The membership of the Commission, as of its 50th anniversary in 1998, stands at 146 members and 19 consultants. In order to increase communications, during the report period the President issued six Newsletters to Commission members, consultants, and IAU officers. In a further attempt to increase communications, Commission 41 also instituted a web site (http://www.astro.uni-bonn.de/~pbrosche/iaucomm41/) in early 1998. This was largely due to the efforts of C41 Organizing Committee member Wolfgang Dick and the kindness of Professor Peter Brosche in supplying space. The site not only contains the Newsletters, meeting notices, and a list of members, but also the Bibliography on History of Astronomy, compiled by Ruth Preitag of the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. The site also links to the history of astronomy site maintained for several years by the History of Astronomy Working Group of the Astronomische Gesellschaft, and now also maintained on behalf of Commission 41. These sites serve not only for better communication among Commission members, but also the broader history of astronomy community.

The interview reveals modern art history’s main trends identified within the framework of the conference “Art History in the Context of Other Sciences in the Modern World. Parallels and Interactions”. The Russian State Library and the scientific journal “Observatory of Culture” were partners in organizing the conference in 2019. The method of academic interviewing used in this publication provides an opportunity to reveal the personal vision of the conference project’s author and co-chairman of the Organizing Committee, chairman of the Program Committee, head of the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences of the Institute of Contemporary Art, chief researcher of the GITR Film & Television School, expert of the Times Higher Education World University Rankings, member of the Russian Expert Council (ASEP/Scopus), D.Sc. (Art History), professor Grigoriy R. Konson. In fact, the interview is a quintessence of the author’s policy document on the development of culture, science and education in modern society.The academic forum was a socially significant event of international scale, characterized by the latest scientific and educational trends in Russia and foreign countries, as well as by art studies integration into the context of interdisciplinary research located at the intersection of art history, philology, linguistics, philosophy, cultural studies and psychology. As a result, there are prospects for reaching the level of cross-sectoral conceptualization of research generalizations. The interview reveals the topical issues of science functioning in the modern international society. There is concluded that the scientific integration characterizing the conference “Art History in the Context of Other Sciences in the Modern World. Parallels and Interactions” is a progressive method in understanding the essence of art, permeated by multi-vector trends in the global humanitarian process. Therefore, the joint efforts of scientists here contribute to the development of an antidote to destructive trends in the socio-cultural life of modern society.

Joint Discussion 1 was supported by Division IV (Stars) and Commission 29 (Stellar Spectra), and co-supported by Commissions 28 (Galaxies), 36 (Theory of Stellar Atmospheres) and 37 (Stellar Clusters and Associations). Members of the scientific organizing committee were: N. Arimoto (Japan), B. Barbuy (Brazil), T. Beers (USA), J. Bergeron (Germany), M. Bessell (Australia), R. Cayrel (France), G. Gilmore (UK), B. Gustafsson (Sweden), F. Matteucci (Italy), P. Nissen (Den-mark), and M. Rich (USA).The inspiration for this meeting was the growing overlap and connections between previously separate areas of astrophysical research, namely, studies of stellar abundances, the bulges of galaxies, the gaseous components of nearby galaxies and the clouds (some of which may be primordial) responsible for the narrow absorption lines in quasars.The signature of the early chemical evolution of our Galaxy is imprinted in the abundance ratios of the oldest stars. We recall that element ratios are determined by a mix of the relative rates of different types of supernovae, the stellar IMF, and the relative histories of star formation rates and gaseous flows, and thus encapsulate much of the history of star formation and ISM evolution in galaxies. Hence, abundance ratios in stars are a primary probe for testing theories of galaxy formation and evolution.We do not know how the Galaxy formed: both the Eggen, Lynden-Bell & Sandage (1962) and the Searle & Zinn (1978) scenarios may be accommodated in the recent proposal of van den Bergh (1993) where the inner Galaxy follows ELS, whereas the outer Galaxy formation conforms to the Searle-Zinn proposition. A combination of abundance ratios, ages derived from colour-magnitude diagrams, and kinematical properties, can give us the required information to trace the past history of our Galaxy. We note here, that although stellar evolution and model atmospheres are not discussed in the proceedings both topics are of fundamental underlying importance. Model atmospheres are used to derive temperatures, colors and bolometric corrections of stars that are used not only in abundance analyses but also in deriving the ages of stars by comparing CM diagrams with HR diagrams. This process is under close scrutiny because of the apparent difference between the ages of the oldest stars and the expansion age of the universe.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe Arctic Environmental Protection Strategy (the forerunner of the Arctic Council) and the Northern Forum are both products of the sea change in Arctic politics occurring in the wake of the end of the Cold War. Both are soft law arrangements and both are lightly institutionalized. Yet these similarities have not provided a basis for collaboration between the Arctic Council (AC) and the Northern Forum (NF). For the most part, the two bodies have behaved like ships passing in the night. This article seeks to explain this lack of collaboration and to evaluate future prospects in this realm. The lack of collaboration is attributable in part to a number of sources of tension or fault lines, including issues relating to core-periphery relations, the concerns of indigenous peoples, divergent constituencies, the Russian connection, and bureaucratic politics and the complexities of political leadership. In part, it stems from ambiguities about the status of the AC and the NF combined with restrictions on the roles these bodies can play. There is little prospect of combining the two bodies into a more comprehensive Arctic regime. But there are opportunities to devise a realistic division of labor and to develop useful coordination mechanisms. The AC, for example, is the appropriate vehicle for efforts to strengthen the voice of the Arctic regarding global issues; the NF is well-suited to dealing with matters of community viability. Ultimately, the two bodies might consider creating a joint working group on sustainable development or organizing occasional joint meetings of the AC's Senior Arctic Officials and the NF's Executive Committee.

Professor Oscar Saavedra San Martin passed away on 8 April 2018 at Bonvicino-Italy. The Organizing Committee of the 20th International Symposium on Very High Energy Cosmic Rays-ISVHECRI-2018, held in Nagoya, Japan decided to pay a tribute to Oscar, born on 29 June, 1940 at LaPaz, Bolivia. During the banquet, a small presentation in honour to Oscar was scheduled in a special section of Wednesday 23 May 2018. His last participation was at the 19th ISVHECRI held in Moscow, Russian Federation, during the period 22-27 August 2016. Oscar joined the BASJE-Bolivian Air Shower Joint Experiment in 1966, a collaboration between Bolivia and Japan. The aim of BASJE was to search for high energy γ's coming mainly from the center of Galaxy, due to the Chacaltaya location. From 1967 to 1968 he served as Director of the Cosmic Ray Laboratory at Chacaltaya following the BASJE experiments. Due to his huge contribution to Bolivian Science, Oscar received in 2009 the Doctor Honoris Causa title and was nominated Scientific Ambassador of his motherland. He gained his Doctorate from Milan University in 1964 and after immigration to Italy was a staff member of Torino University. On his retirement Torino University awarded him the title of Emeritus Professor.

Art and science are both terms whose meanings have been subject to change over time. At the end of the twentieth century, the terms tend to be used antithetically. Current views of the relationship between the spheres of activity that they connote range from a sweeping dismissal of any connection to an opposing but less extreme conviction that scientists and artists have something in common. The latter belief apparently at least partly stems from an underlying feeling that at any one time both activities are, after all, products of a single culture. The woolly shade of C. P. Snow's idea of there being ‘two cultures’ in the Britain of the 1950s at once rises to view if one attempts to pursue analysis along these lines.In setting up a conference called ‘The Visual Culture of Art and Science from the Renaissance to the Present’ the organizing committee was not attempting to resolve any kind of debate that may be perceived to exist in regard to the separation or otherwise of the domains of art and science. Rather, we wished to bring together historians of science working on areas that are of interest to historians of art, and historians of art working on areas that are of interest to historians of science, as well as practising artists and scientists of the present time who show an interest in each others' fields. We were, of course, aware that this agenda raised questions in regard to present-day relationships between art and science, but we hoped that, as we were dealing with a range of historical periods, any light that was shed would be moderately illuminating rather than blindingly lurid. The meeting, which took place on 12–14 July 1995, mainly at the Royal Society in London, was organized jointly by the British Society for the History of Science, the Association of Art Historians and the Committee on the Public Understanding of Science (COPUS) – a joint committee of the Royal Institution, British Association and the Royal Society. The historical examples presented at the conference showed a wide variety of interactions between art and science. The success of the conference (it attracted an audience of about 200) suggested very strongly that art, which has a large public following, can be used to encourage an interest in science, whose public following, according to scientists, could be better.

The 17th International Conference on Organic Synthesis (ICOS 17) was held in Daejeon, Korea during 22-27 June 2008 under the joint chairmanship of Prof. Eun Lee (Seoul National University) and Prof. Sunggak Kim (Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology). Professor Sung Ho Kang (Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) acted as Chair of the Organizing Committee for the event, which is the latest in a regular biennial series that was initiated in 1974 under the auspices of IUPAC. On this occasion, the Korean Chemical Society acted as cosponsors, and the Conference enjoyed generous financial support from the Korean Research Foundation, the Korean Federation of Science and Technology Societies, and a sponsorship club representing Korean industries.Almost 1000 participants, including 412 foreign scientists, attended from 32 countries, once again demonstrating the ongoing international appeal and topicality of organic synthesis. The scientific program of ICOS 17 was characterized by in-depth coverage of many familiar aspects of the topic, such as synthetic methodology, natural products synthesis, bioorganic chemistry, chemical biology, organic materials, and medicinal chemistry. The program was delineated in five broad themes entitled:- Discovery of new reagents and reactions- Challenges and new trends in natural products synthesis- Prospects in bioorganic chemistry and chemical biology- Visions in organic materials researches- Events in drug discovery and process developmentA total of 51 invited lectures were delivered; in addition to 36 from academia, 13 emanated from industry and 2 from research institutes. A highlight of the lecture program was the Thieme-IUPAC prize lecture presented by Prof. Dean Toste (University of California, Berkeley, USA). The poster program was particularly well supported, and no less than 533 posters were presented during two sessions.This issue of Pure and Applied Chemistry comprises a collection of 12 papers based on lectures delivered at ICOS 17. The organizers are particularly grateful to all who contributed to this issue for their timely efforts. The topics of these papers feature some of the major themes of the conference and thus furnish a representative insight into the scientific program and capture exciting new developments and trends. This series will continue in Bergen, Norway on 2-5 August 2010, and it is confidently expected that it will continue to fulfill an important scientific role in highlighting ongoing advances in modern organic synthesis.Sang-gi LeeConference Editor

Since moving into a shared building in 2009, the Biochemical Society (BS), British Ecological Society (BES) and Society for Experimental Biology (SEB) have worked together on a portfolio of joint ventures. The first joint Society conference took place in January at Charles Darwin House, London, and proved to be a great start to 2011 and the Biochemical Society Centenary celebrations. Organizing a joint conference between Societies can be a challenge and a workable model for joint events takes time to agree. Publication rights need to be discussed and budgets approved. In addition, the operational aspects of running joint events often mean that each Society must amend its practices, procedures and culture. On top of that, to keep the event truly joint, care must be taken at every stage of the planning process to ensure the science is cross-disciplinary, and that sessions are not biased towards one of the organizing Societies. Undeterred, the three Societies committed to running a joint conference, and agreed that maintaining communications every step of the way was the key to success. Regular planning meetings were helped in no small part by the fact that we can now holler over our shared office space at Charles Darwin House!

Title: The Implementation of Management Functions at Islamic Education Institutions (Case Study of Islahul Muta’allim Islamic Elementary School [MI] Management of Pagutan)
Abstract: The objectives of this research are to describe and analyze the implementation of management functions in the management of Islahul Muta’allim Islamic Elementary School of Pagutan in Mataram city. To find the data, researcher used the data collection techniques namely: participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. While for data analysis, researcher used data analysis techniques of interactive model developed by Miles and Huberman (1994). The conclusion of this research are; 1) Implementation of the planning function in the management of Islahul Muta’allim Islamic Elementary School is carried out with a mechanism of determination of the directions and objectives to be achieved by the school (madrasah), namely by determining the vision, mission and planned activities in the management of school (madrasah). The people involved in the planning of the school management program are the head of foundation, principal, teachers, and committees. 2) The implementation of the organizing function in the management of Islahul Muta’allim Islamic Elementary School is carried out with a mechanism of the distribution of jobs and responsibilities to the entire school civitas academica through the job sharing meeting for the all teachers and employees before the new school academic year is started. The facilities and equipments needed in the implementation of job are prepared by the school to support the school activities. Whereas for the determination of work methods and procedures, it is carried out based on the family system with the aim that all activities carried out are not neglected when there is a teacher who cannot fulfill the obligation for certain reasons. 3) The implementation of the supervisory function in the management of Islahul Muta’allim Islamic Elementary School is done by controlling the quantity and quality of personnel work, namely by conducting class supervision. For the investigation technique of the work relevance with school planning, it is done by discussing together to the problems which are considered heavy on the programs which have been undertaken and discussing problems through teacher and principal work meetings. While the budget use audit is carried out by prioritizing kinship carried out through joint meetings of school committee.

The Young Life Scientists (YLS) project aims to give a group of earlycareer researchers the opportunity to organize a scientific conference on their subject of interest, for their peers. This year's symposia consisted of two different topics. The first, a joint project run with the Physiological Society and the British Phar macological Society, was based on asthma and its treatments. The second, sponsored by the Biochemical Society only, was based on the role of fatty acids in health and disease, confront ing the beneficial and detrimental effects on the human body. Overall, the YLS meetings reached nearly 200 students and young researchers this year; both events were a great success with the organizing committees doing a great job.

Natural products chemistry primarily involves research on organic compounds produced by plants, animals, and microorganisms, and focuses not only on the determination of chemical structures and biosynthesis, but also on chemical synthesis and the development of stereoselective chemical reactions. In recent years, developments have spread to the field of molecular biology in particular, as indicated by the investigation of the relationship between the structure and activity of biologically active substances, in addition to the elucidation of the mechanisms of biological effects at the molecular level. These achievements have facilitated corresponding progress in other related sciences, and have contributed significantly to developments in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and other industries.Meanwhile, the science of biodiversity focuses on objectives such as the search for active ingredients in organisms and the preservation of species and diversity, from a scientific perspective. These two fields are closely related in their respective focuses on the diversity of organisms and the diversity of metabolic products, and it is for this reason that the respective conferences on biodiversity and natural products chemistry have come to be merged, starting with the preceding event in the series, held in India. I believe that this joint approach is highly beneficial, and sincerely hope that this conference has provided opportunities for exchange of a diverse range of information between the respective researchers and has contributed to further global development of these fields.This conference was held at the Kyoto International Conference Hall on 23-28 July 2006, and was officially sponsored by IUPAC and hosted by the Science Council of Japan jointly with the Chemical Society of Japan, the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan, and the Japan Society for Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Agrochemistry. In addition to 17 plenary speakers, lectures were also delivered by 77 invitees of various generations, and 580 posters were presented, primarily by younger delegates, of which 72 were supplemented by oral presentations. In order to broadly examine various topics relating to each aspect of the field of natural products chemistry, discussions were conducted by classifying this diverse field into the following eight themes, thereby promoting interactions between researchers and cooperation between related fields.- Isolation and Structure Elucidation of Natural Products- Synthesis of Natural Products and their Models- Biosynthesis and Genetic Engineering on Natural Products- Spectroscopy in Natural Products Chemistry- Molecular Mode of Action on Natural Products and Drugs- Chemical Biology and Related Areas- Chemistry and Biochemistry Related to Biodiversity- Drug Diversity and DevelopmentsApproximately 1200 participants from 31 countries and regions attended this conference, and exhibits from a total of 26 companies were presented in the concurrently held exhibition. In addition, pre- and post-symposia were held in Nagoya, Tokushima, Sapporo, Sendai, Fukuoka, and Tokyo, and the 48th Symposium of a regular series on the Chemistry of Natural Products (in Sendai) also took advantage of the opportunity to promote more diverse and closer interactions. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the aforementioned hosts, co-hosts, and many other organizations and individuals for their support, without which this conference would not have been possible. Finally, it is my sincere hope that this conference has provided opportunities for the future advancement of natural products chemistry and biodiversity science.Daisuke UemuraChairman, Organizing Committee

We have just finished an excellent Symposium, and at this point there is no more any discussion or arguments when we all join in gratitude to the supporting staff at the meeting as well as to the scientific and local organizing committees. The Symposium has for me been like a school, where I have found myself -except for 11 too short minutes- on the appropriate side of the teacher's desk, the student side. The teachers were outstanding! Our special thanks go to the Principal of this school, Dr. Giusa Cayrel, and as a small token of gratitude I would like to present her with a copy of the solar flux atlas. Dr. Cayrel, you are dear to us and we thank you very much!

Despite the area's notable heterogeneity, the North Central Regional Transit District (NCRTD) is the first regional transit district (RTD) certified in New Mexico. The NCRTD contains the state's largest and smallest pueblos, the poorest and richest counties, and rural communities steeped in 500-year-old Spanish traditions near the New Age cosmopolitanism of Santa Fe. The diverse geographical, political, and economic landscape of the NCRTD can make it difficult to pursue new or ambitious projects across the disparate jurisdictions. Organizational and jurisdictional barriers can create roadblocks to effective collaboration. The New Mexico Department of Transportation Research Bureau provided funds to develop a case study and model that could be followed by other potential RTDs in the state. As the organizing and research entity, the Alliance for Transportation Research Institute of the University of New Mexico was charged with developing the RTD model and staffing the effort. An organizing committee, representing public and private interests, was tasked with producing the certification documents and supporting materials, presenting them clearly and effectively to governing bodies and the public, and providing an example of crossjurisdictional transit collaboration. Creation of the NCRTD required public hearings in every jurisdiction. One-on-one “study sessions” raised public awareness in every jurisdiction and fueled the process for obtaining the needed affirmative votes to join the NCRTD. The NCRTD, composed of 10 initial members, has completed the necessary steps for creating an RTD and was certified by the New Mexico Transportation Commission in autumn 2004 as the first RTD in New Mexico.

Abstract Background.—Under the auspices of the College of American Pathologists, the current state of knowledge regarding pathologic prognostic factors (factors linked to outcome) and predictive factors (factors predicting response to therapy) in colorectal carcinoma was evaluated. A multidisciplinary group of clinical (including the disciplines of medical oncology, surgical oncology, and radiation oncology), pathologic, and statistical experts in colorectal cancer reviewed all relevant medical literature and stratified the reported prognostic factors into categories that reflected the strength of the published evidence demonstrating their prognostic value. Accordingly, the following categories of prognostic factors were defined. Category I includes factors definitively proven to be of prognostic import based on evidence from multiple statistically robust published trials and generally used in patient management. Category IIA includes factors extensively studied biologically and/or clinically and repeatedly shown to have prognostic value for outcome and/or predictive value for therapy that is of sufficient import to be included in the pathology report but that remains to be validated in statistically robust studies. Category IIB includes factors shown to be promising in multiple studies but lacking sufficient data for inclusion in category I or IIA. Category III includes factors not yet sufficiently studied to determine their prognostic value. Category IV includes factors well studied and shown to have no prognostic significance. Materials and Methods.—The medical literature was critically reviewed, and the analysis revealed specific points of variability in approach that prevented direct comparisons among published studies and compromised the quality of the collective data. Categories of variability recognized included the following: (1) methods of analysis, (2) interpretation of findings, (3) reporting of data, and (4) statistical evaluation. Additional points of variability within these categories were defined from the collective experience of the group. Reasons for the assignment of an individual prognostic factor to category I, II, III, or IV (categories defined by the level of scientific validation) were outlined with reference to the specific types of variability associated with the supportive data. For each factor and category of variability related to that factor, detailed recommendations for improvement were made. The recommendations were based on the following aims: (1) to increase the uniformity and completeness of pathologic evaluation of tumor specimens, (2) to enhance the quality of the data needed for definitive evaluation of the prognostic value of individual prognostic factors, and (3) ultimately, to improve patient care. Results and Conclusions.—Factors that were determined to merit inclusion in category I were as follows: the local extent of tumor assessed pathologically (the pT category of the TNM staging system of the American Joint Committee on Cancer and the Union Internationale Contre le Cancer [AJCC/UICC]); regional lymph node metastasis (the pN category of the TNM staging system); blood or lymphatic vessel invasion; residual tumor following surgery with curative intent (the R classification of the AJCC/UICC staging system), especially as it relates to positive surgical margins; and preoperative elevation of carcinoembryonic antigen elevation (a factor established by laboratory medicine methods rather than anatomic pathology). Factors in category IIA included the following: tumor grade, radial margin status (for resection specimens with nonperitonealized surfaces), and residual tumor in the resection specimen following neoadjuvant therapy (the ypTNM category of the TNM staging system of the AJCC/UICC). Factors in category IIB included the following: histologic type, histologic features associated with microsatellite instability (MSI) (ie, host lymphoid response to tumor and medullary or mucinous histologic type), high degree of MSI (MSI-H), loss of heterozygosity at 18q (DCC gene allelic loss), and tumor border configuration (infiltrating vs pushing border). Factors grouped in category III included the following: DNA content, all other molecular markers except loss of heterozygosity 18q/DCC and MSI-H, perineural invasion, microvessel density, tumor cell–associated proteins or carbohydrates, peritumoral fibrosis, peritumoral inflammatory response, focal neuroendocrine differentiation, nuclear organizing regions, and proliferation indices. Category IV factors included tumor size and gross tumor configuration. This report records findings and recommendations of the consensus conference group, organized according to structural guidelines defined herein.

Full textAbstract:
OBJECTIVEWithin neurosurgery, there are fewer women than men at all levels. The authors aimed to assess whether opportunities and representation within neurosurgery are proportional to the existing gender gap.METHODSThe authors analyzed the program of the 2019 joint European Association of Neurosurgical Societies (EANS)/Society of British Neurological Surgeons (SBNS) conference to assess the proportions of presentations given through abstract submission and invitation by men and women. They compared proportions to the previous joint conference in 2007 and to the gender proportions of board-certified European neurosurgeons.RESULTSWomen delivered 75/577 (13%) presentations at the 2019 EANS/SBNS conference: 54/283 (19%) abstract submissions and 21/294 (7%) invited presentations. Fifteen of 152 (10%) session chairs were women. This increased significantly from 4/121 (3%) presentations delivered by women in 2007. When only presentations given by neurosurgeons (residents or consultants) were analyzed, the proportion of female speakers increased from 1/111 (1%) in 2007 to 60/545 (11%) in 2019. Pediatrics was the subspecialty with the highest proportion of invited female speakers. Across subspecialties, there were no differences in gender proportions for presentations from abstract submissions. Across the top 5 participating European countries, the proportion of female invited speakers (8%) and chairs (8%) was half the proportion of female board-certified neurosurgeons (16%).CONCLUSIONSThe proportion of women delivering invited presentations and chairing sessions at a European neurosurgical conference is lower than expected from the available pool of board-certified neurosurgeons. The proportion of women participating is higher through application (abstract submission) than through invitation. The higher proportion of presentations from abstract submission may reflect submission from a pool of trainees with a higher proportion of women. The authors suggest implementation of strategies that increase invited speakers from minority groups and have been shown to be effective in other disciplines, such as improving minority group representation in organizing committees.

Full textAbstract:
The article is dedicated to the twentieth anniversary of two Internet physics olympiads organized by the Physics Department of Novosibirsk State University, in which senior pupils from Russia and the USA participated. For the time when before the advent of popular social networks there were a few more years when the currently popular messengers were not yet widespread, the organization of such competitions was technically and organizationally far from a trivial task. It was also necessary to overcome the problem of different programs and different levels of school physics teaching in Russia and the USA, as well as the problem of the language barrier. All these tasks were successfully solved by the joint efforts of the Russian and American organizing committees, and in 1999 the competitions Novosibirsk – San Diego and in 2000 Novosibirsk – St. Petersburg – San Diego – Seattle were held. A successful invention that allowed equalizing the chances of teams and replacing interethnic rivalry with cooperation was the idea to hold competitions between international teams, consisting of an equal number of Russian and American schoolchildren communicating with each other via direct video communication. Sets of tasks were prepared for the olympiads, both ordinary, written, and video clips with tasks-demonstrations. The latter have been particularly successful in resolving the problem of the language barrier. The great help in conducting these two Olympiads was the many years of experience gained by NSU during the All-Siberian Olympiads and the idea of the demonstration tasks used in entrance examinations at the Physics Department of NSU. We present in this article both the content of the tasks of the Olympiads and the responses of the domestic and American press to the events described.

On behalf of the entire the international conference Innovations in Cancer Research and Regenerative Medicine 2017 (CRRM2017) Organizing Committee, we would like to extend to you a warm welcome to Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam to join the 3rd international conference of CRRM. We are very glad to announce that this time, CRRM has made some exciting changes with more plenary sessions, more sessions, more oral invited speakers and especially a day of pre-conference. With two main topics of cancer research and regenerative medicine, this conference has many sessions organized into some parallel sessions with different topics of cancer research and regenerative medicine. By doing so, the audience can arrange their time for networking and speaking to our commercial partners. From the basic science to clinical trials, all sessions at the conference will cover from gene to human body. Therefore, we believe that every session will provide exciting presentations for attendees at all levels from students to scientists/researchers. With this conference, all authors not only share their latest results, but also can publish their works in the reputed journals. That is a reason why the keywords for this conference is Share & Publish. Like many developing countries, Vietnam has no shortage of health challenges, from infectious diseases such as annual flu epidemics to rising rates of unmet and chronic illnesses such as cancers and diabetes. Vietnam also has to contend with increasing drug resistance for killer diseases including AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. There is, however, increasing evidence that Vietnamese researchers are tackling the challenges of harnessing biotechnology to improve health care for healthier society as well as advancing the sciences. The biomedicine progresses in Cancer Research, and Regenerative Medicine in Vietnam include gene diagnostics for genetic disorders of human diseases, infectious pathogens; in-vitro production of therapeutic proteins including insulin, IFNs or biosimilar forms of monoclonal antibodies for targeted therapies; biomaterials; cell therapy; stem cell therapy and tissue engineering. In this conference, with 14 sessions of 100 oral presentations and 100 poster presentations, all latest topics of cancer research and regenerative medicine will be covered. New biomarkers of cancers, immunotherapy strategy for cancers and stem cells as well as tissue engineering are hot topics of CRRM2017. In addition to the conference program, there is an extensive set of pre-conference and lunch-on innovation showcases for on 10th and 11th Sept, respectively. We are very grateful for the support from sponsors for the CRRM2017. More vents will be taking place in the exhibition area, and we encourage attendees to take advantage of the opportunities to visit the exhibit booths and corporate symposia. We wish to thank everyone who helped so enthusiastically in the organization of the conference. Our thanks also go out to all of the speakers who have generously agreed to share their research results and experiences at this conference. We hope that you will enjoy this meeting and have a wonderful time here in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam.

Full textAbstract:
Episciences (https://www.episciences.org/) is a hosting platform of open access journals created in 2013 and developed by the Center for Direct Scientific Communication (CCSD), a joint unit of French public research organisms (CNRS, INRIA, INRA and Lyon University).The Episciences project is organized with a steering committee and epi-committees, whose role is to promote the creation of editorial committees. It is built as an overlay (epi-) publishing service upon an open repository, currently arXiv and HAL. The platform is free of charge and offers a comprehensive set of tools for managing the journal, from organizing peer reviewing to disseminating its contents. Episciences allows research communities to experiment with innovative ways to publish and disseminate contents: authors first submit their preprints in an open archive and then submit them to the overlay journal of their choice.Episciences now hosts 11 journals in Mathematics, Informatics, Social and Human sciences. There are new journals originally created in Episciences and existing journals that have migrated on it.In April 2018 – five years after the launch of Episciences – the CCSD conducted a survey of the editorial teams regarding their uses of Episciences and their expectations. The survey was a Google Form sent to the chief editors of the 11 active journals. The objective was to collect at least one answer for each journal, representative of the positions of the editorial team. All the 11 teams have answered. The survey was intended to test their satisfaction, to better know how they use the main software features, and to test their opinion about emerging practices such as open peer review.The poster will present the main results of this survey. The main weakness of Episciences is the workflow imposing a two-stage submission process (in the repository and after in the journal). The strengths are the great assets of the economic model and the editorial support teams.

SERVICIOS DE SALUD DE LOS ELITES SUCRE A LAS COMUNIDADES EXCLUIDAS Dilma Diany Hallasi Roselló, John R. Tinco Bautista, Felix A. Medrano Cárdenas, Hugo Infanzón Escobar, Elizabeth Guzmán Vidalón, Lucio Dipaz Saez y José Vega Salas DOI: https://doi.org/10.33017/RevECIPeru2004.0003/ RESUMEN La acción de las brigadas de salud de los Equipos Locales Itinerantes de Trabajo Extramural en Salud (ELITES) del Ministerio de Salud (MINSA) con apoyo de la Comunidad Europea, para beneficio de los peruanos de las zonas excluidas, es poco conocida. Este servicio se remonta a 1905. A partir de junio de 1998 se estableció como atención constante. Los pobladores de las comunidades cuando enfermaban no recibían ningún tipo de atención, ahora son atendidos en medicina, odontología, enfermería y obstetricia principalmente. ELITES apoya en la promoción y articulación de los servicios organizando con las autoridades de las comunidades en la formación de los Comités de Desarrollo Comunal (CODECO). También organiza y capacita a los promotores de salud. Los miembros del equipo llegan a las comunidades a pie portando en sus mochilas el equipo básico, los medicamentos y sus efectos personales. Comparten el alimento de los pobladores y duermen en los ambientes que les proporcionan. Las brigadas son buena imagen para el gobierno en el aspecto salud. Palabras clave: Brigadas, salud, excluidas, desarrollo, comunidades.
