Industry essentially seeks to use the combinatorial approach in order to accelerate the discovery of new materials and reduce time-to-market, and this is generally well accepted. The role of academia, however, remains a matter of debate. Some of the most frequently asked questions are ...

In this section, we discuss the role of numerical simulations in studying the response of materials and structures to large deformation or shock loading. The methods we consider here are based on solving discrete approximations to the continuum equations of mass, momentum, and energy balance. Such computational techniques have found widespread use for research and engineering applications in government, industry, and academia. 

The fall of 1983 also saw the North Atlantic Treaty Organization host an Advanced Studies Institute in Cosenza, Italy, entitled Chemometrics Mathematics and Statistics in Chemistry. One hundred scientists—a most unusual collection of chemists, engineers, and statisticians from academia, industry, and government—representing a dozen countries assembled to discuss the role of sophisticated multivariate statistics in the daily routine of an analytical chemistry laboratory. 

The role of the CRC is identical to that of European or American counterparts, or may be of more complex nature because of the complicated Japanese GCP and medical system. Many professional bodies, some backed up by regulatory body and academia, provide training courses for CRCs and recent statistics showed the number of trainee has exceeded 5000 and activities of... 

This report identifies technical hurdles and opportunities and discusses the role that government and academia can play in overcoming the nontechnical barriers to successful research, development, and transfer of these technologies to the ocean science community. Major conclusions and recommendations, discussed in detail at the end of this report, fall into two major categories, the role of the federal government and the role of academic scientists. Achievement of the recommendations will require cooperative activities between the federal government, industry, and academia (NRC, 1992).

Linally, the wartime demands laid the groundwork for America s role as a leader of the pharmaceutical industry worldwide. Indeed, it is quite possible that without the Civil War as a catalyst to pharmaceutical development (both in its manufacture and in its professionalization) that American pharmacy might well have languished in a comparatively primitive state for several more generations to come. The connections between pharmaceutical manufacturers and academia were largely twentieth-century phenomena, as was the active role of industry in research i3 however, the economies of... 

Since the 1980s, the specialty area of infectious diseases within pharmacy practice has evolved into a distinct discipline that is directed at providing optimum antimicrobial therapy to patients. The pharmacist is uniquely qualified to apply therapeutic, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic principles to antimicrobial therapy. These skills serve to complement rather than compete with the roles of infectious diseases physicians. Infectious diseases pharmacists are employed in private and teaching hospitals, clinics, academia, and industry. Literature that document the positive impact of the infectious diseases pharmacist on patient outcomes is now being published.
