The Sources of Quality in the Pharmaceutical Industry
This paper analyzes the sources of quality of a pharmaceutical product. After identifying eight quality dimensions, a framework of hypothetical sources that contribute the most to shape those dimensions is established. The framework, based on Garvin’s pioneering work, is applied to case studies of laboratories operating in Argentina. Framework relevance is considered using correlation analysis. Laboratories are ranked through expert opinion by the quality of its products using the eight dimensions mentioned above; it is observed that there is no perfect parallelism in ranking along all dimensions, possibly revealing different managerial priorities and uses of resources among laboratories, as well as different sources of quality and different business strategies. Correlation analysis also suggests that the study of a pharmaceutical product is a complex task when a modern concept of quality is considered. Once the existence of different quality dimensions is accepted, the following two questions are investigated: (1) Are there specific sources of quality that support some dimensions (and not others) and that are based on identifiable organizational aspects or specific technologies? (2) What are the generic sources of quality (affecting all dimensions) and in what way do they contribute to improve performance or highlight quality dimensions? It is assumed as a starting point that among the sources of quality there are generic sources, affecting all dimensions, and specific sources, which affect only some dimensions. In concrete cases, specific quality sources are identified, although the search for specific quality sources for each dimension is not conclusive. The study of generic quality sources, however, suggests that corporate systems, corporate culture, and management policies contribute to incorporate quality in a product. Thus quality results from the interaction between generic and specific sources. In the final part of the paper, recommendations for academics and industrialists are provided, as well as some conclusions.Pharmaceutical product, Garvin’s quality dimensions, quality sources, pharmaceutical laboratories in Argentina, corporate systems, corporate culture.
Marina Martín Garcia
Isla Martín Garcia is founded on a rock outcrop in the Río de la Plata which is a natural protected area between Argentina and Uruguay. Due to the extension of the runway at the local airport, wetlands between Isla Timoteo Domínguez and Isla Martín Garcia developed during the last decades. The bay, where the old port was located, was loaded with sediment. After the waters between the two islands sedimented, Isla Hércules is formed and a channel is created. For the location of the marina, three possible options are selected: at the pier, south of Isla Hércules and in the sedimented bay north of Isla Martín Garcia. By using a multi criteria analysis, a marina at the pier is chosen as the best option because of its small dredging area and minor environmental impact. In consultation with the consultative authorities, a marina at the bay is chosen as the elaborated alternative. The recovery of the old situation in which the marina is located in the bay is the main reason for this choice.Implementation of the marina at Isla Martín Garcia involves cooperation between two parties: the government and a second investor. The government is responsible for the island, and a certain amount of liquidity is required to boost tourism on the island. A second party, like a private investor, is introduced for the maintenance and exploration of the project. This cooperation needs to invest 22.9 million dollars; this includes the 16.4 million dollars for the government and 6.5 million dollars for the second party. Without involving an external investor the internal rate of return (IRR) is 1.77% which is very low. When involving a private investor the IRR increases, the external investor receives an IRR of 7.71 % over the entire lifetime of the marina.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
The next bibliometrics: ALMetrics (Author Level Metrics) and the multiple faces of author impact
The main goal of this article is to describe the purpose and content of a new branch of bibliometrics: ALMetrics (Author-Level Metrics). ALMetrics is focused on the quantitative analysis of an author's performance by measuring the dimensions of their intellectual activity as shown through varied metric indicators. This article will list, define, and classify the different metrics that are offered in newer information portals that showcase the scientific activity of authors. These metrics are grouped into five sets: bibliometrics (publication and citation), usage, participation, rating, social connectivity, and composite indicators. This new bibliometric specialty is necessary because of new trends in scientific assessment, which have moved analysis away from old bibliometrics (based on journal analysis and Impact Factor) towards new bibliometrics that analyze both documents and authors via a mix of indicators. Most importantly, ALMetrics responds to the researchers' desire for both knowledge and acknowledgement.Orduña Malea, E.; Martín-Martín, A.; Delgado-López-Cózar, E. (2016).

Debates epistemológicos y metodológicos en torno a la construcción de conocimiento en psicoanálisis
El proyecto propone una investigación teórico-crítica de corte bibliográfico sobre algunos problemas epistemológicos y metodológicos implicados en la construcción de conocimiento en psicoanálisis. Considerando la historia de los debates epistemológicos sobre la problemática identidad disciplinar del psicoanálisis y las discusiones contemporáneas sobre los procedimientos metodológicos inherentes a la producción de conocimiento en este campo disciplinar, el proyecto se enfoca en las controversias sobre: a) el papel de las tradiciones naturalistas y hermenéuticas en la elaboración de hipótesis psicoanalíticas; b) el rol desempeñado por la metodología de los denominados "estudios de casos" en la producción y contrastación de conjeturas psicoanalíticas; y c) el tipo de "modelos de explicación científica" con el que podemos elucidar la organización lógico-semántica de las teorías psicoanalíticas contemporáneas. Se espera que un abordaje integral de los aspectos delimitados acerque herramientas conceptuales interdisciplinares que posibiliten elucidar de una mejor manera la racionalidad de la producción de conocimiento en psicoanálisis y ampliar el horizonte de las disputas meta-teóricas que acontecen al interior de dicho campo disciplinar.The project proposal is a theoretical and critical investigation with a bibliographical focus on some of the epistemological and methodological problems implied in the construction of knowledge in psychoanalysis. Considering the history of the epistemological debates about the disciplinary identity dilemmas of psychoanalysis and the contemporary discussions about the inherent methodological procedures of the knowledge production in this disciplinary field, the project focuses on the following controversies: a) the part played by naturalistic and hermeneutical traditions in the psychoanalytic hypothesis elaboration; b) the methodological role of the so-called "case studies" in the production and contrasted psychoanalytic assumptions; and c) the "scientific explanation models" enlightening the logical-semantic organization of the contemporary psychoanalytical theories. A comprehensive approach of the aspects mentioned above is expected to provide interdisciplinary conceptual devices to allow a better understanding of the psychoanalysis rationality construction of knowledge and broaden meta-theoretical discussions within this discipline.Fil: Azcona, Maximiliano.
