Preferred but not Required: Examining Research Data Management Roles in Health Science Librarian Positions

Examining Health Disparities Using Data Science.

2. The Data Librarian: introducing the Data Librarian

This paper provides some initial considerations into the design and function of the Data Librarian. The first part (Liscouski, J., 1997, Journal of Automatic Chemistry, 19, 193-197) described the need for the Librarian.

Preferred, but not objective temperature predicts working memory depletion.

The present study investigated the relationship between objective temperature and subjective temperature preferences in predicting performance in simple and complex cognitive tasks. We assessed the impact of room temperature (warm and cold) on the ability to "update" (and monitor) working memory (WM) representations in two groups of participants, who differed in their subjective temperature pre...

Advances in Health Science Research

The invention of thiazolidinediones, also referred to as glitazones, has been one of the greatest developments in the treatment of Type II diabetes over the last two decades. Although the efficacy of the glitazones is substantial, their use has been limited by adverse effects including edema, weight gain and cardiac issues. While still being used for a specific subset of diabetic patients, much...

Meeting global health challenges through operational research and management science.

This paper considers how operational research and management science can improve the design of health systems and the delivery of health care, particularly in low-resource settings. It identifies some gaps in the way operational research is typically used in global health and proposes steps to bridge them. It then outlines some analytical tools of operational research and management science and...
