Dr. Sherman P. Vinograd fulfilled the roles of Chief of Medical Science and Technology and Director of Biomedical Research at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from the fall of 1961 until the spring of 1979. In this role he shaped, organized, and directed NASA's program of medical research as a funded program of studies, which was carried out in not only NASA Center laboratories, but also in university, industry, and other government laboratories and hospitals all over the country. It produced a large substrate of information through its bed rest studies, vestibular, bone, neuromuscular, hematology, and cardiovascular researches. It also produced valuable fall-out, such as an accurate bone density measurement technique which is now in common clinical use. ; His major activities during this career were conceptualizing, establishing, and chairing the Space Medicine Advisory Group (SPAMAG) charged with defining the earth-based and space-based research and life-support requirements for a manned orbiting research laboratory. This group designed a carefully planned study utilizing highly qualified, specialized members of the scientific community. They postulated a non-existent orbiting laboratory to be designed according to the needs of future human flight crews and requirements for human spaceflight information. This would result in the creation of Skylab. ; He was also responsible for establishing the In-flight Medical Experiments Program in preparation for the Apollo series of manned space flights. This program was a series of carefully designed flight crew studies derived from proposals by qualified scientists both from within and outside NASA to evaluate human responses to spaceflight. ; In addition, Dr. Vinograd developed a supportive Research and Development Program necessary to provide pertinent ground-based data and to advance state-of-the-art medical measurement technology, a major development of which was the Integrated Medical and Behavioral Laboratory Measurement System (IMBLMS). This consisted of medical experiments and accompanying equipment necessary to perform them that was used from the Gemini through the Skylab manned space flight programs. Carried aboard virtually any post-Apollo space vehicle by virtue of its rack and module design, these designs were used well into the future. He also fostered the continuing ground-based medical research program sponsored and/or conducted by NASA. ; The Dr. Sherman P. Vinograd Aerospace Exploration collection consists of artifacts, books, correspondence, financial materials, newspapers, photographs, plaques, printed materials, and reports relating to Dr. Vinograd's early life, his career as an M. D. prior to joining NASA, his years as a physician and researcher at NASA, and the other professional organizations and projects in which he was involved both during and after these periods. ; Box 7, Folder 22

Through this research, first a review of the definition of a museum is made, as well as its legal classification. Subsequently, the legislation on copyright applicable to museums is analyzed in order to determine the current possibilities of virtualization of the works that they have in on-site exhibition. Upon verifying the existing problems, the need for a new limitation or exception to the economic rights of author is raised to encourage the reproduction and public communication of works by museums and private collections to promote access to culture. ; A través de la presente investigación, en primer lugar, se hace una revisión de la definición de museo, así como su clasificación legal. Posteriormente, se analiza la legislación sobre derecho de autor aplicable a los museos con la finalidad de determinar las actuales posibilidades de virtualización de las obras que tienen en exhibición presencial. Al constatar los problemas existentes, se plantea la necesidad de un nuevo límite o excepción al derecho patrimonial de autor con la finalidad de incentivar la reproducción y comunicación pública de obras por parte de museos y colecciones privadas en aras de promover el acceso a la cultura.

Las tasas de crecimiento industrial colombiano en los 30 superaban el 10%, mientras el dinamismo global de la economia era especialmente bajo. Estudia el sector textil que, por si solo, explica la mitad del crecimiento industrial entre 1930-39 y el 67% entre 1940-45. Descarta la influencia que pudo haber jugado la devaluacion y el arancel como aspecto secundario del proceso de auge y relativiza el papel detonante de la demanda. La clave se encontraria en que, bajo condiciones de oferta ilimitada de mano de obra, fue crucial la existencia de una nueva y pujante burguesia nacional que supo aprovechar las oportunidades que brindaba el mercado internacional, a diferencia de otros pequenos paises con economias de enclave donde, como han puesto de manifiesto otros autores (Frank, Cardoso, Fallet
