Biomedical endeavours can be divided into three major categories: research, education, and testing. Within the context of each of these categories, activities involving whole animals have made major contributions and will continue to do so in the future. However, with technological developments in the areas of biotechnology and computers, new methods are already reducing the use of whole animals in certain areas. This article discusses the general issues of alternatives and then focuses on the development of new approaches to toxicity testing.

Connected and collaborative learning that leads to co-creation of ideas and solutions is imperative across all levels of education. To make the shift we want to see, we need to understand the pedagogy of online learning in a global context. This commentary shares an understanding of thought leaders who have developed and shared new approaches that take learning beyond the immediate environment sca olded by digital technologies. It also poses the question, "What if we collaborated as a global community?" and starts a conversation about new pedagogical approaches to support " at," connected learning. This is already happening now—the future is now— it’s time to connect the world.

The cultural revolution of 1968 paved the way for many artists to reconsider how and where theatre was made. Community theatre gained currency and one company who became prominent during this cultural shift was Welfare State, later Welfare State International. They were one of the theatre companies who focused not only on a community theatre aesthetic but a grassroot one. I examine the radicality of community theatre and consider the efficacy of the historical approaches to engaging with communities in a (Post-)Covid world. I acknowledge and explore the shifting understanding of communities and assert that a deeper engagement is needed to foster collectivity (Tannahill 2016; Fişek 2019; Weston 2020; Bartley 2021). To reconsider the role that theatre may play in the future, I focus on a grassroot approach to community-led work and posit that location will be a key component to how theatre is made as we emerge from a pandemic.

Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies are changing the way financial and business records are created and stored. New approaches to collaboration within and across industries enabled by this technology will increasingly result in new opportunities for data analytics. This pencil-and-paper activity can help students unfamiliar with blockchain-related technologies understand these systems and the inter-organizational databases that result from their use.

Chapter 5 explores how the foundations for TNGO legitimacy have changed over time, creating imperatives for TNGOs to invest in new capabilities and adopt new practices. In the past, TNGOs derived legitimacy from their espoused principles, representational claims, elite expertise, demonstrated financial stewardship, commitment to charity, and patterns of conformity. More recently, TNGOs themselves have helped to bring about a shift toward new bases for legitimacy that focus on effectiveness, strategy, leadership, governance, transparency, and responsiveness. However, transitioning to the legitimacy practices of the future is complicated by the persistence of an antiquated architecture that still demands that TNGO conform to legacy expectations. Nevertheless, new approaches to enhancing legitimacy provide a wide range of opportunities that invite organizations to proactively align their aspirations with emerging stakeholder expectations.

Abstract The demand for platelet transfusions continues to grow. Several complementary approaches that may help meet this demand in the future are reviewed. First, platelet bacterial testing is beginning to allow the extension of platelet storage beyond 5 days. Studies are also underway aimed at better preserving viability and function during ex vivo platelet storage: additive solutions and other approaches are being developed to try to negate the “platelet storage lesion.” Finally, new approaches to dosing platelets may help extend the limited supply.

The article views an especial case of forming of public spaces of mono-industry town Togliatt i in the historical context of late Soviet modernism architecture and modern problems of renovation of public spaces in mono-industry towns.

The data of sociological polls are cited and the prerequisites for fi nding new approaches to fi ll the empty spaces with a new function are defi ned. On the example of Togliatt i Italian Park the experience of revitalizing empty public spaces with diff erent methods - promotional events, public Italian lessons, mobile cinemas in open air - is described. The revealed methodology could be applied to many Russian mono-industry towns.
