Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to introduce the conceptual foundations and motivation for creating a digital archive to display the developments in the field of robotics over the past 50 years.Design/methodology/approach – The paper proposes that the archive should be based on the conceptualization of science as an “ecology of knowledge”, composed of diverse sets of human and nonhuman actors evolving through associations across multiple social, epistemic, and temporal units of organization. The paper also discusses the roles of different data sources as memory practices primarily used in situated and systemic studies of science.Findings – The paper shows the value of using full capabilities of the current technology to allow for non‐linear representations of the material within a digital archive.Originality/value – The paper contributes to the discussion of the implications of new information technologies such as digital archives for memory practices in science studies and the sciences.

The managers of Brazilian football have never bothered to train coaches for the grassroots leagues. To train children and teenagers, they have preferred to use former players needing to keep working to survive. However, possessing a vast experience as a professional football player has never been enough for one to understand the process of growth and development at this stage of life. The fragile architecture that supports ambitious agents, non-professional and underpaidstaff and dreaming boys, and which has no physical, technical or emotional support, is born doomed to failure. We are twenty years behind the European model, in which the specialized training of coaches capable of identifying and training new talents is a permanent concern of football federations.

FMF is a very rare disease in Slovenia and so far only few cases were diagnosed. It is known that environment influences the clinical picture of FMF.

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal-recessive disorder characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and serositis common in eastern Mediterranean population. Over 160 mutations have been identified in MEFV gene responsible for FMF. The most common mutations in MEFV gene are E148Q, M694I, M694V, V726A and M680I. The distribution pattern of MEFV mutation along the Mediterranean Sea is not uniform; eastern populations have the highest number of carriers (20-39%), whereas western Mediterranean populations are practically unaffected.
