Examining Core Elements of International Research Collaboration

Summary of a Workshop

The globalization of science, engineering, and medical research is proceeding rapidly. The globalization of research has important implications for the U.S. research enterprise, for the U.S. government agencies, academic institutions, and companies that support and perform research, and for the world at large. As science and technology capabilities grow around the world, U.S.-based organizations are finding that international collaborations and partnerships provide unique opportunities to enhance research and training. At the same time, significant obstacles exist to smooth collaboration across national borders. Enhancing international collaboration requires recognition of differences in culture, legitimate national security needs, and critical needs in education and training. In response to these trends, the Government-University-Industry Research Roundtable (GUIRR) launched a Working Group on International Research Collaborations (I-Group) in 2008, following its meeting on New Partnerships on a Global Platform that June. As part of I-Group's continuing effort, a workshop on Examining Core Elements of International Research Collaboration was held July 26-27, 2010 in Washington, DC. One primary goal of the workshop is to better understand the risks involved in international research collaboration for organizations and individual participants, and the mechanisms that can be used to manage those risks. Issues to be addressed in the workshop include the following: (1) Cultural Differences and Nuances; (2) Legal Issues and Agreements; (3) Differences in Ethical Standards; (4) Research Integrity and the Responsible Conduct of Research; (5) Intellectual Property; (6) Risk Management; (7) Export Controls; and (8) Strategies for Developing Meaningful International Collaborations. The goal for the workshop and the summary, Examining Core Elements of International Research Collaboration, is to serve as an information resource for participants and others interested in international research collaborations. It will also aid I-Group in setting its future goals and priorities.

Etika, politik, dan demokrasi

dinamika politik lokal di Indonesia

Ethics of local politicians, local elections, and democracy at local level in Indonesia; proceedings.

Kemudian bagi pak Yahya Wijaya, saya malahan lebih sepakat apa yang
dikatakan oleh cak Nur. bahwa Islam yes, tapi partai politik Islam no. Artinya
jangan sampai agama hanya dijadikan sebagai sebuah ajang politik. Betapa
banyak calon-calon bupati yang pada awalnya tidak pernah sholat, tidak pernah
ke masjid, tidak pernah ketemu yatim piatu, tetapi pada saat mau jadi bupati, itu
semua dilakukan. Jadi saya minta tanggapan bapak tentang bagaimana koalisi

Recent Advances on Model Hosts

Most studies of bacterial or fungal infectious diseases focus separately on the pathogenic microbe, the host response, or the characterization of therapeutic compounds. Compartmentalization of pathogenesis-related research into an analysis of the “pathogen”, the “host,” or the “antimicrobial compound” has largely been dictated by the lack of model systems in which all of these approaches can be used simultaneously, as well as by the traditional view that microbiology, immunology, and chemical biology and pharmacology are separate disciplines. An increasing number of workers from different fields have turned to insects, fish, worms and other model hosts as facile, ethically expedient, relatively simple, and inexpensive hosts to model a variety of human infectious diseases and to study host responses and innate immunity. Because many of these hosts are genetically tractable, they can be used in conjunction with an appropriate pathogen to facilitate the discovery of novel features of the host innate immune response. This book provides a series of reports from the 1st International Conference on Model Hosts. This first of its kind meeting focused on invertebrate, vertebrate and amoeboid systems used for the study of host-pathogen interactions, virulence and immunity, as well as on the relevance of these pathogenesis systems and mammalian models. Importantly, a common, fundamental set of molecular mechanisms is employed by a significant number of microbial pathogens against a widely divergent array of metazoan hosts. Moreover, the evolutionarily conserved immune responses of these model hosts have contributed important insights to our understanding of the innate immune response of mammals.

Introduction. Over the past two decades a number of findings made in Drosophila
melanogaster have provided important new insights into mammalian innate
immunity (Hoffmann et al. 1999; Martinelli and Reichhart 2005). The power of this
system is best exemplified by the discovery that Toll, a receptor used for dorso-
ventral patterning in ...

Facilitating Problem-Based Learning

An exploration of a broad range of issues relating to facilitation. It investigates understandings of facilitation; ways of equipping and supporting staff in terrestrial and virtual contexts; and ways of designing problem-based curricula that enhance learning.

This book has resulted from a number of challenges and concerns that have
emerged from both being a facilitator on various problem—based learning
programmes and equipping other tutors to become facilitators. As a lecturer and
researcher in higher education and as a consultant to those wishing to implement
problem-based learning, I have developed a range of strategies, practices and
perspectives about what appears to help and hinder the facilitation of
problembased learning.

Challenging Research In Problem-Based Learning

"This is a wide ranging, clearly focused, accessible book that engages with the practices and findings of research into problem-based learning... The book is clear on the problems and the strategies, the debates and the research based practices which make PBL accessible wherever it is suitable for effective learning." Professor Gina Wisker, Anglia Polytechnic University "This book punctures the sometimes inflated rhetoric about PBL by exploring some of its inherent difficulties and contradictions, and moves debate on through critical glimpses of the rich and varied practices undertaken under the banner of PBL." Professor Graham Gibbs, University of Oxford "...provides a wealth of practical and theoretical insights into the challenges of using pbl which will be of value both to those currently using the approach and those thinking of introducing it into their programmes." British Journal of Educational Technology This book presents international research into Problem-based Learning within a range of subject and vocational disciplines, applications and cultures from a variety of perspectives: student, facilitator, module leader, curriculum designer.It presents a range of findings related to designing, implementing, assessing and evaluating PBL courses. Challenging Research in Problem-based Learning is key reading for academics and tutors utilising PBL, as well as those studying for teaching qualifications, lecturers involved in teaching for the professions and on continuing professional development courses.

This part focuses on the student perspective in problem-based learning,
exploring issues related to how students may perceive problem-based learning
and what students learn from problem-based learning in addition to the material
stimulated by the presented problems. Problem-based learning is often credited
with the potential to 'add value' to learning through the acquisition of less tangible
skills such as team management, interviewing, lifelong learning, coping
mechanisms and ...
