Résumé : La France se trouve confrontée à des modifications démographiques importantes. L’allongement de la durée de vie, les perspectives de croissance du nombre des personnes âgées dépendantes et la démographie médicale corrélés à l’augmentation des dépenses de santé au niveau national, rendent inéluctable le développement des services e-santé notamment à domicil

The Internet is just one in a series of “intellectual technologies” that have reshaped the way humans think. Nicholas Carr discusses some technologies, prior to the Internet, that have radically reshaped the way our brains work. Some of the technologies include the map, clock, and book. This video is in lecture format. (5:00)
Taste refers to our five sensitivities — sweet, sour, salt, bitter, and umami — while flavor is a “hedonic” sense involving smell, texture, and expectation. Biologist Stuart Firestein from Columbia University discusses the difference between the two. The video is in lecture format. (02:30)
Biologist Stuart Firestein discusses the science behind why some things taste good while other things taste bad. “There are some things that simply disgust us in a very, very instinctive, deep kind of way. And there are other things that we clearly learn to find either good or bad,” says Firestein. The video is in lecture format.

Produced by British film pioneer Cecil Hepworth, around 20 of the popular series of 'Tilly' films were made between 1910 and 1915. Surviving episodes are brimming with a sense of anarchic fun as they follow the adventures of naughty schoolgirls Tilly and Sally, played by Chrissie White and Alma Taylor, who went on to become major stars of '20s British cinema.
'Tilly, the Tomboy...' is available to view here in a version re-edited to approximate the original cut (surviving archive materials were
In this SchoolHouse Rock video, students will learn about how the human body works as a machine . Some key vocabulary words include the following: fuel, energy, protein, carbohydrates, fat, saliva, gastric juices, and small intestines. This is a fun teaching resource for learning about the human body and different systems in the classroom. (3:01).
In early spring 2004, a mating pair of red tailed hawks set up residence on the MIT campus in front of Building 9. These hawks were reported to have been building nests on the MIT campus for several years. They nested in a spot where Academic Media Production Services could capture and share a peek at a hawk's life, providing a 24x7 live webcast that we delivered that came to be known as the MIT Hawkcam. People all over campus and from around the US were watching as the two hawk chicks grew up.
The first part of the third class in Dr Joel Feinstein's G12MAN Mathematical Analysis module covers the properties of the Euclidian norm, including triangle inequality and homogeneity.
