based on the work developed during a curricular internship carried out at Camões – Instituto da Cooperação e da Língua, as part of the master’s degree in Translation, offered by Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa. The main goal is to present an analysis and discussion on several subjects related to Linguistics, with a specific focus on the lexicon. During the aforementioned internship we translated several scientific and technical texts on a wide range of subjects from English to Portuguese. In order to write this report I chose a sample of lexical phenomena whose translation was particularly challenging or that clearly exemplify the types of difficulties which may occur while translating similar documents. This internship report is divided into three chapters. The first of these includes a brief description of the hosting organization as well as a description of the internship, the way it was organized and the work methods used during said internship. This chapter also features a brief description of the most important documents I translated, which are the basis of the analysis featured in chapter 3. In the second chapter I present the theoretical framework of the report. It also includes a short discussion on the subject of Translation, the different types of texts, the characteristics of the Translator and its role in the greater scope of Translation work. The third chapter is comprised of the analysis and discussion of the lexical phenomena themselves. This chapter is divided into several sections corresponding to each type of phenomenon covered in this report: specialized lexicon; loanwords; localization; and phrasal verbs

O Papel da Transferência, da Contratransferência e da Interpretação da Transferência no Processo Psicoterapêutico: um estudo qualitativo

Este estudo é parte de um projeto cujo objetivo é o aprofundamento do conhecimento teórico-empírico sobre os mecanismos de identificação pré-consciente e de reconhecimento consciente da transferência e da contratransferência e sobre as condições de formulação da interpretação da transferência no tratamento psicanalítico. O estudo empírico qualitativo baseia-se na análise temático-categorial do material clínico de um processo de supervisão em grupo. Depois de uma breve revisão teórica dos conceitos psicanalíticos em investigação foi realizada a análise do material narrativo decorrente de sessões de supervisão clínica selecionadas e previamente registadas em áudio. A partir da análise e discussão dos resultados da investigação é possível identificar tanto as caraterísticas destes fenómenos inconscientes da relação terapeuta-paciente, como as diferenças de expressão em duas modalidades diferentes de tratamento psicanalítico, psicoterapia psicanalítica em “face-a-face” e em “cadeira-divã” sofá no caso deste estudo. / This study is part of a project aimed at deepening the theoretical-empirical knowledge not only on the pre-conscious identification and conscious recognition of transference and countertransference, but also on the process of formulating transference interpretation in psychoanalytic treatment. The qualitative empirical study is based on the thematic-categorical analysis of clinical material issued from a group supervision process. After a brief theoretical review of the psychoanalytic concepts in study, narrative analyses of the material issued from audio recorded sessions were performed. The goals of the study were met, meaning that it was possible to categorize the main features of these unconscious phenomena, as well as to and to identify some differences in their expression across two different modalities of psychoanalytic treatment, “face-to-face and couch psychoanalytic psychotherapy in the case of this study

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

SARS-CoV-2 introductions and early dynamics of the epidemic in Portugal

Genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in Portugal was rapidly implemented by the National Institute of Health in the early stages of the COVID-19 epidemic, in collaboration with more than 50 laboratories distributed nationwide. Methods By applying recent phylodynamic models that allow integration of individual-based travel history, we reconstructed and characterized the spatio-temporal dynamics of SARSCoV-2 introductions and early dissemination in Portugal. Results We detected at least 277 independent SARS-CoV-2 introductions, mostly from European countries (namely the United Kingdom, Spain, France, Italy, and Switzerland), which were consistent with the countries with the highest connectivity with Portugal. Although most introductions were estimated to have occurred during early March 2020, it is likely that SARS-CoV-2 was silently circulating in Portugal throughout February, before the first cases were confirmed. Conclusions Here we conclude that the earlier implementation of measures could have minimized the number of introductions and subsequent virus expansion in Portugal. This study lays the foundation for genomic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in Portugal, and highlights the need for systematic and geographically-representative genomic surveillance.We gratefully acknowledge to Sara Hill and Nuno Faria (University of Oxford) and Joshua Quick and Nick Loman (University of Birmingham) for kindly providing us with the initial sets of Artic Network primers for NGS; Rafael Mamede (MRamirez team, IMM, Lisbon) for developing and sharing a bioinformatics script for sequence curation (https://github.com/rfm-targa/BioinfUtils); Philippe Lemey (KU Leuven) for providing guidance on the implementation of the phylodynamic models; Joshua L.

Photography-based taxonomy is inadequate, unnecessary, and potentially harmful for biological sciences

The question whether taxonomic descriptions naming new animal species without type specimen(s) deposited in collections should be accepted for publication by scientific journals and allowed by the Code has already been discussed in Zootaxa (Dubois & Nemésio 2007; Donegan 2008, 2009; Nemésio 2009a–b; Dubois 2009; Gentile & Snell 2009; Minelli 2009; Cianferoni & Bartolozzi 2016; Amorim et al. 2016). This question was again raised in a letter supported by 35 signatories published in the journal Nature (Pape et al. 2016) on 15 September 2016. On 25 September 2016, the following rebuttal (strictly limited to 300 words as per the editorial rules of Nature) was submitted to Nature, which on 18 October 2016 refused to publish it. As we think this problem is a very important one for zoological taxonomy, this text is published here exactly as submitted to Nature, followed by the list of the 493 taxonomists and collection-based researchers who signed it in the short time span from 20 September to 6 October 2016
