This document discusses informed consent forms and processes. It covers key elements that should be included in informed consent forms such as study description, risks, benefits, confidentiality, compensation, voluntary participation, and contact information. It also describes the informed consent process as an ongoing communication between researcher and participant that begins before the study and continues throughout. Documentation of the informed consent process is important. The document also discusses translating informed consent forms into local languages understood by participants and having them back translated to ensure accuracy.
Before the enrollment of a patient in a clinical trial and beginning of any trial-related procedures, an informed consent is obtained from the potential participants. This informed consent form (ICF) provides the participants with the information related to the clinical trial. TSDP provides regulatory medical writing training on preparation of ICF.

Patient safety has always been the industry’s focus during clinical trials. However, a recent spate of well-publicized patient safety issues have increased public scrutiny and the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and CRO industries' desire to improve study quality, resulting in larger, longer, more expensive trials. In this Q&A, James T. Gourzis, M.D., Ph.D., discusses issues affecting patient safety, including factors that have launched safety to the forefront; what to look for in evaluating CRO excellence; unique oncology considerations and the ramifications of the rare toxicity; optimizing the Data Monitoring Committee; budget decisions that affect patient safety and the evolution/future of FDA requirements.

inform consent form before participate in clinical trials.for purpose of understanding the nature of research,risk,benefits,and decision about participation
In this presentation it has been tried to give a glimpse of different type of consent, how it should be taken, how the patient to be explained, when consent is must and conditions where consent is not required, so as to guide you in your every day practice.
A project with the aim to standardize an RBM approach in clinical trials. It unites four companies and academic organizations, focuses on the evaluation and optimization of Risk-based Monitoring (RbM). For this purpose, PUEKS will use data available from past clinical studies to select substantiated key risk indicators (KRIs). Subsequently, the obtained data-driven KRIs will be tested in an ongoing trial. A comparative evaluation with historical data from past studies will be additionally performed to evaluate the power of the selected KRIs in terms of cost savings, enhanced quality, and risk mitigation. The project is aimed at delivering a robust RbM tool as well as an optimized procedure for the successful implementation of RbM.
This project (HA project no. 448/14-38) is funded in the framework of Hessen ModellProjekte, financed with funds of LOEWE – Landes-Offensive zur Entwicklung Wissenschaftlich-ökonomischer Exzellenz, Förderlinie 3: KMU-Verbundvorhaben (State Offensive for the Development of Scientific and Economic Excellence).

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

21. Case Study
An investigator had administered consent ( a Tamil
Translation of ICF use) to a Tamil patient, even though the
investigator could not speak Tamil himself. He justified his
actions stating that the patient had come with his brother who
could speak both Tamil as well as English.
Is this be acceptable ?
22. Case Study - Answer
This is acceptable. However, it is definitely
recommended that a translator (could be a member of
study team who speaks both languages) should be
present during the process of obtaining consent. This
aspect should be taken care of before the beginning of
the trial. As per ICH –GCP section 4.8 the investigator
should ensure that the trial subject fully understands the
study.
