When HSFs bring the heat—mapping the transcriptional circuitries of HSF-type regulators in Candida albicans by Sadri Znaidi

“…C. albicans HSFs do not only respond to heat shock and/or temperature variation but also to CO2 levels, oxidative stress, and quorum sensing, acting this way as central decision makers. …”

Digitally-Driven Architecture by Henriette Bier, Terry Knight

“…The focus is not so much on computer-based systems for the development of architectural designs, but on architecture incorporating digital control, sens­ing, actuating, or other mechanisms that enable buildings to inter­act with their users and surroundings in real time in the real world through physical or sensory change and variation.…”

La notion de société civile dans les politiques et pratiques du développement by Gautier Pirotte

“…As an empty envelop filling with particular senses according to the actors and specific social and cultural contexts, the new “non western civil society” must be above all studied as “projects”, realities in gestation, in the junction of dynamics appropriate for the local societies where they appear and of dynamics outside societies which privilege certain actors (in particular non-governmental organizations), a particular meaning of the concept (in a perspective close to a third sector) and also supply a consequent part of the resources necessary for the vitality of these projects. …”

Immune Cells and Inflammation in Diabetic Nephropathy by Zihan Zheng, Feng Zheng

“…While these cells were classically understood to primarily function against pathogen insult, it has also become increasingly clear that they also serve a major role as internal sensors of damage. In fact, damage sensing may serve as the impetus for much of the inflammation that occurs in DN, in a vicious positive feedback cycle. …”

Shepherd on Meaning, Reference, and Perception by David Landy

“…The aim of this paper is to present an interpretation of Shepherd’s account of our most fundamental cognitive powers, most especially the faculty that Shepherd calls perception, which she claims is a unity of contributions from the understanding and the senses. I find that Shepherd is what we would nowadays call a meaning holist: she holds that the meaning of any natural-kind term is constituted by its place in a system of definitions, which system specifies the causal roles of the objects its terms name. …”
