Sommario/riassunto

"Universities all over the world are increasingly recognising the challenges of globalization and the pressures towards internationalization. This collection draws together a wealth of international experience to explore the emerging patterns of strategy and practice in internationalizing Higher Education. Questions considered include: * How is the concept of globalization in the context of higher education understood by those who lead universities across the world? * What new challenges are being created as universities seek to become more international? * Which forms of leadership are needed and will be needed in the future in these transforming institutions and how are they going about preparing for and achieving this?."-- Provided by publisher.

Best practices for conducting effective and safe clinical trials Clinical trials are arguably the most important steps in proving drug effectiveness and safety for public use. They require intensive planning and organization and involve a wide range of disciplines: data management, biostatistics, pharmacology, toxicology, modeling and simulation, regulatory monitoring, ethics, and particular issues for given disease areas. Clinical Trials Handbook provides a comprehensive and thorough reference on the basics and practices of clinical trials. With contributions from a range of
