Call for Book Chapters on Deceased Organ Donations as an interdisciplinary science (information Systems, Game model, AI)
Deadline for proposal 2 June 2024
Deadline for full chapters submission August 2024
This is the first time for me to try to organize a Book Chapters, so this is not written in a formal proposal language till I receive participants replies. I plan to write only a Preface or introduction based on what I gathered in this first attempt on the topic
So, I think for a start the chapters may include research or surveys/ SoK on:
-The economic game theoretic model (developed first by A. Roth, who won a Nobel prize on economy the same year) in
"Deceased Organ Donation and Allocation:
3 Experiments in Market Design"
Judd Kessler (Wharton)
Al Roth (Stanford ).
example chapter (although old, 2006) "Incentives for Deceased Donation"
National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. 2006. Organ Donation: Opportunities for Action. Washington, DC: The National Academies Press. https://doi.org/10.17226/11643.
-Medical statistics research
(The main theme of the book should be avoiding living donations)
-Could fall in one of the above a research on the effect of increased deceased donations on decreasing the need of living donations, or on killing black markets of organ trading.
I didn't read this one, 2014, in detail but it seems in the topic
-AI or Algorithmic Game Theory research on achieving the optimal coverage of all needs, whether on a certain organ (here it doesn't mention the deceased idea, the research should elaborate on the deceased numbers and their effect on diminishing the need to living donations)
Or concentrating on deceased from the beginning
equilibrium
"Parameterized Algorithms for Kidney Exchange"
Conference Paper Parameterized Algorithms for Kidney Exchange
"Generalized Matching Games for International Kidney Exchange"
(The book chapter targets research mapping or viewing this into the general problem of all kinds of donations targeting to minimize living donations to reach zero)
-Whatever is related and I missed if suggested early enough
To whom that are pursuing research near any of these topics and are interested to participate in such a book (targeting the Medical Information Reference of IGI), please contact me if you will be able to complete your full manuscript before the deadline in August.
All replies (3)
Not working right now
No; since no one replied, I did not submit the proposal before 2nd of June.
Maybe in another conference, or another call for Book Chapters.
Are you pursuing research in a related topic?
Your profile says that your master is in business, so you are probably interested in the economic game theory model, incentives,..etc
