Hochschulerfinderrecht
by Louis Pahlow Klaus Ferdinand GärditzMit dem Wegfall des Hochschullehrerprivilegs 2002 kommen auf die deutschen Hochschulen neue Aufgaben zu. Forschungsergebnisse müssen nun auf Ihre Verwertbarkeit geprüft, Patentanmeldungen getätigt und zahlungskräftige Abnehmer gefunden werden. Zudem stellen sich ganz neue Fragen in Bezug auf die Lehr- und Forschungsfreiheit, die Einwerbung von Drittmitteln und die Kooperationen mit außeruniversitären Forschungseinrichtungen sowie der Industrie. Das vorliegende Handbuch will die genannten Fragenkreise im Spannungsfeld von öffentlichem Dienstrecht, Hochschulrecht einerseits, dem Recht des Geistigen Eigentums andererseits umfassend beantworten. Das Werk richtet sich an die Praxis in den Hochschulen, aber auch in der Industrie und Rechtsberatung.

Hoe soorten anders oud worden
by Anca IovițăVeroudering is een puzzel die opgelost kan worden. Het proces van veroudering wordt van oudsher bestudeerd in enkele biologische modelorganismen zoals fruitvliegjes, wormen en muizen. Wat al deze soorten gemeen hebben is hun korte levensduur. Voor een laboratoriumstudie op een budget is dit ideaal. Het is een goede strategie voor de korte termijn. Wie heeft er nou tijd om soorten te bestuderen die decennia leven? Maar verschillen in levensduur tussen soorten zijn vele malen groter dan de variatie in levensduur die in het lab kan worden aangetoond. Daarom heb ik talloze informatiebronnen bestudeerd in een poging veel uiterst specialistisch onderzoek samen te brengen in één goed leesbaar boek. Ik wilde door de bomen het bos weer kunnen zien. Ik wilde in enkele duidelijke en logische stappen openbaren hoe soorten anders oud worden. Dit boek is mijn poging om dat te doen. Welke mechanismen staan aan de basis van deze ongelijkheid in veroudering tussen soorten? Hoe worden soorten anders oud? Ik heb er opzettelijk voor gekozen het antwoord op deze vraag in eenvoudige taal te formuleren. Onderzoek naar veroudering is te belangrijk om te verhullen met formeel wetenschappelijk jargon. Dit boek zou niet hebben bestaan zonder de uitvinding van groene thee, bibliotheken en het internet. De hoeveelheid data die ik heb doorgespit om de essentiële patronen te achterhalen is immens. Toch is dit boek niet uitputtend. Het is geen droog academisch handboek. Ik heb geprobeerd een onderwerp levendig te maken dat ontzettend belangrijk is voor het verlengen van het menselijke leven. Jij alleen kunt bepalen of ik hierin geslaagd ben. ********** Inhoudsopgave ********** Door de bomen het bos terugvinden Betrouwbaar is goed De wiskunde van de veroudering De snelheid van senescentie Case: veroudering bij vissen Hoe schat je chronologische leeftijd Rustig aan Tem

Holding Fast to Dreams
by Freeman A. Hrabowski IIIAn education leader relates how his experiences with the civil rights movement led him to develop programs promoting educational success in science and technology for African Americans and others. When Freeman Hrabowski was twelve years old, a civil rights leader visited his Birmingham, Alabama, church and spoke about a children's march for civil rights and opportunity. That leader was the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., and that march changed Hrabowski's life. Until then, Freeman was a kid who loved school and solving math problems. Although his family had always stressed the importance of education, he never expected that the world might change and that black and white students would one day study together. But hearing King speak changed everything for Hrabowski, who convinced his parents that he needed to answer King's call to stand up for equality. While participating in the famed Children's Crusade, he spent five terrifying nights in jail--during which Freeman became a leader for the younger kids, as he learned about the risk and sacrifice that it would take to fight for justice. Hrabowski went on to fuse his passion for education and for equality, as he made his life's work inspiring high academic achievement among students of all races in science and engineering. It also brought him from Birmingham to Baltimore, where he has been president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County for more than two decades. While at UMBC, he co-founded the Meyerhoff Scholars Program, which has been one of the most successful programs for educating African Americans who go on to earn doctorates in the STEM disciplines. In Holding Fast to Dreams, Hrabowski recounts his journey as an educator, a university president, and a pioneer in developing successful, holistic programs for high-achieving students of all races.From the Hardcover edition.
Holding Hands with Bacteria
by Soňa ŠtrbáňováThis biographical brief outlines the remarkable life and career of British biochemist, Marjory Stephenson (1885-1948). In nine concise chapters, StrbáÅ^ová describes Stephenson's scientific accomplishments and sets these against the socio-political challenges of the time. Stephenson played an important role in the development of biochemistry and molecular biology. She was one of the first scientists to use microorganisms as models for research into cellular biochemical processes and their regulation. Later she went on to coin the term chemical microbiology, which was communicated in her monograph and textbook "Bacterial Metabolism" (1930-1949). Stephenson also actively participated in the establishment of the institutionalized interdisciplinary field of general microbiology which integrated research into diverse forms of microorganisms at various levels of organization. Alongside these scientific achievements, StrbáÅ^ová outlines Stephenson's constant battle with practices of undeclared discrimination, her important role as one of the first women science managers and organizers, and her influential position within the scientific community. A scientist of great merit and a role model to women scientists of all disciplines, the life of Marjory Stephenson is of interest to biochemists, molecular biologists, historians of the chemical and biological sciences, and women scientists of all generations.
Holding Onto Air: The Art and Science of Building a Resilient Spirit
by Michele DeMarco, PhDA top mental health writer, trauma researcher, and survivor illuminates the dual nature of loss—the science behind it and art of transforming it with a breakthrough book and truly holistic approach.After experiencing two rare heart attacks at the age of 33—and a third a decade later, DeMarco knows trauma intimately. Trauma breaks your relationship with time by upending your expectations, fracturing your memories and identity, and destroying your innocence.With poignant wisdom and refreshing insight DeMarco explodes traditional myths of resilience and shows what it takes to thrive through any of life's challenges. DeMarco situates meaningful challenge and loss specifically in the context of "lost innocence," and challenges common notions that we can think our way out of despair and back to a "normal" happy life when the unimaginable shatters it. Leveraging advances in emotion science, somatic psychology, neuroscience, and trauma, Holding Onto Air brings the body and spirit into the solution, as much as the mind, and so presents a truly integrated, "whole person" approach to recovering from lost innocence and building resilience. It also makes spirit accessible for anyone of any background or belief—or no aligned belief.More than a rudimentary map for navigating grief and loss' rocky terrain (with tired tropes and shop-worn strategies), DeMarco offers a unique and trusted guide for an arduous journey every human being will have to face—the realization of evil, pain, or mortality that occurs after a person experiences trauma.

Holiday Hunger in the UK: Local Responses to Childhood Food Insecurity (Routledge Studies in Food, Society and the Environment)
by Paul B. Stretesky Michael A. Long Margaret Anne DefeyterThis timely and much-needed book focuses on the phenomenon often referred to as "holiday hunger" in the United Kingdom. The book begins by outlining the history and scope of holiday hunger – the condition that occurs when a child’s household is, or will become, food insecure during the summer holidays. The decline of the UK welfare state and the rise of neoliberalism have created a situation where up to three million children in the UK face food insecurity during the summer months when there are extra financial pressures on the working poor and when free school meals are not available. This book details the level of childhood and household food insecurity in the UK and describes one of the main responses to holiday hunger – holiday clubs. These clubs are locally organised and funded and provide a place for children to go to eat nutritious meals for free during the school holidays. Highlighting the benefits of holiday clubs that often extend beyond food provision, this book also discusses the challenges that they face now and in the future. The book concludes with recommendations for food insecurity policy and the role of government in fighting holiday hunger. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of food and nutrition security, social policy and public health.
