    Article: El virus HHV-6 y su relación con los trastornos del neurodesarrollo

    ABSTRACT: The virus HHV-6 is one of the herpesvirus family and is present in most of human beings, although it only attacks its host in cases where there is immunosuppression. It has two subtypes that are differentiated by the size and shapes of infection which are the HHV-6A and HHV-6B.It has been identified in newborns and it has been associated with pediatric disorders of neurodevelopment since more than 15 years, mainly associated with benign epilepsy, febrile seizures, meningoencephalitis, meningitis, encephalitis and multiple sclerosis. However, some research has recently begun to refer it in case studies related to disorders of autism spectrum. Since the virus can attack the Nervous Central System and the damage caused by the virus can be confused with symptoms of observable as part of disorders of neurodevelopment, a group of researchers started to analyze the presence of the virus and its relationship with delays or disorders of development in infants around the world.

    Article: Bridging the relevance gap
    Alma Dzib Goodin
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: marriage between workplace relevance and program content is increasingly becoming a major goal of higher education. Research conducted in Europe, where the Bologna Pro-cess seeks to find some connection between the two (in addition to increasing access) is showing the growing disparity students are ex-periencing between the knowledge they earn from their programs, and the knowledge they need for work. Ultimately, higher education insti-tutions cannot accurately predict and deliver all the knowledge grad-uates will need through the course of their career, but they can offer ongoing learning opportunities to afford graduates the opportunity to return and gain just-in-time knowl-edge. The main reality depends on vari-ous factors. Among them are high-er education curricula themselves, the social and economic reality of different countries and, of course, individual differences. In some countries it seems that individual differences have more weight than the rest of the variables. Trying to find a stable marriage between the work market and the academy is vital to ensuring the employabil-ity of graduates and the continued growth of economies.

    Article: General or Specific Skills: the Challenge of Higher Education
    Alma Dzib Goodin
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: f higher education institutions focus too much on delivering specific, job-focused skills, they run the risk of developing a graduating class of specialists whose jobs depend on the continued success of a particular industry. Arming graduates with a widely applicable baseline of skills allows them to enter any industry and find success through hard work and continuous learning.
