National nephrectomy registries: Reviewing the need for population-based data
John Pearson,Timothy Williamson,Joseph Ischia,Damien M Bolton,Mark Frydenberg,Nathan Lawrentschuk 대한비뇨의학회 2015 Investigative and Clinical Urology Vol.56 No.9
Nephrectomy is the cornerstone therapy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and continued refinement of the procedure through research may enhance patient outcomes. A national nephrectomy registry may provide the key information needed to assess the procedure at a national level. The aim of this study was to review nephrectomy data available at a population-based level in Australia and to benchmark these data against data from the rest of the world as an examination of the national nephrectomy registry model. A PubMed search identified records pertaining to RCC nephrectomy in Australia. A similar search identified records relating to established nephrectomy registries internationally and other surgical registries of clinical importance. These records were reviewed to address the stated aims of this article. Population-based data within Australia for nephrectomy were lacking. Key issues identified were the difficulty in benchmarking outcomes and no ongoing monitoring of trends. The care centralization debate, which questions whether small-volume centers provide comparable outcomes to high-volume centers, is ongoing. Patterns of adherence and the effectiveness of existing protocols are uncertain. A review of established international registries demonstrated that the registry model can effectively address issues comparable to those identified in the Australian literature. A national nephrectomy registry could address deficiencies identified in a given nation's nephrectomy field. The model is supported by evidence from international examples and will provide the population-based data needed for studies. Scope exists for possible integration with other registries to develop a more encompassing urological or surgical registry. Need remains for further exploration of the feasibility and practicalities of initiating such a registry including a minimum data set, outcome indicators, and auditing of data.

Bacterial Hash Function Using DNA-Based XOR Logic Reveals Unexpected Behavior of the LuxR Promoter
Pearson, Brianna,Lau, Kin H.,Allen, Alicia,Barron, James,Cool, Robert,Davis, Kelly,DeLoache, Will,Feeney, Erin,Gordon, Andrew,Igo, John,Lewis, Aaron,Muscalino, Kristi,Parra, Madeline,Penumetcha, Palla Korean Society for Bioinformatics 2011 Interdisciplinary Bio Central (IBC) Vol.3 No.3
Introduction: Hash functions are computer algorithms that protect information and secure transactions. In response to the NIST's "International Call for Hash Function", we developed a biological hash function using the computing capabilities of bacteria. We designed a DNA-based XOR logic gate that allows bacterial colonies arranged in a series on an agar plate to perform hash function calculations. Results and Discussion: In order to provide each colony with adequate time to process inputs and perform XOR logic, we designed and successfully demonstrated a system for time-delayed bacterial growth. Our system is based on the diffusion of ${\ss}$-lactamase, resulting in destruction of ampicillin. Our DNA-based XOR logic gate design is based on the op-position of two promoters. Our results showed that $P_{lux}$ and $P_{OmpC}$ functioned as expected individually, but $P_{lux}$ did not behave as expected in the XOR construct. Our data showed that, contrary to literature reports, the $P_{lux}$ promoter is bidirectional. In the absence of the 3OC6 inducer, the LuxR activator can bind to the $P_{lux}$ promoter and induce backwards transcription. Conclusion and Prospects: Our system of time delayed bacterial growth allows for the successive processing of a bacterial hash function, and is expected to have utility in other synthetic biology applications. While testing our DNA-based XOR logic gate, we uncovered a novel function of $P_{lux}$. In the absence of autoinducer 3OC6, LuxR binds to $P_{lux}$ and activates backwards transcription. This result advances basic research and has important implications for the widespread use of the $P_{lux}$ promoter.

European Academic Harmonization and Accreditation and Their Effects on Publication
Michael Hartmann,John Pearson 사람과세계경영학회 2010 Global Business and Finance Review Vol.15 No.2
Over the past two decades, a number of forces have compelled European governments to reevaluate their disparate academic systems and to work toward common standards for academic degrees. European academic ministers have chosen to sacrifice some of their autonomy in order to establish academic credential transparency and mobility across Europe. Since two major types of academic business schools have developed in Europe, the American system and the German system, this article recaps the historical development of the two academic systems and documents the changes which have been published in a variety of conferences, joint declarations, and extensive reports. The effects of harmonization have begun to alter the structure of doctoral programs and research institutions across Europe and will impact programs across the globe. This paper examines the history of these academic changes and explores the future opportunities and challenges for the global academic setting.
