Summary: Calls for curricular reform in medical schools to better integrate basic and clinical science have led to a shift towards enhancing the clinical relevance of foundational science instruction and providing early exposure to the clinical environment. However, challenges such as the nature of clinical practice, time constraints, and limited faculty knowledge have hindered the full realization of these reforms. Despite efforts to integrate basic science into clerkships, more support and resources are needed to overcome barriers and fully incorporate basic science education into clinical training.

Summary: Open innovation is an important strategy for overcoming market complexity and ensuring the survival and sustainability of organizations, particularly in developing countries. This study proposes a model that utilizes the capabilities of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to manage the risks of open innovation. Through literature exploration and content validity analysis in the metal, chemical, and food industries in Iran, the study identifies the risks and underlying causes of open innovation. The results prioritize the lack of trust among partners and high costs of coordination as the most important risks, with the lack of internal commitment and inability to adapt to technological advancement as important underlying factors. The study highlights the significance of result-oriented management and employees' commitment to learning in reducing open innovation risks.
