FICHA TECNICA: PROPRIEDADE: EDIÇÃO: Direcção do CEC REDACÇÃO: João Augusto, Rui Erasto Ferreira e Rui Ribeiro CEC-Clube dos Entusiastas do Caminho-de-Ferro DISTRIBUIÇÃO: Sócios do CEC EDIÇÃO DIGITAL: João Augusto (Ficheiro em formato PDF) Os sócios do CEC interessados em receber o Sobre Carris digital deverão fazer o pedido para o correio electrónico [email protected]CONVOCATÓRIA Assembleia Geral Ordinária Nos termos do art.º 15, nº. 2, alínea a) dos Estatutos, convoco a Assembleia Geral do C.E.C. - Clube de Entusiastas do Caminho de Ferro, a reunir em primeira convocatória na sua sede, situada junto da estação C.F. de Braço de Prata, em Lisboa, no dia 21 de Março de 2020 (Sábado), pelas 15 horas e 30 minutos, com a seguinte Ordem de Trabalhos: 1. Apreciação, discussão e votação de: 1.1. Relatório de Atividades de 2019 1.2. Contas da Direção de 2019, com o parecer do Conselho Fiscal 1.3. Plano de Atividades para 2020 2. Outros assuntos de interesse geral Não estando presentes, em primeira chamada, o número suficiente de associados, a Assembleia Geral reunirá em segunda convocatória, no mesmo local, meia hora depois, com qualquer número de associados, nos termos do art.º 18 dos Estatutos. Braço de Prata, 20 de Fevereiro de 2020 O Presidente da Mesa da Assembleia Geral Jorge Trigo EFEMÉRIDES EM MARÇO 31 de Março de 1952 Um desabamento de terras provoca o descarrilamento de uma composição na Linha de Cascais entre Cruz Quebrada e Caxias, fazendo 52 mortos e cerca de 40 feridos. NOVIDADES NO SITE O site do CEC permanece um “sítio” onde muita informação das actividades do clube, e não só, é regularmente divulgada e actualizada. Desta vez chamamos a atenção para a área dedicada aos filmes em que o comboio está presente e faz parte da história. É uma lista de filmes, iniciada pelo sócio João Corte-Real, mas que é para actualizar com a ajuda de todos os que nos enviem links onde os filmes possam ser acedidos. João Augusto

Outline Where will we be going?
First, will suggest why “interdisciplinary” matters to me• Living in interesting times• Interdisciplinary thinking
Then,
p y g• T1-T2
Then, • Working together to solve a common problem
And finally, discuss two examples• Oxygen therapy• Asthma therapy• Asthma therapy

Living in “interesting times”g gOpinion: interdisciplinary work fosters creative thinking

creation through applied technology.
Interdisciplinary thinkingp y gJust think about those textbooks that are quickly obsolete
Interdisciplinary
Of, relating to, or involving two or more disciplines that are usually considered distinct.
Some (obvious) examples:
• Women’s health = Human biology + social issues• Medical imaging = Oncology + image reconstruction• Environmental Health = Environment + individual health scienceEnvironmental Health Environment individual health science• Translational research = Basic science + clinical research• Product manager = Marketing + engineering + supply chain

Is this “interdisciplinary”? p yI used to think just the “research” box was hard!
OK, so let’s expand the “research” box, pLiving life at the edge of T1

Feedback T2/T3

And one BME perspective p pVision of the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation
“The Translational Research Partner Institutions will work closely with the Foundation to promote, develop and realize the clinical potential of translational research.
Th lti t l f thi t hi i t fThe ultimate goal of this partnership is to focus on outcomes which will save, extend, and improve patient lives suffering from any disease or condition suffering from any disease or condition, in any size market, in any discipline, in any country around the world ” in any country around the world.
Working together to solve a common problemg g pNot just contributing “your” piece of the solution
Problem components:
• Objectives: desired outcomes• Controlled variables: courses of action• Controlled variables: courses of action• Uncontrolled variables: the environment• The relationship between these three (a measure of value)
Situation• Pulse delivery of O2 for COPD• Improves mobility and quality of life
Issue / problem
p y q y• Very profitable business
Issue / problemLack of standardized labeling for a bewildering array of (pulse) conserving devices created patient confusiondevices created patient confusion.
Desired outcomeCli i l t i l t t t i d i• Clinical trial to test various devices
• Standardize labeling• Publish results for the “greater good”

Oxygen therapyyg pySolving this particular problem
1. All “MBA’d up” and ready to build a team
2. First step, build the team. Lot’s of cold calls.Needed to build trust
3. Refine the problem.Lot’s of time needed to find the right questions
4. Perform the clinical trialDiscovered some things along the wayTime scale mismatchTime scale mismatch
5. Report the results

Asthma EducationIssue: invest in new product design or more education?
Situation• Prevalence of asthma• Improper use of inhalers
Issue / Problem
p p• Exacerbations leading to ER visit
Issue / ProblemWould better treatment result from improved education or better device design?design?
Desired outcomeU d t d th d ti• Understand asthma education
• Consensus on educational strategies• Hold a symposium for the “greater good”
(not a real patient)

Survival guidegSome “lessons learned” on interdisciplinary collaboration
A. The reason for reaching out may not be the same as the reason for
i ireceiving.
B. The primary path forward is ti dsometimes a secondary one.
C. The truth might be irrelevant – you have to be believed to be heard.
D. Everything I really needed to know I learned in the field.
