The JMA HSPH Taro Takemi Memorial International Symposium “Community Health Systems and Innovations: Building the Foundation for Universal Health Coverage” was held on February 17, 2018. The symposium was co-organized by the Japan Medical Association, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, the Tokyo Medical Association, and Takemi Memorial Trust for Research of Seizon and Life Sciences. The goal of this symposium was to provide a discussion board for medical associations, academia, well being coverage makers, and different stakeholders to focus on the best way ahead to develop common well being protection (UHC) in a quickly altering surroundings surrounding well being and human well-being, an idea that may be traced to the philosophy of late Dr. Taro Takemi.
The three keynote lectures supplied huge social and moral in addition to historic and international views on well being. They have been adopted by three classes that every addressed one central theme: classes learnt from the Japanese expertise of responding to unprecedented demographic challenges (Session 1), how improvements can hyperlink nationwide and international well being insurance policies with individuals’s well-being (Session 2), and how these efforts could be sustained (Session 3). Finally, a concluding lecture tried to apply the philosophy of Dr. Taro Takemi, referred to as Seizon and Life Sciences, to UHC based mostly on the discussions of the symposium.
In our opinion, Dr. Taro Takemi’s foresight and philosophy must be revisited after we try to tackle current and future challenges; due to this fact, this symposium shall be remembered for opening new methods of pondering. In the final decade, the sphere of sequence-defined polymers and associated ultraprecise, monodisperse artificial macromolecules has grown exponentially. In the early stage, primarily articles or critiques devoted to the event of artificial routes towards their preparation have been revealed. Nowadays, these artificial methodologies, mixed with the elucidation of the structure-property relationships, permit envisioning many promising purposes.
Consequently, previously Three years, application-oriented papers based mostly on discrete artificial macromolecules emerged. Hence, materials science purposes comparable to macromolecular information storage and encryption, self-assembly of discrete buildings and foldamers have been the thing of many desirable research. Moreover, within the space of life sciences, such buildings have additionally been the main focus of quite a few analysis research. Here, it’s aimed to spotlight these current purposes and to give the reader a vital overview of the long run traits on this space of analysis.
How environment friendly are German life sciences? Econometric proof from a latent class stochastic output distance mannequin
This article investigates the technical effectivity in German larger training whereas accounting for attainable heterogeneity within the manufacturing expertise. We examine whether or not a latent class mannequin would establish the totally different sub-disciplines of life sciences in a pattern of biology and agricultural models based mostly on technological variations. We match a latent class stochastic frontier mannequin to estimate the parameters of an output distance operate formulation of the manufacturing expertise to examine if a technological separation is significant alongside sub-disciplinary strains.
We apply bootstrapping strategies for mannequin validation. Our evaluation depends on evaluating a novel dataset that matches data on larger academic establishments supplied by the Federal Statistical Office of Germany with the bibliometric data extracted from the ISI Web of Science Database. The estimates point out that neglecting to account for the attainable existence of latent courses leads to a biased notion of effectivity. A classification right into a research-focused and teaching-focused decision-making unit improves mannequin match in contrast to the pooled stochastic frontier mannequin.
Additionally, research-focused models have the next median technical effectivity than teaching-focused models. As the analysis focus is extra prevalent within the biology subsample an evaluation not contemplating the potential existence of latent courses would possibly misleadingly give the looks of the next imply effectivity of biology. In reality, we discover no proof of a distinction within the imply technical efficiencies for German agricultural sciences and biology utilizing the latent class mannequin. Here we current a scientific research of expertise licensing by one such establishment, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Academic establishments play a central position within the biotech trade by expertise licensing and the creation of startups, however few information can be found on their efficiency and the magnitude of their impression. Using information on the 76 therapeutics-focused life sciences corporations shaped by MIT’s Technology Licensing Office from 1983 to 2017, we assemble a number of measures of impression, together with MIT patents cited within the Orange Book, capital raised, outcomes from mergers and acquisitions, patents granted to MIT mental property licensees, drug candidates found and US drug approvals-a key benchmark of innovation within the biopharmaceutical trade.
[Exploration and practice of blended teaching in “Introduction to Life Sciences” for non-biology students]
In the period of Internet +, educating fashions in universities are present process adjustments due to the fast improvement of data expertise. Blended educating, combining on-line with offline educating, is being applied and developed in universities. In order to reform educating mode and enhance educating impact, the curriculum crew carried out the exploration of blended educating reform for the “Introduction to Life Sciences” for non-biology college students. The course mixed high-level MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), small class educating, diversified platform and multi-dimensional educating mode, constructed a multi-disciplinary collaborative educating crew.

shaped a multi-dimensional analysis system specializing in course of and capacity, practiced the training idea of combining data educating and worth main, gained precious sensible expertise, and achieved the anticipated educating outcomes. It can present reference for the reform and building of related programs in different schools and universities. The improvement of blended educating expands the breadth and depth of educating, stimulates college students’ curiosity and potential for studying, opens up college students’ pondering and perspective, cultivates college students’ scientific literacy and complete capacity, and performs a constructive position within the cultivation of modern and inter-disciplinary skills.
