Building tobacco Control Research in Thailand: meeting the need for innovative change in Asia
Health Research Policy and Systems, 2012Co-Authors: Stephen L Hamann, Jeremiah Mock, Sibasis Hense, Naowarut Charoenca, Nipapun KungskulnitiAbstract:Introduction In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) over the past two decades locally relevant tobacco Control Research has been scant. Experience shows that tobacco Control measures should be based on sound Research findings to ensure that measures are appropriate for local conditions and that they are likely to have an impact. Research should also be integrated within tobacco Control measures to ensure ongoing learning and the production of knowledge. Thailand, a middle-income country, has a public health community with a record of successful tobacco Control and a longstanding commitment to Research. Thailand's comprehensive approach includes taxation; bans on tobacco advertising, sponsorship and promotion; smoke-free areas; graphic cigarette pack warnings; social marketing campaigns; cessation counseling; and an established tobacco Control Research program. The purpose of this study was to document and analyze the development of tobacco Control Research capacity in Thailand and the impact of Research on Thai tobacco Control measures. Method We used mixed methods including review of historical documentation and policy reports, qualitative interviews with key members of Thailand's tobacco Control community, and an analysis of Research productivity. Findings In Thailand, tobacco Control Research has evolved through three phases: (1) discovery of the value of Research in the policymaking arena, (2) development of a structure to support Research capacity building through international collaborations supported by foreign funding agencies, and (3) delivery of locally relevant Research made possible largely through substantial stable funding from a domestic health promotion foundation. Over two decades, Thai tobacco Control advocates have constructed five steppingstones to success: (1) adapting foreign Research to inform policymaking and lobbying for more support for domestic Research; (2) attracting foreign funding agencies to support small-scale Research and capacity building; (3) participating in multi-country Research and capacity building programs; (4) using collaborative experiences to demonstrate the need for domestic support of locally relevant Research; and (5) maintaining an unwavering commitment to Research while being vigilant to ensure continued Research support. Conclusion The evolution of tobacco Control Research in Thailand provides examples of steppingstones that LMICs may be able to use to construct their own tobacco Control Research pathways.

Data on the interaction between thermal comfort and building Control Research.
Data in brief, 2018Co-Authors: June Young Park, Zoltán NagyAbstract:Abstract This dataset contains bibliography information regarding thermal comfort and building Control Research. In addition, the instruction of a data-driven literature survey method guides readers to reproduce their own literature survey on related bibliography datasets. Based on specific search terms, all relevant bibliographic datasets are downloaded. We explain the keyword co-occurrences of historical developments and recent trends, and the citation network which represents the interaction between thermal comfort and building Control Research. Results and discussions are described in the Research article entitled “Comprehensive analysis of the relationship between thermal comfort and building Control Research – A data-driven literature review” (Park and Nagy, 2018).

comprehensive analysis of the relationship between thermal comfort and building Control Research a data driven literature review
Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2018Co-Authors: June Young Park, Zoltán NagyAbstract:Abstract Buildings are responsible for about 30–40% of global energy demand. At the same time, we humans spend almost our entire life, up to 80–90% of the time, inside of buildings. Reducing energy demand through optimal operation is the subject of building Control Research, while human satisfaction in buildings is studied in the thermal comfort community. Thus, balancing the two is necessary for a sustainable and comfortable building stock. We review both Research fields and their relationship using a data-driven approach. Based on specific search terms, all relevant abstracts from the Web Of Science database are downloaded and analyzed using the text mining software VOSviewer. We visualize the scientific landscapes of historic and recent trends, and analyze the citation network to investigate the interaction between thermal comfort and building Control Research. We find that building Control focuses predominantly on energy savings rather than incorporating results from thermal comfort, especially when it comes to occupant satisfaction. We identify potential Research directions in terms of bridging the two fields.

PEER REVIEWED: The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network
Preventing Chronic Disease, 2004Co-Authors: Jeffrey R. Harris, Coughlin Steven, Katherine M. Wilson, James R. Hébert, Jon Kerner, Marianne N. Prout, Randy Schwartz, Maria E Fernandez, Pamela Brown, Eduardo J SimoesAbstract:The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network is a national network recently established to focus on developing new interventions and disseminating and translating proven interventions into practice to reduce cancer burden and disparities, especially among minority and medically underserved populations. Jointly funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Cancer Institute, the Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network consists of sites administered through Prevention Research Centers funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The five sites are located in Kentucky, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Texas, Washington State, and West Virginia. The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network's intervention areas include primary prevention of cancer through healthy eating, physical activity, sun avoidance, tobacco Control, and early detection of cancer through screening. The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network uses the methods of community-based participatory Research and seeks to build on the cancer-relevant systematic reviews of the Guide to Community Preventive Services. Initial foci for the Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network's Research work groups include projects to increase screening for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancers; to promote informed decision making for prostate cancer screening; and to validate educational materials developed for low-literacy populations.

impact of the cancer prevention and Control Research network accelerating the translation of Research into practice
American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2017Co-Authors: Kurt M Ribisl, Maria E Fernandez, Daniela B Friedman, Peggy A Hannon, Jennifer Leeman, Alexis Moore, Lindsay Olson, Marcia G Ory, Betsy Risendal, Laura ShebleAbstract:The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network (CPCRN) is a thematic network dedicated to accelerating the adoption of evidence-based cancer prevention and Control practices in communities by advancing dissemination and implementation science. Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Cancer Institute, CPCRN has operated at two levels: Each participating network center conducts Research projects with primarily local partners as well as multicenter collaborative Research projects with state and national partners. Through multicenter collaboration, thematic networks leverage the expertise, resources, and partnerships of participating centers to conduct Research projects collectively that might not be feasible individually. Although multicenter collaboration is often advocated, it is challenging to promote and assess. Using bibliometric network analysis and other graphical methods, this paper describes CPCRN's multicenter publication progression from 2004 to 2014. Searching PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science in 2014 identified 249 peer-reviewed CPCRN publications involving two or more centers out of 6,534 total. The Research and public health impact of these multicenter collaborative projects initiated by CPCRN during that 10-year period were then examined. CPCRN established numerous workgroups around topics such as: 2-1-1, training and technical assistance, colorectal cancer Control, federally qualified health centers, cancer survivorship, and human papillomavirus. This paper discusses the challenges that arise in promoting multicenter collaboration and the strategies that CPCRN uses to address those challenges. The lessons learned should broadly interest those seeking to promote multisite collaboration to address public health problems, such as cancer prevention and Control.
