Hoja informativa: Indicadores de I&D agropecuaria: Bolivia
El BID ha venido financiando la recopilación de datos de América Latina y el Caribe desde hace varios años del programa de Indicadores de Ciencia y Tecnología Agropecuaria (ASTI). ASTI es una fuente de datos de libre acceso y confiables sobre sistemas de investigación agropecuaria de países en desarrollo, vinculado al Instituto Internacional de Investigación sobre Políticas Alimentarias (IFPRI, por sus iniciales en inglés) y parte del Programa del CGIAR. ASTI trabaja con una amplia red de colaboradores nacionales para recopilar, compilar y publicar datos sobre recursos humanos, financieros e institucionales, a nivel nacional y regional, de organizaciones gubernamentales, instituciones de educación superior, entidades sin fines de lucro y (cuando es posible) de organizaciones privadas de investigación agropecuaria con fines de lucro.

Superficial white matter (SWM) contains the most cortico-cortical white matter connections in the human brain encompassing the short U-shaped association fibers. Despite its importance for brain connectivity, very little is known about SWM in humans, mainly due to the lack of noninvasive imaging methods. Here, we lay the groundwork for systematic in vivo SWM mapping using ultrahigh resolution 7 T magnetic resonance imaging. Using biophysical modeling informed by quantitative ion beam microscopy on postmortem brain tissue, we demonstrate that MR contrast in SWM is driven by iron and can be linked to the microscopic iron distribution. Higher SWM iron concentrations were observed in U-fiber-rich frontal, temporal, and parietal areas, potentially reflecting high fiber density or late myelination in these areas. Our SWM mapping approach provides the foundation for systematic studies of interindividual differences, plasticity, and pathologies of this crucial structure for cortico-cortical connectivity in humans.
