Abstract:
In February 1997, following the announcement that the Roslin Institute in Scotland had successfully cloned a sheep (‘Dolly’) by means of cell-nuclear transfer, US President Clinton requested the National Bioethics Advisory Commission to review legal and ethical issues of cloning and to recommend federal actions to prevent abuse. In the meantime he directed the heads of executive departments and agencies not to allocate federal funds for ‘cloning human beings’. The Commission consulted with members of relevant academic disciplines and other professions, representatives of interest groups and members of the general public, and received written submissions. Unsurprisingly, given the prospect of human cloning and the sensational announcement in January 1998 by the American physicist-cum-embryologist Richard Seed that he would aim to clone himself (subsequently he has decided that his wife would be a better subject), public debate in the US has been fairly voluble.

Abstract:
The year 1996 witnessed the cloning of the lamb Dolly, based on the revolutionary somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) technique, developed by researchers from the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, Scotland. This fact marked a relevant biotechnoscientific innovation, with probable significant consequences in the field of public health, since in principle it allows for expanding possibilities for the reproductive autonomy of infertile couples and carriers of diseases of mitochondrial origin. This article expounds on 1) the experiment's technical data and the theoretical implications for the biological sciences; 2) the public's perception thereof and the main international documents aimed at the legal and moral regulation of the technique; and 3) the moral arguments for and against cloning, from the point of view of consequentialist moral theory. We conclude that in the current stage of the debate on the morality of cloning, in which there are no cogent deontological arguments either for or against, weighing the probability of risks and benefits is the only reasonable way of dealing with the issue in societies that consider themselves democratic, pluralistic, and tolerant

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThe textural properties of many sediments provide a good indication of their provenance, but surprisingly little information is available on the transitional stages between the breakdown of a rock and the incorporation of the material into a fluvial sediment. These transitional stages are important as certain fractions (particularly the finer ones) may be selectively removed. Regoliths developed on steep slopes represent an early stage in the debris cascade and they are here examined in detail to assess the role of parent lithology on the textural properties of the regolith. There are substantial variations between lithologies, although the majority of regoliths are dominated by coarser fractions and are poorly sorted. Most particle size distributions show some degree of fit to both log-normal probability distributions and Rosin distributions. Differences from these can be ascribed to the processes operating on steep slopes, particularly the influx of sand- and silt-sized material by colluvial processes and the removal of clay-sized material by leaching. The regoliths form a distinct facies type which may be recognisable in the geological record.

Abstract:
From Ancient Near Eastern texts, the Bible and archaeological artefacts, we are able to glimpse an over arching belief in a feminine deity. During the occupation of the Temple Mount by the Knights Templars, earlier traditions were ”re-discovered” and accepted as a de facto tradition. William St Clair at the threshold of the Renaissance, mindful of the danger of heresy, was intellectually able to bring together many traditions into a broad Biblically-based theology that recognised the early Israelite traditions as the foundation of Christian belief. All this is evident in Rosslyn Chapel.

Abstract On February 23, 1997, a British newspaper, the Observer, broke a story that truly shocked the world. Dr. Ian Wilmut and his team at the Roslin Institute, near Edinburgh, Scotland, had succeeded in a task many had believed to be impossible. They had cloned a mammal—a sheep, named Dolly—from an adult mammary cell. (In the same experiment, the scientists also cloned sheep from cell lines composed of fetal and embryo cells.)

Abstract:
Abstract If we were to judge by the amount of attention it has received, from the media, from political leaders, and from opinion makers, the ingenious technical breakthrough that enabled Dr. Ian Wilmut and his team at the Roslin Institute in Scotland to clone an adult sheep would have to be the most momentous scientific event since the first atom bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. The president of the United States demanded a report on whether the new procedure should be banned. Even the birth of the world’s first “test-tube baby” did not provoke so swift a response. Nor did the subsequent cloning of mice, cows, goats, and pigs.

Abstract:
Abstract In February 1997, scientists from the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh, Scotland, announced that they had successfully cloned an adult sheep. Because many scientists had been skeptical about the possibility of such cloning, and because the particular technique that Ian Wilmut and his colleagues used to create the clone promised tremendous advances in knowledge about mammalian cell development and cell differentiation, the birth of Dolly received intense, international attention. Dolly’s birth also generated enormous controversy. Could this technology be extended to humans? If it could, would cloning humans be morally acceptable? Even the apparently remote possibility of human cloning conjured apocalyptic visions for many commentators, and so Wilmut’s announcement was met almost everywhere with a sense of alarm and moral urgency. Certainly in the United States there was a sense of urgency, for, the day after the story broke, President Clinton instructed the National Bioethics Advisory Commission (NBAC) to “undertake a thorough review of the legal and ethical issues associated with the use of this technology” and to do so within 90 days.1 The President was not alone: The United States House of Representatives convened hearings on cloning the following week, as did the United States Senate the week after that.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has arguably caused the biggest disruption to the museum and heritage sector since the Second World War. All over the world, museums have had to close, some never to reopen, and many have had to suspend their operations for prolonged periods. However, the disruption has also invited – sometimes forced – substantial changes in the way museums perceive themselves and their interactions with their audiences. This has included an increased focus on digital offers, a reconsideration of the human relationships with external as well as internal stakeholders, new ways to guarantee the preservation, documentation and availability of collections and revised financial and sustainability planning. Some of these changes will be transitory, while others are likely to leave permanent footprints on the identity of museums and the way they operate even after the emergency has passed. This conference will highlight and discuss some of the initiatives and innovations that emerged from the past year, with particular attention to curatorship, conservation, learning and participation, and documentation and research. Critical perspectives, as well as case studies are invited to focus on the long-term impact of the pandemic and on the way the identity of music museums, their value and relevance to society and research, and their ways of operating internally and externally may have been transformed.
