În cadrul ediției de pe 29 aprilie a emisiunii Știința360 de pe Radio România Cultural, Dr. Marius Geantă, Președintele Centrului pentru Inovație în Medicină, a comentat ultimele noutăți din domeniul sănătății. European Network of Cancer Registries (ENCR) este o rețea coordonată de Comisia Europeană care reunește registrele naționale și regionale de cancer din Europa, cu scopul de a standardiza și îmbunătăți colectarea și utilizarea datelor oncologice.European Cancer Information System (ECIS), gestionat de Joint Research Centre (JRC) al Comisiei Europene, a actualizat baza sa de date pentru prima dată după 2018, integrând informații recente din peste 125 de registre din 32 de țări europene. Actualizarea din 2025 include și regiuni anterior subreprezentate, precum Madeira, Insulele Canare și Malta. Noile date sunt esențiale pentru fundamentarea politicilor de sănătate publică și reflectă mai precis tendințele actuale ale incidenței și mortalității prin cancer în Europa. Această actualizare subliniază rolul esențial al registrelor naționale de cancer, deoarece multe dintre țările participante au introdus noi seturi de date colectate după 2018. Registrele naționale oferă date standardizate, validate și comparabile, fiind importante în monitorizarea evoluției bolii și în dezvoltarea unor strategii eficiente de prevenție, diagnostic precoce și tratament. Colaborarea între aceste registre, prin rețeaua ENCR, asigură calitatea și comparabilitatea datelor la nivel european.La o privire de ansamblu, conform Organizației Mondiale a Sănătății (OMS), cancerul rămâne una dintre cele mai importante cauze de deces la nivel global, cu aproximativ 10 milioane de decese raportate în 2020. Cele mai frecvent diagnosticate tipuri de cancer la nivel mondial sunt cancerul de sân, pulmonar, colorectal și de prostată.Mai multe detalii despre subiectele discutate - ▶ Sângele din cordonul ombilical conține biomarkeri epigenetici care pot fi analizați pentru a depista riscul de boli de-a lungul vieții▶ O nouă metodă de biopsie lichidă permite depistarea timpurie a cancerului și monitorizarea bolii, la costuri reduse▶ Lansarea Grupului pentru Sănătatea Cardiovasculară din Parlamentul European▶ Incidența cancerului de sân continuă să crească în Europa, la femeile de peste 30 aniAscultă emisiunea pe Radio România Cultural.

Liana's work focuses on Islamic esotericism and the occult sciences, with a special interest in the exchange of esoteric and occult knowledge between the Islamic and Latin inhabited lands. Her book The Arabic Influences on Early Modern Occult Philosophy was published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2015. She is currently preparing a long-awaited critical translation from Arabic into English of the grimoire known as the Picatrix. A few of her research projects include the tenth-century secret brotherhood known as The Brethren of Purity, and the pseudo-Aristotelian Hermetica. She also worked as a project curator at the British Museum, deepening her interest in the material and artistic manifestations of the occult and the esoteric.Liana is a founding member of the European Network for the Study of Islam and Esotericism (ENSIE). Editorial roles include being a board member for Aries: Journal for the Study of Western Esotericism and Brill's Islamic Translation Series, and an associate editor of the journal Early Science and Medicine.In this interview, Liana speaks at length about Islamic Esotericism. This is an area of esoteric history that I haven't yet touched upon, so I was happy that Liana agreed to share her extensive knowledge on this topic. Some highlights of our discussion include: why the views and discourse of Islam within the area of “Western” esotericism is problematic; academic debates and disagreements in this area, how Liana defines Islamic esotericism, including paradigms and social orientations; and why the relationship between the idea of an eternal truth and the Islamic law raises anxiety in how Islamic esotericism is interpreted. Liana also discusses her research that deals with the 17th century Maltese inquisition, in particular the trial of Sellem the Moor, a Muslim enslaved person who was accused of being a magician. This work is part of a larger volume called Magic in Malta, and Liana examines this trial on three interconnected levels, and is a down-to-earth, practical example of how magic was being used by people at this time. Be sure to check out the program notes for links to all of the articles discussed in this episode.

Netzwerk zur Indoktrination von Medizinstudenten zu Klimawandel und Gesundheit gegründetEin Standpunkt von Norbert Häring.Auf dem von Pharmabranche und Bundesregierung jüngst in Berlin ausgerichteten Weltgesundheitsgipfel haben sich 25 deutsche und europäische medizinische Hochschulen zu einem Europäischen Netzwerk für Klima und Gesundheitsausbildung zusammengeschlossen. Die Treiber sitzen in Washington und New York. Das Geld kommt von den Pharmakonzernen.Aus der Pressemitteilung des Netzwerk-Mitgründers Universität Augsburg vom 17. Oktober erfährt man nur, dass das European Network on Climate & Health Education – kurz ENCHE – von der Universität Glasgow aus geleitet wird und mit einem Global Consortium on Climate and Health Education (GCCHE) zusammenarbeitet. Ziel sei es, Klima- und Gesundheitslehre in die Lehrpläne zu integrieren. Dies „soll Medizinstudierende dabei unterstützen, die zunehmenden gesundheitlichen Belastungen durch den Klimawandel zu erkennen, sie zu behandeln und ihnen vorzubeugen.“ Dafür will man in den kommenden drei Jahren mindestens 10.000 Studierende an den teilnehmenden Hochschulen „mit den aktuellen wissenschaftlichen und pädagogischen Ressourcen ausbilden“. Wer das finanziert und angestoßen hat, erfahren wir in der Pressemitteilung nicht.Die internationale Pressemitteilung ist ausführlicher und ein wenig gesprächiger, was die Geldgeber angeht.„Das Netzwerk wird auch von führenden Gesundheitsorganisationen wie AstraZeneca, Bupa, GSK, Novartis, Novo Nordisk, Roche, Sanofi und der WHO als Mitglieder der Sustainable Markets Initiative Health Systems Task Force unterstützt, einer öffentlich-privaten Zusammenarbeit zwischen CEOs und Führungskräften globaler Pharma- und Gesundheitsunternehmen, die sich für eine schnellere Dekarbonisierung der Gesundheitssysteme einsetzen.“...... hier weiterlesen: https://apolut.net/netzwerk-zur-indoktrination-klimawandel-und-gesundheit-von-norbert-haering+++Dieser Beitrag erschien zuerst am 20.

Are banks claims about their financing of fossil fuel companies true, or are they green laundering? The Tax Justice Network has been following the money, and our investigations show how financial secrecy is allowing banks to hide the true scale of their backing for activities that are accelerating the climate crisis. It's an international scandal. Plus: the judgment is final: Apple must now pay back taxes in Ireland of 13 billion euros, over 14 billion dollars. It's a big win for the European Commission. We discuss the implications. Featuring: Margrethe Vestager, EU Competition Commissioner, Tax Justice Network researchers and co-suthors of the report How “greenlaundering” conceals the full scale of fossil fuel financing Franziska Mager and Alison Shultz, economist Joseph Stiglitz of the Independent Commission for the Reform of International Corporate Taxation, Tove Ryding, tax coordinator at the European Network on Debt and Development, Eurodad in Europe, and Zorka Milin, former tax lawyer and policy director at the FACT Coalition in the United States, Will Crisp of the Bureau of Investigative Journalism.

In this episode Luba Fein, FiLiA volunteer, Alyssa Ahrabare, Advocacy Manager for European Network of Migrant Women and Hema Sibi, advocacy coordinator for The Coalition for the Abolition of Prostitution discuss a huge legal victory in France.The European Court of Human Rights upholds France's right to ban the purchase of prostitution. France enforces a law that aims to abolish prostitution, while helping its victims exit. A group of individuals, supported by pro-prostitution organisations, appealed against this law to the ECHR. According to the appellants, this legislation radically damaged their right to dignity, private life, personal autonomy and sexual freedom. The court ruled that the problems related to prostitution raise sensitive moral and ethical questions, which gave rise to different, sometimes contradictory opinions. That said, the French authorities were at their legitimate discretion in enacting the ban. Among other things, the judges stated they were aware of the multitude of problems identified with the phenomenon of prostitution (such as the violence of the sex buyers towards the people in prostitution). Still, they were not sure whether this was the result of the law or a phenomenon inherent to prostitution.Sex trade survivors and feminists globally celebrate this vast achievement. 

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Help us seed AI Safety Brussels, published by gergo on August 7, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. TLDR: Brussels is a hotspot for AI policy and hosts several think tanks doing good work on AI safety. However, there is no established AI Safety group with paid staff that brings the community together or works on reaching out to students and professionals. For this reason, the European Network for AI Safety (ENAIS) and members from EA Belgium are teaming up to seed AI Safety Brussels. This is a call for expressions of interest for potential collaborators to make this happen, with a wide range of ways to contribute, such as being a potential founder, policy/technical lead, volunteer, advisor, funder, etc. If you are interested in helping out in some capacity, please fill out this 2-minute form. Potential priorities I (Gergő) will caveat this by saying that the exact strategy (and name) of the organisation will be determined by the founding team and advisors. However, we think there are several potential pathways in which someone doing community building full or part-time could add a lot of value. Running courses for professionals The AIS community, as well as the EU AI Office, are bottlenecked by senior talent. Currently, there are only a few groups and organizations working to do outreach towards professionals.[1] Brussels has a lot of senior people working on AIS. Understandably, they don't run courses to onboard others to AI Safety, as they are busy with object-level work. Conditional on seniority, if someone gets funded to start AIS Brussels, they could leverage the existing network and create an environment that is quite attractive for (policy) professionals to join, who are new to the field of AI Safety. By running courses similar to AI Safety Fundamentals by Bluedot, such a person (or team) could introduce AIS to hundreds of professionals per year and support them in their journey of upskilling and help them get into high-impact roles. For clarification, by professional outreach, we don't mean actively reaching out to policy professionals working at e.g., the European Parliament to request meetings etc. The existing think tanks are in a better position to do this kind of work. Seeding university groups To our knowledge, Brussels has no AI Safety university groups at the moment. The founders could help seed such groups, by doing city-wide outreach to students. Organising events, meetups and connecting the community We know from an AI policy organizer in Washington that gated events (such as invite-only dinners for people in AI policy) can add a lot of value. As far as we know people working in think tanks are well-connected, but perhaps the broader AIS community could benefit from more events and meetups. A paid organiser could support people who volunteer their time to make current meetups happen, as well as organise additional events if there is a sufficient need for them. We're currently asking our contacts in Brussels whether they feel like there are sufficient opportunities to network with peers, or whether more or different opportunities would be helpful. Who is working on this at the moment I, Gergő Gáspár, co-director for the European Network for AI Safety (ENAIS) am currently spearheading this project. I have 4+ years of EA/AIS community-building experience by founding EA and AIS Hungary and providing intro courses to 300+ people. I could support the new hires and share best practices for running courses and events. Tom Dugnoille, software engineer and organiser for EA Brussels. He has been living in Brussels for 9 years and would be able to support the founding team in getting a sense of the local landscape. Armand Bosquillon de Jenlis is a computer engineer and independent AI policy and strategy researcher. He has been living in Belgium for 31 years...

How can National Human Rights Institutions (NHRI) impact on politics? We continue the series with a conversation about spheres of influence in politics. We do this together with Debbie Kohner* who talks about NHRI and their monitoring role in enabling rights-based politics. Some of the questions we asked: How can human rights monitoring influence new ways of thinking and doing politics? Are NHRIs inevitably politicised? How can NHRIs help reverse practices that negatively affect the space and activities of civil society organisations and human rights defenders?  * Debbie Kohner has been Secretary General of the European Network of National Human Rights Institutions since 2013.

"It is not our job to question individual choices of women in prostitution. We must examine the system and the context in which women's choices take place" Anna ZobninaIn February 2024, Dunja Mijatović, the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Council of Europe, published a statement entitled "Protecting the human rights of sex workers". It was a problematic statement that undermined the efforts of hundreds of feminist organisations and dozens of prostitution survivor organisations to eradicate the sex industry. In this podcast, Luba Fein, a FiLiA volunteer, discusses this statement and its consequences for women in the sex trade and society in general with two prominent feminist activists: Alyssa Ahrabare and Anna Zobnina from the European Network of Migrant Women (ENoMW) https://www.migrantwomennetwork.org/http:/twitter.com/ENoMWhttps://www.facebook.com/migrantwomeneuropehttps://nordicmodelnow.org/

Join us for an enlightening conversation with Dr Liana Saif, a luminary in the field of esoteric studies, as we delve into the profound Arabic roots of Western esotericism. Dr. Saif's distinguished academic journey has positioned her at the forefront of research into the cross-cultural exchange of esoteric and occult knowledge between the Islamicate and European worlds. In this exclusive interview, we uncover the historical connections and influences that Arabic scholars and texts have had on developing Western esoteric traditions. In 2021, Liana Saif (PhD, 2012) joined the Centre for the Study of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents at the University of Amsterdam as an Assistant Professor in the History of Esotericism in the Middle Ages. Prior to this, she was a research associate at the Warburg Institute and the Université Catholique de Louvain, and she held a post-doctoral fellowship at the British Academy at the University of Oxford (St Cross).

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez is joined by Dr. Nicolò Bizzarri to discuss the SCCAN study. Dr. Bizzarri is a former IJGC Editorial Fellow under the mentorship of Prof. Pedro Ramirez. He is a Gynecologic Oncologist at Policlinico Agostino Gemelli in Rome, president of the European Network of Young Gynecologic Oncologists (ENYGO), and he happily serves on the IJGC Editorial Board.   Highlights: International guidelines recommend tailoring the radicality of hysterectomy according to the known pre-operative tumor characteristics in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. However, the survival benefit associated with the extent of radical hysterectomy is still a matter of debate. Non-nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy was associated with improved 5-year disease-free survival compared to nerve sparing radical hysterectomy and represented an independent protective factor for risk of recurrence. Non-nerve sparing radical hysterectomy was associated with better 5-year disease-free survival in patients with tumors between 21-40 mm. In patients with early-stage cervical cancer, the extent of radical hysterectomy was associated with disease-free survival improvement in patients with tumors between 21-40 mm but not in patients with tumors ≤20 mm.

Swedish oat milk company Oatly says it's on a mission to defeat the almighty dairy industry and save the planet.

Patrick believes that we shouldn't hesitate to embrace our European identity as much as our Irishness. This series is presented in cooperation with the Irish Foreign Ministry as part of the ⁠Communicating Europe Initiative⁠.

This week's Wonderspace comes from a conference in Madrid where last week over 220 people came together around the issue of statelessness organised by the European Network on Statelessness in collaboration with Fundación Cepaim.Statelessness is an issue that impacts over half a million people in Europe and many millions globally which you can hear more about in our 100th Wonderspace episode with the amazing Christiana Bukalo from Statefree.Someone described this issue of statelessness as the 'phenomenon of invisibility' and so being at this conference was for us at Wonderspace about keeping the issue visible by signposting to people, organisations and networks who are leading the way in this complex issue. We did this in Madrid by capturing short stories of hopefulness from 24 amazing people and organisations working in the stateless arena.To find out more go to the website of the European Network on Statelessness where you will also find a link to member organisations from across Europe.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Announcing the European Network for AI Safety (ENAIS), published by Esben Kran on March 22, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. TLDR; The European Network for AI Safety is a central point for connecting researchers and community organizers in Europe with opportunities and events happening in their vicinity. Sign up here to become a member of the network, and join our launch event on Wednesday, April 5th from 19:00-20:00 CET! Why did we create ENAIS? ENAIS was founded by European AI safety researchers and field-builders who recognized the lack of interaction among various groups in the region. Our goal is to address the decentralized nature of AI safety work in Europe by improving information exchange and coordination. We focus on Europe for several reasons: a Europe-specific organization can better address local issues like the EU AI Act, foster smoother collaboration among members and the free travel within Schengen also eases event coordination. About the network ENAIS strives to advance AI Safety in Europe, mitigate risks from AI systems, particularly existential risks, and enhance collaboration among the continent's isolated AI Safety communities. We also aim to connect international communities by sharing insights about European activities and information from other hubs. We plan to offer infrastructure and support for establishing communities, coworking spaces, and assistance for independent researchers with operational needs. Concretely, we organize / create: A centralized online location for accessing European AI safety hubs and resources for field-building on the enais.co website. The map on the front page provides direct access to the most relevant links and locations across Europe for AI safety. A quarterly newsletter with updated information about what field-builders and AI safety researchers should be aware of in Continental Europe. A professional network and database of the organizations and people working on AI safety. Events and 1-1 career advice to aid transitioning into AI Safety or between different AI Safety roles. Support for people wanting to create a similar organization in other regions. We intend to leverage the expertise of the network to positively impact policy proposals in Europe (like the EU AI Act), as policymakers and technical researchers can more easily find each other. In addition, we aim to create infrastructure to make the research work of European researchers easier and more productive, for example, by helping researchers with finding an employer of records and getting funding. With the decentralized nature of ENAIS, we also invite network members to self-organize events under the ENAIS banner with support from other members. What does European AI safety currently look like? Below you will find a non-exhaustive map of cities with AI Safety researchers or organizations. The green markers indicate an AIS group, whereas the blue markers indicate individual AIS researchers or smaller groups. You are invited to add information to the map here. Vision The initial vision for ENAIS is to be the go-to access point for information and people interested in AI safety in Europe. We also want to provide a network and brand for groups and events. The longer-term strategy and vision will mostly be developed by the people who join as directors with guidance from the board. This might include projects such as policymaker communication, event coordination, regranting, community incubation, and researcher outreach. Join the network! Sign up for the network here by providing information on your interests, openness to collaboration, and location. We will include you in our database (if you previously filled in information, we will email you so you may update your information).
