A victim of phishing emails could be subjected to money loss and identity theft. This paper investigates the different types of phishing email victims, with the goal of increasing such victims’ defences. To obtain this kind of information, an experiment which involves sending a phishing email to participants is conducted. Quantitative and qualitative methods are also used to collect users’ info...

Cohort study designs have several advantages over case-control studies in terms of exposure measurement. If exposure measurement occurs before disease occurrence, cohort studies are much less prone to differential measurement error. Prospective data collection should also reduce measurement error due to poor recall of past exposures. The primary drawback of cohort studies is the large sample si...

Obesity has been consistently associated with an increased risk of postmenopausal breast cancer in population-based studies. Conversely, obesity in such studies has been inversely associated with premenopausal breast cancer risk. In a report of data from two large chemoprevention trials, both of which enrolled women at a high risk of breast cancer, obesity was associated with only a modest, non...

There is a widespread acceptance that organising by projects is on the increase. In previous research on the management of projects, the majority of studies have adopted project-centric approaches, downplaying organisationor company-wide matters even in firms whose performance largely depends on the combined success of multiple projects. In this paper, we focus on the problem of management cont...

Technology transfer of biological products is a complex process that is important for product commercialization. To achieve a successful technology transfer, the risks that arise from changes throughout the project must be managed. Iterative risk analysis and mitigation tools can be used to both evaluate and reduce risk. The technology transfer stage gate model is used as an example tool to hel...

Executive summary A case control study is a special type of retrospective study which can be used to identify risk factors or biomarkers for a disease. It requires relatively small sample sizes relative to a cohort study, particularly when the disease of interest is rare. This document describes how to design and perform a case control study and gives an example of how it might be relevant to c...
