Clinical trials of pharmaceuticals have been running in Russia for more than ten years and while it is an attractive location for research, it remains a largely untapped resource as researchers look to expand patient recruitment outside the Western world. While academic sites like Moscow, St Petersburg and Novosibirsk have all gained experience in clinical trials, smaller hospitals in peripheral

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to analyse papers studying the link between supply chain integration (SCI) and performance, and to discuss reported empirical evidence relating to this fundamental question for logistics and supply chain management.

Design/methodology/approach
A systematic analysis of 38 papers published in nine important journals in logistics, su

Abstract in UndeterminedTo study the phenomenology of hypnotic virtuosos, theauthor employed a 2 (hypnosis vs. control) × 3 (quiescent, pedaling astationary bike, having a motor pedal the bike) within-subjects designwith quantitative and qualitative measures. In a “neutral hypnosis”context with the only suggestion being to go as deeply into hypnosisas possible, participants reported alterations in

This paper develops a framework for analysing the role of innovation policy in regional innovation system (RIS) development. It specifically focuses on the influence of policy on a set of enabling conditions for RIS that have not been taken fully into account in previous innovation policy studies. Drawing on relevant literature on innovation systems, such as innovation policy, triple helix and pol

Explicit expressions for the spectral properties of the bifurcation problem involving discontinuities for general elastic-plastic materials are presented. It then follows that the classical value of the critical hardening modulus derived by Rice (1976. Proc. 14th IUTAM Congr., Delft, The Netherlands, pp. 207–220, North Holland, Amsterdam.) is, in fact, the only possible one. Furthermore, from the

In recent years, the innovation process in biotechnology has become a subject of major interest to scholars from different disciplines. Despite an ever growing body of work, the nature of knowledge links and their particular geography remain a highly disputed issue. The purpose of this paper is to shed some light on this topic. We will develop a model of knowledge interactions distinguishing betwe

Steady flow and mixing in a model of an "arterialized" vein punctured by a cannula as occurs during hemodialysis has been investigated in vitro. The motivation is that a major cause of vascular access dysfunction is the development of venous stenoses. This phenomenon lacks physiological explanation. However, one may attribute this quick process to the chemical content of the dialyzed blood and its

The current study provides a social constructionist approach to crisis communication in the Chinese context. Crisis communication is viewed as a form of strategic communication, involving multiple stakeholders in situations that are dependent on context, space and time. This approach provides a much-needed path for investigating and understanding crisis communication practices in contemporary Chin
