  1. Hadronaccellerators for healthA pilot study of socio-economic and knowledge-related impacts Grenoble Ecole de Management - LINC Lab http://www.grenoble-em.com/linclab Presented by Andrea Carafa

  2. Agenda • Who we are • Our pilot study • Aims and research focus • Why studying both Proton and Carbon Ion routes • Methods and data sources • Time line and follow-up of the study

  3. Who we are • LINC Lab (Learning & Innovation in Networks & Communities) at Grenoble Ecole de Management, France • Prof. Dimitris Assimakopoulos, Founder and Director • Andrew Parker, Associate Professor and Deputy Director • Andrea Carafa, Marie Curie ESR Fellow • University of Virginia, USA • Rob Cross, Associate Professor, McIntire School of Business • Drew Hess, Assistant Professor, McIntire School of Business

  4. Aims • Understanding the socio-economic impacts and knowledge spillovers • From the high energy physics (HEP) community • To industry and clinical practice • Developing an appropriate research methodology for a more comprehensive future study

  5. Research focus • Proton and Ion-based Technologies • The emerging community that socially constructs these technologies • Formal and informal collaboration between and within: • HEP community (e.g. CERN) • Industry (e.g. Siemens) • Clinicians (e.g. Heidelberg, Marburg)

  6. Why studying both routes? • Proton route: • Mature • Entering a final acceptance stage • Large majority of machines provided by industry • Ion route (mainly carbon): • In its early days of adoption • In its clinical evaluation phase • Still in the hands of research labs with ongoing transfer of expertise to industry for development and construction Proton route’s societal impacts as a benchmark for ion’s

  7. Methodologies and data sources • Semi-structured interviews with leading experts • Aims: • Exploratory • Refining the study’s scope Data sources • HEP community • Industry • Clinicians *Interviews done to date: • UgoAmaldi, Michael Benedikt, ManjitDosanjh

  8. Methodologies and data sources • Bibliometric (formal network) analysis • Co-publications • Co-citations • Co-patenting Data sources: • Web of Science • PubMed • Derwent

  9. All co-publication ties

  10. Key publication ties

  11. Methodologies and data sources • Survey-based (informalnetwork) analysis • Informal collaboration in the emerging community • Identifying and pin pointing central connectors, knowledge brokers, rising stars etc. • Semi-structured interviews with leading experts identified through the formal / informal network analysis • Aim: Triangulation of findings

  12. Time line and follow-up of the pilot project • Duration: October 2010 - July 2011 • 2 presentations of final results • LINC Lab, Net Innovation Roundtable at GEM (June 17th 2011) • CERN, Geneva, July 18th 2011 • Results will be used as an input for a large research proposal to the European Commission (to be submitted in December 2011) • Possible developments: • The EC proposal may include other HEP related technologies / cases • Increased understanding of socio-economic impacts and knowledge spillovers through comparative analysis and generalisation • From the high energy physics (HEP) community • To industry and clinical practice
