A method to enable the investigation of murine bronchial immune cells, their cytokines and mediators.
2007
Innovative therapies for severe lung diseases (such as allergic and chronic asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or any type of lung cancer) require a detailed understanding of the cellular and immune processes in the lung. This protocol details a method to obtain the immune cells of the bronchi as well as the cytokines and mediators produced by these cells for further investigation. The broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) is taken by injecting physiological solution through the tracheal tube into the murine airways and carefully regained by winding up the connected syringe. After centrifugation, the resulting BALF supernatant can be stored for detection of cytokines or other medi…
Gaining or losing PhDs: What are the effects on firms' linkages with universities?
2023
PhD graduates can help companies transfer knowledge from universities to firms. Scholars have analysed the determinants of PhD recruitment by firms and its effects on their innovation activities. However, little is known about what happens when a firm loses employees with PhDs. The aim of this paper is to compare the effects on the relationships of firms with universities when these firms lose PhDs versus when they hire PhDs to work in R&D. These effects may be symmetrical or non-symmetrical depending on the abilities of firms to retain the connections and knowledge acquired by hiring PhDs. We consider four types of relationships: collaboration with universities, universities as a source of…
Alcune osservazioni sugli Enti (pubblici) di ricerca: il loro ruolo e brevi cronache di una devastazione annunciata.
2011
Verranno presentate alcune considerazioni sul ruolo che gli Enti di ricerca dovrebbero (e potrebbero) svolgere nel complesso sistema dell’alta formazione e di quello che ad essa è connesso (dallo sviluppo produttivo al vivere civile). La motivazione di fondo, poi, delle considerazioni che seguono è che la ricerca scientifica può svolgere un ruolo cruciale in tutti questi aspetti in quanto essa è connessa in modo essenziale all’uso di un metodo critico che fa discendere le conclusioni cui essa arriva dalle argomentazioni addotte e non dall’autorità di qualcuno.
Et si la crise COVID-19 était une opportunité pour les centres de soin et de santé ? La résilience hospitalière à l’ère de télémédecine et de la télé…
2022
La pandémie de la COVID-19 a mis sous tension l’ensemble des secteurs d’activités. Les établissements de soin et de santé ont été extrêmement touchés et particulièrement en Alsace lors de la première vague. Les managers hospitaliers et les professionnels de santé en général ont dû s’adapter pour faire face à cette crise exceptionnelle et inédite. A notre connaissance, très peu de recherches ont étudié la résilience du point de vue des nouvelles pratiques et innovations digitales et ce particulièrement dans les établissements de soin et de santé alsaciens. Afin de comprendre si la crise COVID-19 était une opportunité pour les centres de soin et de santé alsaciens, nous avons mené des entreti…
The virtuous cycle of trust. Unveiling clues to successful innovation in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods industry
2022
PurposeThis paper aims to shed light on features of successful innovation and on the role played by downstream open innovation (OI) dynamics in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry. It also explores the reasons for the decline in the number of disruptive innovations in this industry in the European Union (EU).Design/methodology/approachThe authors interpret the data in a Kantar consumer panel dataset on disruptive innovations in Spain through an exploratory research including in-depth interviews with 19 managers in the industry.FindingsResults show that downstream open innovation in this industry is mostly limited to the executional stage in the process and highlight the crucial r…
Il contributo di Calonghi all'innovazione della scuola con la ricerca e la sperimentazione
2014
Calonghi ha messo a punto una metodologia di ricerca in educazione adeguata alle caratteristiche della scuola italiana. La sua attività scientifica copre un arco temporale di circa cinquanta anni.E' possibile enunciare i principi ispiratori dell'innovazione didattica ricavandoli dalla vasta produzione scientifica di Calonghi. Si discute sull'attualità della sua metodologia di ricerca nell'attuale contesto culturale.

Building an advocacy model to improve the dementia-capability of health plans in California
2021
Background Given the high and growing prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias, and the intensity of this population's care needs, it is imperative that healthcare systems increase their capacity to effectively serve people living with dementia (PLwD). The Dementia Cal MediConnect (Dementia CMC) project proposes an advocacy model that may foster dementia-capable systems change. Methods The Dementia CMC project was a 5-year partnership (2013-2018) between local Alzheimer's organizations and 10 managed care health plans (HPs) in California's duals demonstration. It used an advocacy model with the following steps: (1) Identify dementia-capable best practices to set as systems ch…
Capital social i xarxes relacionals en els processos de creació de conexement i innovació
2010
Fa aproximadament dues dècades, el concepte de capital social va ser integrat al debat i discurs sobre el desenvolupament, en termes d'un actiu de cooperació, reciprocitat i confiança, present en normes i valors, i en les relacions socials de certs grups. El concepte de capital social guarda relació amb la necessitat d'aprehendre en un sol concepte un conjunt de dimensions de la interacció col·lectiva, en les quals els individus s'han de situar a fi d'estructurar una interacció amb sentit i establir-se com a persones en la trama de normes i valors morals que constitueixen i construeixen la comunitat i la societat que es viu. Així, doncs, el capital social de forma implícita porta associada …
