Organizational Culture and Knowledge Exchange and Combination: A Systematic Literature Review

Knowledge exchange and combination build the core of innovative activity. Organizational culture plays a critical role with regards to knowledge exchange and combination because it affects organization members’ behaviors. Thus, his study aims at analyzing the influence of organizational culture on knowledge exchange and combination. Based on a systematic literature review, this study takes stock of the landscape of research on organizational culture related to knowledge exchange and combination. 504 journals and 5 conference proceedings were examined. 24 articles were identified as relevant and were reviewed. We found that organizational culture is a strong predictor for successful knowledge exchange and combination. The analysis further revealed four cultural factors that were mentioned most frequently as being supportive of knowledge exchange and combination. Our literature review points out the lack of research on how to develop, change, and sustainably establish an organizational culture that exhibits the corresponding supportive factors

The Influence of Risk-Taking on Knowledge Exchange and Combination

Knowledge exchange and combination build the core of innovative activity. However, the processes of knowledge exchange and combination are inherently associated with risk. Consequently, for knowledge exchange and combination to occur in an organizational setting, the organization members must be encouraged towards risk-taking. Organizational cultural norms promote a certain behavior among organization members. Accordingly, this study focuses on risk-taking an organizational cultural norm and investigates risktaking’s influence on knowledge exchange and combination

A l'échelle mondiale le 5ème des espèces de plantes vasculaires est ou a été utilisé comme plante médicinale ou aromatique

Es ist allgemein bekannt, dass Pflanzen früher weltweit die wichtigste Heilmittel-Quelle waren und es in Entwicklungsländern heute noch sind. Jedoch gibt es bisher nur für relativ wenige Länder eine komplette Liste der Medizin- und Aroma-Pflanzen (MAP). Eine Auswertung aller den Autoren bekannten Listen erbrachte folgende Resultate:Insgesamt werden oder wurden 20,7 % der in den ausgewerteten Arbeiten enthaltenen Arten als MAP genutzt. Bezüglich der einzelnen Länder bestehen jedoch große Unterschiede: Führend hinsichtlich des Anteils genutzter Arten sind China (36,2 %), Burkina Faso (35,2 %) und die Republik Korea (34,5 %). Weit vorne liegen auch der Norden Benins (32,8 %) sowie Pakistan (30,3 %), noch über dem Durchschnitt rangieren Großbritannien (26.7 %) und Nepal (23.3 %), während die Prozentzahlen von Bulgarien (21,0 %), Deutschland (20,2 %) und Frankreich (19,4 %) ungefähr der Durchschnitt repräsentieren; Jordanien (17,3 %), Vietnam (17,1 %), Sri Lanka (16,6 %), Indien (16,1 %) und Thailand (15,5 %) liegen knapp darunter. Klar unter-durchschnittlich sind die Zahlen für Ungarn (12,2 %) und die USA (11,8 %); die Philippinen (9,5 %) und Malaysia (7,7 %) liegen weit hinten.Im weltweiten Durchschnitt hat also jede fünfte Gefäßpflanzenart MAP-Eigenschaften. In Benin, Burkina Faso, Korea, Chi¬na und Pakistan trifft dies sogar für jede dritte Art zu, in Ungarn und USA dagegen nur für jede achte, auf den Philippinen und in Malaysia lediglich für jede zehnte bzw. dreizehnte. Diese auffälligen Unterschiede können verschiedene Ursachen haben. Sofort sichtbar ist eine geografische Komponente: dicht benachbarte Länder zeigen in der Mehrzahl der Fälle ähnliche Werte. Dagegen kann keine Beziehung zwischen der Gesamtzahl der Arten und dem Anteil der MAP konstatiert werden. Allen Ländern mit hohen MAP-Prozenten ist gemeinsam, dass sie entweder vollständig oder wenigstens in ihren ländlichen Bereichen zu den ärmsten Regionen der Welt gehören (Burkina Faso, Benin) oder bis vor wenigen Jahrzehnten gehörten (China), so dass es der Mehrzahl der Bevölkerung unmöglich war, "moderne" Arzneien zu kaufen. In diesen Ländern übertrifft oder übertraf bis vor kurzem die Zahl der traditionellen Heiler die der studierten Mediziner. Aus diesem Grunde hat die Volks-Medizin bis heute überlebt. Zusätzlich existiert in China, Korea und teilweise auch in Pakistan eine gute Dokumentation der Volksmedizin, weshalb auch in Gebieten, in denen heute die "moderne" Medizin Einzug gehalten hat, das Wissen um die traditionellen MAP nicht verloren gegangen ist. In benachbarten Ländern oder Regionen, die sich bezüglich der Aridität bzw. Humidität des Klimas unterscheiden, ist der Anteil der MAP in den ariden Gebieten höher. Die vielfältigen potentiellen Erklärungen für dieses Phänomen werden im vorliegenden Aufsatz diskutiert. Für mehrere Länder ist der in der Literatur zu findende Anteil an MAP zu niedrig. Aber selbst diese Werte bilden einen überzeugenden Beweis für die Wichtigkeit einer weltweiten Bewahrung der Biodiversität.It is common knowledge that plants have been the world-wide most important source of medicines and that they still play this role in developing countries. However, up to now, complete lists of medicinal and aromatic plants (MAP) exist for comparatively few countries. A review of all lists know to the authors reveals the following results: A total of 20.7 % of the plant species analyzed by either publications or own research are or were used as MAP. However, regarding single countries, the differences are considerably high. Absolutely leading the list are China (36.2 %), Burkina Faso (35.2 %) and the Korean Republic (34.5 %). Also ahead of other countries or regions are the North of Benin (32.8 %) and the entire Pakistan (30.3 %). Still above average rank Great Britain (26.7 %) and Nepal (23.3 %), while the figures for Bul¬garia (21.0 %), Germany (20.2 %) and France (19.4 %) almost represent the average. Jordan (17.3 %), Vietnam (17.1 %), Sri Lanka (16.6 %), India (16.1 %) and Thailand (15.5 %) rank slightly beneath. Clearly below the average are the percentages of MAP for Hungary (12.2 %) and the USA (11.8 %). The average numbers of MAP in the Philippines (9.5 %) and Malaysia (7.7 %) fall far behind. Calculated on a worldwide scale, every fifth plant can be regarded as MAP. This number matches that from Bulgaria, France and Germany. In northern Benin, Burkina Faso, Korea, China and Pakistan, however, every third plant is or was used as MAP, whereas in Hungary and the USA only every eighth plant can be regarded as MAP. This number drops even further for the Philippines ore Malaysia where only every tenth or thirteenth plant can be attributed to medicinal or aromatic use. These differences might be due to various factors. A geographical component of the results is obvious: in most cases geographically close countries show similar percentages. A correlation between the total number of species and the fraction of those used as MAP cannot be confirmed. The countries with percentage of MAP > 30 % in common show that they belong either entirely (Burkina Faso, Benin) or at least in their rural areas to the poorest countries of the world so that it is (was) impossible for the majority of the people to buy "modern" MAP. In those countries the number of traditional healers outnumbers largely the number of modern doctors. Therefore, the tradition of folk medicine was maintained until today. Additionally, China, Korea and partially Pakistan have a very old and well documented tradition of folk medicine. Due to this documentation even in areas where today "modern MAP" are used, the knowledge was not lost. In neighboring countries or regions, which differ with respect to a more arid or a more humid climate, for the arid country (region) more MAPs are reported than for the humid one. The potential reasons for this phenomenon are discussed in the paper. For many countries the percentage given for MAP in literature is too low. But even these low values represent a striking argument for the importance of a world-wide conservation of biodiversity.Il est bien connu que des plantes ont été la source la plus importante des médicaments dans le monde entier et qu'elles jouent encore ce rôle dans les pays en voie de développement. Cependant, jusqu'à présent, les listes complètes des plantes médicinales et aromatiques (PAM) n’existent relativement que pour peu de pays. Un examen de toutes les listes con¬nues des auteurs révèle les résultats suivants: Un total de 20,7% des espèces de plantes examinées soit à travers des publications ou de nos propres recherches sont ou ont été utilisés comme MAP. Toutefois, en considérant les pays individuellement, les différences sont considérablement im¬portantes. En tête de liste se trouvent incontestablement la Chine (36,2%), le Burkina Faso (35,2%) et la République de Corée (34,5%). Les autres pays ou régions qui se classent en tête sont le Nord-Bénin (32,8%) et le Pakistan (30,3%). Tou¬jours au dessus du classement moyen se trouvent la Grande-Bretagne (26,7%) et le Népal (23,3%), alors que la Bulgarie (21,0%), l’Allemagne (20,2%) et la France (19,4%) se retrouvent dans la catégorie moyenne. La Jordanie (17,3%), le Vietnam (17,1%), le Sri Lanka (16,6%), l'Inde (16,1%) et la Thaïlande (15,5%) se classent légèrement en dessous. La Hongrie (12,2%) et les Etats-Unis (11,8%) présentent des pourcentages moyens en PAM nettement en dessous de la moyenne. Les nombres moyens de MAP en Philippines (9,5%) et en Malaisie (7,7%) sont loin derrière. Les différences entre certains pays sont frappantes: calculé à l'échelle mondiale, chaque cinquième de plantes peut être considéré comme MAP. Ce nombre correspond à celui de la Bulgarie, de la France et de l'Allemagne. Cependant, dans le Bénin, le Burkina Faso, la Corée, la Chine et le Pakistan, chaque tiers (1/3) de plantes est ou a été utilisée comme PAM, alors dans la Hongrie et les États-Unis seulement chaque huitième (1/8) de plantes peut être considéré comme MAP. Ce nombre baisse davantage pour les Philippines ou la Malaisie, où seulement chaque dixième (1/10) ou treizième (1/13) de plantes peut être attribué à un usage médicinal ou aromatique. Ces différences pourraient être dues à divers facteurs comme: Le caractère géographique des résultats est évident: dans la plupart des cas, les pays géographiquement proches affichent des pourcentages similaires. Une corrélation entre le nombre total d'espèces et la fraction de celles utilisées comme MAP ne peut être confirmée. Les pays ayant en commun le pourcentage de MAP> 30% appartiennent soit entièrement (Burkina Faso, Bénin) ou au moins leurs zones rurales aux pays les plus pauvres du monde de sorte qu'il est (était) impossible pour la majorité de la population d'acheter les médicines "modernes". Dans ces pays, le nombre de tradipraticiens dépasse largement le nombre de médecins. Par conséquent, la tradition de la médecine folklorique a été maintenue jusqu'à nos jours. En outre, la Chine, la Corée et partiellement le Pakistan ont une tradition très ancienne et bien documentée de la médecine folklorique. Grâce à cette documentation, même dans les zones où aujourd'hui "les MAP modernes" sont utilisées, la connaissance n'est pas perdue.Dans les pays ou régions voisines, différant par rapport à l'aridité ou à l’humidité du climat, plus de MAPs sont signalées dans les pays arides (régions) contrairement à ceux humides. Les raisons possibles de ce phénomène sont discutées dans l'article. Pour de nombreux pays, le pourcentage donné des PAM dans la littérature est trop faible. Malgré tout, ces faibles valeurs indiquent clairement l'importance d'une conservation de la biodiversité à l'échelle mondiale

Comparative genomics of Dothideomycete fungi

Fungi are a diverse group of eukaryotic micro-organisms particularly suited for comparative genomics analyses. Fungi are important to industry, fundamental science and many of them are notorious pathogens of crops, thereby endangering global food supply. Dozens of fungi have been sequenced in the last decade and with the advances of the next generation sequencing, thousands of new genome sequences will become available in coming years. In this thesis I have used bioinformatics tools to study different biological and evolutionary processes in various genomes with a focus on the genomes of the Dothideomycetefungi Cladosporium fulvum, Dothistroma septosporumand Zymoseptoria tritici. Chapter 1introduces the scientific disciplines of mycology and bioinformatics from a historical perspective. It exemplifies a typical whole-genome sequence analysis of a fungal genome, and focusses in particular on structural gene annotation and detection of transposable elements. In addition it shortly reviews the microRNA pathway as known in animal and plants in the context of the putative existence of similar yet subtle different small RNA pathways in other branches of the eukaryotic tree of life. Chapter 2addresses the novel sequenced genomes of the closely related Dothideomyceteplant pathogenic fungi Cladosporium fulvumand Dothistroma septosporum. Remarkably, it revealed occurrence of a surprisingly high similarity at the protein level combined with striking differences at the DNA level, gene repertoire and gene expression. Most noticeably, the genome of C. fulvumappears to be at least twice as large, which is solely attributable to a much larger content in repetitive sequences. Chapter 3describes a novel alignment-based fungal gene prediction method (ABFGP) that is particularly suitable for plastic genomes like those of fungi. It shows excellent performance benchmarked on a dataset of 7,000 unigene-supported gene models from ten different fungi. Applicability of the method was shown by revisiting the annotations of C. fulvumand D. septosporumand of various other fungal genomes from the first-generation sequencing era. Thousands of gene models were revised in each of the gene catalogues, indeed revealing a correlation to the quality of the genome assembly, and to sequencing strategies used in the sequencing centres, highlighting different types of errors in different annotation pipelines. Chapter 4focusses on the unexpected high number of gene models that were identified by ABFGP that align nicely to informant genes, but only upon toleration of frame shifts and in-frame stop-codons. These discordances could represent sequence errors (SEs) and/or disruptive mutations (DMs) that caused these truncated and erroneous gene models. We revisited the same fungal gene catalogues as in chapter 3, confirmed SEs by resequencing and successively removed those, yielding a high-confidence and large dataset of nearly 1,000 pseudogenes caused by DMs. This dataset of fungal pseudogenes, containing genes listed as bona fide genes in current gene catalogues, does not correspond to various observations previously done on fungal pseudogenes. Moreover, the degree of pseudogenization showing up to a ten-fold variation for the lowest versus the highest affected species, is generally higher in species that reproduce asexually compared to those that in addition reproduce sexually. Chapter 5describes explorative genomics and comparative genomics analyses revealing the presence of introner-like elements (ILEs) in various Dothideomycetefungi including Zymoseptoria triticiin which they had not identified yet, although its genome sequence is already publicly available for several years. ILEs combine hallmark intron properties with the apparent capability of multiplying themselves as repetitive sequence. ILEs strongly associate with events of intron gain, thereby delivering in silico proof of their mobility. Phylogenetic analyses at the intra- and inter-species level showed that most ILEs are related and likely share common ancestry. Chapter 6provides additional evidence that ILE multiplication strongly dominates over other types of intron duplication in fungi. The observed high rate of ILE multiplication followed by rapid sequence degeneration led us to hypothesize that multiplication of ILEs has been the major cause and mechanism of intron gain in fungi, and we speculate that this could be generalized to all eukaryotes. Chapter 7describes a new strategy for miRNA hairpin prediction using statistical distributions of observed biological variation of properties (descriptors) of known miRNA hairpins. We show that the method outperforms miRNA prediction by previous, conventional methods that usually apply threshold filtering. Using this method, several novel candidate miRNAs were assigned in the genomes of Caenorhabditis elegansand two human viruses. Although this chapter is not applied on fungi, the study does provide a flexible method to find evidence for existence of a putative miRNA-like pathway in fungi. Chapter 8provides a general discussion on the advent of bioinformatics in mycological research and its implications. It highlights the necessity of a prioriplanning and integration of functional analysis and bioinformatics in order to achieve scientific excellence, and describes possible scenarios for the near future of fungal (comparative) genomics research. Moreover, it discusses the intrinsic error rate in large-scale, automatically inferred datasets and the implications of using and comparing those.</p

Brain ageing in schizophrenia: evidence from 26 international cohorts via the ENIGMA Schizophrenia consortium

Schizophrenia (SZ) is associated with an increased risk of life-long cognitive impairments, age-related chronic disease, and premature mortality. We investigated evidence for advanced brain ageing in adult SZ patients, and whether this was associated with clinical characteristics in a prospective meta-analytic study conducted by the ENIGMA Schizophrenia Working Group. The study included data from 26 cohorts worldwide, with a total of 2803 SZ patients (mean age 34.2 years; range 18-72 years; 67% male) and 2598 healthy controls (mean age 33.8 years, range 18-73 years, 55% male). Brain-predicted age was individually estimated using a model trained on independent data based on 68 measures of cortical thickness and surface area, 7 subcortical volumes, lateral ventricular volumes and total intracranial volume, all derived from T1-weighted brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Deviations from a healthy brain ageing trajectory were assessed by the difference between brain-predicted age and chronological age (brain-predicted age difference [brain-PAD]). On average, SZ patients showed a higher brain-PAD of +3.55 years (95% CI: 2.91, 4.19; I2 = 57.53%) compared to controls, after adjusting for age, sex and site (Cohen's d = 0.48). Among SZ patients, brain-PAD was not associated with specific clinical characteristics (age of onset, duration of illness, symptom severity, or antipsychotic use and dose). This large-scale collaborative study suggests advanced structural brain ageing in SZ. Longitudinal studies of SZ and a range of mental and somatic health outcomes will help to further evaluate the clinical implications of increased brain-PAD and its ability to be influenced by interventions

ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries

This review summarizes the last decade of work by the ENIGMA (Enhancing NeuroImaging Genetics through Meta Analysis) Consortium, a global alliance of over 1400 scientists across 43 countries, studying the human brain in health and disease. Building on large-scale genetic studies that discovered the first robustly replicated genetic loci associated with brain metrics, ENIGMA has diversified into over 50 working groups (WGs), pooling worldwide data and expertise to answer fundamental questions in neuroscience, psychiatry, neurology, and genetics. Most ENIGMA WGs focus on specific psychiatric and neurological conditions, other WGs study normal variation due to sex and gender differences, or development and aging; still other WGs develop methodological pipelines and tools to facilitate harmonized analyses of "big data" (i.e., genetic and epigenetic data, multimodal MRI, and electroencephalography data). These international efforts have yielded the largest neuroimaging studies to date in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorders, epilepsy, and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. More recent ENIGMA WGs have formed to study anxiety disorders, suicidal thoughts and behavior, sleep and insomnia, eating disorders, irritability, brain injury, antisocial personality and conduct disorder, and dissociative identity disorder. Here, we summarize the first decade of ENIGMA's activities and ongoing projects, and describe the successes and challenges encountered along the way. We highlight the advantages of collaborative large-scale coordinated data analyses for testing reproducibility and robustness of findings, offering the opportunity to identify brain systems involved in clinical syndromes across diverse samples and associated genetic, environmental, demographic, cognitive, and psychosocial factors

Pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at root s(NN)=5:02 and 8.16 TeV

The pseudorapidity distributions of charged hadrons in proton-lead collisions at nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energies root s(NN) = 5.02 and 8.16 TeV are presented. The measurements are based on data samples collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The number of primary charged hadrons produced in non-single-diffractive proton-lead collisions is determined in the pseudorapidity range vertical bar eta(lab)vertical bar vertical bar(vertical bar eta cm vertical bar) <0.5 are 17.1 +/- 0.01 (stat) +/- 0.59 (syst) and 20.10 +/- 0.01 (stat) +/- 0.5(syst) at root s(NN) = 5.02 and 8.16 TeV, respectively. The particle densities per participant nucleon are compared to similar measurements in proton-proton, proton-nucleus, and nucleus-nucleus collisions.Peer reviewe

Healthcare Engineering Defined: A White Paper

Engineering has been playing an important role in serving and advancing healthcare. The term "Healthcare Engineering" has been used by professional societies, universities, scientific authors, and the healthcare industry for decades. However, the definition of "Healthcare Engineering" remains ambiguous. The purpose of this position paper is to present a definition of Healthcare Engineering as an academic discipline, an area of research, a field of specialty, and a profession. Healthcare Engineering is defined in terms of what it is, who performs it, where it is performed, and how it is performed, including its purpose, scope, topics, synergy, education/training, contributions, and prospects
