locality development Suppose the quality of life in your community is declining. The major employer has packed up and moved to a place where labor and utilities are cheaper. Without steady paychecks, a lot of people in town don’t have the money to keep up their houses and yards, or to support charitable organizations. Many people have found other jobs, but have to commute long distances to get to them. In some of the worst situations, individuals and families have become homeless, and are living in shelters or in their cars. Violence has increased, partially because those long commuting times leave many youth unsupervised during off-school hours, partially because of increasing substance abuse brought on by people’s difficult circumstances. The community has turned into a depressed and depressing place, and most citizens feel powerless to do anything about it. How can you change this situation so that people start to take action to improve their lives? One answer is to convince people that they can make a difference and get them to work together in thinking out what they can…
Expected genetic and genomic assessment findings and diagnostic results There are practical benefits and risks of diagnostic and predictive tests employed in clinical environments, and genetic testing is no exemption. Most genetic tests are utilized in cases that, albeit not distinctive to genetic testing, present distinct challenges in evaluating benefit and harm equilibrium. For instance, the condition of concern may be rare or uncommon; interventions may be inhibited; different therapeutic outcomes may be recommended, depending on the participant. Tests may not be comprehensively examined until after their clinical introduction; there may be inadequate and contradictory evidence and direction on the use of the test. Expected genetic and genomic assessment findings and diagnostic results A person can have a regular and abnormal mix of haemoglobin without sickle cell disease in the red blood cells. The above disorder called the “sickle cell trait.” Individuals with sickle cell trait in their red blood cells have quite enough regular haemoglobin to prevent the cells from sickling.

Responses: Reflect on how improvement science may help you to understand problems within your context of professional practice. Response to Hanrui He Dear Hanrui He, I could not agree more to some of the points that you have raised in your post. Mainly, regarding the correlation between improvement science and higher education, you made it clear that improvement science bridges the gap between research and practice. I could support your sentiments by illustrating the point that many technologies have been created in institutions of higher education. Institutions of higher education can test these technologies. Most institutions of higher education have research departments that work closely with stakeholders in improvement science to attain better outcomes. I also agree in as much the role of the two entities is to bridge the gap between research and practice; there is still a disconnect between the two. I have also noted that in your post, you have highlighted some critical issues in explaining why there is a disconnect between research and practice. For instance, you have categorically highlighted the fact that instead of researchers…
