Summary: Continuous integrated bioprocessing has gained significant attention from the biopharma industry, but its implementation in the biologics industry faces challenges due to legacy infrastructure, regulatory guidelines, and a focus on novel therapies. This article provides a review and perspective on the status and hurdles of continuous integrated bioprocessing. It suggests that the real impact of this technology may be seen when manufacturing costs become a significant portion of product development costs.

Summary: This study explores the influence of clinical supervision on person-centred practice.

Summary: This study investigated the perceptions and satisfaction of undergraduate students in clinical medicine, preventive medicine, radiology, and nursing regarding student-centered formative assessment (FA) in a comprehensive university in China. The results showed that although many students had a general understanding of FA, they had varied perceptions about the role of teachers in assessment and the effectiveness of teacher feedback. Furthermore, students expressed relatively low satisfaction with teacher feedback and learning tasks.

Summary: There is a global movement to make health and social care person-centred, but this research found that many final-year health and social care profession students in Australia are not yet using a person-centred approach. The study involved an online questionnaire with 90 students from two Australian universities, and the responses showed that almost half of them were not aligned with the core values of person-centred care.

Summary: This paper systematically reviews the characteristics of teacher education that either helped or hindered the implementation of learner-centred pedagogy (LCP) in low- and middle-income countries. The study found that factors such as the length of training, ongoing support, engagement and activeness, inclusion of practical experiences, incorporation of reflection in courses, contextual flexibility, and teacher collaboration influenced teacher education. These factors should be taken into consideration when implementing teacher education in contexts where LCP is encouraged.

Summary: Many countries' health systems are moving towards more person-centred care, but there is little guidance on how to apply this to pharmaceutical care and clinical pharmacy practices. This paper applies a model for person-centred care to the clinical work tasks of pharmacists and discusses how pharmaceutical care can become more person-centred.

Summary: The implementation of a comprehensive and person-centred approach has not been fully translated into research development in people living with SCI. This approach in research is important as the perspectives of persons living with SCI should be equally valued drivers in any research intended to provide a direct or indirect outcome to people living with a SCI.
