Recent Trends in Clinical Trials for Pediatric Sarcoma in the United States
Background/Objectives: Pediatric sarcomas are rare and heterogeneous malignancies for which clinical trials are essential to advance treatment and improve outcomes. However, the characteristics and trends of sarcoma clinical trials enrolling children in the United States have not been comprehensively described. This study aimed to characterize U.S.-based sarcoma clinical trials enrolling pediatric patients and to evaluate trends over time. Method…
Simulating an Eighteenth-Century Enlightenment Salon
This paper reflects on my experience simulating an 18th-century French salon for an academic conference and in an undergraduate classroom. I argue that simulating a salon is heuristically as well as pedagogically useful and allows historians to test hypotheses about the nature of the salon and the role of the salonnière proposed by scholars such as Dena Goodman and Antoine Lilti. The essay also engages with some of the important insights gained f…

Killer Whale (Orcinus orca) Pulsed Calls in the Eastern Canadian Arctic
Killer whales (Orcinus orca) produce a variety of acoustic signal types used for communication: clicks, whistles, and pulsed calls. Discrete pulsed calls are highly stereotyped, repetitive, and unique to individual pods found around the world. Discriminating amongst pod specific calls can help determine population structure in killer whales and is used to track pod movements around oceans. Killer whale presence in the Canadian Arctic has increase…

Karen Offen. The Woman Question in France, 1400–1870
Karen Offen’s The Woman Question in France, 1400–1870 combines a broad survey of French women’s history over almost five centuries with a sparkling interpretive essay that will appeal to specialists of French women’s and gender history, as well as to other scholars. It offers a commanding introduction to the key primary sources and secondary literature in the rich field of French women’s history and deserves to sit within easy reach on many Frenc…
It's Hard Work
Within mainstream cancer literature, policy documents, and clinical practice, "work" is typically characterized as being synonymous with paid employment, and the problem of work is situated within the "return to work" discourse. The work that patients perform in managing their health, care, and everyday life at times of illness, however, is largely overlooked and unsupported. Drawing on feminist political economy theory, we report on a qualitativ…
Estudios afrolatinoamericanos
Título original: Afro-Latin American Studies. 1a ed.: Cambridge : Cambridege Uhiversity Press, 2018. Este libro tiene el objetivo de introducir al lector en un campo dinámico y en expansión como es el de los estudios afrolatinoamericanos. Definimos este campo, en primer lugar, como un estudio de la población de ascendencia africana en América Latina y, en segundo lugar, como el estudio de las sociedades en las que vive dicha población. En relació…
Ringed, Bearded, and Ribbon Seal Vocalizations North of Barrow, Alaska
The acoustic repertoires of ringed, bearded, and ribbon seals are described, along with their seasonal occurrence and relationship to sea ice concentration. Acoustic recordings were made between September and June over three years (2006 – 09) along the continental slope break in the Chukchi Sea, 120 km north-northwest of Barrow, Alaska. Vocalizations of ringed and bearded seals occurred in winter and during periods of 80% – 100% ice cover but wer…
The magnetic record of inorganic fly ash deposition in lake sediments and ombrotrophic peats
Interest in identifying a geological marker signifying the starting point for the Anthropocene has prompted an exploration of the stratigraphic record of inorganic particulates generated by industrial activities. Magnetic measurements of recent lake sediments and ombrotrophic peats are here used to reconstruct the history of deposition of inorganic fly-ash spheres resulting mainly from solid fuel combustion and metal smelting. The chronologies us…
The ‘ideal’ vs. the ‘reality’
This paper investigates the perceptions of teachers from one Sabaot dominated primary school in western Kenya regarding the medium of instruction (MoI) policy in different class levels. While their ‘ideal’ MoI policy bears some resemblance to the official policy which advocates mother tongue (MT) as medium in lower primary and English in upper primary, it also has significant differences because of the teachers' desire to move learners as quickly…
The effect of language attitudes on Kenyan stakeholder involvement in mother tongue policy implementation
This paper studies the relationship between language attitudes and the involvement of Sabaot stakeholders in the implementation of the Kenyan language-in-education policy (mother tongue [MT] as subject). Attitudes were vitally important for how the policy was interpreted, the extent to which stakeholders invested their time and the way in which the implementation was actually practiced. While some stakeholders seemed to have an inherent belief in…
‘It is two-way traffic’
This article reports on an ethnographic study which investigated the implementation of the Kenyan language-in-education policy in a school in rural Western Kenya. The study reveals the complexity of policy implementation in a multilingual and multiethnic context where language shift and civil unrest are occurring, and where there is pressure to move learners to Kiswahili and English despite the policy's support for mother tongue (MT) education in…

Sexing La Mode
The connection between fashion, femininity, frivolity and Frenchness has become a cliché. Yet, relegating fashion to the realm of frivolity and femininity is a distinctly modern belief that developed along with the urban culture of the Enlightenment. In eighteenth-century France, a commercial culture filled with shop girls, fashion magazines and window displays began to supplant a court-based fashion culture based on rank and distinction, stimula…

Repackaging Rousseau
Joan Landes's important interpretation of the role of gender in the construction of citizenship in the French Revolution finds its inspiration in Michel de Certeau's observation that theorizing always needs a Savage. ' For Landes, Jean-Jacques Rousseau is a perfect example of a theorist whose thought required a savage other-in Rousseau's case, woman. In her chapter on Rousseau's reply to public women, Landes explores Rousseau's condemnation of th…
