The Economic Welfare and Community Development: The Crosstab Analysis of “Johnson City Partners Ny” Business Strategies

HIDIROĞLU, DUYGU

Community development plays a pivotal role in economic welfare and national progress, as it focuses on improving the economic, social, and cultural conditions of localized communities, which are fundamental to national growth. According to the United Nations, national development can only be achieved through the equitable and inclusive advancement of smaller social units like neighborhoods, towns, and rural areas. This paper explores the case of Johnson City, New York, where the revitalization of Downtown—stimulated by the establishment of Binghamton University’s Health Sciences Campus—demonstrates the transformative effects of community development. Businesses such as The Grapevine Café and Sole City Coffee have flourished, enhancing employment opportunities, sustainability, and community...

Tuncer,, Pürhan Barbaros

Ex situ koruma, genetik kaynakların ve nesli tükenmekte olan kanatlıların korunmasında önemli bir yöntemdir. Gamet koruması için kanatlılarda tek yöntem spermanın dondurulmasıdır. Çünkü kanatlı yumurtaları oldukça hacimlidir ve bunların dondurularak saklanması için kullanılan kriyoprotektanların çözüm sonu uzaklaştırılması pek mümkün değildir. Son yirmi yılda, standart kanatlı spermasının don durma teknolojisini geliştirmek için birçok çalışma yapılmıştır. Farklı ırklara uyum sağlamak için birçok girişim ve yöntem araştırılmıştır. Bu bölümde, ilk olarak spermatozoanın yapısı ve kanatlı spermasının dondurulmasını etkileyen ana faktörlerden bahsedilmiştir.
