Remoteness, islands and islandness

open access: yesIsland Studies Journal, 2021
Through an explorative overview of a number of approaches to what remoteness is, in terms of language, discourse, and fantasy, how it is established spatially and temporally by movements and perspectives, by how connections are set up, and by how boundaries are drawn and crossed, this paper argues that remoteness is a) produced rather than discovered ...

No island is an island: participatory development planning on the croatian islands [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Sustainable Development and Planning, 2014
Despite a straightforward commonsense requirement that governmental policy makers have to share their regional development management role with everybody that is involved in and /or affected by these policies, stakeholders’ participation is too often neglected or even deliberately disregarded in existing regional policies.

Understanding “Islandness”

open access: yesAnnals of the American Association of Geographers, 2023
Islandness is a contested concept, not just between disciplines but also cultures, entangled with what islands, island studies, and island identity are understood to be. The purpose of this article is to explore some of these different meanings, without necessarily unifying or reconciling them, with the aim of keeping multiple understandings of ...

The Island [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Family Medicine, 2008
A clinician's chance encounter on the subway, after a long day seeing patients, prompts reflections on the nature of our interactions with our patients and with others we come across in our lives. Random yet precise, these interactions create a string of opportunities to witness other people's lives as well as our own.

"Islands"

open access: yes, 2016
We were told that geo-politics is the great play of power across a solid continuous Euclid-ian surface. Cut apart by linear borders, the state system — a territori-ally based juridical formation — appeared to dominate all forms of sovereignty over individu-als and action.

Islands in the fluid: islands are common in cosmology

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Abstract We discuss the possibility of entanglement islands in cosmological spacetimes with a general perfect fluid with an equation of state w. We find that flat universes with time-symmetric slices where the Hubble parameter vanishes always have islands on that slice.

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
