Abstract:
Since its creation nearly a decade ago, the Digital Curation Centre (DCC) Curation Lifecycle Model has become the quintessential framework for understanding digital curation. Organizations and consortia around the world have used the DCC Curation Lifecycle Model as a tool to ensure that all the necessary stages of digital curation are undertaken, to define roles and responsibilities, and to build a framework of standards and technologies for digital curation. Yet, research on the application of the model to large-scale digitization projects as a way of understanding their efforts at digital cu

This postcolonial “Ethno-Story” narrative weaves through the unwilled constructs (dreams) of two protagonists/recent graduate students—an Indian Muslim man and a (Caucasian) American woman—working/living at the intersection of media, self, and nation. It explores the inner dynamics of personhood (and couplehood) through intersecting narratives of the self with those of mass-mediated images and realities in an age of terrorism and ethnoreligious confilct.

Abstract:
The sense of a nation as a cohesive entity bound by a distinct language, culture, and traditions has been increasingly challenged in the age of globalization. Any discussion of national identity unfolds on a ground which is complicated and fluid. It is often defined by mass migrations across volatile regions and immigration debates within most organized societies, and also contingent upon unforeseen roles played by social media in crucial fields of politics, democratic participation, and communication. India’s national identity has undergone a drastic transformation in the era of globalization

Abstract:
Introduction and Aim: Increased carotid artery intima media thickness (CIMT) has been linked to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in India. Increased CIMT has been documented in Hypertension (HT), thus putting them at a higher risk of CVD. Early identification and awareness of risk factors leading to increased morbidity and mortality could help in reducing its incidence. The aim of the study was to measure CIMTin prehypertensive Indian population.

Abstract:
Political organizations worldwide keep innovating their use of social media technologies. In the 2019 Indian general election, organizers used a network of WhatsApp groups to manipulate Twitter trends through coordinated mass postings. We joined 600 WhatsApp groups that support the Bharatiya Janata Party, the right-wing party that won the general election, to investigate these campaigns. We found evidence of 75 hashtag manipulation campaigns in the form of mobilization messages with lists of pre-written tweets. Building on this evidence, we estimate the campaigns' size, describe their organiza

This ancient language, considered to be the mother language of a majority of Indian languages, today appears to be fighting a losing battle with only about 14,000 people in India claiming Sanskrit as their mother tongue in a country of over 1.2 billion people, as the 2011 census data reveal. In an era increasingly engulfed by the forces of globalization amidst the debates surrounding linguistic homogenization and cultural neo-imperialism, mass media as well as various digital media platforms, including social media can contribute towards restoring the rich literary tradition of the Sanskrit la
