The Importance of Doing Trials Right While Doing the Right Trials: Figure 1.

The importance of doing trials right while doing the right trials.

Effort is being expended in investigating efficiency measures (i.e., doing trials right) through achievement of accrual and endpoint goals for clinical trials. It is time to assess the impact of such trials on meeting the critical needs of cancer patients by establishing effectiveness measures (i.e., doing the right trials).

Doing the right thing.

In this paper we examine a phenomenon which has proved difficult to account for using standard assumptions of current syntactic theory, namely extraposition. Starting with Rosenbaum (1967), all analyses we are aware of (with the exception of Emonds (1976)) treat extraposition as adjunction of a phrase to some right peripheral projection of a matrix sentence. This adjunction may either be analyz...

Doing the right things.

This letter identifies recent examples of misrepresentation of biological helical structures and expresses concern about the continuing indulgent attitude towards distortion of scientific facts. It also teaches a simple trick to distinguish right- from left-handedness.

Lean Engineering: Doing the Right Thing Right

Lean techniques are having a major impact on aerospace manufacturing. However, the cost and value of aerospace (and many other) products is determined primarily in product development. Migrating lean to engineering processes is ongoing in the industry, and a subject of study at the MIT Lean Aerospace Initiative. This paper summarizes findings to date, with references to both research literature...
