In Bereichen wie Luftfahrt, Kernkraft, chemische Industrie, Medizin und Militär arbeiten Menschen mit komplexen technischen Systemen. Doch in kritischen Situationen entscheidet der Mensch, nicht die Maschine – und das häufig unter Zeitdruck und mit hohem Risiko. Dabei können Fehler dramatische Konsequenzen haben. Risikobranchen benötigen deshalb Maßnahmen, die Fehlerquellen minimieren, sicheres Handeln fördern und den „Faktor Mensch" angemessen berücksichtigen. Solche Maßnahmen bietet dieses Standardwerk der Human-Factors-Psychologie, für die zweite Auflage aktualisiert und überarbeitet: Im ersten Buchteil erklären Wissenschaftler Konzepte zu Sicherheit, Fehlern und menschlichem Handeln. Im zweiten Teil stellen erfahrene Praktiker und Wissenschaftler aktuelle Herausforderungen einzelner Branchen vor und präsentieren Lösungsansätze: Wie werden Prozesse und Systeme sicherer und Kommunikation effektiver gestaltet? Wie kann Komplexität reduziert werden? Welche Rolle spielen Personalführung oder neue Formen der Zusammenarbeit? Wie kann Teamarbeit trainiert werden? Sicherheitsbeauftragte, Manager, Personaler und Psychologen in Risikobranchen, Ingenieure, Trainer und Studenten finden in diesem Buch aktuelle Konzepte der Human-Factors-Psychologie anschaulich erklärt und mit spannenden Fallbeispielen verdeutlicht.

English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 459 Pages | ISBN : 3031659856 | 49.1 MB
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is increasing globally at an incredible rate, and many infectious diseases have already reached an alarming stage of resistance to existing treatments. WHO reports that nearly1.27 million people currently die each year due to resistant infections, and AMR is projected to account for 10 million annual deaths globally by 2050. There is an urgent need for novel approaches to address this issue. Omics technologies are powerful research tools used extensively to study pathogen biology and the activity of microbial agents. These tools, paired with systems biology approaches, can provide novel insights into antimicrobial susceptibility and resistance, and aid in the development of new, more effective measures to combat resistant pathogens.
