Investigation of the Effect of Molecular Weight, Density, and Initiator Structure Size on the Repulsive Force between a PNIPAM Polymer Brush and Protein by Getachew Tizazu

“…The plot indicated that the steric repulsive force becomes nearly zero for all degrees of polymerization and density when the value of the initiator structure size was less than 200 nm. In addition to the steric repulsive force, the lateral extension of the chains in the periodically patterned PNIPAM brush was calculated by scaling low and compared with the experimental data taken from previously published literatures. …”

Towards implementing new payment models for the reimbursement of high-cost, curative therapies in Europe: insights from semi-structured interviews by Thomas Desmet, Thomas Desmet, Sissel Michelsen, Sissel Michelsen, Elena Van den Brande, Walter Van Dyck, Steven Simoens, Isabelle Huys

“…Statements were allocated into six main topics: payment structure, spread payments, outcome-based agreements, governance, transparency, and regulation.ResultsInterviews revealed the necessary conditions that, fulfilled together, are seen to be sufficient for the successful implementation of OBSP, including consensus on pricing, payment logistics, robust data infrastructure and financing, clear agreement terms (duration, outcome parameters, payment triggers), long-term patient follow-up solutions, an external multi-stakeholder governance body, and transparency regarding agreement types.ConclusionDespite the interest, the effective implementation of OBSP falls behind due to a lack of consensus on how this new reimbursement method can be a sustainable solution. …”
