Role playing in human evolution: from life to art, and everything in between by Steven Brown

“…I argue that the evolutionary transition from “acting like” (emulation) to “acting as” (impersonation) occurred via the emergence of pantomime and its narrative depiction of the actions of other people. This was probably the first step toward impersonating someone, leading initially to proto-acting and later to theatrical performance in human cultures. …”

Clinical Study of De novo Histoid Leprosy by H Bangaru, Seema Afreen Kazi

“…The highly bacilliferous, though less common, histoid variant of lepromatous leprosy is increasingly occurring de novo. A probable reason may be due to primary dapsone resistance by the folP1 gene, and another possibility could be due to other mutations in the Mycobacterium leprae. …”

A Rare Extraskeletal Osteosarcoma Appearing After 55 Years on a Large Stage 3 Burn Scar by O. Vanhooteghem, I. Theate

“…Deep stage 3 burned areas may facilitate deeper carcinogenesis. Deep tissues are probably less subject to severe insult than is the epithelial layer during physical insult, suggesting that soft tissues transform to a lesser extent during the late stages of tumoral development as in an immunocompromised district with altered local immune defense with both cellular and humoral defense affected. …”

Reputational ranking of platform workers: on the gender discriminatory implications of users’ feedback by Elisa Parodi

“…Referring then to the possibility of the particular disadvantage of a reputational ranking being objectively justified, it is argued that, although assessing workers’ performance may likely be considered a legitimate aim, neither the appropriateness nor the necessity of the measure for achieving that aim should be assumed, and customer ratings, indeed, would probably not meet the proportionality requirement. …”

Gestion des risques naturels et prise en compte du développement durable : un lien équivoque. Le cas du sud grenoblois by Lauren Andres, Géraldine Strappazzon

“…Cet article questionne la nature du lien envisageable entre risque naturel et développement durable à travers l’étude du territoire du sud grenoblois, soumis notamment à deux aléas naturels majeurs : le mouvement de terrain de grande ampleur dit des « Ruines de Séchilienne » et les probables crues de la Romanche et du Drac. Trois étapes structurent cette réflexion questionnant la transition supposée entre une gestion des risques naturels et une gestion durable des territoires soumis aux risques naturels : une association toute relative, un lien logique mais limité sur le terrain, une relation surtout indirecte. …”
