ABSTRACT
Covid-19 pandemic has caused hundreds of thousands deaths and millions of infections and continued spreading violently. Although researchers are racing to find or develop effective drugs or vaccines, no drugs from modern medical system have been proven effective and the high mutant rates of the virus may lead it resistant to whatever drugs or vaccines developed following modern drug development procedure. Current evidence has demonstrated impressive healing effects of several Chinese medicines (CMs) for Covid-19, which urges us to reflect on the role of CM in the era of modern medicine. Undoubtedly, CM could be promising resources for developing drug candidates for the treatment of Covid-19 in a way similar to the development of artemisinin. But the theory that builds CM, like the emphasis of driving away exogenous pathogen (virus, etc.) by restoring self-healing capacity rather than killing the pathogen directly from the inside and the 'black-box' mode of diagnosing and treating patients, is as important, yet often ignored, an treasure as CM herbs and should be incorporated into modern medicine for future advancement and innovation of medical science.

El crecimiento de las empresas en un mundo altamente competitivo depende del rendimiento superior del proceso de desarrollo de sus productos. Estudios anteriores mostraron que hoy la dificultad principal del crecimiento del Centro de Inmunología Molecular está en la capacidad de penetrar los mercados de exportación, y el desarrollo de nuevos productos. La implementación de un sistema de gestión de desarrollo de productos a partir del diagnóstico de las limitaciones actuales permitirá eliminar las restricciones en el desarrollo de nuevos productos y constituirá una herramienta para el éxito de la realización de los mismos de manera competitiva. En este artículo se caracteriza la gestión de desarrollo de productos en el Centro de Inmunología Molecular, a partir de la realización de encuestas y tormentas de ideas y se propone un sistema de gestión para el desarrollo de productos en la institución que permita su uso como herramienta para su competitiva realización(AU)
The growth of companies in a highly competitive world depends on the superior performance of the development process of their products. Previous studies showed that today the main difficulty of the Molecular Immunology Center growth resides in the ability to enter international markets, and in the development of new products. The implementation of a product development management system based on the diagnosis of the current limitations will eliminate the restrictions and will be a tool for successfully implementing competitive products at the center. The product development management in the Center of Molecular Immunology is characterized in this paper starting from surveys and brainstorming results; and a product development management system is proposed to the institution as a tool to create a sustainable competitive advantage for the new products(AU)
