Este artículo propone analizar el discurso europeo sobre la educación emprendedora a nivel superior. El problema analizado se estructura en torno al ‘cambio de mentalidad’ y la ‘revolución cultural’ que promueven estas políticas, mostrando que el ‘emprendedor’ se presenta como un modelo ‘universal’ que se construye como contrapuesto al trabajador asalariado. De este modo, las recomendaciones europeas y la implementación en España de esas recomendaciones parecen indicar que ‘liberar el espíritu...

La protección de la vulnerabilidad es consustancial al Derecho. Muchos principios y reglas del Derecho tienen por objeto la protección del débil o del vulnerable. En los últimos tiempos la legislación está haciendo un uso muy intenso del término ‘vulnerabilidad’ para aludir a sujetos y objetos muy heterogéneos. En este trabajo se expone la normativa ambiental y climática que se refiere a la vulnerabilidad, sin que sea posible, formular un concepto jurídico unívoco de la vulnerabilidad ambiental..., The protection of vulnerability is inherent to the Law. Many principles and rules of law are aimed at the protection of the weak or the vulnerable. In recent times, the legislation is making a very intense use of the term ‘vulnerability’ to allude to very heterogeneous subjects and objects. This paper show the environmental and climatic regulations that refer to vulnerability. It is not possible to define a legal concept of environmental or climatic vulnerability, due to its polysemic and..., El presente trabajo se realiza en el marco del Proyecto de Investigación titulado 'Bioderecho ambiental y protección de la vulnerabilidad: hacia un nuevo marco jurídico' (Referencia: DER2017-85981-C2-1-R), Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (Convocatoria 2017 de Proyectos de I+D+i correspondientes al Programa estatal de Investigación, Desarrollo e Innovación orientada a los Retos de la Sociedad, en el marco del Plan Estatal de Investigación Científica y Técnica y de...

Tras la entrada en vigor de la Constitución de 1978, se modifica el modelo de relaciones entre la Iglesia y el Estado, optándose por un sistema de separación Iglesia-Estado, en el que el Estado opta por ser neutral frente al fenómeno religioso, reconociendo la libertad de conciencia y religiosa. Sin embargo, la praxis real nos demuestra la existencia de diferencias entre la teoría constitucional y la legislación ordinaria, debido a la existencia de diversos estatutos jurídicos en relación con..., After the entry into force of the Spanish Constitution of 1978, it was modified the model of relations between Church and State, and it was adopted a system of separation between State and religious groups. The State opts for an attitude of neutrality in relation with the religious phenomenon, and recognizes the freedom of conscience and religion. Nevertheless, the real praxis shows clear differences between constitutional theory and ordinary legislation, because of different legal status for...

La presente tesis doctoral gira en torno a los efectos de programas de intervenciones gamificadas sobre la capacidad funcional en personas mayores hospitalizadas. La hospitalización es un proceso que conduce al desarrollo de discapacidad en las personas mayores.

Las intervenciones..., This doctoral thesis focuses on the effects of gamified intervention programmes on the functional capacity of hospitalized older adults. Hospitalization is a process that leads to the development of disability in older adults. Hospitalization-associated disability is mainly induced by reduced physical activity and frequent episodes of bed rest during this process of health restoration. Gamified interventions can be a novel and effective strategy to prevent hospitalization-associated functional..., Programa de Doctorado en Ciencias de la Salud (RD 99/2011), Osasun Zientzietako Doktoretza Programa (ED 99/2011)

In this paper we introduce a novel methodology to face the problem of finding, for every fuzzy set of the real line, a fuzzy number which can be considered as an approximation of the first one in some reasonable sense. This methodology depends on a wide variety of initial parameters that each researcher may set depending on his/her own interests. The main objective of this new methodology is to ensure that many of the techniques that are currently available for fuzzy numbers can also be..., This manuscript has been partially supported by Junta de Andalucía by Project FQM-365 of the Andalusian CICYE, and also by Projects PID2020-119478GB-I00 and PID2019-108392GB-I00 (AEI/10.13039/501100011033 , Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación).

The 4 per 1000 initiative aims to maintain and increase soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks for soil fertility, food security, and climate change adaptation and mitigation. One way to enhance SOC stocks is to increase carbon (C) inputs to the soil.

The automotive industry is one of the most important economic sectors in the world. At the beginning, vehicles only had mechanical components, so the use of an automotive wire harness was not indispensable. Cars today are equipped with electronic components that, in addition to the basic operations of moving, turning, and stopping, perform more and more functions every day. Wiring harnesses are indispensable for controlling these electronic components. Automotive wiring harnesses have hundreds...

Current climate changes imply an imminent risk for forest species. In this context, somatic embryogenesis is a valuable tool to study the response of plants to different abiotic stresses. Based on this, we applied a high-temperature regime (50 °C, 5 min) during the maturation of Pinus radiata D.

Los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) cada vez están más presentes en la formación de los futuros docentes como una de las metas más urgentes de la Agenda 2030. Desde la enseñanza de las ciencias sociales y, en concreto, desde la educación patrimonial, nos preguntamos si los futuros docentes reciben una adecuada formación al respecto, si conocen qué son estos objetivos y qué encierra cada uno de ellos. Así mismo, nos reguntamos qué saben sobre la sostenibilidad del patrimonio..., The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are increasingly present in the training of future teachers as one of the most urgent goals of the 2030 Agenda, however, this broad concept does not allow us to work on the specific nature of its goals. From the point of view of social sciences teaching and, specifically, heritage education, we wonder whether future teachers receive adequate training in this regard, whether they know what these goals are and what each of them entails. At a more specific..., Este artículo recoge resultados del proyecto PID2020-115288RB-I00 'Competencias digitales, procesos de aprendizaje y toma de conciencia sobre el patrimonio cultural: Educación de calidad para ciudades y comunidades sostenibles' MINECO/AEI-FEDER.

Crystalline Bi100−xSbx alloys are known as the first discovered topological insulators, as well as for their promising thermoelectric properties, while their amorphous counterparts exhibit superconductivity (Tc > 6 K). However, their strong tendency to crystallize has hindered both the study and practical applications of amorphous Bi and Bi–Sb alloys. To explore the possibility of obtaining amorphous superconducting phases and enhancing thermoelectric properties, we investigated ion-beam..., Financial support from the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities (MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033) through the grant No. PID2021-127498NB-I00 and within the 'María de Maeztu' Program for Units of Excellence in R&D (No. CEX2023-001316-M).

The aim of this paper is to critically analyse the structure of religious beliefs and practices in Spain today. In order to approach this task, we have developed a research design that revolves around two analytical cores. The first is of a more descriptive-argumentative nature, where we present the Spanish religious reality by studying available data from relevant statistical sources, specifically, the Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas and the Observatorio del Pluralismo Religioso. The..., In the case of the author G.U.A., part of the research leading to this paper has been developed in the framework of the research project 'Religious diversity and democratic coexistence: analysis and proposals for municipal policies-DIVERPOMU' (Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities-project number PID2023-149877NB-100).

Revisions of US macroeconomic data are not white-noise. They are persistent, correlated with real-time data, and with high variability (around 80% of volatility observed in US real-time data). Their business cycle effects are examined in an estimated DSGE model that distinguishes real-time data from final data. Both the consumption habit formation and the price indexation to lagged inflation fall significantly in the estimation. The model also shows that revision shocks of both output and..., The authors would like to acknowledge financial support from the Spanish government (research projects ECO2008-02641 and ECO2010-16970 from Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, respectively).

Biofilm development is recognized as a major virulence factor underlying most chronic bacterial infections. When a biofilm community is established, planktonic cells growing in the surroundings of a tissue switch to a sessile lifestyle and start producing a biofilm matrix. The initial steps of in vivo biofilm development are poorly characterized and difficult to assess experimentally. A great amount of in vitro evidence has shown that accumulation of high levels of cyclic dinucleotides (c-di-..., J.

The precise understanding of the biology of a living cell requires the identification and quantification of the molecular components necessary to sustain life. One such element is RNA. Two independent high-throughput strategies are available to identify the entire collection of RNA molecules produced by a cell population, which is currently known as the transcriptome. One technique relies on microarray technology (tiling arrays), whereas the second one relies on sequencing the RNA pool (RNA-seq...

We demonstrate a novel concept for Brillouin optical time domain analysis sensors that is based on synthesizing a virtual Brillouin frequency shift profile along the sensing fiber. The technique is based on modulating the wavelength of the optical source with a periodic waveform that is synchronized to the pump pulse. Application of this new tool to the compensation of non local effects and Brillouin induced noise in distributed sensors is experimentally demonstrated., The authors wish to acknowledge the financial support from the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación through the project TEC2010-20224-C02-01 and from the Universidad Pública de Navarra.

I also present two letters addressed to Fernando Remacha from Félix Huarte, that provide additional information.

Trabajo presentado al VIII Congreso General de Historia de Navarra, celebrado en Pamplona entre el 22 y 25 septiembre 2014., Las relaciones de sucesos se convirtieron en el vehículo más recurrente para transmitir noticias de todo tipo durante el Siglo de Oro. Su éxito fue notable entre la sociedad hispana de 1640-1650 debido a la difícil coyuntura política que atravesaba la Monarquía Hispánica. En ese contexto debe enmarcarse el texto que Martín de Labayen publicó en Pamplona en 1647, en donde informaba del avance en Cataluña contra los franceses, al igual que de la situación en Nápoles, Milán o Flandes., Narrative of events became the most recurring way to transmit news of all kinds during the Siglo de Oro. Its success was remarkable among the Spanish Society of the period 1640-1650, due to the difficult political situation the Monarchy was facing. In that context was born the text of Martín de Labayen, published in Pamplona in 1647, in wich he reported Catalonia was making progress against the French, and also of the situation in Naples, Milan and Flanders.

A surprising example of interspecies competition is the production by certain bacteria of hydrogen peroxide at concentrations that are lethal for others. A case in point is the displacement of Staphylococcus aureus by Streptococcus pneumoniae in the nasopharynx, which is of considerable clinical significance. How it is accomplished, however, has been a great mystery, because H2O2 is a very well known disinfectant whose lethality is largely due to the production of hyperoxides through the..., This work was supported by Comisión Interministerial de Ciencia y Tecnología Grants BIO2005-08399-C02-02, BIO2008-05284-C02-02, and BIO2008-00642-E/C; Cardenal Herrera-CEU University Grants PRCEUUCH25/ 08 and Copernicus program; and by Conselleria de Agricultura, Pesca i Alimentació (CAPiA), and from the Generalitat Valenciana (ACOMP07/258) (J.R.P.).

When the institutions involved in GR preservation decide to define a CC, they frequently prefer to select accessions based not only on strictly objective criteria, but also to add others following expert knowledge considerations (popularity, prestige, role in breeding history, or presence of phenotypic features of interest). The aim of this study was to evaluate the implications of..., This project was funded through the Federal Office for Agriculture FOAG within the NPA-PGRFA.

Early detection of obesity and its associated comorbidities in children needs priority for the development of effective therapeutic intervention. Circulating miRNAs (microRNAs) have been proposed as biomarkers for obesity and its comorbidities; therefore, we conducted a systematic review to summarize results of studies that have quantified the profile of miRNAs in children and adolescents with obesity and/or associated disorders. Nine studies aiming to examine differences in miRNA expression..., This research was funded by the Spanish Ministry of Industry and Competitiveness (DEP2016-78377-R) and by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), M.O. is supported by a grant from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, grant number; BES-2017-080770 and the APC was funded by additional support from the University of Granada, UGR Research and Knowledge Transfer Fund (PPIT) 2016, Excellence Actions Programme, and Excellence Actions Programe.

Trabajo presentado al International Symposium Elementary Mathematics Teaching. Praga, 2019, To improve primary school teachers' maths-specific education at university, our project will develop a series of workshops, as ready-to-use instruments, which closely consider children's way of learning and their relationship with mathematics. Thus, the interest of participants in children is exploited in sessions which take into account both their professional work as teachers and their own childhood experiences. The aim is to help participants to evolve in the key aspect of trust...., The paper was supported by the Erasmus+ project 2018-1-ES01-KA203-050986 entitled 'Learning from children to improve primary school teachers' maths-specific education'.

Indirect current feedback (ICF) is a very common operation principle used in the design of CMOS instrumentation amplifiers (IA). The input and output transconductors required in an ICF IA usually consist on resistive-degenerated simple differential pairs. In this contribution conventional source-follower (SF) structures used in IA transconductors are replaced by flippedvoltage-follower (FVF) and super-source-follower (SSF) cells, respectively. As a result, the overall performance and efficiency...

Normal-weight obesity (NWO) syndrome has been shown to be associated with cardiometabolic dysfunction. However, little is known regarding this potential relationship in Latin American children and adolescents. The aim of this study was two-fold: (i) to investigate whether Colombian youth with NWO syndrome have a poorer cardiometabolic profile and physical fitness performance than normal-weight lean (NWL) peers; and (ii) to determine if physical fitness levels are related to prevalence of normal..., A.G.-H. is a Miguel Servet Fellow (Instituto de Salud Carlos III-FSE—CP18/0150).

We study the moderating effects of household (e.g., shopping frequency) and product (e.g., sensory nature) characteristics on household brand loyalty, size loyalty and price sensitivity across online and offline channels for grocery products. We analyze the shopping behavior of the same households that shop interchangeably in the online and offline stores of the same grocery chain in 93 categories of food, nonfood, sensory and nonsensory products. We find that households are more brand loyal,..., This project is partially supported by the Singapore Ministry of Education Research Project R-317-000- 073-113 and the Government of Navarre and the Spanish Ministry of Science Research Project SEC2002- 04321-C02-02.

In this work, a comparative analysis of two iron bullets found in The Royal Ammunition Factory of Eugi in Navarra (Spain) was performed. Both bullets presented a spherical shape with a relatively good state of preservation, belonging to the last years of the factory production (1766-1850). Several techniques such as microhardness, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), light (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical mission spectroscopy (OES) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX)...

Ecuador cuenta con una legislación avanzada que reconceptualiza como adultos y adultas mayores el estatuto ordinario del “anciano” y su vulnerabilidad en términos de vejez incapacitante geriatrizada. Con una administración territorial descentralizada, los asiste como grupo prioritario de atención, lo que garantiza su participación ciudadana. Sin embargo, el marco de atención se centra en la familia dentro de los parámetros de la intergeneracionalidad, la independencia activa, y un presupuesto..., Ecuador has advanced legislation with which old age and elderly are reconceptualized as Older adults. Thus, Ecuador works with the term "Adulto mayor" as an active citizen. All of this within a comprehensive Life Cycle (Intergenerationality), which also includes gender mainstreaming, empowerment and plurality. In addition, Ecuador has a decentralized the administration of territory, which assists the elderly population as a priority care group, ensuring this policy participation....

We present, for the first time, an experimental demonstration of RIN noise transfer dampening at low frequencies in random distributed feedback ultralong Raman fibre lasers based on conventional telecommunication fibres. Furthermore, we present a thorough theoretical description of the phenomenon and demonstrate how our model can be used to predict the observed behaviour, identifying the general requirements for system improvement through RIN transfer reduction., Comunidad de Madrid (AEI/FEDER funds TALENTO-CM 2017-T2/TIC-5227, SINFOTON2-CM (S2018-NMT/4326)); Horizon 2020 Framework Programme (Marie Sklodowska-Curie—748839); LAPHIA (Lasers and Photonics in Aquitaine); Conseil Régional d’Aquitaine (2017-1R50302-00013493); Universidad de Alcalá (CCG19/IA-051); Spanish Government (PID2019-107270RBC22, RTI2018-RTI2018-097957-B-C33).

Versión actualizada del trabajo presentado a las Jornadas sobre Herramientas Difusas para el Razonamiento No Canónico (III HARMONIC 2018). organizadas por la Universidad de Cádiz en Jimena de la Frontera (Cádiz) del 1 al 4 de noviembre de 2018., A mathematical model is presented to define new inclusions, intersections and unions as alternatives to the usual ones between crisp and fuzzy subsets. In particular, the concept of “the non-trivial content of the empty set ∅” is analyzed. This proposed model is based on the interconnection of two consolidated mathematical concepts in specialized literature: One, (which belongs to the field of image processing using Mathematical Morphology techniques), is that of order of activity and that we...
