The aquarium had a whole building showing fish/reptiles/etc. from inland waters (the focus of our paper), and it was fun to see so many fish from our study areas.

We applied the framework to the problem of locating hand sanitizer stations on a university campus during COVID-19.
In general, we aim to present one option to add a bit of rigor to the process of stakeholder interaction and hope this could support better decisions in practice.

The framework is embedded in concepts from the field of Cognitive Systems Engineering.
Note how the modelers' perspectives on the problem (mental models) are shaped by interviews and affect the resulting model version.

The paper's goal is to present a framework to support the process of applied optimization model development.
We've observed that much modeling occurs in an iterative, though ad hoc way. The paper aims to provide a theoretical grounding for this process.
I.e., to support the figure's right panel.

Policies:
Can pricing supplements improve access in low and lower-middle income countries? Yes.
Does back-shoring to the US help shortages? Not really.
Do bilateral alliances help shortages? Not really.

Findings (cancer drug case study):
Who is affected when a company doesn't plan for geopolitical strain?
- Company profit - minor (1-3% decrease)
- Patients - major (26-29% increase in shortages).
There are differences in shortages between countries of different income levels due to pricing

It's about global pharma supply chains, geopolitical strain, and drug shortages:
- We present a new model to locate facilities in spite of export ban risks.
- We evaluate shortages worldwide: under different levels of strain and different mitigation policies.
- We present a new model to locate facilities in spite of export ban risks.
- We evaluate shortages worldwide: under different levels of strain and different mitigation policies.
