The document discusses emergency planning, monitoring, and evaluation. It provides details on creating video projects for a PETA finals demonstration on various disaster risk reduction topics. Students will work in assigned teams to create 10-20 minute videos covering precautionary safety measures for different hazards, basic fire response procedures, proper survival kit contents and use, and an overview of the Philippine disaster management law. The video projects will be evaluated based on clear objectives, well-structured storyboards, and organized, compelling content.
Communities are the first responders in case of any disaster. Therefore, a community-based disaster risk management approach should be the core of any risk reduction approach. Community based disaster risk management approach (CBDRM) is a process, which leads to a locally appropriate and locally ‘owned’ strategy for disaster preparedness & risk reduction. Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) is the result of this realization and aims to create opportunities and build partnerships with the communities to establish disaster-resilient societies.

Understanding how gender relations shape women’s and men’s lives is critical to disaster risk reduction (DRR). This is because women’s and men’s different roles, responsibilities, and access to resources influence how each will be affected by different hazards, and how they will cope with and recover from disaster.

Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

5. Risk Identification
Risk Analysis
Risk Prioritization
Risk Treatment
Monitoring
and Evaluation
Disaster risk reduction is a process
which is done before a disaster
strikes, and consists of FIVE steps:
6. Risk Identification
Risk Analysis
Risk Prioritization
Risk Treatment
Monitoring
and Evaluation
The risk identification stage
identifies the hazards; potential
threats are identified based partly
on experience and records.
7. The risk identification stage
identifies the hazards; potential
threats are identified based partly
on experience and records.
8. Risk Identification
Risk Analysis
Risk Prioritization
Risk Treatment
Monitoring
and Evaluation
Risk analysis aims to establish the
magnitude and the likelihood of the
occurrence of the event.
9. Risk analysis aims to establish the
magnitude and the likelihood of the
occurrence of the event.
10. To assess your
risk, there are
three main
parameters to
consider:
•The
consequences to
each resource if
the risk event
happens
•The severity of
the impact of
the risk event
if it happens
•The likelihood
of the risk
event to happen
•Physical (buildings, equipment, infrastructure,
inventory)
•Human (staff)
•Intellectual (partnerships, processes, data)
•Financial (cash, credit)
11. Risk Identification
Risk Analysis
Risk Prioritization
Risk Treatment
Monitoring
and Evaluation
The risk prioritization step
analyzes and identifies priority
subjects (hazards, areas,
and elements at risk) requiring
treatment.
12. A Prioritization Matrix helps
organizations to prioritize their risks and
encourages them to take the necessary
actions to help reduce their hazard risks
and build resilience.
13. Risk Identification
Risk Analysis
Risk Prioritization
Risk Treatment
Monitoring
and Evaluation
The risk treatment stage identifies
the cause of the risks, identifies and
evaluates treatment strategies, and
prepares and implements treatment
plans.
14. Risk Identification
Risk Analysis
Risk Prioritization
Risk Treatment
Monitoring
and Evaluation
Monitoring and evaluation oversees
the implementation progress of the
disaster risk management process.
This stage also conducts periodic
investigation of progress and analysis
of impact and achievement.
15. Stage 1 – Document and assess. The first stage
of the M&E cycle is to document and assess the
response to the disaster.
1. This involves using a systematic approach to
record information during and immediately
after the response effort.
2. This information is then reflected upon by
personnel who are trained to assess the
response.
3. The goal of the assessment is to identify the
fundamental strengths and weaknesses of a
recent response to a natural disaster and
propose recommendations to optimize
systems performance.
4. These insights provide an evidence-base for
the development of policies that support the
improvement of future disaster response
processes.
16. Stage 2 – Disseminate. Due to the infrequent
nature of major natural disasters, it is
important that the lessons learned from one
disaster response are disseminated effectively.
1. Widespread dissemination of reports would
ensure that the lessons learned during one
disaster could be shared and used to improve
disaster response practices for future events.
17. Stage 3 – Implement. The final stage of the
M&E cycle is to use the lessons identified in the
report to design and implement changes to
improve disaster response protocols. While
there is much attention given to the need to
continually improve response efforts, research
indicates that minimal resources are invested
into creating the capacity for improvement
Consequently, it has been found that many
health departments have failed to act on lessons
identified during previous disasters
20. ▪ Disaster risk reduction activities are part and parcel of the whole effort
undertaken before and until long after a disastrous event.
▪ The entire array of activities aimed at reducing the severity of
impact of the disaster-causing event which are undertaken
before, during, and after a disaster is referred to collectively as
disaster management.
Early warnings should be
easily understood
▪ A Yolanda timeline prepared
by the NDRRMC shows that
the typhoon was already
being tracked a week before
it entered PAR.
▪ However, it was obvious,
however, that the public
could not imagine Yolanda’s
magnitude and proportions.
▪ Although they had been
warned, many were not
alarmed because they had
survived very destructive
weather events before.
▪ They were also warned about
a possible storm surge, but
they did not know what it
meant, let alone understood
its deadly potential.
An Excerpt from “Y It Happened: Learning
from Typhoon Yolanda”
24. ▪ Community-Based Disaster Risk Reduction Management
(CBDRRM) empowers the people by recognizing and
emphasizing the value of communities and local organizations.
▪ By entrusting DRRM to them, the technical and organizational
capacities of communities are enhanced.
Disaster preparedness
should not be left solely to
National Government
Agencies (NGA):
▪ NGAs are limited by
budget and organizational
capability
▪ NGAs cannot also be in
disaster areas right away.
▪ Local people and
organizations can
recognize and respond
faster to local problems
and needs.
▪ Cost-effectiveness and
sustainability of activities
should be expected when
these are conducted by
local people.
25. WHO ARE THE PARTICIPANTS IN CBDRRM?
CBDRRM engages in communities,
not only in DRR, but also in all phases
of the disaster management cycle.
The tasks of decision-making and
activity implementation rest primarily
on local people and organizations,
with the national government
assuming a supportive partner’s role.
WHAT ARE THE AIMS OF CBDRRM?
CBDRRM aims to create resilient
communities which are able to reduce
their vulnerabilities and exposure, and
at the same time, enhance their
capacities before, during, and after
a disaster.
Capacity refers to the ability to reduce the probability of failure through
risk reduction measures, to reduce the consequences of failure, and to reduce
recovery time and patterns of vulnerability during reconstruction.
28. Introduction
Presently, disaster preparedness has been on the mind of
almost every individual. Especially in the world today that is
unstable and exposed to a number of catastrophes and
emergency events, it is a necessity to be prepared.
29. To Survive = Need Survival Kits
I n order to survive in a disaster you will require
certain equipment. Emergency kits of
preparedness and survival disaster kits are
essential for any individual that wants to be ready.
30. Raise Up Your
Chances
It is important to
note preparing
early before a
disaster can help
raise your
survival
chances.
34. S
Electricity:
If flooding is possible, locate your main circuit box
and shut off the main breaker. If there is already
water in the basement, do not touch your service
panel.
35. Tips to Buy Your Survival
Gear
Pick theright SIZE and still fulfill the FUNCTIONS desired.
S e t your budget and look for QUALITY products.
Pick theright BACKPACK. Must large enough to carry all the
