Sectoral heterogeneity in patterns of educational mismatch in tourism: a gender comparison
The study of the effects of educational mismatch has shown this phenomenon to generate inefficiencies due to a misallocation of resources. These inefficiencies are more detrimental for countries such as Spain, where education is financed to a large extent with public funds, and low-skill demanding sectors, such as tourism, have a high weight in the economy. This paper aims to study the determinants of educational mismatch from a gender perspective, analysing the sectoral heterogeneity that may arise among these determinants in four key productive branches within the Spanish tourism sub-sector, i.e., hotels, transport, intermediary services and other complementary services. For this purpose, a multinomial logit model is employed, which will be estimated separately for each sector and gender of interest, using data from the 2018 Wage Structure Survey of the Spanish National Statistics Institute. Among the results obtained, it is highlighted, firstly, that educational mismatch is not a transitory phenomenon given that it occurs both at the beginning of the individual's working career and at very different levels of permanence. Secondly, it is interesting to note the greater probability of male overeducation observed in the hotel and catering industry and female overeducation in the rest of the services analysed, the latter result possibly reflecting the occupational gender segregation experienced by women in these branches of the economy.Universidad de Málaga.

Sectorial heterogeneity in patterns of educational mismath: a gender comparison in Spanish tourism
This paper aims to study the determinants of educational mismatch from a gender perspective, analysing the sectoral heterogeneity that may arise among these determinants in four key productive branches within the Spanish tourism sub-sector, i.e., hospitality, transport, intermediary services (travel agencies) and other complementary services. In order to achieve this objective, we used a multinomial logit model using data from the 2018 Wage Structure Survey of the Spanish National Statistics Institute. Among the results obtained, we highlight that educational mismatch is not a transitory phenomenon. Furthermore, it is interesting to note the greater probability of male overeducation observed in the hospitality industry and female overeducation in the rest of the services analysed, this latter result is possibly a reflection of the occupational gender segregation experienced by women in these branches of the economy. Due to these results, we proposed various measures to combat occupational gender segregation in a way that favours the fight for gender equality.Universidad de Málaga.

Aprender a convivir en la diversidad en la etapa primaria
¿Se puede convivir con la diversidad en el aula? Es una pregunta-reflexión que
puede surgir en los docentes durante sus jornadas laborales. En este proyecto
de innovación, se pretende dar respuesta a las diversidades o dificultades que
día a día se pueden encontrar los docentes y los alumnos en el ámbito
educativo. Como objetivo se quiere conseguir una escuela inclusiva, en la que
los alumnos/as compartan valores, culturas, diversidades y creen una
convivencia basada en el respeto y la tolerancia. La temática que se abordará
en este proyecto estará relacionada con la aceptación a las diferencias de cada
una de las personas que conforman la educación, respetando las
individualidades de cada uno. Para llevar a cabo dicho proyecto, se tendrán en
cuenta los principios y fines de la educación como el fomento de valores,
esfuerzos individuales, la motivación del alumnado, la convivencia, el respeto,
etc.; además del pleno desarrollo de la personalidad y de las capacidades de
los alumnos, destacando la importancia de convivir con las diversidades en un
mundo en continuo cambio, donde debemos adaptarnos y valorar las
diferencias ya que cada persona es única y diferente.Can we live with diversity in the classroom? It is a question-reflection that can
arise in teachers during their working days. That is why, in this innovation project,
it is intended to respond to the diversities or difficulties that teachers and
students can find in the educational field every day. The objective is to achieve
an inclusive school, in which students share values, cultures, diversities and to
create a respect and tolerance-based coexistence. That is why the theme that
will be addressed in this project is related to the acceptance of the differences of
each of the people who make up education, respecting the individualities of each
one. To carry out this project, the principles and purposes of education will be
taken into account, such as the promotion of values, individual effort, the
motivation of the students, coexistence, respect, etc.; in addition to the full
development of the personality and abilities of the students, we highlighting the importance of living with diversity in a world that is constantly changing, where
we must adapt and value the differences since each person is unique and
different

Biological and microbial activity in biological soil crusts from the Tabernas desert, a sub-arid zone in SE Spain.
The ecology and functional role of biological soil crusts (BSCs) in arid and semi-arid zones have been extremely well studied. However, little is known about the biochemical properties related to the number and activity of the microbiota that form the crusts, even though information about these properties is very important for understanding many of the processes that affect the formations. In this study, several properties related to the activity and number of microorganisms (biomass-C, basal respiration, dehydrogenase activity and nitrogen mineralization potential) were determined at different depths (crusts, 0-0.5 cm; middle, 0.5-3 cm and deep, 3-5 cm layers) in two types of crusts (predominated by cyanobacteria and by lichens) in the Tabernas desert (Almeria, SE Spain). The absolute values of the above-mentioned properties and the values expressed relative to the total organic carbon (TOC) content were both much higher in the crust layers than in the surface horizons of soils under Mediterranean or Atlantic climates. A large part of the TOC in the BSCs was contained in the microbiota and another large part was readily metabolized during incubation of the crusts for 10 days at 25 °C. The net nitrogen mineralization rate was also high, and ammonification predominated in the crust layers, whereas nitrification predominated in the middle and deep layers. In all types of BSCs, the microbiota colonized the deep layers, although with greater intensity in the lichen-dominated BSCs than in the cyanobacterial BSCs. The results also indicate that hydrolytic enzymes are not stabilized on soil colloids and their activity depends only on the active microbiota.Peer reviewe
Deciphering Master Gene Regulators and Associated Networks of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells.
Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSC) are multipotent cells characterized by self-renewal, multilineage differentiation, and immunomodulatory properties. To obtain a gene regulatory profile of human MSCs, we generated a compendium of more than two hundred cell samples with genome-wide expression data, including a homogeneous set of 93 samples of five related primary cell types: bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC), hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), lymphocytes (LYM), fibroblasts (FIB), and osteoblasts (OSTB). All these samples were integrated to generate a regulatory gene network using the algorithm ARACNe (Algorithm for the Reconstruction of Accurate Cellular Networks; based on mutual information), that finds regulons (groups of target genes regulated by transcription factors) and regulators (i.e., transcription factors, TFs). Furtherly, the algorithm VIPER (Algorithm for Virtual Inference of Protein-activity by Enriched Regulon analysis) was used to inference protein activity and to identify the most significant TF regulators, which control the expression profile of the studied cells. Applying these algorithms, a footprint of candidate master regulators of BM-MSCs was defined, including the genes EPAS1, NFE2L1, SNAI2, STAB2, TEAD1, and TULP3, that presented consistent upregulation and hypomethylation in BM-MSCs. These TFs regulate the activation of the genes in the bone marrow MSC lineage and are involved in development, morphogenesis, cell differentiation, regulation of cell adhesion, and cell structure

Clarithromycin Effect in Microbial Communities
Financiaciado para publicación en acceso aberto: Universidade de Vigo/CISUGA laboratory experiment was carried out to investigate the response of the microbial communities in acid agricultural soils located in the NW Iberian Peninsula to the presence of clarithromycin. Four soils, with different organic C content and similar pH, and seven different concentrations of clarithromycin (0.49, 1.95, 7.81, 31.25, 125, 500 and 2,000 mg kg−1 of soil) were used, and microbial estimates were made after 8 and 42 incubation days. The phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) technique was used to estimate the total microbial biomass and biomass of specific microbial groups as well as the microbial community structure (PLFA pattern). The microbial biomass (total and specific groups) was different in the four studied soils, the lowest values being exhibited by soils with the lowest organic C. The antibiotic addition showed a positive effect on microbial biomass (total and specific groups), especially at the highest dose; the effect being similar or even more accentuated with time passed after the addition (42 days ≥8 days). Principal component analysis (PCA) of the PLFA data carried out with the whole data set showed that the main determining factors of the microbial structure followed the order: soil > time incubation ≥ antibiotic dose. When the PCA was performed individually for each incubation time, the results indicated that microbial communities of the four soils were different. Likewise, for each soil, different microbial communities were observed depending on antibiotic concentration. The microbial biomass and PLFA pattern data were coincidentally showing that the clarithromycin addition favored fungi and G− bacteria more that bacteria and G+ bacteria; the effect being dose-dependent. Our data (microbial biomass, PLFA pattern) also demonstrated that the effect of clarithromycin addition on microbial communities in these four acid agricultural soils persisted even after 42 incubation days.Xunta de Galicia | Ref.
