Interview with Peter Goodwin
No full textProfessor Emeritus Peter A. Goodwin, M.D. talks with Matt Simek about his upbringing and education in South Africa, his move to the Pacific Northwest, his career in family medicine at OHSU, and his involvement with Oregon's Death with Dignity Act. Goodwins family relocated from London to Cape Town when he was a small boy and he recounts the reasons behind the move, his early experiences in Cape Town, and his decision to go into medicine. He talks about his six years on the University of Cape Town's Faculty of Medicine and his eighteen-month internship. After completion of his training, he joined a private practice in Queenstown, and he describes the types of cases and the level of care that was provided to the areas inhabitants. After the Sharpeville Massacre in 1960, Goodwin relocated with his family to the United States and, after an internship in Massachusetts, entered private practice in Camas, Washington. He talks about his practice there, his year training in family medicine with Hiram Curry at the Medical University of South Carolina, and his transition into the Department of Family Medicine at OHSU in 1976. A passionate advocate for physician aid-in-dying, Goodwin goes into great detail about his opinions, his experiences, and his role in the passage of Oregon's Death with Dignity Act

WHO-lead Report Urges Health Systems Priorities For Global Health Initiatives - 26 June 2009
No full textThe global health initiatives set up in the last decade to fight killer diseases like AIDS, TB and Malaria are not investing enough in efforts made locally in countries around the world to deliver health through effective health systems. That's the upshot of a report published in the Lancet led by the World Health Organization which criticizes the otherwise high-achieving programmes like the Global Fund, The President's Emergency Plan, and the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization. One of the authors, Peter Godfrey-Faussett, talked with Peter Goodwin after speaking at a symposium on this held to discuss the Lancet report at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine

Right Whale Bay, South Georgia (54°00.173’S, 37° 40.856’W); depth 18m; collected by C. Goodwin, J. Brown and S. Brown, 21 st November 2010. BELUM Mc 7633. Bird Sound Site 1, South Georgia (54°02.058’S, 38° 00.242’W); depth 18m; collected by C. Goodwin, S. Cartwright and P. Brickle, 22 nd November 2010. Etymology: Named for the former Head of the Department of Natural Sciences National Museums Northern Ireland, Dr Peter Crowther, who retired this year after many years of service to the museum; in recognition of his support of this work when in post. External morphology: In situ appearance: Thickly encrusting white sponge (up to 15mm thick) forming large patches (up to 20cm in diameter) on bedrock. Smooth surface bearing numerous large oscules (up to 1cm in diameter) (Fig. 19a). Preserved appearance: Thick crust with very hard texture. Choanosome brick red in Mc7612 but white in some specimens and patchily red in others. The ectosome is a white, easily detachable, smooth layer. Skeleton: Confused choanosomal skeleton with primary columns of 4–7 spicules joined by unispicular secondary lines. Some rounded meshes present (Fig. 19b). Detachable white ectosome formed of hexagonal meshes of oxea, each side composed of single bundle of oxea 2–3 spicules thick (Fig. 19c). Spicules: Measurements from Mc7579. Oxea: 266(299)321 by 11(17)20µm—occasional very thin (<1µm oxea) of a similar length are also present (Fig. 19d). Remarks: This species is assigned to Haliclona as it is a Chalindae with unispicular secondary lines (de Weerdt 2002). The presence of a specialised ectosomal skeleton with rounded meshes assigns it to the subgenus Haliclona (Soestella) (de Weerdt 2002). Two other species of Haliclona (Soestella) have been recorded from this region: H. auletta (Thiele, 1905) from Calbuco, Chile and H. chilensis (Thiele, 1905). However, these both possess much smaller oxeas (150 and 130–200µm respectively). The taxonomy of this genus is still confused so species from other sub-genera were considered. Although descriptions of other species from different genera in the family occurring in the region have been examined none can be found in which such a distinctive ectosomal skeleton is described.Published as part of Goodwin, Claire & Brickle, Paul, 2012, Sponge biodiversity of South Georgia island with descriptions of fifteen new species, pp. 1-48 in Zootaxa 3542 on pages 33-3
New Research Questions Statin ‘Benefit’ In People At Low Risk Of Heart Disease - 25 January 2011
No full textNEW DELHI - Although clinical studies have suggested that the cholesterol lowering drugs known as statins could benefit people who are not already ill with cardiovascular disease, this assumption may have been premature - according to the author of a new Cochrane systematic review of the effects of statins. Shah Ebrahim explains to Peter Goodwin how many of the drugs-industry sponsored trials showing statin benefits have shortcomings, and that the cautious advice is to reserve statin therapy for patients who already have heart disease and those at risk of having a heart attack since the side effects of very widespread use of these drugs among healthy low-risk people are not yet fully known
Economic vitality in a transition to sustainability
No full textThe good news is that many of the solutions to this extraordinary problem are within reach. Many of the solutions to global warming are not only feasible, they are economically and socially beneficial. While some claim that addressing global warming will have a negative impact on the economy, the most recent report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ("IPCC") asserts that there is substantial economic potential for the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions over the coming decade. In fact, there is a growing global market to address global warming, and the United States must act now or risk being left behind.Climate change, mitigation, resilience
