Hi to everyone.
For a study, I am interested to know the price of a RBC unit in Austria, Hungary and Czech Republic.
In Italy the price is estabilished by law and is the same throughout the national territory (188 €). This rate is used to exchange units between hospitals.
Thank you
Ivo

Can someone share how to verify the genuity of a conference call? I got an invitation to this conference, but having doubts because there are too many fake conference calls nowadays.
Relevant answer
Answer
This conference “9th Edition of innovations In FOOD SCIENCE AND HUMAN NUTRITION (IFHN-2024)” https://foodscience-nutrition.org shows a lot of dubious features. For example the ‘warning’ that only 70 seats are left… Furthermore:
-The organization behind is Innovinc https://innovinc.org and looking at the current conferences they use the ‘trick’ many predatory conference ‘organizers’ use: organizing multiple conferences at the same place within a short period of time
-Innovinc used to be (?) a publisher and is mentioned in the Beall’s list (https://beallslist.net ).
-It is in the meantime a long list of replies but numerous replies mention Innovinc here https://www.researchgate.net/post/Dubious-conference-invitations-Just-spam-or-do-these-meetings-actually-take-place
-Contact info (5201 Great America Pkwy #320, Santa Clara, CA 95054, United States) is nothing more than a virtual one. In other words, why hide true origin?
It would not surprise me if the event will actually take place but doubt very much the quality of the conference. Looking at the photos of the attendees https://foodscience-nutrition.org I expect that this is the number of people you can expect (somewhere round 25 max.). Personally, I would avoid this one.
Best regards.
PS. I see that one of the (claimed) speakers is a member of RG https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lucien-Harthoorn you might try to contact him and see if he really going to attend the meeting. I notice that the photos of the speakers https://foodscience-nutrition.org/speakers are all scrawled from the internet (mostly LinkedIn).

The theme of the conference is:
"E-learning and Smart Learning Environment for Preparing the Specialists of New Generation".
Ecosociety, the knowledge society, the digital society are transforming into an intelligent society. It is built on "smart" work, which is done by "intelligent" government and business representatives, based on "intelligent" infrastructure and "intelligent" citizens, playing a key role in creating intelligent culture. In addition, the priority is the development of such industries as smart transport, smart health, smart energy, smart food, etc., which will eventually lead to the creation of a smart world. SMARTs will play a special role in the preparation of new-generation specialists, in which e-learning and personalized learning will have priority positions. In an intelligent society, technologies, previously based on information and knowledge, are transformed into technologies based on interaction, cooperation, exchange of experiences - smart technologies. Citizens, new generation specialists, turn their activities into "intelligent" and implement innovative changes in management strategies. This means that society needs more creative and open thinking, so that human dignity, based on flexibility and originality, is a priority. The most important issue is the training of staff with creative, creative potential, able to work and think in the new world.

A research hypothesis:
- In the Czech Republic, speeding enforcement is low as well as sanctions; therefore drivers are often speeding.
- But when Czech drivers cross the border, for example to Austria or Germany, the risk of enforcement and sanctions becomes higher so they may adapt their driving and thus drive "safer" than in the Czech Republic.
- And the opposite may hold for foreign drivers entering the Czech Republic (and becoming less safe drivers).
Is anybody aware of any research/papers/results related to these hypotheses? Thanks!
Relevant answer
Answer
How would adaptive behavior effects on driving by young drivers change if the car was full of peers and mates? I believe that individual drivers, alone, may be on average more cautious and adaptive than if being distracted, or encouraged by their buddies.

This is not a question but an informative message about ASF in wild boars in the Czech Republic! The first wild boar positive for ASF was found in Moravia, near the town of Zlín (it was in Monday, 26th June). To date, 17 dead boars  were found - 4 were positive, 3 were negative and the results of other boars are expected. The crisis commission is now intensively working on the eradication program, which will then be approved by the European Commission. Later, I will keep you informed about the development of ASF in the Czech Republic.

I am not sure whether the concept of nonprofit capacity is strongly related to that of nonprofit sustainability. But if so, my recent paper dealing with nonprofit sustainability might prove useful: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280315948_Sustainability_of_Rural_Nonprofit_Organizations_Czech_Republic_and_Beyond?ev=prf_pub
My approach would be to conceptualize nonprofit capacity as the intersection of what economists call "demand-side" and "supply-side" determinants. Does that make sense?
Relevant answer
Answer
Mr.Vladislav,
I have read briefly some points from your paper. Supply side and demand side as such form a degenerative feedback structure, because once the supply triggers, based on the feedback, the market sustains degeneratively on increasing or decreasing the supply, so non profit sustainability on the higher end depends whether we are regenerative or degenerative from the market view point.

Did you already search the internet for seed catalogues (= Index seminum) from botanical gardens? A quick search now has resulted in a number of botanical gardens, which distributed Lythrum virgatum during the last years through their seed catalogues:
http://www.botanischer-garten.uni-erlangen.de/pdf/IS-2015-2016.pdf (Erlangen-Nürnberg, Gemany, who have got the plants from HB Paris)
I suppose most or all of these got the seeds from plants cultivated in their garden.

I have some data from a previous project on efficiency of municipal WM costs in the Czech Republic (2008, 2010 - 2013), part of which I have recently published.
I am interested in collecting similar data in EU countries (especially in Post-communist countries) for the purpose of comparing efficiency and factors of efficiency of municipal waste management relative to public finance (municipal cost) across Europe. I am looking for researchers with an interest in this area and who will be willing to collect data in their locale, contribute to the analyses and interpretation, and collaborate with me in publishing of the results (as co-author).

Answer
I carry on research in the area of efficiency and productivity analysis, with a particular attention on urban economics and management. I will be glad to collect data on municipal waste collection in Italy and collaborate on your comparative study.

In the Czech Republic Forest Management Forensic Experts commonly use orthophotomaps, aerial photography products, accessible online. Satellite images usage is rare in their practice. I have not found any mention of Forensic Experts using the nowadays tools to gain mensurational variables from remote sensing data. In that case we are able to obtain data which are describing the stand that was already cut down.

Answer
Just in case you are interested, in Greece forester studiers and the Forest Service also use orthofotomaps and aerial photo products in our studies for the development of the forest maps and for the identification of the canopy cover and the land type and land use of an area,  according to the instructions of the forest law. Satellite images usage is rare in Greece too and utilized by distinguished researchers for example to measure the effects of a forest fire. Satellite images are very expensive unlike other sources of images that are more easily accessible from the National Cadaster and the Military Services.

early modern period of industerial revolution was an exiting discovering everything and anything in the name if modernism, of course it seems like making all stuff from paper mishe, campare to current time- creations. Neighboring difference was limited to their basic warfare gadjets , and their language barriers to each others. Now, that none of these factors  is considered a barrier, the grouping mistake (EU) is the the punding headache to alarm the dead-end transparency of each (EU) members that have totally different dillema in inter-state issues.

We need to examine non conductive specimens (cement pastes, mortars etc.) using  Electron microscopy and EDS analyses. They are mostly porous and crumbled, so it needs to impregnate it by epoxy resin. But this is almost non conductive and in SEM causes problems as charging.
One way is Au sputtering, but it heavily reduce the X-ray signal for EDS-WEDS for reliable quantitative elementary analysis. The second way it is application of electrically conductive resin.
Has anyone some tip and idea where I can buy it?   Thank you very much for any good suggestion.

I am particularly looking at the Visegrad countries of Central Europe.
Relevant answer
Answer
This is a new a refreshing topic. I begin by refering to a recent article by the trio of James OKORO, Richard INGWE and Mathew OJONG (Romanian Journal of Society & Politics) on economic-diplomatic relations between China and Nigeria. This study reveals hoe the Chinese have achieved much in terms of African market penetration without giving much to Africa/Nigeria. I'm just getting bits of these claims about the Visegrad four not being part of Africa's invasion. Some of us have spoken of European invasion of Africa in pretty monolithic ways/language. I realise now how the Visegrad four have been concerned about such thinking. I would presume that the interest of the Visegrad four remain their project and any success would arise from how hard each of them or four of them combined could undertake a joint economic diplomatic campaign i.e. programme. Is Visegrad an economic/political bloc of any kind? I would like to know more about this and if possible share some research time with experts from the region (Visegrad) maybe you. Conclusively, let me ask: what could be any credentials of the Visegrad in terms of undertaking the insidious neo-liberalistic offensive on Africa. Again, I draw your attention to my article (Ingwe, Ikeji & Ojong) on neo-liberalism and the role it has played in twarthing sustainable development efforts in Africa
