The document discusses how a 2-minute film opening represents various social groups. It primarily represents young, independent white males aged 18-25 through the protagonist. Scenes like the protagonist alone on a pathway make him seem strong and purposeful. This could relate to the male audience's own experiences feeling isolated. Costumes resemble modern styles to reflect the present setting. Both main characters, the protagonist and a mugger, represent desperate males through their actions and clothing. The target audience is represented through masculine behaviors and styles shown by the young male characters, who some in the target audience may wish to emulate.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

1. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Social group definition - People who share some social relation
Who is the main social group within my 2 minute opening?
Firstly my film is aimed at an audience both male and female, aged 18+, however
this isn't to say that younger people won't enjoy it. But I have managed to represent
a social grouping of young independent white males prominently within my film.
The use of Mise-en-scene in my film opening aided my way of representing social
groupings. The first shot is of a wide shot where my hero is looking out onto an
empty pathway, thus making him appear strong and purposeful, due to the fact all
of him is in the shot. This is a lot like the film ‘Watchman’ with the character
Rorschach as he equally has the same normal everyday man look much like my
character. This then can be relatable to the male audience as they feel they can see
themselves or remember times where they too have been isolated or alone. It then
cuts to a close up of his feet walking which suggests a semantic field of hunters,
this is because of his combat boots, his gun and although the purpose isn’t
necessarily to hunt but to find supplies. This is like the film ‘I am Legend’ as Will
Smith is on the hunt for food. This could make the audience reflect on when they
once have been in a situation where they have become so desperate they do
anything they can to aid themselves. As my character is meant to be of an older age
(20-25) I wanted him to look independent therefore I had him on his own
throughout his monologue.
When representingpower I used lower cameraangles such as low angle shots to make the
character appear bigger and stronger. For example when the mugger attacks the hero I go
to a low angle of the mugger being over the top of my hero as at the moment in the film
he is the dominant one. I believe a character like the Mugger can be social relatable to the
audience, female as well as mainly male. This is because as he only has a stereotypical
normal boys top onit can represent atime where the audience has had very little to help
them through hard times. Also the fact that the Mugger doesn’t have any family could
also communicate to a societywhere people don’t have anyone. However in order to
2. show his power at that time most of my shots before hand are centredso people are more
able to identifywho is more dominant and when. I also show my hero being the weaker
when I use a mid-shot lookingdown on Gideon(Max the hero) which makes him seem
the weaker comparedto will (the Mugger).
This is ironic as Gideonhas a power which can overrule the mugger and kill him,
thereforetheoreticallytheypower lies with the hero. I do however wish I had shown my
hero as being stronger via using mise-en-scene. For example insteadof keeping it central
I wish I did a shot where the camerais lookingup at the hero from the Muggers
perspective, and I wish I had used a low angled shot behind the Hero when his is using
his telekinesis power. As there is violence involved already within the 2 minute opening I
chose to already have an older target audience. I also think it’s more important to have an
older audience as the content of the monologue couldbe confusingand hard to
understand for younger people. For example “I witnessedthe true brutality of the human
race, trying to claim me for their own.”
Fashion is a cyclic nature and thereforeas the film is set in the present and so is the
2 minute opening and the rest of the film will be in the past the costume wouldn't
be different from today’s styles. Because it’s acouple of days or maybe weeks into the
past then the clothing wouldn't have changed this is due to the current problems
in the film. It’s similar to today’s fashionas the boys are both wearing black trousers and
a normal plain white top. Stereotypically this is what a male would wear normally. Both
sets of characters withinmy film opening represent particular social groups suchas
confident or desperate males. This could be relatable to women as theycould have also
been in a situationa lot like my characters are in. However as the characters are males it’s
more approachable to them. My Target audience couldrealte to getting into trouble much
like my Mugger has done.
My target audience is representedthroughthe use of young males as this is shown
through their clothing and actionwhich are much more mature as in masculine. Whereas
a younger age below 18 years oldwould not understand much of the concept to the film,
and would enjoya more simplyjust actionfilm like Transformers. Many of my target
audience may also want to be like some of the characters inmy film however wouldn’t be
able to become these charactersor even be able to obtain their lifestyles due to it being
dangerous and tough.
