HOST SELECTION [6 records]

Record 1 2020-11-18

Subject field(s)
  • International Bodies and Committees
  • Committees and Boards (Admin.)
  • Games and Competitions (Sports)
OBS

The National Olympic Committees(NOCs) promote the fundamental principles of Olympism at a national level within the framework of sports. NOCs are committed to the development of athletes and support the development of sport for all programs and high performance sport in their countries. They also participate in the training of sports administrators by organizing educational programs. Another objective of the National Olympic Committees is to ensure that athletes from their respective nations attend the Olympic Games. Only a NOC is able to select and send teams and competitors for participation in the Olympic Games. National Olympic Committees also supervise the preliminary selection of potential bid cities. Before a candidate city can compete against those in other countries, it first must win the selection process by the NOC in its own country. The National Olympic Committee can then name that city to the IOC as a candidate to host the Olympic Games.

OBS

Les Comités Nationaux Olympiques (CNO) diffusent les principes fondamentaux de l'Olympisme, au niveau national, dans le cadre de l'activité sportive. Les CNO veillent à la préparation des athlètes, à soutenir le développement du sport pour tous ainsi que du sport de haut niveau dans leurs pays. Ils participent également à la préparation des cadres sportifs, notamment en organisant des stages. Les Comités Nationaux Olympiques ont également pour objectif de s'assurer que les athlètes issus de leurs nations respectives participent aux Jeux Olympiques. Seuls les CNO sont habilités à sélectionner et à envoyer des équipes et des concurrents pour participer aux Jeux Olympiques. Les Comités Nationaux Olympiques supervisent également la phase de sélection préliminaire des villes candidates potentielles. Avant de pouvoir affronter d'autres villes dans d'autres pays, la ville candidate doit d'abord être sélectionnée par le CNO au sein de son propre pays. Le Comité National Olympique peut ensuite indiquer au CIO le nom de la ville choisie, en tant que ville candidate susceptible d'accueillir les Jeux Olympiques.

OBS

Le Comité International Olympique (CIO) demande de respecter le nom des Jeux Olympiques tel qu'établi dans la Charte olympique, soit d'utiliser la majuscule «O». Par contre, les règles d'écriture de la langue française recommandent d'utiliser «Jeux olympiques», graphie préconisée par Sport Canada.

Record 6 1986-12-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biochemistry
  • Genetics
CONT

The essential ingredients of a recombinant DNA experiment are : 1. A DNA vehicle(vector, replicon) which can replicate in living cells after foreign DNA is inserted into it. 2. A DNA molecule to be replicated(passenger), or a collection of them. 3. A method of joining the passenger to the vehicle. 4. A means of introducing the joined DNA molecule into a host organism in which it can replicate(DNA transformation or transfection). 5. A means of screening or genetic selection for those cells that have replicated the desired recombinant molecule. This is necessary since transformation and transfection methods are inefficient, so that most members of the host cell population have no recombinant DNA replicating in them. This selection or screening for desired recombinants provides a route to recovery of the recombinant DNA of interest in pure form.
