The article presents the prestigious tradition of ISSK and BAS of conducting annual national conferences in ethics since 2004. The article presents information on thirteen scientific such conferences focused on the zones of moral sensitivity in our society and on the ethical risks arising in various social spheres. These forums have served as a means for uniting society, the state and the citizens around ethics debate and for widening the “boundaries of respect” in society. The article shows how these conferences create a unified national ethical space that consolidates Bulgarian ethical thinkers, enables interaction between the scientific and academic communities, and provokes interdisciplinary discussions.

This paper makes a review of different concepts regarding the analysis of the nature and object of scientific theory, its methodology and the evolution of science. The proposed analysis refers to researchers and certain works regarded as representative, despite their conflicting ideas. Each new method of analysis reveals, however, the complex and multifaceted structure of science. Thus, we present the basic concepts in the history of science, especially those referred to in the works of the following researchers: G. Sarton, G. Bachelard, A. Koyré, Th. Kuhn, I. Locks, S. Toulmin, K. Popper, J. Hintikka.

Several dramatic moments took place during the Second World War and little after in the history of the „Grigore Antipa” National Musem of Natural History from Romania. In 1942 it was intended to move the museum to another location and demolish the old building dating from 1908. Grigore Antipa succeeded in saving the museum through an inteligent and firm campaign at the highest state level. On March 9, 1944 Grigore Antipa died due to heart problems, followed by his wife, Alina, who comited suicide. In June 1944 the museum, bought by the Ministry of National Education, received Prince Aristide Caradja’s collection of butterflies from Grumăzeşti, Neamţ, the most valuable of all collection of this museum. On June 28, 1944 the first bombs fell over Victoria Square, one of which fell in front of the museum, destroying the glass roof of the middle part of the building. The next bombardment took place on August 24, 1944, executed by the Germans; four bombs hit the southern part of the museum building, producing a lot of damages to the furniture and to the collections. The staff of the former Museum of Bessarabia from Chisinau were hired by the „Grigore Antipa” Museum from Bucharest.

This paper aims to introduce the reader into the neuron’s gradual discovery since the late nineteenth century and it also become an opportunity to pay homage to the great Romanian neurologist, professor and academician Gheorghe Marinescu. Methodologically, this paper is a bibliographic study focused on two works that summarize the results of the neuron’ sci¬entific researches both at the begining of the XXth and XXIst centuries: 1. G. Marinescu, ‘Data and new research on the nerve cell’s biology’ (1916) and 2. R. Brillaud, L-Y. Bocquet, E. Abdoun, ‘Incroyables neurones!’ (2012). The results of the paper points out, on one hand, the major neu¬rological scientific contribution of the professor and researcher Gheorghe Marinescu in its period of time, and on the other hand, they introduce in neuroscience as it is perceived nowadays, mainly by interdisciplinary approach,while the neuro-continent goes on provoking, intriguing and defying researchers’ limits.
