Fabrication Of Nanofiber Scaffolds With Gradations In Fiber Organization And Their Potential Applications, Jingwei Xie, Bing Ma, Praveesuda Michael, Franklin Shuler
Fabrication Of Nanofiber Scaffolds With Gradations In Fiber Organization And Their Potential Applications, Jingwei Xie, Bing Ma, Praveesuda Michael, Franklin Shuler
Praveesuda Lorwattanapongsa Michael
A new and simple method for fabrication of nanofiber scaffolds with gradations in fiber organization is reported. The nanofiber organization, achieved by deposition of random fibers on the uniaxially-aligned nanofiber mat in a gradient manner, directed morphological changes of applied adipose-derived stem cells. These morphological changes and resultant biochemical changes can help mimic the structural orientation of complex biomechanical structures like the collagen fiber structure at the tendon-to-bone insertion site. In addition, chemical gradients can be established through nanoencapsulation in this novel scaffold allowing for enhanced biomedical applications.

Chbe 9230 - Community-Based Public Health Program Planning And Evaluation, Moya L. Alfonso
Chbe 9230 - Community-Based Public Health Program Planning And Evaluation, Moya L. Alfonso
Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health Syllabi
This course introduces students to the theory and application of community-based program planning and evaluation. Concepts in community assessment, organization, and mobilization for the purposes of addressing identified public health concerns will serve as the foundation for the public health planning process. Appropriate techniques of partnership building, planning strategies, data collection, data analysis, and evidence-based decision-making will also be introduced.
The Role Of Leadership In Creating A Strategic Climate For Evidence-Based Practice Implementation And Sustainment In Systems And Organizations, Gregory Aarons, Mark Ehrhart, Lauren Farahnak, Marisa Sklar
The Role Of Leadership In Creating A Strategic Climate For Evidence-Based Practice Implementation And Sustainment In Systems And Organizations, Gregory Aarons, Mark Ehrhart, Lauren Farahnak, Marisa Sklar
G A Aarons
There is a growing impetus to effectively implement evidence-based practices (EBPs) in health and allied health settings in order to improve the public health impact of such practices. To support implementation and sustainment of EBPs, it is important to consider that health care is delivered within the outer context of public health systems and the inner context of health care organizations and work groups (3). This article identifies two relevant types of leadership for implementation and recommends steps that leaders can take in developing a strategic climate for EBP implementation and sustainment within the outer and inner contexts of health …
