Alternativas Éticas en Investigación
Advances in ethical alternatives to animal experimentation, such as in vitro models and the implementation of the “3R” principle, show a growing commitment to animal welfare, improving research quality, and protecting the environment. These practices offer more relevant results for humans while addressing ethical and scientific concerns. Integrating humane and effective methods like cell models, toxicogenomics, and computational models promotes more ethical, accurate, and sustainable research.
Evolución del mercado transdermal: fusiones, diversificación y oportunidades de negocios
Los parches transdermal, esos discretos aliados que adherimos a nuestra piel para liberar fármacos de forma controlada, han recorrido un largo camino desde su aparición en 1979. Si bien cuentan con múltiples ventajas, no han llegado al mercado de manera masiva debido a que la cantidad de desafíos que debe superar una molécula para poder ser administrada por esta via son significativas. Para poner en manifiesto esta participación minoritaria dentro de la oferta de medios para administrar drogas al cuerpo, podemos mencionar que en el periodo comprendido entre el 2015 y el 2022 fueron aprobados unos 7239 productos genéricos por parte de la FDA, entre los cuales, tan solo 84 del total fueron parches transdermales Esto representa tan solo el 1,2% de estos productos.
Fake Papers
In the 17th century, scientific work was disseminated through prestigious entities like academies or universities. Manuscripts were reviewed and published based on the institution members’ judgment. This method persisted until the 20th century when commercial publishers led to the emergence of Peer Review and the Journal Impact Factor (JIF). Open Access, which advocates for free access to scientific information, also became important. Despite facilitating scientific communication, these factors also led to problems like plagiarism and data fabrication.
El futuro de la publicación científica
La publicación científica enfrenta una evolución: desde revistas prestigiosas hasta gigantes comerciales. Surgen preocupaciones sobre barreras de acceso, costos crecientes y la aparición de editores predatorios. El futuro depende del acceso abierto y la digitalización, dando forma a un paisaje dinámico para el intercambio de conocimientos
