SUMMARY:Cultural Consequences of University Reform in Georgia. Building a Resilient Society
DESCRIPTION:This workshop at Ilia State University is organized with the support of University of Kent\, UK. It will bring together scholars from the humanities and social sciences\, from Georgian and European Universities: Ilia State University\, Tbilisi\, Georgia; University of Kent\, UK; Ruhr University Bochum\, Germany; Georgian University\, Tbilisi\, Georgia. \nIn May 2005\, Georgia joined the European Higher Education Area and received the state support\, as well as the support of European and American donor organizations for reforming its university system. In the wake of those quantifiable and documented reforms\, as well as ongoing process of development\, this workshop asks how we can evaluate their general societal and cultural effects in creating a resilient and progressive nation\, committed to fairness and equality. These general effects go beyond the university structures and are harder to evaluate. This workshop will ask what work\, in the disciplines of humanities and social sciences\, could be undertaken to assess the nature and durability of the effects of the reforms in the general society\, and also asks what the continuing and future role of higher education might be in further advancing Georgia as a progressive and resilient nation. \nAlthough social research or policy analysis are widely used in the analysis of education worldwide\, this project will take a different approach\, documenting and analysing the direct and indirect effects of higher education in a social or socio-cultural perspective. \nWe will ask how far and in what ways the newly accessible and inclusive higher education system has and will contribute to the improvement of civil society more generally. \nThe workshop will contribute to the vision of the role of the higher education sector in developing the culture required to promote and sustain a resilient society based on fairness and equality. We will ask how far and in what ways the newly accessible and inclusive higher education system has and will contribute to the improvement of civil society more generally. The premise is that the value of economic and structural reforms\, to be purposeful and sustainable\, should take root in a resilient civil society\, and we seek to establish what the role of cultural experts can be in analysing and contributing to social change. \n\n  \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here]

SUMMARY:“International Science Summer School in Film Studies”
DESCRIPTION:“International Science Summer School in Film Studies” is a project co-funded by Shota Rustaveli National Science Foundation of Georgia and Ilia State University. The event will be held in Kazbegi\, during 24-31 July 2019. \nIn Georgia\, in its cultural and artistic community\, it has been a debate decade now that the National Cinema is not in a state of affluence. In this case\, generally\, they mean the quality of films produced in Georgia and the main criticism comes for the filmmakers; but we think that we have to find problems in film criticism and theory too. The purpose of our project is to discuss the current problems of this case in a wider context and ask specific questions: what it is film theory? What level of teaching do we have in our academies? Moreover\, what are the major challenges in this field nowadays? \nThe organizer of the seasonal school is Ilia State University. The school consists of as the academic personal of Ilia State University\, also international researchers and film critics. The aim of the project is to involve students from different level\, educational background and universities of Georgia. \nWe believe the project is unprecedented in Georgia – so many people with different ranks\, experience and education\, will have a common topic and focus of analysis – cinema and film studies. We hope the project will be beneficial as for young researchers interested in cinema\, also for filmakers in Georgia too. \nThe members of the organizers are Nino Mkheidze\, Alexander Gabelia and Giorgi Gabelia. The school has three Georgian (Marine Chitashvili\, Teo Khatiashvili\, Diana Maghlakelidze) and two foreign (Arman Fatic\, Giovanni Vimercati) lecturers. \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here]

SUMMARY:Endogenous stem cells and Induced pluripotent stem cells in research and therapy : Current challenges and future  prospects
DESCRIPTION:Endogenous stem cells and Induced pluripotent stem cells in research and therapy : Current challenges and future  prospects  \nShibashish Giri \nApplied Stem Cell Biology and Cell Technology\, Biomedical and Biotechnological Center\, University of Leipzig. Germany. \nDepartment of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery\, University Hospital Rechts der Isar\, Technische Universität München\, Munich\, Germany. \nAbstract : \nActivation of endogenous stem cells is more powerful and superior than allogenic/ autologous stem cell translation in term for organ regeneration.  Naturally\, local endogenous stem cellactively contributes the regeneration of damaged cells/tissues/organs that represents a promising and successful platform in regenerative medicine. In principle\, our local endogenous stem cells know much better how to regenerate the organ. Every organ has their own local endogenous stem cells\, generally silent mode but active upon demand for organ regeneration. Identification and characterization of local endogenous stem cells and their activation for organ regeneration is a big challenge in stem cell research and therapy. Identification endogenous stem cells in various human organs such as skin\, heart\, brain\, liver and kidney and characterized their regeneration potential in in vitro models\, in vivo non-human model as well as human clinical setting is the main theme of our research and therapy. Like our immune system\, endogenous stem cell system has also significant role for organ regeneration. Current modern life style hampers rapidly the regenerative  potential of our endogenous stem cells system. Various cases studies have been conducted for organ regeneration by changing healthy daily life styles. Taken all together\, important role of endogenous stem cell is the central focus here. It is necessary to take good care of endogens stem cells system of our body and keep healthy daily life style to prevent from organ degeneration diseases as well as not to welcome the diseases. \n\n  \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here]

SUMMARY:Doctoral Short Course “Statistics and Data Analysis”\, July 9 and 10\, ISU\, H104
DESCRIPTION:Doctoral Short Course “Statistics and Data Analysis”\, July 9 and 10\, ISU\, H104 \nDescription: \nThe course intends to give an introduction to several aspects of Data Science\, starting from data visualization\, continuing with established statistical methods (univariate analysis\, multivariable methods)\, and ending up with machine learning and data mining. For each subject we will introduce the main concepts\, we will show how to perform some example analyses using different tools\, and we will provide links to additional study material. \nThe course consists of four theme-specific individual sessions that are independent of each other.
