Das Collaborative-Law-Verfahren ist vermutlich das jüngste und eigenwilligste Mitglied in der Familie der ADR-Methoden. Vor etwa 20 Jahren begann sein Siegeszug durch die Landschaft der familienrechtlichen Streitbeilegung in den USA. In Deutschland gibt es inzwischen erste Ausbildungsgänge und vereinzelt Netzwerke, die dieses Verfahren anbieten. Der Beitrag beleuchtet Charakteristika dieser Methode wie auch Chancen und Grenzen der Nutzung von Collaborative Law in Deutschland.

"Originating from the monumental ensemble of the arcade court of Vienna University, this thematic issue is dedicated to the traditon of academic memorials in a european-wide comparison. The first part of the volume focusses on the monuments of the Vienna University in context of development history and changing cultural and political framework conditions. The second part shows the european perspektive and focusses on the ancient and early modern era origins of the hall of honour, and the the different manifestation in chosen european countries until today. The issue contributes with its diverse methodical articles in a significant way to a discursive discussion on traditon and currency of academic memorials."

Because our beliefs regarding our individuality, autonomy, and personhood are intimately bound up with our brains, there is a public fascination with cerebral organoids, the "mini-brain," the "brain in a dish". At the same time, the ethical issues around organoids are only now being explored. What are the prospects of using human cerebral organoids to better understand, treat, or prevent dementia? Will human organoids represent an improvement on the current, less-than-satisfactory, animal models? When considering these questions, two major issues arise. One is the general challenge associated with using any stem cell-generated preparation for in vitro modelling (challenges amplified when using organoids compared with simpler cell culture systems). The other relates to complexities associated with defining and understanding what we mean by the term "dementia." We discuss 10 puzzles, issues, and stumbling blocks to watch for in the quest to model "dementia in a dish." ; The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: The Australian Dementia Stem Cell Consortium has received generous start-up travel grants from the Australian NHMRC National Institute for Dementia Research.
