Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
During the last year of research, I have focused on the completion of an authored book stressing the dynamics of the global medtech industry in 1960-2020. The book was published in early 2022 by Macmillan. Other publications during this year inlude a chapter in an edited volume on medical technology in Japan from a STM approach (in which I offered the perspective of business history) and an article in a French peer-reviewed journal. Besides, I continued my cooperation with Prof. Paloma Fernandes (University of Barcelona) on the business history of healthcare and gave a paper at the 2nd World Congress on Business History (Nagoya, online).
