Clinical Technologies and Processes

Management in Healthcare

Public procurement, the strategic process governments use to efficiently and ethically acquire goods and services, is a critical administrative function. And yet, few who practice or teach government contracting have received much formal training in the theories, tactics, and techniques of public procurement. The Essential Guide to Public Procurement is designed for all those who "fall into" procurement with little formal training: academic instructors teaching procurement courses without specialized backgrounds, students in Public Administration programs seeking to understand government contracting, researchers exploring this interdisciplinary field, and practitioners at all levels of government who manage over $10 trillion allocated annually in global procurement spending.Each chapter combines academic research with practitioner insights, capturing key elements of the procurement process. Teaching cases developed in partnership with professional organizations like NIGP and NASPO make it an invaluable resource for both classroom instruction and professional development. Covering essential topics including strategic frameworks, regulations, procurement processes, and contract management, the book offers a thorough and up- to- date overview of the theoretical and practical perspectives that drive and govern procurement activities. In each chapter, authors examine the context and objectives of public procurement, the rules and institutions that shape government contracts, and the phases of the procurement process, equipping readers with the necessary knowledge to design and manage high- performing contracts. The book further identifies strategies to align procurement with broader public policy goals, including social impact and sustainability, and provides in- class activities to facilitate student learning. By bridging theory and realworld cases, The Essential Guide to Public Procurement equips practitioners, educators, and policymakers with the

Bridging Theory and Practice

The Essential Guide to Public Procurement

Reinventing public health careers through entrepreneurship.Public health has long been associated with government agencies and nonprofit organizations. Yet a growing number of professionals are forging new paths--launching businesses, consulting across sectors, and designing ventures that align market strategy with population health goals. In The Public Health Consultant, Charlotte Hughes Huntley offers a practical and motivating guide for professionals who want to build or expand entrepreneurial careers grounded in public health principles. Drawing on her own experience as an entrepreneur and other examples from the field, Huntley examines how public health training translates into business development, strategic partnerships, marketing, and innovation. The book addresses a shifting landscape in which traditional roles can feel unstable and interdisciplinary collaboration has become essential. As MPH/MBA programs expand and private-sector interest in public health expertise grows, professionals are seeking guidance on how to navigate contracts, pricing, branding, client relationships, and ethical decision-making while maintaining a commitment to equity and evidence-based practice. Huntley outlines concrete steps for clarifying one's vision, identifying opportunities, building sustainable business models, and positioning services in a competitive environment. She also considers the mindset shift required to move from employee to founder, helping readers reframe risk, ownership, and impact. Designed for public health professionals, students in MPH/MBA programs, and practitioners exploring independent or cross-sector work, The Public Health Consultant expands the definition of what a public health career can be--and equips readers to design one on their own terms.

The Public Health Consultant

This is the updated and expanded edition of the only radical, multidisciplinary, international introduction to intellectual property in its socio-economic contexts. Bringing together voices from law, sociology, economics, political science, and cultural studies from across the Global North and Global South, experts and activists Mat Callahan and Jim Rogers offer a detailed history and analysis of IP before asking critical questions designed to underscore its importance in the broader struggle between capital and the commons. What are the broader implications of IP, whether for agribusiness, pharmaceuticals, education, or entertainment? Is IP law a fundamental pillar of our culture, or has it been used to protect and assert the ownership of, and thus limit, the spread of ideas and creativity? With a chapter structure moving from historical and theoretical foundations to industry-specific conflicts and policy analysis, this book covers the breadth and depth of IP areas, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, as well as emerging issues such as digital rights and biotechnology. Key features include: - voluminous, up-to-date case studies, both Western and non-Western; - an extensive, jargon-busting list of abbreviations of specialized or technical terms; - a new chapter on copyright and socialism; - revisions and updates accounting for the seismic impacts of artificial intelligence. This is a foundational must-read for all researchers, students, and activists interested in critical analyses of IP laws and policies--not just their legal frameworks, but also their broader social, economic, and political implications.

A Radical Guide to the Past, Present, and Future of the Ownership of Ideas

Rethinking Intellectual Property

Effective supply chain management (SCM) in healthcare significantly impacts various aspects, including cost reduction, improved patient care, and enhanced efficiency. By optimizing inventory, reducing waste, and streamlining processes, healthcare organizations can improve financial performance, ensure timely access to essential supplies, and ultimately deliver better patient outcomes. SCM is essential for delivering high-quality care to improve patient experience. There is a large network of systems and processes that guarantee the delivery of medicines and supplies to healthcare institutions and patients. In addition, there are challenges to the supply chains such as disruptions, which force innovative strategies to mitigate negative consequences from these disruptions. Ensuring that products end up with customers is an important objective for all businesses, but it is completely critical in healthcare. Lives depend on receiving supplies and medications on a timely basis. Collaboration and communications between all involved in the healthcare supply chain-suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, healthcare institutions, clinicians-facilitate this movement of goods, services, and information. Only then will hospitals and other healthcare institutions meet patient needs. This book addresses many of the disruptors and delays experienced in the supply chain including regulatory compliance, fluctuating demand, systems' complexity, and visibility. The author also addresses how artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the supply chain as well as how digitalization has generated benefits and deliverables. The author shares his experience to examine the operational, regulatory, and strategic aspects in healthcare SCM as well as a look into the future and what is shaping the industry.

The Lies We’Re Fed About What We Eat and How to Break Free

Ultra-Processed Women

The incredible history and promise of inter-species organ transplantation, from an award-winning transplant surgeon. With more than 100,000 patients in the United States waiting for life-saving organ transplants, the shortage of organs will never be solved if someone must die for someone else to be saved. And yet a solution is well within reach: xenotransplantation, or the transplanting of organs between different species—the once unimaginable scientific achievement that Joshua Mezrich explores in Every Living Creature. The story begins with efforts using chimpanzees and baboons from the 1960s through the 1990s, rife with ethical and practical complications and disappointments. The successful cloning of Dolly the sheep revived xeno-optimism, followed by the discovery of CRISPR-Cas9, which finally opened the door to xenotransplantation in humans, using genetically modified pigs as organ donors. The protagonists of this story are as incredible as the science it details: a transgender visionary, the highest-paid female CEO in the world, who simply wants her daughter to live; the surgeon saved by a high-risk heart transplant, who swears by the promise of pigs’ organs; the brilliant and brash surgeon-scientist-entrepreneur, who is risking everything to make xenotransplantation a reality. Each plays a part in what is, in the end, the story of a miracle—not the answer to a prayer, as Every Living Creature makes clear, but a miracle we can breed.

“Constantly fascinating and impeccably reported...You won’t look at yourself in the same way again.” —Ed Yong, bestselling author of An Immense World and I Contain Multitudes A captivating exploration of the remarkable ways our DNA mutates over the course of our lives, with radical implications for the future of medicine Our DNA is the indispensable set of instructions that guides our growth and vitality. The common misconception is that this molecular blueprint stays the same throughout our lives. In reality, the genetic makeup of our cells is continuously mutating, from the moment we are conceived until our last breath. The hidden changes that amass in our genomes can have a huge influence on our health. In this groundbreaking book, science writer Roxanne Khamsi describes our bodies as active landscapes of mutation. She reveals how the forces of Darwinian evolution operate within our own tissues. The effects can be devastating, such as when mutant blood cells outcompete their normal counterparts and increase the risk of heart attacks. But mutations can also make our bodies more resilient: Liver cells with genetic changes seem to cope better with excess calories. And immune cells with remixed DNA can make more effective antibodies against the microbes that threaten us. By letting go of the antiquated idea that every cell in a body has the same exact DNA, we can usher in a whole new era of medicine, including better vaccines and treatments that outsmart cancer. Beyond Inheritance will open your eyes to the immense genetic diversity that exists within you and its incredible potential to shape your well-being.

Beyond Inheritance

Scientific advances in the biological and chemical sciences can offer significant benefits to humanity, but these discoveries may also lead to the proliferation of novel classes of weapons and new uses for them. This book explores the current challenges, risks, and opportunities posed by new scientific discoveries in this area. Focusing on non-human consequences of the use of chemical and biological weapons, issues discussed include their environmental impact; the use of herbicides in armed conflicts; the dangers presented by the transport of chemical and biological agents; the impact of technology on the development and/or manufacture of chemical and biological agents; and the various implementation efforts at national level across countries and regions. The work examines whether the prohibitions on the use of chemical and biological weapons are being weakened, or whether international responses to allegations of their use in recent armed conflicts are actually reinforcing the prohibitions. The book will be of interest to academics, researchers, and policymakers working in the areas of International Humanitarian Law, Security Law, Disarmament, Non-proliferation and Arms Control, International Relations, and Security Studies.Chapters 1, 2 and 9 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.
