BOX handleiding: Lexicaal Semantische Afasietherapie
by Evy Visch-BrinkBOX is een therapieprogramma voor de behandeling van lexicaal-semantische stoornissen. Deze stoornissen komen frequent voor bij afasiepatiënten, onafhankelijk van het type afasie. De patiënt kent woordbetekenissen niet of niet volledig. 'Tram’ wordt bijvoorbeeld opgevat als ‘bus’ of in plaats van ‘lepel’ zegt men ‘vork’. Bij een ernstige lexicaal-semantische stoornis wijken de fouten nog meer af van het doelwoord. Ook komt het voor dat de patiënt niets zegt of de specifieke inhoudswoorden omzeilt door generalisaties (‘dingen’, ‘doen’ etc.). Het niet of gedeeltelijk onderkennen van woordbetekenis beïnvloedt het begrip en de productie van geschreven en gesproken taal.BOX bestaat uit 8 onderdelen: semantische categorieën, semantische gradiënt, syntagmatische en paradigmatische relaties, deel-geheel relaties, bijvoeglijke naamwoorden en uitroepen, semantische anomalieën, semantische definities en semantische context.In ieder onderdeel zijn twee of drie moeilijkheidsgraden verwerkt. De oefeningen worden in geschreven woorden aangeboden. De patiënt kan het antwoord zeggen en/of aanwijzen. BOX bestaat uit meer dan 1000 oefeningen en kan gebruikt worden voor minimaal 60 uur therapie.
BRAF Targets in Melanoma: Biological Mechanisms, Resistance, and Drug Discovery (Cancer Drug Discovery and Development #82)
by Ryan J. SullivanThis volume contains a collection of writings from the leaders in the fields of Molecular Biology and Melanoma Research which will begin to tell the ever-expanding story of the most recent findings, discoveries, and potential of BRAF-directed targets in melanoma. Recent research has shown that BRAF inhibitors are effective for a short period of time, but there is little hope that this drugs as single agents will lead to durable benefit in a majority of patients. Among scientists and researchers who work in drug discovery, there is a lot of interest in the development of molecularly targeted cancer agents. Namely, the identification of a molecular target, the selection of molecules which effectively inhibit this target. What is starkly different about the development of this class of compounds, however, is that the mechanism of action of these agents are not as straightforward as was once previously assumed and the mechanisms of resistance that tumor cells employ to evade complete destruction are unlike any that have been described before. These discoveries in addition to utilization of modern molecular biology techniques have led to a series of hypotheses regarding which other types of molecules could be used in combination with BRAF-inhibitors in hopes of revolutionizing the potential of therapeutics in melanoma.

BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESS MODELS: Drug Development for Rare and Neglected Diseases and Individualized Therapies
by Institute of Medicine of the National AcademiesThe process for developing new drug and biologic products is extraordinarily expensive and time-consuming. Although large pharmaceutical companies may be able to afford the cost of development because they can expect a large return on investment, organizations developing drugs to treat rare and neglected diseases are unable to rely on such returns. On June 23, 2008, the Institute of Medicine's Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation held a public workshop, "Breakthrough Business Models: Drug Development for Rare and Neglected Diseases and Individualized Therapies," which sought to explore new and innovative strategies for developing drugs for rare and neglected diseases.
BRIDGING THE BED-BENCH GAP: Contributions of the Markey Trust
by Committee on the Evaluation of the Lucille P. Markey Charitable Trust Programs in Biomedical SciencesSince the 1970s there has been a serious gap between fundamental biological research and its clinical application. In response to this gap the Lucille P. Markey Charitable Trust instituted the General Organizational Grants program, which funded two types of awards to provide training that would bridge the bed-bench gap. These training awards fell into two categories: (1) those that provided significant opportunities for M.D.s to engage in basic research during and immediately following medical school and residency, and (2) those that provided significant clinical exposure for Ph.D.s while they were predoctoral or postdoctoral students. These grants were intended to close the widening gap between rapid advances in our understanding of the biological process and the translation of that knowledge into techniques for preventing diseases. This report examines the General Organizational Grant programs, identifies best practices, and provides observations for future philanthropic funders.
BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN PRACTICE AND RESEARCH: Forging Partnerships with Community-Based Drug and Alcohol Treatment
by Committee on Community-Based Drug TreatmentToday, most substance abuse treatment is administered by community-based organizations. If providers could readily incorporate the most recent advances in understanding the mechanisms of addiction and treatment, the treatment would be much more effective and efficient. The gap between research findings and everyday treatment practice represents an enormous missed opportunity at this exciting time in this field.Informed by real-life experiences in addiction treatment including workshops and site visits, Bridging the Gap Between Practice and Research examines why research remains remote from treatment and makes specific recommendations to community providers, federal and state agencies, and other decisionmakers. The book outlines concrete strategies for building and disseminating knowledge about addiction; for linking research, policy development, and everyday treatment implementation; and for helping drug treatment consumers become more informed advocates.In candid language, the committee discusses the policy barriers and the human attitudes--the stigma, suspicion, and skepticism--that often hinder progress in addiction treatment. The book identifies the obstacles to effective collaboration among the research, treatment, and policy sectors; evaluates models to address these barriers; and looks in detail at the issue from the perspective of the community-based provider and the researcher.

BUILDING A BETTER DELIVERY SYSTEM: A New Engineering/Health Care Partnership
by Proctor P. Reid W. Dale Compton Jerome H. Grossman Gary FanjiangIn a joint effort between the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine, this books attempts to bridge the knowledge/awareness divide separating health care professionals from their potential partners in systems engineering and related disciplines. The goal of this partnership is to transform the U.S. health care sector from an underperforming conglomerate of independent entities (individual practitioners, small group practices, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, community health centers et. al.) into a high performance #quote#system#quote# in which every participating unit recognizes its dependence and influence on every other unit. By providing both a framework and action plan for a systems approach to health care delivery based on a partnership between engineers and health care professionals, Building a Better Delivery System describes opportunities and challenges to harness the power of systems-engineering tools, information technologies and complementary knowledge in social sciences, cognitive sciences and business/management to advance the U.S. health care system.
