Abstract:
This article is based on various versions of a panel presented at multiple writing centre and writing studies conferences as well as conversations across partners. Our perspectives come from discussions between our four universities before, during, and after an initial global North/global South writing support partnership meeting in the summer of 2018. During that summer, four universities (two in southern Africa and two in North America) partnered to begin a collaborative project of capacity building in the areas of writing centres and writing support across all levels of these universities, offering writing support to undergraduate and graduate students as well as early-career researchers/faculty. In this article, we share some of our ongoing concerns and considerations for ensuring this partnership moves forward in a collaborative, egalitarian, decolonial way that avoids both Western colonial and neo-colonial approaches to capacity building and program development. Reflections in this article can perhaps inform others working in the field of writing centre scholarship wanting to build similar global collaborations.

Abstract:
Resilience as a concept has found its way into different disciplines to describe the ability of an individual or system to withstand and adapt to changes in its environment. In this paper, we provide an overview of the concept in different communities and extend it to the area of mechanical engineering. Furthermore, we present metrics to measure resilience in technical systems and illustrate them by applying them to load-carrying structures. By giving application examples from the Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 805, we show how the concept of resilience can be used to control uncertainty during different stages of product life.

Abstract:
Today, a wide variety of methods to deal with uncertainty in load-carrying system exists. Thereby, uncertainty may result from not or only partially determined process properties. The present article proposes a classification of methods to control uncertainty in load-carrying systems from different disciplines within mechanical engineering. Therefore, several methods were collected, analysed and systematically classified concerning their characteristic into the proposed classification. First, the classification differs between degrees of uncertainty according to the model of uncertainty developed in the Collaborative Research Centre CRC 805. Second, the classification differs between the aim of the respective method to descriptive methods, evaluative methods or methods to design a system considering uncertainty. The classification should allow choosing appropriate methods during product and process development and thus to control uncertainty in a systematic and holistic approach.

Abstract:
Aufeinanderfolgende Umform- und Zerspanungsprozesse stellen im industriellen Umfeld eine typische Wertschöpfungskette dar. Die Auswirkungen von Unsicherheit werden in solchen Prozessketten bislang nur in Einzelprozessen untersucht. Gegenstand der Untersuchungen im Sonderforschungsbereich 805 ist die Entwicklung einer verketteten, geregelten Prozesskette über die unterschiedlichen Bearbeitungsoperationen hinweg. In einem ersten Schritt wird im Rahmen dieses Aufsatzes die Verkettung eines Taumelprozesses mit einer nachfolgenden Reiboperation in einer Simulation untersucht. Die Geometrie der umgeformten Bauteile wird dazu mittels einer entwickelten Schnittstelle in ein passendes Format umgewandelt. Bei der Simulation der Reibbearbeitung wird der Einfluss der Schneidengeometrie sowie unterschiedlicher Bearbeitungsstrategien auf die Auslenkung des Werkzeuges untersucht.   Successive forming and machining processes represent a common industrial value chain. By now, the effect of uncertainty on these process chains has solely been examined with regard to single processes. The research subject of the Collaborative Research Centre 805 is the development of an interlinked closed-loop controlled process chain consisting of various processing operations. This paper presents the investigation results of an orbital forming process simulation succeeded by a reaming operation. An interface has been designed that converts the geometry of the formed part into a suitable format for the subsequent reaming process simulation. By means of the coupled simulation the influence of cutting edge geometry and machining strategies on tool deflection is examined.

The authors argue that the academic research centre can perform an invaluable function in coordinating the flow of information and knowledge between academic departments in a university and between the university and industry. To illustrate their argument, they offer a case analysis of the Center for Composite Materials at the University of Delaware and show that the Center not only opens up new sources of funding and collaborative research opportunities, but also enhances the skills of the students who collaborate in its programmes. They also describe new federal funding initiatives and point out that recent US government programmes are continuing to integrate research centres to solve real-world problems in close cooperation with industry.

Abstract. The development and validation of hydroecological land-surface models to simulate agricultural areas require extensive data on weather, soil properties, agricultural management, and vegetation states and fluxes. However, these comprehensive data are rarely available since measurement, quality control, documentation, and compilation of the different data types are costly in terms of time and money. Here, we present a comprehensive dataset, which was collected at four agricultural sites within the Rur catchment in western Germany in the framework of the Transregional Collaborative Research Centre 32 (TR32) “Patterns in Soil–Vegetation–Atmosphere Systems: Monitoring, Modeling and Data Assimilation”. Vegetation-related data comprise fresh and dry biomass (green and brown, predominantly per organ), plant height, green and brown leaf area index, phenological development state, nitrogen and carbon content (overall > 17 000 entries), and masses of harvest residues and regrowth of vegetation after harvest or before planting of the main crop (> 250 entries). Vegetation data including LAI were collected in frequencies of 1 to 3 weeks in the years 2015 until 2017, mostly during overflights of the Sentinel 1 and Radarsat 2 satellites. In addition, fluxes of carbon, energy, and water (> 180 000 half-hourly records) measured using the eddy covariance technique are included. Three flux time series have simultaneous data from two different heights. Data on agricultural management include sowing and harvest dates as well as information on cultivation, fertilization, and agrochemicals (27 management periods). The dataset also includes gap-filled weather data (> 200 000 hourly records) and soil parameters (particle size distributions, carbon and nitrogen content; > 800 records). These data can also be useful for development and validation of remote-sensing products. The dataset is hosted at the TR32 database (https://www.tr32db.uni-koeln.de/data.php?dataID=1889, last access: 29 September 2020) and has the DOI https://doi.org/10.5880/TR32DB.39 (Reichenau et al., 2020).

Abstract:
Purpose – Research data management (RDM) comprises all processes, which ensure that research data are well-organized, documented, stored, backed up, accessible, and reusable. RDM systems form the technical framework. The purpose of this paper is to present the design and implementation of a RDM system for an interdisciplinary, collaborative, long-term research project with focus on Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere data. Design/methodology/approach – The presented RDM system is based on a three-tier (client-server) architecture. This includes a file-based data storage, a database-based metadata storage, and a self-designed user-friendly web-interface. The system is designed in cooperation with the local computing centre, where it is also hosted. A self-designed interoperable, project-specific metadata schema ensures the accurate documentation of all data. Findings – A RDM system has to be designed and implemented according to requirements of the project participants. General challenges and problems of RDM should be considered. Thus, a close cooperation with the scientists obtains the acceptance and usage of the system. Originality/value – This paper provides evidence that the implementation of a RDM system in the provided and maintained infrastructure of a computing centre offers many advantages. Consequently, the designed system is independent of the project funding. In addition, access and re-use of all involved project data is ensured. A transferability of the presented approach to another interdisciplinary research project was already successful. Furthermore, the designed metadata schema can be expanded according to changing project requirements.

Abstract:
Newly developed technologies and methods for the purpose of controlling uncertainty in technical systems must be proven and validated against reliable experimental studies. The availability of descriptive metadata is mandatory to enable long term usability and sharing of such experimental research data. This article introduces a concept for a software independent solution for managing data in collaborative research environments. The proposed approach leverages the advantages of capturing metadata in a uniform, modular data structure and providing software independent access to a centralized data repository as well as its contents by means of a web-application. The article presents a prototype implementation of the proposed approach and discusses its application on the demonstrator test rig of a collaborative research centre in the field of mechanical engineering.

Abstract:
Collaboration is a feature of all stages in the development and implementation of long-term research sites, and has traditionally occurred through the medium of face-to-face meetings. However, the recent development of Groupware software products permits collaboration and knowledge management over the Internet. A range of World Wide Web-based systems currently in operational use at the Pacific Forestry Centre are reviewed in terms of their capacity for knowledge management and their ability to facilitate collaboration. The manner in which the systems integrate World Wide Web and database technologies is described. We present a description of a prototype knowledge management system to facilitate dynamic, web-based collaborative construction of concept graphs and relationships. These will help researchers reach consensus on concepts and assumptions, make differences explicit to facilitate experimental resolution, and elicit knowledge from researchers external to the project.

Abstract:
10053 Background: Rare cancers (RC) are a challenge in terms of quality of care, access to health resources and clinical research. The Italian Rare Cancer Network (RTR: “Rete Tumori Rari”) is a clinical collaborative effort to improve quality of care in adult rare solid cancers in Italy. RTR enables institutions to share clinical cases and to rationalize access to distant reference centers minimizing patient migration. It indirectly promotes collaborative clinical research by encouraging accrual into clinical trials and supporting observational studies. Methods: RTR includes 150 oncology institutions across Italy. Clinical cases are shared asynchronously over a secure Web resource. Data, images and transactions are stored in an online clinical record. Patients are shared: 1. "logically”, when they are dealt with following common clinical practice guidelines; 2. "virtually”, when they are discussed over the network between two or more centers; 3: "physically", when they are referred to an excellence center for a specific treatment modality. Pathology review is arranged through transferal of paraffin-embedded specimens and upload of consultations. While it was chosen not to implement telepathology facilities, a teleradiology resource is now available. Results: From 2003 to 2011, more than 5,000 rare cancers cases (mostly sarcomas) have been uploaded. More than 1,300 teleconsultations have been delivered, while more than 1,000 patients moved across the network during their experience of disease. 700 cases were reviewed pathologically: amongst 365 cases originally diagnosed as soft tissues sarcomas up to 2010, treatment-relevant discordances were recorded in more than one third. An observational prospective study on gastrointestinal stromal tumors was done, enrolling 800 patients. An original paper documenting the activity of a drug in a highly specific sarcoma subgroup was published. Conclusions: Clinical asynchronous online collaboration on RC is feasible through a Web-based secure environment and proved the most practical way of clinical distant sharing. Pathologic review was a crucial network service, with a special added value in RC. Retrospective and prospective observational studies, and unplanned observations in very rare cases, were an interesting by-product.

Abstract:
This paper describes the value of collaboration from two perspectives. The first perspective highlights the benefit of teaching communication partners collaborative communication strategies to facilitate the interactions of people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Collaborative strategies encompass the provision of collaborative intent, emotional and cognitive support, positive questioning styles and collaborative turn taking. Translating research outcomes into accessible resources is described with reference to the TBI Express website which has video demonstrations of conversation strategies for communication partners of people with TBI. The broader meaning of collaboration is also discussed, with particular focus on the advantages collaboration can provide in advancing rehabilitation outcomes for people with acquired brain injury, their families and social networks. Collaboration is described in terms of encompassing all relevant contributors to the development of research advances, including people with acquired brain injury, their families and social networks, stakeholders, clinicians, peak bodies, students and researchers. Two examples of large-scale research collaborations occurring within Australia are described, including the NHMRC Clinical Centre of Research Excellence in Aphasia Rehabilitation and the NHMRC Moving Ahead Centre for Research Excellence in Brain Recovery, also known as Moving Ahead.

Abstract:
This paper offers an overview of a recent practice-led doctoral enquiry which examined lighting techniques used by cinematographers and more widely amongst practitioners working with moving imagery. This research was completed in the Digital Cultures Research Centre at UWE Bristol and funded by the AHRC 3d3 Centre for Doctoral Training. The paper specifically reflects on three strands of enquiry which existed in dialogue with one another, showing how the mutual interaction and reinforcement between scholarly activity, collaborative film production and independent creative experimentation were fundamental to the approach and direction of the research. Amongst a wider contribution, this doctoral research can be seen as methodologically innovative, providing a more detailed first-hand investigation into lighting processes than is currently available by using autoethnographic methods to capture practical knowledge that is deployed in situ during moving image production. The paper discusses this novel use of autoethnography within practice-research and also explains how the resulting evidence was incorporated in the thesis through a layered approach to writing.

Abstract:
AbstractThe notion of Indigenous epistemologies and “ways of knowing” continues to be undervalued within various academic disciplines, particularly those who continue to draw upon “scientific” approaches that colonise Indigenous peoples today. This paper will examine the politics of contested knowledge from the perspective of three Indigenous researchers who work within Yunggorendi First Nations Centre for Higher Education and Research at Flinders University in South Australia. In particular, the authors outline a collective process that has emerged from conversations regarding their research projects and responding to what Ladson-Billings and Donnor (2008, p. 371) refer to as the “call”. In developing an Indigenous standpoint specific to their own disciplines and their research context, the authors demonstrate how these collective conversations between each other and their communities in which they work have informed their research practices and provided a common framework which underpins their research methodologies.

Abstract A two-day forum was held at the University of Tennessee (UT) Middle Tennessee Research and Education Center to foster collaborative efforts between Extension specialists and county or area agents across the southern United States. The forum was attended by 28 specialists and 18 county or regional agents from across the Southern Section of ASAS. The forum began with a tour of the UT Heifer Development Center. The forum was split into three sessions and included: 1. Transfer of knowledge (Demonstration research), 2. Developing formal education for Extension agents, and 3. Collaborating across state lines to develop Extension Programs. Within each section, a brief presentation was given, followed by break-out sessions to discuss success stories from each state and potential programs to implement. From the break-out session, areas of need identified primarily focused on the development of support resources for Extension agents. Needed outputs identified included a resource guide for conducting on-farm research and demonstration projects with county and regional Extension agents, defining a regional process to provide formal distance education for agents, and development of online coursework and training tools for agents for continuing education. Assessment data indicate that participants had completed an average of 8.4 (± 6.65, range 0.5 to 24) years of service. Agents were asked to rank their level of confidence, using a 5-point Likert scale, with three tasks. Averages (SEM) of that self-assessment are indicated in Table 1. The 2018 Southern Section Extension Forum was a successful effort to bring together collaborators to identify needs and propose programs to improve the impact of Extension.

Abstract:

 
 
 The diversity of learning needs within the TESOL field creates inherent tensions between the need for targeted professional learning for TESOL teachers, the more generalist nature of tertiary TESOL courses, and the varied research interests of teacher educators. This article describes a collaborative research project between university-based teacher educators and TESOL teachers working in an adult education centre. With a range of aims amongst the research participants, this article reports on the ‘fluid’ and ‘messy’ process of collaborative research (Burns & Edwards, 2014, p. 67) as we investigate the use of identity texts (Cummins & Early, 2011) as a mediating tool for professional learning. In acknowledging the practice of teaching as highly situated, the data presented focuses on the individual experience of each teacher, voiced through an action research frame, before we discuss the achievements and challenges which emerged through this collaborative research process. In the findings, we argue for the importance of championing the case for the messy processes of collaborative research within the broader research academy.

In the first study phase, we report on fidelity and acceptability of a non-pharmacological intervention, to resolve possible challenges to delivery.Objectives:To evaluate fidelity of delivery and acceptability of non-pharmacological components of a complex intervention.Methods:This was a mixed-methods study. Participants with chronic knee pain were recruited from the community to receive the intervention, delivered in 4-sessions over a 5-week period by a trained research nurse. The intervention consisted of holistic assessment, patient education and advice, aerobic and strengthening exercise and weight-loss advice if required. All sessions were video-recorded. Fidelity checklists were completed by the nurse (nurse-rated) and two researchers from the video-recordings (video-rated). Median fidelity scores (%) and interquartile ranges (IQR) were calculated for each component and each session. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants. These were audio recorded, transcribed and analysed following the framework approach.Results:18 participants (34% women), with a mean (SD) age and BMI of 68.7 (9.0) years and 31.2 (8.4) kg/m2, took part in the study. Of these, 14 completed all visits. In total, 62 intervention sessions were assessed for fidelity. Overall fidelity was rated high by both nurse-rated scores (97.7%) and video-rated scores (84.2%). The level of agreement between nurse-rated and video-recorded methods was 73.3% (CI 71.3, 75.3) and the inter-rater agreement was 65.5% (CI 60.3, 70.5). Fidelity of delivery was lower for advice on footwear modification and walking aids in all sessions and moderate for education in session 1 and for exercise in session 4 (Table 1).Table 1.Fidelity scores of the components of the intervention for each session,Intervention componentsSession 1*Session 2*Session 3*Session 4*Education78.1 (74.1, 93.7)87.5 (50, 100)87.5 (50, 100)100 (93.7, 100)Exercise94.4 (88.9, 100)88.9 (75, 94)86.1 (72, 100)75 (67.6, 82.8)Adjunctive treatments50 (45.83, 100)0 (0, 50)50 (0, 100)-*median (IQR)17 participants were interviewed.

However, too much information was provided in a short time-span and it was difficult to fit exercises into their daily routine.Conclusion:Delivery of a non-pharmacological intevention by a nurse is feasible within a research setting. Most components of the intervention were delivered as intended, except for advice about the use of adjunctive treatment.Acknowledgments:This research was funded by the NIHR Nottingham BRC and Pain Centre Versus ArthritisDisclosure of Interests:Polykarpos Angelos Nomikos: None declared, Amy Fuller: None declared, Michelle Hall: None declared, Bonnie Millar: None declared, Reuben Ogollah: None declared, Michael Doherty: None declared, Roshan Nair Speakers bureau: Financial support from pharmaceutical companies (Biogen and Novartis) to present lectures at events related to psychological support for people with multiple sclerosis (Speaker’s bureau)., David Walsh Grant/research support from: 2016: Investigator-led grant from Pfizer Ltd (ICRP) on Pain Phenotypes in RA; non-personal financial disclosure (payment to University)., Consultant of: DAW has undertaken paid consultancy to Pfizer Ltd, Eli Lilly and Company and GSK Consumer Healthcare., Paid instructor for: 2019: Consultancy to Love Productions; consultancy on programme design, contribution to programme content on self-management of chronic pain (payments to University)2019: Consultancy to AbbVie Ltd; 13.06.19; presentation on RA pain at EULAR, Madrid, and webinar (payments to University).2019: Consultancy to Eli Lilly and Company Ltd. 06.06.19 Centre for Collaborative Neuroscience, Windlesham, Surrey, UK (payment to University).2019: Consultancy to Pfizer (payment to University).2018: Consultancy to Pfizer. 07.12.18.

Abstract:
Abstract Significant strides have been made in the management of ALL and clinical outcomes have steadily improved over the last few decades. Many of these advances involve intensification of therapy, allogeneic SCT, improved molecular risk stratification and measurable residual disease (MRD) directed therapy. However in the developing world and low middle income countries (LMIC) there are significant challenges in implementing or access to such advances. Additionally, in the absence of large collaborative research groups in LMIC, as has been developed in most developed economies, it is difficult to get a handle of the magnitude of the problem and develop strategies to overcome them. The 'Hematological Cancer Consortium' is a collaborative group from India currently comprisingof twelve institutions spread across the country that have come together to collaborate in the field of leukemia. As an initial exercise to establish denominators a retrospective data analysis was undertaken (Indian acute leukemia research database [INwARD]). Here we present the retrospective analysis of the acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) data. Retrospective data from January 2013 to December 2017 was collected from 7 large tertiary centers from across the country. A central online data capture and management system was in place which was independent of all the participating centers (Clinical Data Management Center [CDMC], Vellore, which is compliant with standard ICH-GCP regulations). In this initial phase some centers contributed data offline to the data management center. A total of 1631 patients were confirmed to have had a diagnosis of ALL in this period of which it was noted that 1217 (75%) received definitive treatment (Fig 1 a). The majority of treated cases were B ALL (73%) followed by T ALL (23%), MPAL was diagnosed in 11 cases (0.9%) (Fig 1b). Of the 1217 patients that received treatment a karyotype report was available in 81.6% (Fig 1c), while FISH/PCR data was available in 703 (58%) of cases. The median age of the patients was 16 years (range: 1-76) and there were 70% males. The age distribution of patients by each decade is illustrated in Fig 1d. Of the diagnosed cases 879 (54%) were ≤ 18 years of age. Following initial induction therapy 80% of patients achieved complete hematological remission (CR) and there were 6.6% induction deaths. Only 37 (3%) received an allogeneic SCT in CR1. The 5 year KM estimate for overall and event free survival for the entire cohort of patients that received treatment was 80.4±2% and 57.1±3.8% respectively. This retrospective data gives a snapshot of the status of treatment of ALL in India and illustrates the challenges. A significant proportion of cases due to various constraints abandon therapy and a significant proportion of treated cases do not have conventional karyotyping or molecular tests done prior to start of therapy which would be considered a deviation from the standard of care in the developed world. This collaborative group has the potential to evaluate and understand these challenges in greater depth over subsequent prospective studies and develop strategies to overcome them.

Abstract:
This paper gives insights into research conducted within the Writing Centre Exchange Project (WCEP), a research collaboration among three university writing centres in Sweden, Germany and Ireland, which focuses on organisational perspectives on writing centre work. WCEP rests on the theoretical framework of institutional work. Previous research, conducted in US writing centres, developed a model of institutional work in writing centres that includes specific Strategic Action Fields (SAFs) and collaborative learning as a means to interact with stakeholders. By using this model, WCEP has targeted ongoing institutional work intended to establish and sustain missions, goals and activities in and around writing centres. Drawing on participatory action research, WCEP explores the extent to which the institutional work at the three European writing centres correlates with the model. The main findings show that indeed the same strategic action fields are relevant, but furthermore, different subcategories emerge depending on the local context. This paper explores some of the subcategories that differ and draws conclusions for the institutional work of writing centre directors.

Abstract:
This paper reports on a collaborative research project, conducted at the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy Centre, London, which investigated parental involvement (including therapist-parent interactions) in their children's music therapy. It observes a tension between therapists' dual concerns on the one hand to preserve confidentiality and on the other to inform and support parents in relation to their child's music therapy. It suggests a reformulation of confidentiality based on the development of relationships founded on trust and the supported exercise of informed judgement. The collaborative research process, although unusual in music therapy, is considered to have much to offer.

Abstract:
PurposeThe research purpose is to analyse when and how innovation support programmes (ISPs) can affect collaboration between universities and established small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs). The paper specifically considers SME’s absorptive capacity.Design/methodology/approachA Swedish research centre is studied in the context of innovation support and two of its SME-ISPs are examined with regards to industry–university collaboration and impact on firm innovation capabilities. Data collection and analysis are performed, using interviews, survey answers, document search and reflectional analysis to evaluate processes and effects of the centre and the programmes.FindingsA developed research centre, integrated into both academia and industry, can support translational collaboration and promote SME innovation absorptive capacity. The action learning elements and the organisational development approaches used when coaching in the ISPs contribute to the SMEs internal absorption capacity and collaborational skills. Organising collaboration into ISPs can provide a relational path to future collaboration with universities, which, for example start with student projects.Research limitations/implicationsThe study, though limited to one Swedish region, adds to empirical innovation research as it connects industry–university collaboration and absorptive capacity to organisational learning.Practical implicationsThe empirical results indicate possible long-term gains for industry and universities in building collaborative innovation into SME-ISPs.Originality/valueThe contribution of this study pertains to the practice of innovation support for established SMEs with the inclusion of absorption capacity and collaborative innovation development.

Abstract:
Background: The relationship between lag time and outcomes in retinoblastoma (RB) is unclear. In this study, we aimed to study the effect of lag time between onset of symptoms and diagnosis of retinoblastoma (RB) in countries based on their national-income and analyse its effect on the outcomes. Methods: We performed a prospective study of 692 patients from 11 RB centres in 10 countries from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2019. Results: The following factors were significantly different among different countries based on national-income level: age at diagnosis of RB (p = 0.001), distance from home to nearest primary healthcare centre (p = 0.03) and mean lag time between detection of first symptom to visit to RB treatment centre (p = 0.0007). After adjusting for country income, increased lag time between onset of symptoms and diagnosis of RB was associated with higher chances of an advanced tumour at presentation (p < 0.001), higher chances of high-risk histopathology features (p = 0.003), regional lymph node metastasis (p < 0.001), systemic metastasis (p < 0.001) and death (p < 0.001). Conclusions: There is a significant difference in the lag time between onset of signs and symptoms and referral to an RB treatment centre among countries based on national income resulting in significant differences in the presenting features and clinical outcomes.

Abstract:
This paper is about the interdisciplinary approach to the interior architecture studio education. The second year Interior Architecture and Environmental Design at the Faculty of Fine Arts and Design at the Izmir University of Economics, Izmir, Turkey, was given the task of designing a modular living unit for archaeology students. The brief expected the design of a living unit for students out of two- and three-dimensional modules. There were three aims of the project: first, the advantages of the process being interdisciplinary and collaborative working closely with the archaeology centre; second, the role of modularity introduced at the interior scale; and third, the structure of the semester enabling an understanding of the interior architecture process, delivered at the second year level. In the paper, the means by which the aims are fulfilled will be discussed with examples from students’ projects, and furthermore, directions for research are discussed with an emphasis on design thinking.

Ethical issues in international nursing research are identified and the perspectives of the International Centre for Nursing Ethics are offered in an effort to develop an international consensus of ethical behaviour in research. First, theoretical issues are reviewed, then initial conditions for ethical conduct are defined, and protocol design and procedure considerations are examined. A concerted effort is made to identify and avoid a western bias. Broad guiding principles for designing and reviewing research are offered: (1) respect for persons; (2) beneficence; (3) justice; (4) respect for community; and (5) contextual caring. A collaborative model of the researcher-participant relationship is suggested and discussed.

The objective of this research is to analyse the motivations and barriers to develop an innovative food product from the perspective of the two main participants in a development project. The perceptions of a Brazilian food co-operative and a Technological Centre were analysed throughout a case study. The results indicate the existence of a complex dyadic relationship between them and also that the food innovation network is still in its early stages in south of Brazil. The main motivation for the Technological Centre is to contribute to the national development policy. On the other hand, for the company there is the possibility to obtain partial funding for products development. The company is venturing while bringing to the food market an innovative product. Yet, it is clear that these kinds of inter-organizational collaborative efforts can bring benefits to food networks in general.

Abstract:
Background: The Canadian Neurosurgery Research Collaborative (CNRC) is a trainee-led multi-centre collaboration made up of representatives from 12 of 14 neurosurgical centres with residency programs. To demonstrate the potential of this collaborative network, we gathered administrative operative data from each centre in order to provide a snapshot of the operative landscape in Canadian neurosurgery. Methods: Residents from each training program provided adult neurosurgical operative data for the 2014 calendar year, including the number of surgeries in the subcategories cranial, spinal, and peripheral nerve. Because some residency programs have surgeries distributed among more than one hospital, we calculated mean case load per residency program and per hospital. Results: Interim results from 6 neurosurgery residency programs are presented (with data from other programs forthcoming). Overall, there were on average 2,352 operative cases per residency program (n=6) and 1,176 operative cases per adult hospital (n=12). Among 5 programs with more detailed operative data, the mean numbers of cranial, spinal, peripheral nerve, and miscellaneous surgeries per residency program were 757 (47%), 487 (30%), 47 (3%), and 319 (20%) respectively. Conclusions: We show as a proof-of-concept that a trainee-led nation-wide research collaborative can generate meaningful data in a Canadian context.
