Ciência e Covid-19: a construção de programas de pesquisa científica frente a cenários complexos e em contraponto ao contexto negacionista / Science and Covid-19: the construction of scientific research programs in view of complex scenarios and in counterpoint to the denialist context

Resume O papel que a ciência tem cumprido em relação à pandemia da Covid-19 está em franca discussão no Brasil e no mundo. Considerando a necessidade de aprofundar o debate sobre as concepções de ciência no presente contexto, assim como suas consequências, o objetivo deste ensaio é discutir, a partir de referenciais da epistemologia, o problema da demarcação entre ciência e não ciência, os programas de pesquisa científica e o negacionismo na pandemia. Na primeira parte do texto, apresenta-se a discussão da demarcação entre ciência e não ciência, com destaque para a proposição do filósofo Imre Lakatos sobre os programas de pesquisa científica e sua relação com as pesquisas sobre a Covid-19. Na segunda parte, argumenta-se sobre o negacionismo na pandemia da Covid-19 e sua relação com a necropolítica e o neofascismo. Por fim, discute-se a necessidade de incorporação da interdisciplinaridade, participação ativa dos sujeitos e garantia dos direitos humanos em programas de pesquisa científica sobre a Covid-19, assim como em outros temas de saúde pública.

Abstract The role that science has played in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic is in frank discussion in Brazil and in the world. Considering the need to deepen the debate on the conceptions of science in the present context, as well as its consequences, this essay aims to discuss, from epistemological references, the problem of the demarcation between science and non-science, scientific research programs and denialism in the pandemic. In the first part of the text, the discussion of the demarcation between science and non-science is presented, with emphasis on the proposition of philosopher Imre Lakatos on scientific research programs and their relationship with research on Covid-19. In the second part, an argument is made about denialism in the Covid-19 pandemic and its relationship with necropolitics and neo-fascism. Finally, the need to incorporate interdisciplinarity, the active participation of subjects and the guarantee of human rights in scientific research programs on Covid-19, as well as in other public health topics, is discussed.Resumo: O papel que a ciência tem cumprido em relação à pandemia da Covid-19 está em franca discussão no Brasil e no mundo.

Analysis of NSFC-supported programs in the field of psychiatry from 2011 to 2019 / 中华医学科研管理杂志

Objective:To explore the trend of psychiatry development by analyzing the funding of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) from 2011 to 2019, including key programs, general programs, young scientists funds, and talent programs, to provide a reference for the determination of research direction for researchers and the improvement of project management for research managers.Methods:The information on key programs, general programs, young scientists funds, and talent programs in psychiatry from 2011-2019 were retrieved from the NSFC management system and the NSFC result inquiry system of LetPub from 2011 to 2019 and analyzed for their research directions and contents.Results:Total of 947 programs in psychiatry were funded from 2011 to 2019, including 12 key programs, 396 general programs, 335 young scientists funds, and 35 talent programs. The approved programs showed a cyclical fluctuation trend from year to year. The numbers and funding of programs in psychiatry were significantly lower than those of other medical disciplines. The research content gradually changed from basic research to applied basic research. The approved programs were mainly concentrated in research institutions in Beijing and Shanghai. The requirements for program leaders and supporting institutions varied for different program types.Conclusions:NSFC promotes the overall development of research levels in psychiatry with an increasing demand for applied basic research and uneven development of research levels in different regions. Psychiatric talent training and discipline construction need to be strengthened urgently.

Funding and effect analysis on Hospital-level Young Scholar Scientific Research Program in tertiary public hospital / 中华医学科研管理杂志

Objective To understand and analyze the effect and impact on Hospital-level Young Scholar Scientific Research Program in personal training and project promoting.Methods To review and analyze the archived documents and data materials of total 402 Young Scholar Scientific Research Program involving 339 young fellows from 2003 to 2013,compared the research input and output with general hospital level,including getting new fund,publications,Awards and patent.Results Output on researchers with Young Scholar Scientific Research Program is much higher than the general hospital level,but showing unbalanced distribution in medical disciplines.Conclusions To establishment of Young Scholar Scientific Research Program has achieved very good effect in promoting research in tertiary public hospital as well as has empowered the young fellows for conducting scientific research independently.It is proposed to go on strength the scientific management and optimize the system construction of research input,further establishing academic communication platform for young fellows.

A national research program for the Philippines

For many years there has been a feeling and thinking among our medical scientist and medical research supporters that there is something fundamentally lacking in our total research activities. Several meetings and conferences have been called to crystalize and spell out our national medical research problems. All these brought out that our main problems are those of direction and more effectiveness in our research efforts. This led to the realization that what we need as a starting point is the formulation of a national medical research program for the Philippines (Author)
