The University of Buenos Aires (UBA) is the largest university in Argentina. With a staff and student population of almost 200 000, the coherent organization and exploitation of research resources present a major challenge. The author outlines the problems and proceeds to identify the kinds and degrees of research being undertaken, the funding mechanisms which support it, and the structure and management of the University as they relate to the optimal exploitation of its R&D potential. She then discusses the development of science and technology transfer activities at UBA and the ways in which links with outside institutions and firms are being developed.

El presente artículo analiza y compara las principales narrativas que los distintos dispositivos institucionales de cine ambiental ponen en circulación en Buenos Aires a través de sus películas documentales. Las preguntas clave son: ¿qué tipo de narrativas y enfoques del ambientalismo movilizan tales dispositivos?, ¿a través de qué argumentos lo hacen?, ¿predominan en ellos discursos expertos que confían en la potencialidad de ciertos cambios culturales y/o en las innovaciones científico-tecnológicas dentro de las economías capitalistas globales?, ¿o más bien encontramos enfoques alternativos que cuestionan las bases mismas del capitalismo en la actualidad? Con el fin de contestar los interrogantes, llevamos adelante un análisis sociológico en dos niveles: uno de orden institucional, orientado a caracterizar las redes de actores que se conforman alrededor de los dispositivos de cine ambiental, y otro nivel de carácter narrativo, cuyo objetivo es rastrear los distintos enfoques y discursos sobre la cuestión ambiental. Abstract This article analyzes and compares the main narratives circulated by different environmental film institutional devices in Buenos Aires through their documentary films. The key questions are: What type of narratives and approaches of environmentalism mobilize such devices? Which arguments are used? Are they dominated by expert’s speeches which rely on the potential of certain cultural changes and/or science and technology innovations within global capitalist economies? Or rather are they alternative approaches questioning the very foundations of capitalism today? In order to answer those questions, we conducted a sociological analysis on two levels: an institutional one, aimed at characterizing the networks of actors that are formed around the environmental film devices, and a narrative one, the purpose of which is to track the main speeches and approaches on the environmental issue.

Marked by the diversity of initiatives linking science and art and by new presentation formats, the 15th Congress of the Network for Popularisation of Science and Technology in Latin America and the Caribbean (RedPOP) saw heated debates on science, culture, politics and society. Between 21st and 25th August, it brought together in Buenos Aires (Argentina) about 400 participants from 14 countries in order to share new visions, initiatives and research work in science communication. During the event, which included a vast cultural programme, a series of challenges were raised for the future development of the field.

Conti: One of the main conclusions of the Wolf-Rayet symposium in Buenos Aires was that Wolf-Rayet stars are evolutionary products of massive objects. Some questions:–Do hot helium-rich stars, that are not Wolf-Rayet stars, exist?–What about the stability of helium rich stars of large mass? We know a helium rich star of ∼40 MO. Has the stability something to do with the wind?–Ring nebulae and bubbles : this seems to be a much more common phenomenon than we thought of some years age.–What is the origin of the subtypes? This is important to find a possible matching of scenarios to subtypes.

Work has recently begun in the Physics Department of the Manchester College of Science and Technology on an attempt to simulate lunar luminescence in the laboratory. This programme is running parallel with that of our colleagues in the Manchester University Astronomy Department, who are making observations of the luminescent spectrum of the Moon itself. Our instruments are as yet only partly completed, but we will describe briefly what they are to consist of, in the hope that we may benefit from the comments of others in the same field, and arrange to co-ordinate our work with theirs.
