Vivimos en una sociedad donde, como mujeres, se espera que nosotras rompamos todos los estereotipos que nuestras madres escucharon al crecer. Se espera que tengamos calificaciones perfectas en la escuela y la universidad, carreras exitosas, una gran salud f sica, emocional, espiritual, personal, profesional y bienestar financiero. Tener todo lo anterior bajo control y vivir una vida equilibrada se ha convertido en la definici n de xito para muchas mujeres. Pero, seamos sinceras, cu ntas veces podemos realmente equilibrar todas las prioridades en nuestras vidas sin comprometer las dem s? Cu ntas mujeres has escuchado a diario decir que desean un mejor equilibrio entre su trabajo y vida diaria? La respuesta es quiz millones de otras mujeres sientan y experimentan lo mismo en sus vidas. Tener una vida equilibrada puede ser un desaf o, especialmente si la sociedad o las circunstancias te han guiado a centrarte en prioridades err neas. Esto es exactamente lo que me sucedi despu s de graduarme de la universidad. Permit que mi carrera y desarrollo profesional fueran el foco principal de mi vida, sin dejar tiempo para algo distinto. Esto me llev a sentirme insatisfecha con mi propio ser, sentirme perdida, confundida en cuanto a qui n era y cu l era el prop sito de Dios en cuanto a mi vida en la tierra. No permitas que esto suceda en tu vida. Creo que Dios tiene un plan especial para cada mujer, algo que s lo cada una de nosotras puede llevar a cabo, pero tenemos que estar dispuestas a participar en sus planes. Est s lista para ejecutar tu parte del plan? Est s lista para tomar el control de tu vida y comenzar a crear la brillante vida que estas destinada a experimentar en esta tierra? Mi deseo es que esta gu a te ayude a acercarte un paso m s a tu visi n de vida, a tu prop sito y a liderar tu viaje de auto descubrimiento, ya que Lo mejor est por llegar

Informed and Healthy: Theoretical and Applied Perspectives on the Value of Information to Health Care focuses on two major issues: the value attributed to information by users and its effect on health care; and, a new model of information behavior in which the value of information drives various information activities (unlike many information models which tend to give prominence to information needs). The inductive development of the model is explained, with associated implications for theory and transferability or applicability elsewhere. The book uses a case study of the health information system in Uganda and expands the analysis by comparing it to other systems utilized by different countries in diverse levels of development. Topics such as access and use of information; value attribution and effect on health outcomes; and modelling information behavior and its implications on health informatics are discussed in detail. This book is a valuable resource for health professionals, planners, and policy makers, as well as researchers interested in health information systems and their applicability in different environments.

Transgenic Models in Endocrinology

Transgenic Models in Endocrinology

Maria G. Castro

Springer
2001
sidottu
The dramatic recent expansion in genomic information has motivated the development of new approaches to characterize gene expression and function. A critical issue for both basic and clinical endocrinologists is the physiological role of genes involved in regulating endocrine functions. Transgenic technologies allow the translation of genotypic information into specific phenotypes by using gene overexpression or loss of specific gene functions. Murine functional genomics is thus of central importance in modem biomedical endocrine research. Although mice are at present, the preferred mammalian species for genetic manipulations because of the availability of pluripotent embryonic. stem cells and inbred strains and the relatively low breeding and maintenance costs, transgenic rats have also been generated and used to study endocrine physiology. The two basic techniques used in the creation of transgenic animal models are integration of foreign DNA into a fertilized oocyte by random chromosomal insertion and homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells that are then introduced into zygotes. Transgenic mice and rats serve as sophisticted tools to probe protein function, as models of human disease, and as hosts for the testing of gene replacement and other therapies. Embryonic stem cell libraries for mouse gene deletion are being developed, which will make it possible to generate knockout mice rapidly and without the need to analyze gene structure, construct targeting vectors, and screen embryonic stem cell clones. A novel approach to transgenesis for the expression of DNA within adult differentiated neuroendocrine cells in vivo is using viral vectors.
Dismantling Disproportionality

Dismantling Disproportionality

This book positions disproportionality as not solely a special education issue but, rather, a broader issue of educational inequality. Disproportionality in special education parallels a persistent history of chronic socioeconomic and racial inequalities relating to the country's history of denying educational opportunities to students of color, multilingual students, students with disabilities, and those at the intersections of these identities. This book draws on the authors' experiences as technical assistance providers with the Center for Disproportionality, coupled with the latest research findings on the causes of racial disproportionality in general and special education. Dismantling Disproportionality examines four district case studies, showing how each progresses from theory to practice in delivering educational services to all students. The authors conclude that the most effective way to address disproportionality is to use a culturally responsive educational systems approach that critically engages practitioners at the intersection of beliefs, policies, procedures, and practices. Book Features:Offers a concrete, multipronged approach to disrupt and dismantle disproportionality in education.Takes a systemic approach to disproportionality that centers culturally responsive and sustaining education. Describes a framework that can be used at the teacher and school building level, in teacher and leadership preparation programs, and with districts and state education agencies. Provides useful reflection questions, key takeaways, and tools for readers.
