Abstract:

This project updated the California State University, San Bernardino's Office of Technology Transfer and Commercialization's Solicitation Management System (SMS) software, used to facilitate the processing of grant proposal solicitations. The SMS software update improved the interface so that it is more user-friendly, increased the processing speed, and added additional functions necessary to comply with new requirements. The software was rewritten using the Spring and Hibernate frameworks.

Abstract:

Institutional philanthropy (which includes the spectrum of all formalized grantmaking organizations) remains one of the least understood and researched aspects of giving. There is also limited scholarly attention to the relationship between foundation governance and grantmaking, despite normative claims about 'elite' foundation boards selecting 'elite' nonprofit's. Yet, foundations are increasingly using committees of community volunteers to allocate grants, rather than leaving grant decisions to a traditional board of directors. The goal of community involvement in grantmaking is better gran

Abstract:

The thesis presents a reformative criticism of science funding by peer review. The criticism is based on epistemological scepticism, regarding the ability of scientific peers, or any other agent, to have access to sufficient information regarding the potential of proposed projects at the time of funding. The scepticism is based on the complexity of factors contributing to the merit of scientific projects, and the rate at which the parameters of this complex system change their values. By constructing models of different science funding mechanisms, a construction supported by historical evidenc

Abstract:

Introduction The purpose of the thesis is to investigate the important role of clinical trial networks (CTNs), specifically the national cancer cooperative trial groups (CCTGs), have in growing high-quality memberships and optimising grant success to support the undertaking of a greater number of investigator-initiated, high-quality, Australian-led, skin cancer clinical trials. This is critically important in Australia which has the highest skin cancer burden globally. Methodology Experiences from CTNs with a particular focus on the skin CCTG have been evaluated. Two studies have been
