This text gives account of the tensions and contradictions emerging from the need to respond to motherhood and respond to the demands of the scientific activity, at a time when the boundaries between the domestic-family and the work public are being erased, leaving to know how women keep think of themselves and we continue to think of ourselves as exclusively responsible for care, as motherhood continues to be central for the configuration female identities. The text counts with the analysis of comments on informative websites, as well as information provided by a netnography made on Facebook, based on the comments of by academic women make and which express the discomforts about the double, or triple burden, they have to perform, indoors. The analysis allows to highlight the existence of an ideal traditional model of motherhood, which is in tension with autonomous and independent female professional identities that, given the confinement derived from the pandemic, becomes more visible, making also more evident the strategies and the difficulties in terms of professional and personal times.

Abstract This paper offers a new reading of Plato’s Laches that examines the dialogue’s philosophical approach not only to courage but also to two literary texts that both formed and questioned traditional Athenian views of it: Homer and Thucydides. In the middle of Plato’s Laches, the eponymous character claims that the courageous man “should be willing to stay in formation, to defend himself against the enemy, and to refuse to run away.” Socrates responds by wondering whether a man can be courageous in retreat. He cites Homer’s description of Aeneas’ horses that “know how to pursue and flee quickly this way and that” (191b), a quotation that appears twice in the Iliad: once at 5.222-3 when Aeneas refuses to retreat from the rampaging Diomedes and again at 8.106-8 when Diomedes retreats from Hector, despite their belief that to do so is cowardly. On the surface, it seems that the contexts of the Homeric line do not match Socrates’ argument. This paper will argue that Socrates’ apparent ‘miscue’ is both intentional and purposeful because it signals a correspondence between the Homeric scenes and Thucydides’ narrative of the Battle of Mantinea that invites criticism of Homer’s place in the value systems of contemporary Athens. Plato signals a philosophical reading of Homer’s Iliad and of Thucydides’ description of the Battle of Mantinea, through which we are invited to evaluate not only the traditional model of Athenian education, embodied by the former, but also its application in fifth-century Athens, as revealed by the latter. This paper, therefore, demonstrates that the philosophical and literary strategies behind Plato’s decision to ‘misuse’ Homer reveal a disjunction between wisdom and manliness in the Athenian cultural tradition that philosophy aims to resolve.

Beam-radiation effects on wool in the ESEM

Environmental Sem

The advent of the environmental SEM (ESEM) has made possible the examination of uncoated and untreated specimen surfaces in the presence of a gaseous or liquid environment. However, the question arises as to what degree the examined surface remains unaffected by the action of the electron beam. It is reasonable to assume that the beam invariably affects all specimens but the type and degree of effect may be totally unimportant for one class of applications and totally unacceptable for another; yet, for a third class, it is imperative to know how our observations are modified by the presence of the beam. The aim of this report is to create an awareness of the need to initiate research work in various fields in order to determine the guiding rules of the limitations (or even advantages) due to irradiation.

Bulk Matrix

For the calculation of X-ray intensities emitted by elements present in multi-layer systems it is vital to have an accurate knowledge of the x-ray ionization vs. mass-depth (ϕ(ρz)) curves as a function of accelerating voltage and atomic number of films and substrate. Once this knowledge is available the way is open to the analysis of thin films in which both the thicknesses as well as the compositions can usually be determined simultaneously.Our bulk matrix correction “PROZA” with its proven excellent performance for a wide variety of applications (e.g., ultra-light element analysis, extremes in accelerating voltage) has been used as the basis for the development of the software package discussed here. The PROZA program is based on our own modifications of the surface-centred Gaussian ϕ(ρz) model, originally introduced by Packwood and Brown. For its extension towards thin film applications it is required to know how the 4 Gaussian parameters α, β, γ and ϕ(o) for each element in each of the films are affected by the film thickness and the presence of other layers and the substrate.

Daunting Task

Abstract At first, grant writing may look like a daunting task. You may ask yourself, “Is it really worth the time and effort?” With today's economic situation, teachers and therapists need ways to supplement their programs and grants provide such an opportunity. However, many of us do not know how to get started. After a few experiences and many lessons learned, I have come to enjoy researching and writing grants to supplement my students' learning. It is well worth the time and effort. This article provides information about a personal journey, lessons learned, and resources to get you started.

Zusammenfassung. Das Messen und Sammeln von Gesundheits- und Fitnessdaten sowie die telemedizinische Beratung unterstützen die Eigenverantwortung und Selbstbestimmung des mündigen Bürgers in seiner Gesundheit und fördern das Patient-Empowerment. Da aber der Patient mit dem zunehmenden und weitläufigen Daten- und Informationsangebot mehr und mehr überfordert ist, benötigt er die Hilfe und den Ratschlag seines Arztes. Erfolgt eine telemedizinische Beratung, Betreuung oder Intervention, steht die sofortige individuelle medizinische Handlungskonsequenz als machbare Telemedizin Applikation im Vordergrund. Die Qualität steht und fällt mit der Aus-, Weiter- und Fortbildung bzw. dem telemedizinischem Know-how der involvierten Ärzte.

Therapeutische Interventionen

Bei therapierefraktären chronischen Schmerzzuständen werden im Rahmen eines multimodalen Behandlungskonzeptes als Ergänzung zur medikamentösen, physio- und psychotherapeutischen Behandlung interventionelle Schmerztherapien durchgeführt. Diese beinhalten sowohl diagnostische als auch therapeutische Interventionen, welche entweder direkt gegen die Schmerz verursachende Struktur (z.B. intraartikuläre Steroidinfiltration) oder gegen die Schmerz leitenden Nervenstrukturen (z.B. Fazettennervenblockaden) gerichtet sind. Dabei wird zur Erhöhung der Präzision sowie Patientensicherheit die Nadelposition mittels radiologischer Bildgebung kontrolliert, wobei meistens die Durchleuchtung zur Anwendung kommt, bei entsprechender Indikation sowie Know-How sind auch Ultraschall- oder CT-kontrollierte Interventionen möglich. Im Folgenden werden die gängigen schmerztherapeutischen Interventionen, ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit, näher vorgestellt.

Chronisch Kranke

Im Jahr 2000 startete das Institut für Pflegewissenschaft in Basel mit einem klinisch ausgerichteten Masterprogramm in Advanced Nursing Practice (ANP). Die mit einem Masterabschluss erlangte Pflegeexpertise beinhaltet vertieftes Wissen und Know-how in einem Spezialgebiet. Zusammen mit anderen Pflegefachpersonen entwickeln diese klinisch tätigen, wissenschaftlich- und praxisorientierten Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) die Pflegepraxis in der Schweiz weiter, insbesondere für chronisch kranke oder geriatrische Patienten. Bis zu 25 % der über 80-jährigen Menschen erfahren jährlich mindestens einen Spitalaufenthalt. Neben dem akuten Einlieferungsgrund leiden sie oft an zusätzlichen chronischen Erkrankungen, welche gleichzeitig exazerbieren. Diese fragilen Patienten benötigen Unterstützung durch Pflegende, welche erweiterte gerontologische Pflege anbieten können. In der akutgeriatrischen Universitätsklinik Basel findet unter der Leitung einer APN eine systematische, kontinuierliche und effektive Praxisentwicklung statt, welche eine personenorientierte und geriatrisch-spezialisierte Pflege fördert. Die Prinzipien der Aktionsforschung leiten das Praxisentwicklungsprojekt. Der zyklische Prozess «Look-Think-Act» fördert die kritische Auseinandersetzung mit der Praxis. Erste Resultate zeigen eine kürzere Aufenthaltsdauer und verbesserte Betreuungsresultate bei den Patienten sowie eine erhöhte Arbeitszufriedenheit und Selbstwirksamkeit aus Sicht der Pflegenden. Mit dem vorliegenden Artikel wird die Geschichte von ANP kurz eingeführt und anschließend werden die Entwicklung und Einführung des Projekts sowie erste Resultate der Evaluation dargestellt.
