Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.

Download or read book A Special Report on Gene Therapy written by K. K. Jain and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2000-04-14 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special report on Gene Therapy Companies by K.K. Jain provides an up-to-date overview of the gene therapy industry. It contains a wealth of very practical information on 105 companies. For each company, information is available on the people to contact, their contact details, a corporate history, the company's technologies and products, financial data, patents held, products in clinical trials, collaborations with other companies and selected publications from the company's scientists. Almost 200 companies were initially considered for inclusion but just over 100 companies were finally selected as they fulfilled the necessary criteria to be classified as a 'Gene Therapy Company,', defined broadly to include cell therapy companies. Not all of the companies devote their activity exclusively to gene therapy but they have sufficient relevance to be included. As part of this project, new companies were discovered that have not been reported in other publications or on the internet. Dr. Jain has spared no effort to ensure that the information is up-to-date and accurate at the time of publishing. In most instances, the information was reviewed by the companies to correct any outdated information or to add any complementary or recent information. In addition to the detailed descriptions of each company, the data is also presented in summary tabular form so that at a glance the reader can identify collaborations within the gene therapy industry, or determine which companies are pursuing strategies involving viral, non-viral or other approaches to gene therapy, and which diseases are being targetted. Given that much of the gene therapy research and development is currently being carried out within the industrial sector, it is important for scientists, managers and investors to have the relevant information at their fingertips. This special report provides that information in one accurate, easy to consult and up-to-date source.

Download or read book Drug Diagnostics Co Development in Oncology written by Jan Trøst Jørgensen and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on 2014-11-07 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of combining drugs and diagnostics in oncology is not new. When the selective estrogen receptor modulator tamoxifen was developed in the 1970’s for the treatment of breast cancer a positive correlation between receptor status and treatment outcome was found. As a result of this research, it was suggested to use the estrogen-receptor assay as a diagnostic test for selection of patients for tamoxifen treatment. Despite this suggestion was put forward nearly 40 years ago the adaptation of the drug-diagnostic co-development model has been relatively slow and it is only within the last decade that it has gained more widespread acceptance. The parallel development of the monoclonal antibody trastuzumab (Herceptin®, Roche/Genentech) and the immunohistochemistry assay for HER2 protein overexpression (HercepTest™, Dako) seems to have served as an inspiration to a number of stakeholders such as pharma and diagnostic companies, regulatory agencies, and academia. In recent years we have seen an increasing number of oncology drug development projects that have taken advantage of the drug-diagnostic co-development model, as outline below. Most of the new targeted anti-cancer drugs that have been introduced in recent years, such as BRAF-, ALK-, EGFR- and HER2-inhibitors, are more or less all a product of the drugdiagnostic co-development model. These drugs have shown remarkable high response rates in selected groups of patients within cancer diseases with great unmet medical needs. This Research Topic on Drug-Diagnostic Co-Development in Oncology aims to provide you with an insight into some of the diverse activities that constitute this new research area.
