Abstract The use of drawings made by the researcher-designer in social psychology is unusual as a production of knowledge and even as a dissemination of results. Although, we find traces of the use of drawing in experimental studies of classical social psychology. In such studies the drawings appear to be far removed from the performative roots of social science or contemporary trends in arts-based research. It was limited to illustrations of procedures, marking the spatial arrangement between experimenter and research participants. In this article, I aim to defend the use of the drawing carried out by the researcher-designer as one of the strategies for visibility and rigor in the production process and analysis of information in research in constructionist/post-constructionist social psychology. I used information produced in an investigation into pre-7,0s. The interviews were recorded and transcribed, drawings were created throughout the information production and analysis process. In this article, I describe the production of meanings, reflectivity and defamiliarization that my meeting with one of the interviewees who used PrEP and became infected with HIV generated, fictitious name Plutón. I detail the stages of elaboration of the “Sexualidad Atenta” design: the present absence of the invisible and PrEP, 2022, and the theoretical-methodological repercussions resulting from questioning whether it was a “negative example”. I conclude that drawing helped me understand that it was not a negative example in the psychosocial reading proposed by the adopted theoretical framework.

Resumo O uso do desenho feito pela pesquisadora-desenhista na psicologia social é incomum como produção do conhecimento e mesmo como divulgação de resultados. Embora, encontremos rastros do uso de desenho em estudos experimentais da psicologia social clássica. Em tais estudos os desenhos parecem estar bem distantes das raízes performáticas da ciência social ou das tendências contemporâneas das pesquisas baseadas em artes. Ele limitava-se a ilustrações de procedimentos, marcação da disposição espacial entre experimentador e participantes da investigação. No presente artigo tenho como objetivo defender o uso do desenho realizado pela pesquisadora-desenhista como uma das estratégias de visibilidade e rigor do processo de produção e de análises das informações na pesquisa em psicologia social construcionista/pós-construcionista. Utilizei informações produzidas em uma investigação sobre profilaxia pré-exposição para infeção do vírus na imunodeficiência adquirida - HIV (PrEP) e os sentidos produzidos nas relações afetivo-sexuais de homens gays, em Barcelona-Espanha. A PrEP é 99% eficaz para o controle de infecção pelo HIV. Entrevistei 10 usuários de PrEP e fiz 11 desenhos. As entrevistas foram gravadas e transcritas, os desenhos foram elaborados ao longo do processo de produção e análise das informações. Neste artigo, descrevo a produção de sentidos, refletividade e desfamiliarização que o meu encontro com um dos entrevistados que usava PrEP e se infectou pelo HIV gerou, de nome fictício Plutón. Detalho as etapas de elaboração do desenho “Sexualidad Atenta”: a ausência presente do invisível e PrEP, 2022, e as repercussões teórico-metodológicas decorrentes de questionar se se tratava de um “exemplo negativo”. Concluo que desenhar me auxiliou na compreensão de que não se tratava de exemplo negativo na leitura psicossocial proposta pelo referencial teórico adotado.

Abstract This article seeks to reconstruct and analyze the articulation between the immigration of German scientists to Buenos Aires and the National Institute for Secondary Education (INPS). Specifically, it aims to reconstruct the thought and dissemination strategies of German knowledge by Dr. Wilhelm Keiper who serves as an intellectual and cultural agent representing Prussian thought. The same is addressed from the perspective of transnational circulations and their local ideological anchors, within the methodology of Intellectual History. In this way, the cultural manifestations of ethnic Germans settled in the region are related to the strategies for the conveyance of the same through spaces for the construction and dissemination of social knowledge in state scientific-pedagogical institutions.

Resumen El presente artículo procura reconstruir y analizar la articulación entre la inmigración de científicos alemanes en Buenos Aires con el Instituto Nacional del Profesorado Secundario (INPS). Específicamente se apunta a realizar una reconstrucción del pensamiento y estrategias de difusión del saber germano por parte del Dr. Wilhelm Keiper el cual se desempeña como intelectual y agente cultural representante del pensamiento prusiano. Lo mismo se aborda bajo la perspectiva de las circulaciones transnacionales y sus anclajes ideológicos locales, dentro de la metodología de la Historia Intelectual. De este modo, se ponen en relación las manifestaciones culturales propias de los alemanes étnicos asentados en la región junto a las estrategias de vehiculización de las mismas a través de espacios de construcción y difusión del saber social en instituciones científico-pedagógica estatales.

Especificamente, visa realizar uma reconstrução do pensamento e estratégias de difusão do saber alemão por parte do Dr. Wilhelm Keiper que atua como intelectual e agente cultural representante do pensamento prussiano. O mesmo é abordado sob a perspectiva das circulações transnacionais e seus ancoradouros ideológicos locais, dentro da metodologia da História Intelectual. Dessa forma, as manifestações culturais próprias dos alemães étnicos assentados na região são relacionadas às estratégias de veiculação das mesmas através de espaços de construção e difusão do saber social em instituições científico-pedagógicas estatais.

Résumé Ce travail présente une analyse historique qui contribue à la connaissance et à la diffusion de la dernière étape de la construction de l’École Nationale des Maîtres, une des plus importantes institutions éducatives du Mexique en matière de formation des enseignants tant par son ancienneté, sa tradition, la taille de sa communauté scolaire et, en particulier, par le patrimoine culturel dont elle dispose : architecture, sculpture et peinture. Tout cela fait partie du sentiment d’identité normaliste. Il s’agit d’une école qui, depuis plus de cent trente-cinq ans, s’est spécialisée dans la formation et la professionnalisation des enseignants de l’enseignement primaire qui ont travaillé avec les enfants mexicains dans pratiquement tout le pays. Son héritage a commencé à el fin du XIXe siècle et se maintient encore au XXIe siècle comme l’un des cinq plus importants normaux du pays. Il convient d’ajouter qu’aujourd’hui encore, c’est le seul établissement d’enseignement supérieur du Mexique à accueillir une réunion de l’Organisation des Nations Unies pour l’éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO). Jaime Torres Bodet, secrétaire de l’Éducation publique, a joué un rôle central dans tout cela. Quand cela s’est-il produit? Quelles en ont été les causes? Qui, en dehors de Torres Bodet, ¿en est responsable? Quelles en sont les principales conséquences? Voilà quelques-unes des questions qui seront examinées dans le cadre de cette enquête.

Streszczenie W tej pracy proponuje się analizę historyczną, która przyczyni się do lepszego zrozumienia i rozpowszechnienia ostatniego etapu budowy Benemérita Escuela Nacional de Maestros, jednej z najważniejszych instytucji edukacyjnych w Meksyku pod względem szkolenia nauczycieli, zarówno ze względu na jej starożytność, tradycję, wielkość społeczności szkolnej, jak i zwłaszcza ze względu na jej dziedzictwo kulturowe, obejmujące architekturę, rzeźbę i malarstwo. Wszystko to jako część normalistycznej tożsamości. Jest to szkoła, która od ponad sto trzydziestu pięciu lat specjalizuje się w szkoleniu i profesjonalizacji nauczycieli szkół podstawowych, którzy praktycznie na całym terytorium kraju prowadzą swoją pracę zawodową z meksykańskimi dziećmi. Jej dziedzictwo rozpoczęło się pod koniec XIX wieku i nadal, w XXI wieku, pozostaje jedną z pięciu najważniejszych szkół normalnych w kraju. Należy dodać, że do dziś jest to jedyna instytucja szkolnictwa wyższego w Meksyku, która była także miejscem spotkań Organizacji Narodów Zjednoczonych ds. Edukacji, Nauki i Kultury (UNESCO). W całym tym procesie kluczową rolę odegrał wówczas pełniący funkcję sekretarza Edukacji Publicznej Jaime Torres Bodet. Kiedy to się wydarzyło? Jakie były przyczyny tego spotkania? Kto oprócz Torres Bodeta był głównymi odpowiedzialnymi za to? Jakie były jego główne konsekwencje? To tylko niektóre z pytań, które zostaną przeanalizowane w tej pracy badawczej.

Resumen En este trabajo se plantea un análisis histórico que contribuya en el conocimiento y divulgación de la última etapa de construcción de la Benemérita Escuela Nacional de Maestros, una de las instituciones educativas más importantes de México en materia de formación de docentes tanto por su antigüedad, su tradición, el tamaño de su comunidad escolar y, especialmente, por el patrimonio cultural con el que cuenta: arquitectura, escultura y pintura. Todo eso como parte del sentido de identidad normalista. Se trata de una escuela que desde hace más de ciento treinta y cinco años se ha especializado en la formación y profesionalización de los docentes de educación primaria, quienes han desarrollado su labor profesional con la niñez mexicana prácticamente en toda la nación. Su legado comenzó a finales del siglo XIX y todavía en el XXI se mantiene como una de las cinco normales más importantes del país. A lo anterior debe agregarse que, aún hoy, es la única institución de educación superior en México que también ha fungido como sede para una reunión de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO). En todo esto desempeñó un papel central quien en ese momento fungía como secretario de Educación Pública, Jaime Torres Bodet. ¿Cuándo ocurrió eso? ¿Cuáles fueron las causas que propiciaron esa reunión? ¿Quiénes fueron, además de Torres Bodet, los principales responsables de ello? ¿Cuáles sus principales consecuencias? Estas son algunas de las interrogantes que se revisarán en esta investigación.

Abstract This paper proposes a historical analysis that contributes to the knowledge and dissemination of the last stage of construction of the Benemérita Escuela Nacional de Maestros, one of the most important educational institutions in Mexico in terms of teacher training due to its antiquity, tradition, the size of its school community and, especially, because of its cultural heritage: architecture, sculpture, and painting. All this shapes the normalista sense of identity. It is a school that, for more than 135 years, has specialized in the training and professionalization of primary education teachers, who have carried out their professional work with Mexican children nationwide. Its legacy began at the end of the 19th century and still in the 21st century it remains one of the five most important Normal (teacher training) schools in the country. It should be added that even today, it is the only institution of higher education in Mexico that has also served as the venue for a meeting of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). A central figure in all of this was Jaime Torres Bodet, who was serving as Secretary of Public Education at that time. When did this happen? What were the causes that led to that meeting? Who were, besides Torres Bodet, the main responsible parties? What were its main consequences? These are some of the questions that will be addressed in this study.

ABSTRACT Scientific dissemination involves activities development that interpret and make scientific knowledge accessible to society; it includes all those tasks that carry out scientific knowledge to people interested in understanding or becoming informed about a certain area of knowledge. The purpose of this research is to systematize knowledge about scientific dissemination and its importance in universities. A search was carried out in the SciELO, Redalyc and Dialnet databases, using the Google Scholar search engine. Keywords combinations of “scientific dissemination, university, “academic social networks” were applied. Based on the obtained information, a bibliographic review of 163 documents was carried out; Those that did not adequately address the topics of interest were excluded, and 27 were selected. University management of scientific dissemination has a very promising future to contribute to sustainable development, as long as its appropriate conception and implementation is achieved. In the academic sphere, it is necessary not only to be a good researcher, but also to generate management and knowledge transfer processes. It is concluded that the university constitutes one of the institutions that can contribute the most to the dissemination of science, and to achieve this it is vital that university professors in their role as researchers develop skills for socializing their researches’ results.

RESUMEN La divulgación científica implica el desarrollo de actividades que interpretan y hacen accesible el conocimiento científico a la sociedad; es decir, comprende todas aquellas labores que llevan a cabo el conocimiento científico a las personas interesadas en entender o informarse sobre determinada área del saber. Este trabajo tiene como propósito sistematizar los conocimientos sobre la divulgación científica y su importancia en las universidades. Para ello se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos SciELO, Redalyc y Dialnet, mediante el buscador de Google Académico. Se aplicaron palabras clave en la combinación de “divulgación científica”, “universidad”, “redes sociales académicas”. A partir de la información obtenida se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de un total de 163 documentos; se excluyeron los que no trataban adecuadamente los temas de interés, y resultaron 27 los seleccionados. La gestión universitaria de la divulgación científica tiene un futuro muy prometedor para contribuir al desarrollo sostenible, siempre que se logre su apropiada concepción e implementación. En la esfera académica es preciso no solo ser buen investigador, sino también generar procesos de gestión y transferencia del conocimiento. Se concluye que la universidad constituye una de las instituciones que más puede aportar a la divulgación de la ciencia, y para logarlo es vital que los profesores universitarios en su función de investigadores desarrollen habilidades para la socialización de los resultados de sus investigaciones.

It serves as an essential read for researchers, academics, and policymakers, providing insights into how these evolving models impact the quality, credibility, and accessibility of scientific research. It aims to guide informed choices in the ever-changing landscape of scientific publishing.

Abstract The objective of this exploratory study is to chart the discourses circulating on the TikTok social network concerning climate change in Brazil. It investigates the predominant narratives on Brazilian TikTok regarding climate change and the implications of these narratives. Using a methodology based on Basch et al. (2022) tailored for the Brazilian context, this study analyses 50 videos indicated as the most relevant by the platform using the hashtag #mudancaclimatica (#climatechange). Key aspects investigated include language patterns, the use of sources and strategies for addressing climate change. The videos were categorised based on various criteria, including their stance on the truth of climate change, the environmental issues highlighted, the social and ecological impacts mentioned, and the extreme weather events described. Given TikTok’s immense popularity in Brazil, the prevalence of disinformation on digital platforms in the country, and the lack of awareness among Brazilians about climate change, this study aims to assess the potentially harmful effects of narrative circulation on the platform on understanding the issue. The findings indicate a relative consensus on the reality and severity of climate change. However, aspects pertaining to the complexity of the problem often receive less attention. Prominent in the analysed narratives are those with an alarmist tone, amplified by the platform’s features. Moreover, the sources and channels behind these productions often lack clear identification, even when they are directly linked to scientific dissemination. This ambiguity could pose challenges in using these materials to counter climate denialism.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo exploratório é realizar um mapeamento dos discursos em circulação na rede social TikTok ligados à temática das mudanças climáticas no Brasil. Investiga-se, portanto, que narrativas predominam no TikTok brasileiro quando se trata de mudanças climáticas e que sentidos essas narrativas engendram. A partir de metodologia baseada em Basch et al. (2022) com adaptações para o contexto brasileiro, 50 vídeos indicados como os mais relevantes pela plataforma a partir da hashtag #mudancaclimatica foram analisados. Investigamos aspectos como linguagens utilizadas, uso de fontes e estratégias de enfrentamento às mudanças climáticas. Os vídeos foram classificados segundo diversos critérios, como seu posicionamento em relação à veracidade, ou não, das mudanças climáticas, os temas ambientais abordados, impactos sociais e ambientais citados e os eventos climáticos extremos referenciados. Em um contexto de grande popularidade do TikTok no Brasil, disseminação de desinformação em plataformas digitais no país e brasileiros pouco informados sobre as mudanças climáticas, a pesquisa busca compreender em que medida a circulação de narrativas na plataforma pode ser nociva à compreensão do problema. Concluímos que, por um lado, existe relativo consenso em relação à veracidade e gravidade das mudanças climáticas. Por outro, aspectos relacionados à complexidade da questão ficam em segundo plano. Narrativas em tom alarmista, reforçadas pelas affordances da plataforma, aparecem em proeminência. Além disso, fontes utilizadas e canais responsáveis pelas produções são pouco identificáveis, mesmo quando relacionados diretamente à divulgação científica, o que pode representar um problema para o uso desses materiais no enfrentamento ao negacionismo climático.

ABSTRACT Digital health can effectively engage patients in the self-management of their asthma. Still, it will only reach its full potential when apps are aligned with patients’ needs and are integrated into clinical practice. We aim to test a framework for the involvement of patients/carers in all phases of developing and implementing an app for asthma. This protocol was co-designed with six asthma patients/carers and includes 5 tasks. Regular interactions among patients, developers and healthcare professionals will be a priority for user requirements definition (task 1) and iterative development and testing until the app’s initial version (tasks 2-3). Patients/carers and healthcare professionals will be fully engaged in the real-life feasibility study (task 4) and management and dissemination activities (task 5). The eligibility criteria to participate in tasks 2-4 are 1) diagnosis of asthma or carer of a person with asthma; 2) ≥18 years; 3) ability to use apps and access a mobile device with Internet. We anticipate applying questionnaires such as the User Experience Questionnaire and the System Usability Scale in all app testing tasks. We expect to have a final version of the asthma app that meets patients’/carers’ needs and experiences and healthcare professionals’ concerns. This will be an attractive app to support patients in self-management of their disease, keeping their asthma in control, having fewer asthma symptoms, and enjoying life. This study will be a framework for fully involving patients, carers and citizens in the iterative co-production development and implementation of an asthma app.

RESUMO A saúde digital pode envolver efetivamente os doentes no controlo da sua doença, mas só alcançará o seu potencial quando as aplicações móveis desenvolvidas estiverem alinhadas com as necessidades percebidas pelos doentes e integradas na prática clínica. O nosso objetivo é testar uma abordagem para o envolvimento de doentes/cuidadores em todas as fases de desenvolvimento e implementação de uma aplicação móvel para a autogestão da asma. Este protocolo foi codesenvolvido com seis pessoas com asma/cuidadores e contempla cinco tarefas. Interações regulares entre doentes, investigadores, programadores e profissionais de saúde serão uma prioridade para a definição dos requisitos do utilizador (tarefa 1) e para o desenvolvimento iterativo até a versão inicial da aplicação (tarefas 2-3). Doentes/cuidadores e profissionais de saúde estarão ativamente envolvidos no estudo observacional sobre o uso da app na vida real (tarefa 4) e nas atividades de gestão/disseminação (tarefa 5). Os critérios de elegibilidade para participar nas tarefas 2-4 são: diagnóstico médico de asma ou cuidador de pessoa com este diagnóstico; pelo menos 18 anos; capacidade de usar aplicações e acesso a um dispositivo móvel com Internet. Antecipamos o uso de questionários como o Questionário de Experiência do Utilizador e a Escala de Usabilidade do Sistema em todas as tarefas que envolvem teste da aplicação. No final do estudo esperamos ter uma versão final da aplicação para a asma que atenda às necessidades e experiência dos doentes/cuidadores e às preocupações dos profissionais de saúde. Esta será uma aplicação atrativa para apoiar os doentes na autogestão da sua doença, ajudando a manter a sua asma controlada, com menos sintomas e melhor qualidade de vida. Este estudo fornecerá uma abordagem para envolver os doentes, cuidadores e cidadãos no desenvolvimento iterativo e coprodução de uma aplicação móvel de saúde para pessoas com asma.

Abstract The Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo, belonging to the Universidad Nacional de La Plata, occupies a prominent place to carry out linkage actions in university extension. In this area we have carried out workshops with the purpose of promoting the participation of children in scientific knowledge. The implementation of the workshops has focused on inclusion and dialogue, especially for young people with hearing disabilities, following the principles of cultural accessibility. To achieve this, we have adopted the practice of disseminating information in a bilingual and intercultural manner using Argentine Sign Language (LSA). These workshops encouraged the exploration and understanding of the Inca world, focusing on the quipus as an accounting system and on the pre-Columbian sonorities of northwestern Argentina, approached through a detailed analysis of their musical instruments. In the same way, activities were carried out on present and past animals that inhabited the territory, through visits to rooms and interactive spaces of the Museum of La Plata. This comprehensive work proposal continues with the activities of communication in Science, a commitment to provide proposals for the diversity of audiences, promoting the inclusion and dissemination of scientific knowledge.

Resumen La Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo, perteneciente a la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, ocupa un lugar destacado para llevar a cabo acciones de vinculación en extensión universitaria. En este ámbito hemos realizado talleres con el propósito de promover la participación de las infancias en el conocimiento científico. La implementación de los talleres se ha centrado en la inclusión y puesta en diálogo, en especial con jóvenes con discapacidad auditiva, siguiendo los principios de accesibilidad cultural. Para lograrlo hemos adoptado la práctica de difundir información de manera bilingüe e intercultural mediante materiales en Lengua de Señas Argentina (LSA). Estos talleres incentivaron la exploración y comprensión del mundo incaico, focalizándose en los quipus como sistema contable y en las sonoridades precolombinas del Noroeste argentino abordadas a través de un análisis detallado de sus instrumentos musicales. De la misma forma, fueron llevadas a cabo actividades sobre los animales actuales y pasados que habitaron el territorio mediante la visita a salas y espacios interactivos del Museo de La Plata. Esta propuesta integral de trabajo continúa con las actividades de comunicación en ciencia, un compromiso en brindar propuestas para la diversidad de públicos, promoviendo la inclusión y la divulgación del conocimiento científico.

Resumen La circulación de los textos de Rubén Darío en la prensa latinoamericana y, en menor medida, europea, ha sido ponderada como emblemática de los procesos de emergencia del escritor profesional y de la paulatina autonomización de la literatura como práctica social específica. Sin embargo, solo una porción de esa producción fue luego incorporada en libros publicados por el autor o en las posteriores compilaciones póstumas. La concepción de esta selección como su “obra literaria” lleva implícita, en su valoración y su jerarquización estética, la sustracción de los textos de su soporte original y, sobre todo, el borramiento del diálogo discursivo y de imaginarios que esos textos entablaron con otros, presentes en los mismos soportes o en soportes contiguos. En este trabajo, me interesa analizar la forma en que algunos cuentos fantásticos de Rubén Darío, escritos y/o publicados en Buenos Aires en la última década del siglo XIX, se vincularon fuertemente con la información periodística y, de manera puntual, con la divulgación de novedades científicas, pseudocientíficas y técnicas que circulaban en diarios y revistas. Rubén Darío mantuvo un vínculo estrecho con la irrupción de esas novedades y supo tamizarlas en su literatura como material para la ficción narrativa; asimismo, pareció captar con productiva sensibilidad el cruce de estas novedades científicas con la dimensión de los ocultismos y la religiosidad tradicional. La revisión de estos relatos en el marco de su publicación original permitirá asimismo estudiar, a través de un caso particular, un proceso mayor: el desarrollo del género cuento en la Argentina, forma que se modernizó y consolidó “por fuera del libro”, en una permanente interacción entre, por un lado, la tradición literaria y, por otro, los condicionamientos y posibilidades que la prensa operó sobre esa forma narrativa.

Abstract The circulation of Rubén Darío's texts in Latin American press has been regarded as emblematic of the emergence processes of the professional writer and the gradual autonomisation of literature. However, only a portion of that production was later incorporated into books published by the author or in subsequent posthumous compilations. The conception of this selection as his 'literary work' implies, in its aesthetic hierarchization, the removal of the texts from their original support and, above all, the erasure of the discursive dialogue that these texts engaged with others, present in the same or similar media. In this work, I am interested in analyzing how some fantastic stories by Rubén Darío, written and/or published in Buenos Aires in the last decade of the 19th century, were strongly linked to journalistic information and, specifically, the dissemination of scientific, pseudoscientific, and technical novelties circulating in newspapers and magazines. Rubén Darío maintained a close connection with the emergence of these novelties and skillfully filtered them into his literature as material for narrative fiction. He also seemed to capture, with productive sensitivity, the intersection of these scientific novelties with the occultism and traditional religiosity. The review of these stories in the context of their original publication will also allow the study, through a particular case, a larger process: the development of the short story genre in Argentina, a form that modernized and consolidated in a constant interaction between literary tradition, and the conditions that the press exerted on that narrative form.

Abstract Recently, there has been a restructuring of the working groups of the European Weed Research Society (EWRS). The coordinators of the new group “Weed Management in Mediterranean Cropping Systems” have prepared in September 2023 a survey to find out the interest of potential participants in terms of thematic priorities, type of activities and collaboration with other working groups. There were 54 responses from the EWRS, with 9 from Spain (ES). The SEMh (Sociedad Española de Malherbología) distributed the same questionnaire, obtaining 20 additional responses, so 29 responses were received from people linked to this country. Regarding the topic, participants from other countries (OP) considered the invasive species, the control of weeds in irrigated lands and the effect of climate change on weed management as “very relevant” in 56% of the answers. Minimum tillage and direct sowing obtained 51% and specific species 49%. On the other hand, participants from ES considered “very relevant” weed management in woody crops (71%), herbicide resistance (68%) and the management of specific species (61%). Regarding activities, form work networks (76% OP, 57% ES) and organize webinars (71% OP, 61% ES) were considered most interesting proposals. Regarding coordination with other working groups, the preferences were quite different for people from OP and ES. We hope that thanks to these results, interesting activities can be organized for the scientific and technical community that work on weed science in this climatic zone.

Resumen Recientemente se ha producido una reestructuración de los grupos de trabajo de la Sociedad Europea de Malherbología (EWRS). Desde el nuevo grupo “Weed Management in Mediterranean Cropping Systems” en septiembre de 2023 se ha preparado un cuestionario para conocer el interés de potenciales participantes en cuanto a las prioridades temáticas, tipo de actividades y colaboración con otros grupos de trabajo. Hubo 54 respuestas de la EWRS, siendo 9 de España (ES). La SEMh (Sociedad Española de Malherbología) distribuyó el mismo cuestionario, obteniendo 20 respuestas adicionales, por lo que se recibieron 29 respuestas de personas vinculadas a este país. En cuanto a la temática, los participantes de otros países (OP) consideraron a las especies invasoras, el control de arvenses en regadío y el efecto del cambio climático sobre el manejo de malas hierbas como “muy relevante”, en un 56% de las respuestas. Mínimo laboreo y siembra directa obtuvieron un 51% y especies concretas un 49%. En cambio, los participantes de ES consideraron “muy relevante” el manejo de las malas hierbas en cultivos leñosos (en un 71%), la resistencia a herbicidas (68%) y el manejo de especies concretas (61%). En cuanto a las actividades, formar redes de trabajo (76% OP, 57% ES) y realizar webinars (71% OP, 61% ES) fueron las propuestas consideradas como más interesantes. En cuanto a la coordinación con otros grupos de trabajo, las preferencias fueron bastante diferentes para las personas de OP y de ES. Esperamos que gracias a estos resultados se puedan organizar actividades interesantes para la comunidad científica y técnica que trabaja en malherbología en esta zona climática.

Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) is a globally recognised publication outlet for the field of Computer Science, including in South Africa. In this study, spanning from 1973 to 2022, we investigated the research participation of South African based authors in LNCS. The publication output and citation impact of these authors were compared to the global Computer Science and LNCS output. The authorship patterns and collaborative behaviour of South African LNCS papers were explored, and a keyword or topic analysis also conducted. Of the total of 518 662 LNCS papers published globally between 1973 and 2022, South African based researchers contributed 1150 papers (0.22%). The LNCS papers from South Africa exhibit a strong collaborative publication culture, with 1043 (91%) co-authored and 107 (9%) single-authored works. Local LNCS researchers prefer institutional collaboration (43%), followed by international (37%) and national collaboration (11%). Europe emerged as the most significant collaboration partner for LNCS researchers in South Africa. Of the 1150 papers, 836 (73%) had received citations, while 314 (27%) had not. On average, papers published by South African based authors received 6.05 citations, compared to the global LNCS average of 9.49 citations per paper. A keyword analysis revealed that the majority of papers by South African authors focus on artificial intelligence. The results indicate that, although LNCS serves as a reputable dissemination platform for Computer Science research output both globally and locally, South African authors should consider publishing more journal articles to build and improve their researcher profiles. SIGNIFICANCE: • The study shows that LNCS is the most frequent publication outlet for Computer Science researchers, globally and in South Africa. • The study offers insight into the publication output, authorship patterns, collaborative behaviour and citation impact of South African based Computer Science researchers.

Abstract This article aims to survey the state of the art on Technological and/or Process Innovation with a focus on Organic Agriculture, through a systematic literature review (SLR), classified as exploratory, descriptive and with a qualitative approach. For this purpose, the protocol described by Cronin et al. (2008) was used. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 29 articles were selected and analyzed in the Web of Science database. The results indicated a predominance of theoretical-empirical research that integrates qualitative and quantitative approaches. Additionally, the main authors were mapped, as well as institutions and journals with the highest number of publications in the researched area. It was evident that the authors Leila Amaral Gontijo (UFSC), Larissa Maas (UFSC) and Rosane Malvestiti (UFSC) are the ones that most appear in the list among the 29 articles examined in the research. The most prominent institution in the publications is the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC). Content analysis indicated that innovation ecosystems can be built through a dense network of relationships, which helps in the development and dissemination of knowledge combined with a strong sense of territoriality. Finally, an agenda for future research is presented for advances in this field of knowledge. andor or Agriculture SLR, SLR , (SLR) exploratory approach purpose al 2008 (2008 used criteria 2 database theoreticalempirical theoretical empirical approaches Additionally mapped area UFSC, UFSC (UFSC UFSC. . relationships territoriality Finally (SLR 200 (200 20 (20 (2 (

Resumo O presente artigo tem por objetivo levantar o estado da arte sobre Inovação Tecnológica e/ou de Processos com foco na Agricultura Orgânica, por meio de uma revisão sistemática de literatura (RSL), classificada como exploratória, descritiva e com abordagem qualitativa. Para tal intento, foi utilizado o protocolo descrito por Cronin et al. (2008). Após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão foram selecionados e analisados 29 artigos na base de dados Web of Science. Os resultados indicaram predominância de pesquisas teórico-empíricas que integram abordagens qualitativa e quantitativa. Adicionalmente, foram mapeados os principais autores, bem como instituições e periódicos com maior quantidade de publicações na área pesquisada. Evidenciou-se que as autoras Leila Amaral Gontijo (UFSC), Larissa Maas (UFSC) e Rosane Malvestiti (UFSC) são as que mais aparecem na lista entre os 29 artigos examinados na pesquisa. A instituição com maior destaque nas publicações é a Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC). A análise de conteúdo indicou que os ecossistemas de inovação podem ser construídos por meio de uma densa rede de relações, que auxilia no desenvolvimento e difusão do conhecimento aliado a um forte senso de territorialidade. Por fim, apresenta-se agenda de pesquisas futuras para avanços nesse campo de conhecimento. eou ou Orgânica RSL, RSL , (RSL) exploratória intento al 2008. 2008 .

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic generated a large volume of scientific productions with different quality levels. The speed with which knowledge was produced and shared worldwide imposed on health management the challenge of seeking ways to identify the best available evidence to support its decisions. In response to this challenge, the Department of Science and Technology of the Brazilian Ministry of Health started offering a service to produce and provide scientific knowledge addressing priority public health issues in the pandemic scenario. Drug treatments, non-pharmacological measures, testing, reinfection and immunological response, immunization, pathophysiology, post-COVID syndrome and adverse events are among the topics covered. In this article, we discuss the strengths and lessons learned, as well as the challenges and perspectives that present a real example of how to offer the best scientific evidence in a timely manner in order to assist the decision-making process during a public health emergency.

RESUMO A pandemia de covid-19 gerou um numeroso volume de produções científicas com diferentes níveis de qualidade. A velocidade com que o conhecimento era produzido e compartilhado a nível mundial impôs à gestão em saúde o desafio de buscar meios de identificar as melhores evidências disponíveis para subsidiar suas decisões. Em resposta a este desafio, o Departamento de Ciência e Tecnologia do Ministério da Saúde do Brasil estabeleceu um serviço para elaborar e disponibilizar conhecimento científico abordando questões prioritárias de saúde pública no cenário da pandemia. Entre os temas abordados estão tratamentos medicamentosos, medidas não farmacológicas, testagem, reinfecção e resposta imunológica, imunização, fisiopatologia, síndrome pós-covid e eventos adversos. Neste artigo, discute-se os pontos fortes e lições aprendidas, bem como os desafios e perspectivas que fornecem um exemplo real sobre como disponibilizar as melhores evidências científicas, em tempo hábil e de forma oportuna, para auxiliar o processo decisório durante uma emergência em saúde pública. covid19 covid 19 covid-1 qualidade decisões medicamentosos farmacológicas testagem imunológica imunização fisiopatologia póscovid pós adversos artigo discutese discute se aprendidas oportuna covid1 1 covid-
