On April 27 2017, Scientists reports successfully growing lambs in artificially offering hope for preemies
-Researchers are creating an artificial womb to improve care for extremely premature babies in hopes of a better chance of survival
-It gives a more gentler solution than hooking them into a ventilator and other machines inside an incubator
-New approach mimics a womb-like environment and treats the preemies as fetuses inside a mother's womb and attached to it is a mechanical placenta that keeps blood oxygenated
-Animal-testing have been don on extremely premature lambs that were able to grow normal inside the system for three to four weeks
-Began with a tiny fetus that was able to spend most of its times sleeping. In four weeks, the fetus opened its eyes, grew wool and had the ability to breathe and swim
-Human testing is still far fetched, although this new experiment can make it faster as the team is already in discussions with the U.S Food and Drug Administration
-Objective: To attempt and save the most critically premature infant that are born before 26 weeks of gestation and even those rate the the limits of viability- 24-25 weeks.
- Extreme prematurity is a leading cause of infant mortality and the 10 percent that do make it have a majority of serious disabilities such as cerebral palsy (Movement disorders)
-Ability to deliver a baby that is physiologically 28 to 29 weeks in development.
- Lambs were delivered by C-Sections and immediately placed into the baobab.

1. Summarize and Identify managers as problem solving, problem solving approaches, types of thinking in 5 steps.
1. In any workplace, managers must be really good at problem-solving in many situations as well as on the spot problems that arise. That must make alternative decisions if need be while facing a continuous stream of other daily problems. One example is performance deficiency, when a employee's daily output decreases or when a customer has a complaint. On the other hand, these issues brings up performance opportunities for workers to practice their problem-solving skills.
2. They're four main approaches of thinking: Systematic thinking, intuitive thinking, multi-dimensional thinking and strategic opportunism. A systematic thinker and intuitive thinker come hand in hand with each other. A systematic thinker approaches problems in a rational, step-by-step, and analytical fashion. Where as an intuitive thinker is spontaneous and responds imaginatively with problems. Also, a multi-dimensional thinker commonly has the ability to view many problems at once, in relationship to another issue. Lastly, a strategic opportunist has the ability to remain focused on long-term objectives while being flexible to resolve short-term problems and opportunities in a timely manner.
The 5 steps in the decision-making process is as followed: Identify and define the problem, generate and evaluate alternative solutions, choose a preferred course of action and conduct ethics double-check, implement the decision, and evaluate the results.
