Talking about functioning is not just theory… We need concepts to do things and functioning operationalises an idea of health that extends beyond physical health. Mesuring what people can/cannot do in light of health conditions is a main person-centered approach. It mean working with people to understand what matters to them, their aspirations and goals and to “enable” all this.

The U.S. federal government is the largest funder of scientific research in the world — but it is risk-averse to a fault. New approaches to peer review can bring American research back to the bleeding edge. Fascinating article by Federation of American Scientists. In 2021, the researchers Chiara Franzoni and Paula Stephan published a working paper arguing that risk in science results from three sources of uncertainty: uncertainty of research outcomes, uncertainty of the probability of success, and uncertainty of the value of the research outcomes. To comprehensively and consistently account for these sources of uncertainty, they proposed a new expected utility approach to peer review evaluations. https://lnkd.in/grWyhixs https://lnkd.in/dj5wwHit
