Item type:Publication, Rural tourism as a dynamizing agent of the local economic development of Huacar in Huanuco, Perú(2020-03-16)Rural tourism is an alternative within conventional tourism that, through an appropriate organization, allows them to take advantage of the environment and specifically the tourist resources they have and their popular culture as a central part of their tourism offer. The objective of the research is to analyze the influence of rural tourism as a dynamic agent of the local economic development of Huacar in Huanuco, promoting the generation of greater dynamics and diversity of its productive activities. The survey was applied to the inhabitants of the area with a sample of 196, obtaining in the results that there is direct influence of rural tourism as an agent that boosts the economic development of the families of the district of Huacar, generating positive impacts, although of little consideration in favor of residents, improving their income, employment, housing conditions .. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Exploring the nonaffiliated in South America(Oxford University Press, 2021-06-01)This work explores the phenomenon of the “nonaffiliated” in Latin America and presents partial results of a qualitative research project that included in-depth interviews with fifty-eight nonaffiliated in Cordoba (Argentina), Lima (Peru), and Montevideo (Uruguay). After analyzing the main differences between nonbelievers and believers who have no religious affiliation, we propose a typology for understanding these two groups, which display great diversity within themselves while adopting characteristics of the cultures of their own countries. Three large groups are identified: atheists, nonconfessional, and indifferent. Among the atheists, we find two emphases: militant and indifferent. Among the nonconfessional believers, three groups are identified: those who engage in individual practices related to transcendence, those who engage in collective practices, and those who abandoned Christianity yet express their religiosity in the same keys. The indifferent are those to whom religion deserves no attention. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Grambank reveals the importance of genealogical constraints on linguistic diversity and highlights the impact of language loss(Center for Open Science, 2022-12-04)While global patterns of human genetic diversity are increasingly well characterized, the diversity of human languages remains less systematically described. Here we outline the Grambank database. With over 400,000 data points and 2,400 languages, Grambank is the largest comparative grammatical database available. The comprehensiveness of Grambank allows us to quantify the relative effects of genealogical inheritance and geographic proximity on the structural diversity of the world's languages, evaluate constraints on linguistic diversity, and identify the world's most unusual languages. An analysis of the consequences of language loss reveals that the reduction in diversity will be strikingly uneven across the major linguistic regions of the world. Without sustained efforts to document and revitalize endangered languages, our linguistic window into human history, cognition and culture will be seriously fragmented. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, CoDNaS-Q: A database of conformational diversity of the native state of proteins with quaternary structure(Oxford University Press, 2022-11-01)SUMMARY: A collection of conformers that exist in a dynamical equilibrium defines the native state of a protein. The structural differences between them describe their conformational diversity, a defining characteristic of the protein with an essential role in multiple cellular processes. Since most proteins carry out their functions by assembling into complexes, we have developed CoDNaS-Q, the first online resource to explore conformational diversity in homooligomeric proteins. It features a curated collection of redundant protein structures with known quaternary structure. CoDNaS-Q integrates relevant annotations that allow researchers to identify and explore the extent and possible reasons of conformational diversity in homooligomeric protein complexes. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: CoDNaS-Q is freely accessible at http://ufq.unq.edu.ar/codnasq/ or https://codnas-q.bioinformatica.org/home. The data can be retrieved from the website. The source code of the database can be downloaded from https://github.com/SfrRonaldo/codnas-q. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, A Latin American perspective on microbiome research(Nature Research, 2025)The human gut microbiome plays a crucial role in human health, adapting and responding to changes in diet, environment, and lifestyle. However, current microbiome research is heavily biased toward high-income countries, leaving regions such as Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) severely underrepresented. This imbalance limits our global understanding of microbial diversity and hinders the development of region-specific health interventions. In this Perspective, we discuss how LAC offers an exceptional opportunity for microbiome studies due to its unique ethnic diversity, rapid urbanization, distinct dietary traditions, and dual burden of infectious and chronic diseases. We highlight key findings from regional microbiome research, emphasizing the high diversity of ancestral microbial communities and the rapid shifts occurring in response to urbanization and globalization. To address existing disparities, we also introduce the Latinbiota Consortium, a collaborative network formed to strengthen local scientific capacity, ensure ethical and equitable research practices, promote data sovereignty, and foster inclusive participation by LAC researchers within global microbiome science. Through strategic investment and international collaboration, Latinbiota aims to preserve microbial diversity and ensure equitable participation in global microbiome science.1
