Two behaviour patterns which could bring about clumping in N. brasiliensis, sexual attraction and thigmokinesis, were investigated. A T-tube choice-chamber to facilitate an in vitro study of sexual attraction is described. A method for studying aggregation is also outlined. Male N. brasiliensis were shown to be attracted to female worms, positive sexual attraction. Both sexes were shown to exhibit strong thigmokinetic responses, and possible functions of such behaviour are discussed.I am grateful to Professors J. Brough and D. Bellamy for providing the facilities during the course of this study. I should also like to thank Dr E.. A. Hammond for his supervision, help and criticism throughout the project. This work was carried out during the tenure of a Scientific Research Council Studentship.

Objetivo: identificar o perfil e a produção científica dos bolsistas de produtividade em pesquisa do Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa (CNPq) da área da Residência Multiprofissional em Saúde (RMS) no triênio 2013-2015. Metodologia: estudo descritivo e quantitativo. A pesquisa foi realizada no mês de setembro de 2017, utilizou-se formulário estruturado para coleta de dados a partir do currículo Lattes. Resultados: foram identificados 23 bolsistas, 91,5% do sexo feminino, 78,2% da categoria 2 e 43,5% da área da Enfermagem. Dentre o total de periódicos publicados 8 foram sobre a RMS com predominância de Qualis B1 e B4. Quanto às orientações sobre a RMS 23 foram realizadas no último triênio. Conclusão: é necessário estimular pesquisas sobre à RMS objetivando o conhecimento e valorização dessa modalidade educativa, bem como estimular a sua importância nos serviços de saúde. Estudos dessa natureza são necessários para nortear novas pesquisas.Descritores: Academias e Institutos; Internato não Médico; Pesquisa Científica e Desenvolvimento Tecnológico.PROFILE OF THE PRODUCTIVITY SCOLARSHIPS OF THE MULTIPROFESSIONAL HEALTH RESIDENCY PROGRAM IN THE TRIENNIUM 2013-2015Objective: to identify the profile and scientific production of research productivity fellows from the Brazilian National Research Council (CNPq) of the Multiprofessional Health Residence (RMS) in the triennium 2013-2015. Methodology: descriptive and quantitative study. The research was conducted in September 2017, using a structured form for data collection from the Lattes curriculum. Results: 23 scholarship recipients were identified, 91.5% female, 78.2% from category 2 and 43.5% from the Nursing area. Among the total of published journals, 8 were on RMS with a predominance of Qualis B1 and B4. About the orientations about RMS, 23 were conducted in the last three years. Conclusion: it is necessary to stimulate research on RMS aiming at the knowledge and valuation of this educational modality, as well as stimulating its importance in health services. Studies of this nature are needed to guide new research.Descriptors: Academies and Institutes; Internship not Medical; Scientific Research and Technological DevelopmentPERFIL DE LOS BOLSISTAS DE PRODUCTIVIDAD DEL PROGRAMA DE RESIDENCIA MULTIPROFESIONAL EN SALUD EN EL TRIENIO 2013-2015Objetivo: identificar el perfil y la producción científica de los becarios de productividad en investigación del Consejo Nacional de Investigación (CNPq) del área de la Residencia Multiprofesional en Salud (RMS) en el trienio 2013-2015.

In 1991 a three year research project was initiated by the Geological Institute, University of Copenhagen with financial support from the Ministry of Energy, the Danish Natural Science Research Council and the Carlsberg Foundation. The 'Wandel Sea Basin: basin analysis' project was carried out in collaboration with the Geological Survey of Greenland and included field work in North Greenland; in eastern Peary Land in 1991 and Amdrup Land in 1993 (Fig. 1; Hakansson et al., 1994). The project is a continuation of earlier investigations in the Wandel Sea Basin carried out during geological mapping of North Greenland by the Geological Survey of Greenland in 1978–1980 and during later expeditions to the area (e.g. Hakansson, 1979; Hakansson et al., 1981, 1989, 1991, 1994). Hydrocarbon related studies of the Wandel Sea Basin were continued during the 1994 field season (Stemmerik et al., this report).

Resource sharing has become an absolute necessity for modern scientific research because of the increasing expense and complexity of instruments, and the ever changing funding paradigm which often requires sharing of major instrumentation resource across multiple disciplines. Many universities and even large companies have set up centralized facilities to serve researchers from different departments, divisions and units to minimize expenses and maximizing usage.Just in the materials research area alone, it is estimated that there are more than 500 mid-size facilities existing nationwide, as reported in 2005 by the Committee on Smaller Facilities of National Research Council. Resource sharing is also common in large research groups, between Principal Investigators, as well as in corporate/industrial laboratories.

AbstractThe USA delegation to the July 1919 International Research Council meeting in Brussels included Joel Stebbins, then professor of astronomy and observatory director at the University of Illinois, as secretary of the executive committee appointed by the National Research Council. Stebbins, an avid photographer, documented the travels of their party as the American astronomers attended the meeting and later toured devastated towns, scarred countryside, and battlefields only recently abandoned. Published reports of the meeting afterward attest to the impression left on the American visitors, and the photographs by Stebbins give us a glimpse through their own eyes. Selected photographs, recently discovered in the University of Wisconsin Archives and never before publicly seen, will be presented along with some commentary on their significance for the International Astronomical Union, which took shape at that 1919 meeting.
