TL;DR: The primary finding is that although under ideal assumptions, follow-the-sun is able to produce impressive reductions in time-to-market, under more realistic assumptions the reverse is true, thus corroborating findings by other researchers.

TL;DR: A system dynamics simulation model of the U.S. opioid-using population age 12 and older was used to explore the impacts of 11 strategies on the prevalence of opioid use disorder (OUD) and fatal opioid overdoses from 2022 to 2032, providing insight into the kinds of multifaceted approaches needed to save lives.

TL;DR: This study builds upon prior work showing that pigs predominately roam and have contact with human feces within 50–100 m of the home, and that T. solium transmission is most likely to occur in these concentrated areas of contact.

TL;DR: An overview of data gaps revealed during the creation of a systems-level computer model of medical use, diversion, nonmedical use, and the adverse outcomes associated with opioid analgesics in the USA is provided and specific recommendations for future data collection efforts are provided.

TL;DR: The implications are that organizations should actively encourage information sharing; and agent based simulation was shown to be a useful tool for studying organizational phenomena.
