    L'objet de cette étude est d'analyser les origines de l'idée de tolérance chez Lazare Carnot. Elles se trouvent de façon explicite dans la pensée des encyclopédistes, analysée ici à partir de l'article " Tolérance " de l'Encyclopédie de Diderot et de d'Alembert. Cette notion y émerge à trois plans différents de la connaissance, théologie, morale, et politique. Dans la seconde partie de l'étude, on confronte la conception philosophique de Carnot à ses applications pratiques : l'encyclopédiste confronté à l'homme politique, au cours d'une carrière que structure la Révolution française. Le moment privilégié retenu pour cette confrontation est la Terreur. Quand, membre du Comité de salut public de la Convention, se pose à lui et de façon aiguë le problème de la cohabitation entre radicalisme politique et tolérance. Deux notions, celle de " salut public ", et précisément celle de " tolérance " apparaissent alors au-delà des frontières de la tolérance. On montre ici que ces limites ne sont pas imposées par la situation d'urgence révolutionnaire, mais déjà pensées par les encyclopédistes des Lumières.The purpose of this study is to analyze the origins of the idea of tolérance in Lazare Carnot. They can be explicitly located in the thinking of the Encyclopedists, which I examine in light of the article "Tolérance" appearing in the Encyclopédieof Diderot and D'Alembert. In this article, the notion of tolérance is developed in terms of three différent spheres of knowledge : theology, ethics, and politics. In the second portion of this study, Carnot's philosophical conception is contrasted with its practical applications — in other words, the Encyclopedist is confronted with the politician, during a career framed by the French Revolution. The key moment for analyzing this opposition is theTerror ; then, as a member of the Convention^ Committee of Public Safety, Carnot was acutely confronted with the problem of the coexistence of political radicalism with tolerance. Thus.two notions — "public safety" and, precisely, "Tolérance" — appear beyond the limitsof tolerance. In this study, these limits are shown to have not been imposed by the situation of revolutionary urgency but instead as having already been conceived by the Encyclopedists of the Enlightenment

    Prenatal phenotyping: A community effort to enhance the Human Phenotype Ontology.

    Technological advances in both genome sequencing and prenatal imaging are increasing our ability to accurately recognize and diagnose Mendelian conditions prenatally. Phenotype-driven early genetic diagnosis of fetal genetic disease can help to strategize treatment options and clinical preventive measures during the perinatal period, to plan in utero therapies, and to inform parental decision-making. Fetal phenotypes of genetic diseases are often unique and at present are not well understood; more comprehensive knowledge about prenatal phenotypes and computational resources have an enormous potential to improve diagnostics and translational research. The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) has been widely used to support diagnostics and translational research in human genetics. To better support prenatal usage, the HPO consortium conducted a series of workshops with a group of domain experts in a variety of medical specialties, diagnostic techniques, as well as diseases and phenotypes related to prenatal medicine, including perinatal pathology, musculoskeletal anomalies, neurology, medical genetics, hydrops fetalis, craniofacial malformations, cardiology, neonatal-perinatal medicine, fetal medicine, placental pathology, prenatal imaging, and bioinformatics. We expanded the representation of prenatal phenotypes in HPO by adding 95 new phenotype terms under the Abnormality of prenatal development or birth (HP:0001197) grouping term, and revised definitions, synonyms, and disease annotations for most of the 152 terms that existed before the beginning of this effort. The expansion of prenatal phenotypes in HPO will support phenotype-driven prenatal exome and genome sequencing for precision genetic diagnostics of rare diseases to support prenatal care

    The Human Phenotype Ontology in 2024: phenotypes around the world.

    The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is a widely used resource that comprehensively organizes and defines the phenotypic features of human disease, enabling computational inference and supporting genomic and phenotypic analyses through semantic similarity and machine learning algorithms. The HPO has widespread applications in clinical diagnostics and translational research, including genomic diagnostics, gene-disease discovery, and cohort analytics. In recent years, groups around the world have developed translations of the HPO from English to other languages, and the HPO browser has been internationalized, allowing users to view HPO term labels and in many cases synonyms and definitions in ten languages in addition to English. Since our last report, a total of 2239 new HPO terms and 49235 new HPO annotations were developed, many in collaboration with external groups in the fields of psychiatry, arthrogryposis, immunology and cardiology. The Medical Action Ontology (MAxO) is a new effort to model treatments and other measures taken for clinical management. Finally, the HPO consortium is contributing to efforts to integrate the HPO and the GA4GH Phenopacket Schema into electronic health records (EHRs) with the goal of more standardized and computable integration of rare disease data in EHRs

    La République en voyage

    Des années 1760 à 1830 le monde bascule. Tout autour de l'Atlantique, sur le pourtour de la Méditerranée, au-delà même du Cap de Bonne-Espérance, un vent de révolution change durablement les sociétés en les faisant entrer dans l'ère contemporaine. De nombreuses études se sont penchées ces dernières années sur la révolution politique qu'a constituée la naissance de la république moderne, et de nombreuses monographies ont par ailleurs traité des voyages. Ce volume réunit les deux aventures. On s'y demande comment une pratique ancienne, le voyage, rencontre une idée nouvelle, la République. Observer les autres sociétés, les coutumes de populations différentes, se transporter ailleurs, partir comprendre sous d'autres cieux, chercher à comparer les gouvernements républicains anciens, nouveaux ou en gestation, ouvrir sa curiosité à un cosmopolitisme des nations, découvrir d'autres modèles politiques que le sien, tout cela devient une sorte de propédeutique tantôt spontanée, tantôt bien organisée, parfois forcée. Il en résulte un transfert d'idées, de personnes et d'expériences que l'aire et l'ère des révolutions atlantiques ont rendu possible depuis le début de la Révolution américaine jusqu'aux premières révolutions du XIXe siècle naissant. Les deux univers du périple et de la citoyenneté s'enrichissent l'un par l'autre, le voyage politique se réinvente de façon originale dans l'exil, dans la conquête, dans l'expédition savante, dans la visite accomplie seul ou en groupe. La pratique du voyage se régénère dans le sens nouveau que lui donnent les républicains des Lumières et des Révolutions. Les deux formules « Where liberty is not this is my country » et « là où se trouve la liberté est mon pays » invitent de façon inverse au même mouvement : porter la république au-delà de ses frontières
