The Long ‐term Health Effects of Fetal Malnutrition: Evidence from the 1959–1961 China Great Leap Forward Famine
We report evidence of long‐term adverse health impacts of fetal malnutrition exposure of middle‐aged survivors of the 1959–1961 China Famine using data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. We find that fetal exposure to malnutrition has large and long‐lasting impacts on both physical health and cognitive abilities, including the risks of suffering a stroke, physical disabilities in speech, walking and vision, and measures of mental acuity even half a century after the tragic event. Our findings imply that policies and programs that improve the nutritional status of pregnant women yield benefits ...

The Importance of Talent and Chemistry in New Patient-First Business Models
Forward-thinking life sciences companies are shifting to new patient-centered business models, leaving the traditional volume-first approach behind. This move has tremendous implications, not only for patients but also for the current workforce and future talent: life sciences companies need to design new roles and rethink their talent strategies, including the ways they recruit, train, motivate and retain the best teams.The shift from volume to valueThe historical model in life sciences has been based on selling products, where more was better - more products, more market share and then more profits. Value-based reimburse...

Rationale and design of a randomized trial of automated hovering for post –myocardial infarction patients: The HeartStrong program
Conclusions Our randomized controlled trial of the HeartStrong program will provide an evaluation of a state-of-the-art behavioral economic intervention with a number of important pragmatic features. These include a tailored intervention responding to patient activity, streamlining of consent and implementation processes using new technologies, outcomes centrally important to patients, and the ability to implement rapid-cycle innovation.
