ALPS stands for Arc Lémanique Plant Science.
It is a regional network between Scientists at the University of Geneva and Lausanne.
It is part of a national network, the Swiss Plant Science Web which has an additional two local networks covering most of Switzerland Universities involved in research in plant science.

Each local network follows the same goals while each of them takes a specific role in the overall running structure.

Alps Network advisers are authorised representatives (AR) and the Alps Network Pty Ltd is a Corporate Authorised Representative (CAR) No. 404854 of their Licensee The FinancialLink Group Pty Ltd AFSL 240938 located at Level 1, 90 Vulture Street West End, Qld 4101, contact number: 1300 133 511. The network of communities Alliance in the Alps is an association of currently more than 300 local authorities and regions from seven Alpine states and was founded in 1997. On the basis of the targets set by the Alpine Convention, its members, together with their citizens, work to develop their alpine living environment in a sustainable way.

1. We apply spatial graph theory to estimate the stability of the existing PA network and identify critical unprotected areas among alpine plant populations in the Alps (Rozenfeld et al., 2008, Watson et al., 2011), as this provides a quantitative framework to relate genetic and habitat variation to spatial processes on landscapes impacted by land-use.
2. BackgroundInfants who are born at 34 to 36 weeks of gestation (late preterm) are at greater risk for adverse respiratory and other outcomes than those born at 37 weeks of gestation or later.
3. Alps Alpine attends to the myriad needs of customers with a diverse product lineup centered on devices. We continue to create high-performance, high-quality products for home appliances, audio-visual equipment, mobile tools like smartphones, and gaming technology.

ALPS provides a networking platform to the 19 group leaders working on various aspects of plant molecular biology at the University Geneva and the University of Lausanne. ALPS regroups over 140 students, post-doctoral fellows and support personnel.

ALPS has available a number of equipments for protein analysis and spectroscopy. These include:

- In Geneva(contact: Theresa Fitzpatrick)

1) Multi Angle Light Scattering (MALS) analysis
MALS is used to determine the oligomeric state, the molecular mass Mw and the quality of a biological macromolecule or macromolecular complex. It is coupled online to size exclusion chromatography.

2) Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC)
ITC is a non-invasive technique to determine precise binding parameters (enthalpy, entropy, and binding constants) for molecular interactions between proteins, nucleic acid and chemicals. It is also a powerful method to analyse enzyme kinetics.

- In Lausanne(contact: Christiane Nawrath)

FTIR spectroscopy and microscopy analysis
FTIR is a powerful spectroscopic technique commonly used to identify chemical compounds based on their vibrations in the mid-infrared region of the spectrum. It is a non-invasive and non-destructive chemical analysis technique as samples usually require either none or limited treatment for measurement. FTIR allows analysis of a very wide range of samples: tissues (leaves, stems, roots, flowers, etc.), thin films (e.g. obtained using microtome or by evaporation of solvents), solutions/extracts, powders. FTIR microscopy (FTIRM) and FTIR imaging (FTIRI) are techniques combining light microscopy and IR microscopy. Light microscopy is used to magnify structural detail in samples, while IR spectroscopy provides information on molecular chemistry. Their combination permits chemical analysis in microscopic detail.

ALPS allows students to choose courses at either Universities which can fully be recognised in their plan of studies.

Being part of the national SPSW network, ALPS provides wider opportunities for students and scientists to attend workshop, summer schools or have access to specific state of the art equipments for molecular research.

The network of communities Alliance in the Alps is an association of currently more than 300 local authorities and regions from seven Alpine states and was founded in 1997. On the basis of the targets set by the Alpine Convention,^[1] its members, together with their citizens, work to develop their alpine living environment in a sustainable way. “Exchange – Address – Implement” is the guiding principle behind the Alliance’s activities.

The network of communities offers a sharing of experience and information beyond the boundaries of language and culture. All the publications and events are in four languages: German, French, Italian and Slovene.

Activities[edit]

The network « Alliance in the Alps » promotes the exchange of knowledge and experience, threw setting up events and excursions at local, regional or international level. It also plans to formulate policy positions for a sustainable and environmentally approach to climate change by municipalities. The annual report is published in the four main languages of the alpine space, and a newsletter 'Flashinfo' is sent by email quarterly.

Members[edit]

The network is currently counting 316 municipalities members ^[2] in seven countries: Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Liechtenstein, Slovenia, Switzerland . A membership requires the assent to the principles and goals of the Alpine Convention. Afterwards, the members also have to implement sustainable goals, to develop measure programs protecting the environment, and to constantly improve the environmental protection.

Projects[edit]

dynAlp-climate[edit]

Climate changes are currently the focus of many actors. Unfortunately the measures adopted in some cases disagree with the principle of sustainable development and are opposite to nature conservation. That’s why the network of municipalities believes it is so important to support its members in embracing a sustainable approach to the problem of climate change.

Focussing on climate changes, the new dynAlp-climate program is running from 2009 to 2012. It has a budget of around 800,000 euros, due to the financial support from the MAVA Foundation for Nature. The financial assistance is intended for projects in municipalities or regions which are providing a contribution to climate protection and adaptation to climate change impacts.

In parallel with the municipal projects, group events such as workshops, excursions and international meetings are a key activity of dynAlp-climate as well. These help to increase networking between the alpine municipalities and thus help to make local knowledge accessible to a large public.

DYNALP2[edit]

With the DYNALP² project (2006–2009), 'Alliance in the Alps' carried on the work on sustainable development and implementation of the Alpine Convention.DYNALP² implements the findings from CIPRA’s Future in the Alps Project'^[4] at the community level and promotes exchanges between the municipalities. DYNALP² projects focus on one or more of the following topic areas: regional added value, governance capacity, protected areas, mobility, new forms of decision making, and policies and instruments.

DYNALP[edit]

Launched in 2003, DYNALP was an INTERREG IIIB “Alpine space” project supported by the EU. With a total budget of 2.16 million euros for a period of three years, it helped to fund the development, coordination and implementation of 52 community or regional projects for the following four protocols of the Alpine Convention: Tourism, Conservation of Nature and the Countryside, Mountain Farming and Regional Planning and Sustainable Development.In addition to projects in communes, sharing experiences across borders language and culture was the most important goal of DYNALP.

The “Alliance of Central Asian Mountain Communities”^[5] was founded in June 2003 in the Tadjik capital Dushanbe on the model of the 'Alliance in the Alps' network. Like its sister organisation in the Alps, this Central Asian community network is active in the area of sustainable development in mountain communities and knowledge-sharing at the community level. With an agenda of mutual visits, excursions and information-exchange, the organisation became as well a platform for good practice and interesting projects.
