Innovation Studies Utrecht (ISU) Working Paper Series Evaluating CO2 reduction policy portfolios in the automotive sector Evaluating CO 2 reduction policy portfolios in the automotive sector

Abstract This paper presents an agent-based model that simulates the market for passenger cars in which firm strategies, market structure, consumer choices and policy instruments co-evolve. The main contribution of the paper is to show that this type of simulation model can be used to explore interactions and additional effects when different policy measures are combined to reduce CO 2 emissions. We show the impact of policy portfolios on economic and technological decisions of firms, on consumer choice and on global CO 2 emissions. In particular, we show how the dynamics of the system can lead to a technological lock-in into internal combustion technologies and demonstrate the ways in which policy instruments can help to break this lock-in. We show that policy portfolios can be relevant to achieve the best of different stand-alone policy measures, but not necessarily. Ex ante evaluation is therefore recommended

Oral feeding of patient hospitalized for allogeneic stem cells transplantation: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) [Alimentation orale du patient hospitalisé pour une allogreffe de cellules souches hématopoïétiques : recommandations de la Société Francophone de Greffe de Mœlle et de Thérapie Cellulaire (SFGM-TC)]

peer reviewedGiven the absence of consensus on oral feeding of patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation, the ninth workshops of practice harmonization of the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) allocated one session to address this topic, especially during the hospitalization. A questionnaire was sent to all SFGM-TC pediatric and adult centers in order to investigate oral feeding practices. The results demonstrated a large disparity among centers regarding oral feeding. Here, we report our recommendations regarding the oral feeding after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in terms of quality, quantity and bacterial authorized load. © 201
