Nel settore audiovisivo le disuguaglianze sono evidenti, come emerge da tempo in alcune ricerche pilota (EWA): - L'88% dei film a finanziamento pubblico italiano sono diretti da uomini. Solo nel 12% dei casi si registra una regia femminile. - Il 79% dei film prodotti dalla Rai è stato diretto da uomini. Sono quindi solo il 21% i film prodotti dalla Rai con una regista . - Il 90.8% dei film che arrivano alle sale cinematografiche è diretto da uomini. Meno del 10% (9,2%) sono i film diretti da ...

How can the European Union protect the rights of its citizens? This book, funded by the European Commission, Directorate-General Justice, presents some case studies in which social groups, ethnic minorities and avant-garde have used the European legal instruments to assert their claims. This has often allowed to widen the sphere of rights in member countries, showing that, even without having coercive instruments, EU legal instruments can contribute to achieving progressive outcomes. The ...

A new criminal justice system has re-emerged in the last quarter of a century: national judges have become increasingly bold in prosecuting crimes committed elsewhere, the United Nations has set up specific international tribunals and a large number of states have even instituted the permanent International Criminal Court. What is the effect of these ambitious transformations? Are we facing a new global justice or the will of the most powerful players to process their enemies? Through the ...

La gestione di patologie croniche richiede un nuovo modello socio-sanitario in grado di gestire il lento manifestarsi, il progressivo peggioramento e la notevole complessità di trattamento. L'integrazione tra assistenza ospedaliera e territoriale è un modello da seguire. Di fondamentale importanza è il monitoraggio dei pazienti nella propria abitazione attraverso dispositivi e sensori, che consente di essere in grado di segnalare in tempo reale l'incorrere di stati effettivi di ...

On Earth, landslides are hazardous phenomena often associated with economic damage and loss of human lives. The most common natural triggers of terrestrial landslides are intense or prolonged rainfall, earthquakes, rapid snow melting, and volcanic activity. But what are the main natural triggers of landslides on other solid bodies of the Solar System? Since the early 70's of the last century, landslides were observed on the surface of the Moon, Mars, Mercury and Venus, to mention only the ...

In the last years, there has been a growing interest in the integrated use of innovative materials and ICT technologies to design a new concept of building, meeting the requirements of environmental compatibility and sustainability in terms of materials and energy. In the framework of the Tuscany Regional Project SELFIE, new technological components for buildings have been designed and implemented aiming at introducing new prototypical facade elements that can have a great impact on energy ...

The LAser Ranged Satellites Experiment (LARASE) has the goal to carry out a sequence of measurements of relativistic effects using specific Earth-orbiting satellites for verifying the predictions of General Relativity and of alternatives theories proposed for the description of the gravitational interaction. These measurements are achieved in the so-called weak-field and slow-motion (WFSM) limit of the theory, by means of passive "cannonball" satellites tracked very precisely with the Satellite ...

Su iniziativa del gruppo Menarini e di Oxford BioTherapeutics è stato sviluppato un anticorpo monoclonale, umanizzato, MEN1112 che è in grado di riconoscere ed eliminare cellule di leucemia mieloide acuta. Dopo una fase preclinica di studio e caratterizzazione, che ha dimostrato efficacia e tollerabilità, MEN1112 è stato ed è utilizzato in uno uno studio di tipo traslazionale nel quale l'anticorpo ha dimostrato promettente attività in campioni di sangue periferico e midollare di pazienti ...

Crowd work is a term often adopted to identify networked systems that can be used for the solution of a wide range of complex problems by integrating a large number of human and/or computer efforts. Among several different types of crowd work systems that are already operational in the Internet, a large research effort has been devoted to characterize the performance of microtask-based crowd work systems. The key characteristic of these systems is that a requester structures his problem in a set ...

Fornire al settore forestale europeo migliori conoscenze, metodi e strumenti per ottimizzare la gestione e l'uso sostenibile delle risorse genetiche forestali, è un obiettivo sempre più rilevante soprattutto in un contesto di cambiamenti climatici a cui il nostro pianeta sta andando incontro. Per raggiungere questo obiettivo, una delle nostre ricerche (www.gentree-h2020.eu) si sta concentrando principalmente sullo studio delle basi molecolari dell'adattamento di 12 specie arboree forestali, ...

Dating back to the 60's, and particularly since the advent and successful proliferation of social media, a significant effort has been devoted by the research community to the development of mathematical models describing the evolution of opinions/beliefs in an ecosystem composed of socially interacting individuals. The goal is to gain insights into collective dominant social behaviors and into the impact of different components of the system while being able to predict possible outcomes of ...

I volti delle donne" is a photo project ideated by Manuela Lanzafame, postdoc at the Institue of Molecular Genetics IGM-CNR of Pavia. Portraits of fourteen girls were used to describe different expression characterizing women and were used to realize a calendar. Earnings will be entirely devolved to the Italian foundation for cancer research (AIRC).

Genomic analysis of longevity offers the potential to illuminate the biology of human aging. In a study, recently published in Nature Communications, a genome-wide association meta-analysis of 606,059 parents' survival, helped discover two regions associated with longevity (HLA-DQA1/DRB1 and LPA). Previous suggestions that APOE, CHRNA3/5, CDKN2A/B, SH2B3 and FOXO3A influence longevity have also been validated. Next, the study shows that giving up smoking, educational attainment, openness to new ...

The integrity of our genome has to be maintained ed to prevent accumulation of harmful mutations, or cell death. This is even more needed in tumor cells where breaks in DNA occur at higher frequency. This feature of cancer cells can be exploited to set up therapeutic strategies based on inhibition of DNA repair with the aim to induce cell death. The drugs used so far to strike this "Achilles heel" of cancer cells block the enzymatic activity of essential DNA repair proteins, such as ATM, ATR or ...

Hearing impairment is very common in older adults: 360 million people over 65 have disabling hearing loss worldwide. It is well recognized that a successful plan for hearing rehabilitation of older people shall take into account not only the technological aspects, such as what type of hearing aid or implanted hearing device is used, but also other aspects broadly related to auditory disability. In this view, key factors include the perceived hearing difficulties in real life, the impact on ...

The surge in mobile data traffic -estimated globally at 3.7 exabytes in 2015, with a 74% increase over 2014 and an overall 4,000-fold growth over the past ten years- has fostered the interest of the computer network community towards better understanding the dynamics of the mobile demand. Indeed, a proper characterization of how mobile services are consumed by subscribers can enable an informed, more efficient tailoring of network resource planning and management to the end users' needs. ...
