Global public health security and justice for vaccines and therapeutics in the COVID-19 pandemic Hotez, Peter J.; et. al. (2021-09-01) A Lancet Commission for COVID-19 task force is shaping recommendations to achieve vaccine and therapeu-tics access, justice, and equity. This includes ensuring safety and effectiveness harmonized through robust sys-tems of global pharmacovigilance and surveillance. Global production requires expanding support for development, manufacture, testing, and distribution of vaccines and therapeutics to low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Global intellectual property rules must not stand in the way of research...
Lives over profits: An analysis of impact of the transnational coalition's equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines campaign Bayraktar Ozan, Elif; Bahçecik, Şerif Onur; Department of International Relations (2022-12) This thesis analyzes the impact of the equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines of the transnational coalition, the People’s Vaccine Alliance. The thesis will specifically look into the campaigns of Human Rights Watch and Oxfam as major INGOs who are members of the People’s Vaccine Alliance. The impact will be discussed in terms of framing and agenda-setting, change in discursive positions, change in policy, change in institutional procedures and change in behavior of different actors; such as states and pharm...

Incorporation of personal Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) data into a national level electronic health record for disease risk assessment, part 2: The incorporation of SNP into the national health information system of Turkey Beyan, Timur; Aydın Son, Yeşim (2014-08-01) ©Timur Beyan, Yeşim Aydin Son.Background: A personalized medicine approach provides opportunities for predictive and preventive medicine. Using genomic, clinical, environmental, and behavioral data, the tracking and management of individual wellness is possible. A prolific way to carry this personalized approach into routine practices can be accomplished by integrating clinical interpretations of genomic variations into electronic medical record (EMR)s/electronic health record (EHR)s systems. Today, various...
New Mechanistic Philosophy and the Scientific Prospects of Code Biology Davoody Benı, Majıd (2019-08-01) Marcello Barbieri has presented code biology as an alternative to the Peircean approach to biosemiotics. Some critics questioned the viability of code biology on grounds that Barbieri's conception of science is limited. It has been argued that code biology's mechanistic tendency is the cause of the allegedly limited conception of science. In this paper, I evaluate the scientific viability of the code model from the perspective of scientific realism in the philosophy of science. To be more precise, I draw on...
