Integrated, collaborative efforts are needed to standardize a multi-modal set of biomarkers with dynamic range, optimize the methods, and conduct sufficiently powered, multi-site studies so that these tools progress rapidly to clinical qualification by regulatory agencies.
While these challenges have been addressed in some countries with strong research capacity through the development and standardization of diagnostic tools, progress has been slow in using such instruments widely within those countries themselves, let alone, within a global context, where significant cultural and linguistic variation across and within communities needs to be accounted for.
The crude tools progressed to fire, language, the wheel, weapons, art, agriculture, metals, towns, villages, cities, nations, fossil fuels, the splitting of the atom.
The tool behaviour of 34 crows was assessed in pre-testing sessions (for details, see [ 43]), and only birds that were confirmed to manufacture and use hooked stick tools progressed to the main experiments [ 43, 63].
As the tool progresses along the weld, the plasticised material around the tool pin is transferred layer by layer.
Self-assessment of capacity at the MHDs, using the HICAP tool, progressed substantially from the 2002 to 2003 baseline assessments to the end of the project (2004).
Once they have mastered these tools, they progress to computer-controlled milling machines.
Development of new tools catalyzes progress in biochemical sciences [G.M. Whitesides, E. Ostuni, S. Takayama, X.Y. Jiang, D.E. Ingber, Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering 3 (2001) 335].
This paper reviews advances in the development of bacterial annotation and comparative analysis tools, and progress in the design of novel database structures for the integration of heterogeneous biological information.
UNICEF works to improve children's capacity to develop and learn, and to ensure that the educational environment provides the necessary tools for progress and growth.
For this reason, the UN office on sport for development and peace has been running a youth leadership programme since 2012, with the aim of empowering young leaders from disadvantaged communities to use sport as a tool for progress.
