THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
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.

Toxic effects of heavy metals : Lead and Arsenicsanjana502982
Heavy metals are naturally occuring metallic chemical elements that have relatively high density, and are toxic at even low concentrations. All toxic metals are termed as heavy metals irrespective of their atomic mass and density, eg. arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium, thallium, chromium, etc.
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.

10. Span of Control
• Number of employees that an manager can
manage effectively
• Increased over the last several years
• Contingency variables impact number
11. Authority vs. Responsibility
• Rights inherent in
managerial position to
give orders and expect
them to be followed
• Related to one’s
position--not the
characteristics of
person
• Obligation to perform
• Goes hand-in-hand
with authority
13. Line Authority
• Level of authority that entitles manager to
direct the work of an employee
• Contributes directly to the achievement of
organizational objectives
31. What is Culture?
• Personality of the organization.
• Comprised of the assumptions, values, norms
and tangible signs of organization members
and their behaviors.
• Difficult to express distinctly, but everyone
knows it when they sense it
• Particularly important when attempting to
manage organization-wide change
32. 11/16/14 32
Importance
Organizational change failure is credited to
lack of understanding about the strong role
of culture and the role it plays in
organizations.
That's one of the reasons that many strategic
planners now place as much emphasis on
identifying strategic values as they do
mission and vision.
33. 11/16/14 33
Types of Culture
There are different types of culture just like
there are different types of personality
• Academy Culture (highly skilled and tend to stay
in the organization) Eg :universities, hospitals, large
corporations, etc
• Baseball Team Culture (Employees are "free
agents" who have highly prized skills,high
demands)Eg : Investment banking, advertising, etc.
34. 11/16/14 34
Types of culture
• Club Culture (Requirement for employees
in this culture is to fit into the group)Eg :
Military, some law firms, etc
• Fortress Culture (Employees don't know if
they'll be laid off or not. These
organizations often undergo massive
reorganization) Eg : savings and loans,
large car companies, etc.
35. Dimensions of Organizational
Culture
• Member identity
• Group emphasis
• People focus
• Unit integration
• Control
• Risk tolerance
• Reward
• Conflict tolerance
• Means-end orientation

36. Cultural Affects on Managers
• Constrains what managers can and cannot
do
• Constraints are rarely explicit
• Culture has a link between values and
managerial behaviour--what is acceptable
and not

business development activities
At the beginning of this course, we spoke about the 4 key management activities. One of those activities was “organizing.” We will now look at what occurs in this activity.
The structure of the organization is the framework or skeleton for dividing, assigning and coordinating work.
Whenever managers develop or change the structure, it is called “organization design.”
We will be examining in depth these six elements of structure: work specialization, chain of command, Span of control, authority and responsibility, centralization vs. decentralization, and departmentalization.
The first component is the division of labour, or work specialization. It describes the degree to which tasks are subdivided into separate jobs. An entire job is not done by one person. Individuals specialize in doing part of an activity rather than the entire activity.
Work specialization makes efficient use of the broad skills that workers have.
Early advocates believed that work specialization could lead to indefinitely increasing productivity. Since specialization was not widely practiced at the turn of the twentieth century, their belief was reasonable. By the late 1940s, work specialization enabled manufacturing firms to make the most effective use of their employees’ skills. So, managers believed that this could go on indefinitely. However, as you can see in this slide, by the 1960s, the human diseconomies resulting from work specialization began to offset the economic advantages. Managers today understand that while division of labour is appropriate for some jobs, productivity in other jobs can be increased through enlarging, not narrowing, the scope of job activities.
The next component is the chain of command--the principle that no person should report to more than one boss. As you can see in this example, one individual only reports to another individual.
The span of control refers to the number of employees a manager can effectively and efficiently manage.
In the early studies of management, it was felt that smaller spans were better--usually 6 employees. This has now changed so that it is quite typical to find a manager responsible for 10-12 employees. The span of control now is greatly influence by contingency variables such as the training and experience employees have, complexity of tasks, physical proximity of manager and employees, the culture of the organization, and the preferred managing style of the manager.
Another component of organizational design are the concepts of authority and responsibility.
Authority refers to the inherent rights managers have in giving direction and orders and expecting those orders to be followed. It is important to note that the concept of authority is related to the position and not the person.
When a person has been delegated authority, the person also has the responsibility--or obligation to perform the tasks or assignments.
These concepts become quite important when a manager wants to empower employees. Remember empowerment from preceding chapters? Empowerment is the delegation of decision-making (authority) over some work process. However, for this to work effectively, employees need to be responsible for the success of the process. And for empowerment to truly work, a person needs to have both responsibility and authority--it isn’t appropriate to hold someone accountable for something that they have no authority over.
Here is a diagram of authority. This is a more detailed example linking the chain of command with authority. In this example, the CEO has authority over the departments of finance, accounting, marketing and so forth.
There are different types of authority relationships. Line authority refers to the authority that a manager has over other employees. It extends from the top of the organization to the bottom.
Let’s go back to the last slide which shows the chain of command. The CEO (Chief Executive Officer) has authority over the various departments listed.
However, authority does not adequately explain the influence that some people have on the operations in an organization. In today’s business environment, power is a much larger concept than authority.
While authority is a positional right, power refers to the individual’s capacity to influence outcomes in the organization.
Let’s revisit the slide showing chain of command and authority. The CEO has legitimate authority and power over marketing, production, and human resources. It is the horizontal dimension as shown on the right slide of the slide. The higher one is in the organization, the more authority the person has. Power is a three-dimensional concept that includes centrality or one’s distance from the centre core of power. The cone analogy above acknowledges two facts: (1) the higher one moves in an organization, the closer the person is to the power core; and (2) even those without authority can wield power because one can move horizontally inward toward the power core without moving up.
The next slide will examine where power comes from.
There are 5 sources of power:
Coercive power which is based on fear. For example, a manager who intimidates employees.
Reward power which is based on the ability to distribute something that others value. For example, a manager is using reward power when making decisions about increases in pay.
Legitimate power which is based on one’s position in the formal hierarchy. This is the most closely aligned power concept to authority.
Expert power which is based on one’s expertise, special skill, or knowledge. For example, a person in the research department may have incredible influence over the CEO because the researcher has very specialized skills in the biotechnology field.
Referent power which is based on identifying with a person who has desirable resources or personal traits. For example, a person who can explain the feelings of employees to a senior manager.
The term centralization refers to how much decision-making authority is pushed down to lower levels in the organization. It is not an either-or concept, but is a matter of degree. Traditional organizations were structured in a pyramid, with power and authority centralized at the top.Today’s organizations, on the other hand, are more complex and need to be able to respond to the dynamic changes in their environments. To do this, managers believe that decisions need to be made closed to the problems. As a consequence, managers will make decisions about the best amount of decentralization to achieve organizational goals.
Recall our discussion earlier about empowerment. For this to work, decision-making must be decentralized.
Traditionally, work activities have been specialized and grouped into departments. Those specialists are under the direction of a manager. There are several ways in which these activities can be grouped.
Activities can be grouped according to function to pursue economies of scale by placing employees with shared skills and knowledge into work-groups. These are referred to as functional departments. Examples would be engineering, accounting, human resources, and marketing.
Tasks can also be grouped according to a specific product, thus placing all activities related to the product under one manager. This is called product departmentalization. Exhibit 5-6 in your text on page 126 shows an example of this.
Jobs may be grouped according to the type of customer served by the organization. For example, in an organization like Staples or Grand and Toy, it could break the departments into those that serve retail customers, home-based business customers, or government customers.
If an organization’s customers are geographically dispersed, it can group jobs based on geography. For example, Coca-Cola has two broad geographic areas--the North American sector and the international sector.
Lastly, an organization can departmentalize based on the basis of work flow or customer flow. This is referred to as process departmentalization.
While large organizations tend to still be organizational around functional, product or geographic, the trend is to reduce rigid departmentalization and use teams that cross traditional departmental lines. What is important to remember is that there is no single structure that will fit all situations.
Structure in the contemporary business environment will depend on a number of contingency variables.
Above are two forms. Another name for a mechanistic organization is a bureaucracy because there is a high degree of specialization, centralization with authority and responsibility concentrated at the top of the organization. The span of control is small at the top creating tall and impersonal structures. There is also lots of distance between top management and the front-line employees.
This is in contrast to the organic organization which is loose and flexible without rigid job duties or division of labour. This structure is low in centralization so that problems can be responded to quickly.
We’ll now turn to the variables that need to be considered when deciding to have the structure more mechanistic or more organic.
There are four factors that impact on the design of an organization.
Since the structure is designed to achieve objectives, and because these objectives flow from the overall strategy, it makes sense that structure and strategy are closely linked. If a company has developed a strategy to compete more aggressively on a world market, then it will need to be more flexible to respond to various external factors.
The larger an organization is, the more bureaucratic it tends to become. There is more division of labour, rules and regulations.
Generally speaking, the more routine the technology is within the productive capacity of the firm, the more standard and simple is the structure.
The last element to consider is the degree of environmental uncertainty facing the organization. Simply put, the more uncertain the environment, the more flexible and adaptable the structure needs to be to respond effectively.
We’ll now look at a number of specific organizational designs that incorporate the various elements we have been discussing.
Many organizations start out as entrepreneurial ventures where the owner makes more of the decisions as all the employees report to the owner. This is referred to as a simple structure where there are wide spans of control and the decision-making is centralized.
As size increases, decision making becomes slower and can come to a halt as the single executive tries to make all the decisions. If the firm doesn’t change the structure at this point, it may fail. One of the problems with family-run organizations is that much of the power and decision-making is centralized and continues to be so even when the organization becomes large and may need additional division of authority and power.
As mentioned earlier, when the organization gets larger, it tends to move toward a bureaucratic structure. Within this overall structure, the organizational can create a functional structure, similar to what we saw in slide 10 or by divisions--self-contained units.
With a divisional structure, the division manager is responsible for performance but may be supported by a central headquarters that provides support services such as finance and purchasing.
A newer type of structure combines the advantages of both functional and divisional--a matrix structure. It has the advantages of specialization with a greater focus on results.
In a matrix structure, specialists from functional areas comes together to work on a project. The next slide slows an example of an aerospace firm with such a structure.
As you can see, staff from the departments of design engineering, manufacturing and human resources are working together on projects while being part of a functional department. In the matrix structure, employees will have two bosses--the project manager and their own functional manager.
The strength of this type of structure is that it can facilitate coordination of a multiple set of complex and interdependent projects while still retaining some of the benefits from having specialty areas working together.
A newer form of organizational structure is team-based, where the entire organization is composed of teams. For this to work effectively, employees must be empowered to make decisions and senior management needs to hold the teams accountable for results.
For example, at a US office of Sun Life Canada, customer representatives have been reorganized into eight-person teams trained to expedite all customer requests.
A boundaryless organization is not limited by boundaries imposed by traditional structures. This type of structure can also be called a network organization, learning organization, barrier-free, modular, or virtual organization.
In these types of structures, employees are grouped to accomplish some core competency--the area of competitive advantage or competitive strength.
These organizations have arisen due to the increased globalization of the marketplace, the increasingly rapid change in technology, and the need to innovate as quickly as possible to remain competitive. As the E-Business and Management describes, Amazon.com has a virtual organization.
A great deal of business literature has focused on the learning organization. Let’s look at some of the specific components of this as an example of a boundaryless organization.
You will note that it is team-based and the employees are empowered. The culture of the organization has strong relationships and strong leadership and very open in its information sharing. A learning organization can be merely a particular business unit. For example, Caterpillar International has created a “Cat Learning Systems” which is being used by one of its largest dealerships, Finning International. The system enables dealers to learn about changes in the service and equipment.
But what do we mean by organizational culture?
Your text describes 10 characteristics of organizational culture. These are:
Member identity--the degree to which employees identify with the organization as a whole
Group emphasis--the degree to which work activities are organized around groups.
People--does management think about the effect on people within the organization?
Unit integration--the degree to which units operate in a coordinated and interdependent fashion.
Control--the degree to which rules and regulations control employee behaviour.
Risk tolerance--the degree to which employees are encouraged to be innovative and risk-seeking.
Reward--the degree to which rewards such as salary increases and promotions are based on employee performance compared to non-performance factors such as seniority.
Conflict tolerance--the degree to which the organization encourages employees to openly air conflicts and criticisms.
Means-end orientation--the degree to which the organization focuses on results rather than the techniques or processes to achieve results.
Open-systems focus--the degree to which the organization monitors and responds to changes in the external environment.
Organizational culture is particularly relevant to managers. It constrains what managers can and cannot do--and is rare explicit. The constraints are not written down nor are they spoken. Managers quickly learn what to do and not to do.
For instance, some examples of culture from real organizations:
Look busy even if you’re not
If you take risks and fail around here, you’ll pay dearly for it
If you want to get to the top, you have to be a team player
But what affect does culture have on the structure?
The stronger the organizational culture, the less need there is for formal rules and regulations. Employees have internalized what is expected of them and they behave accordingly. Stronger cultures create predictability, orderliness and consistency.
For example, Barclay PLC, a large British bank, is characterized as formal, cold, and risk-averse. These dominant values create behavioural consistency for managers.
