Effectiveness of educational training program on the knowledge of COTPA Act among the nonteaching staff of a tertiary care hospital.

Background: Globally, tobacco is among the leading factors attributable to death. The nonteaching staff plays a pivotal role in making a campus a "tobacco-free zone." The objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of an educational training program conducted on the Cigarette and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA) 2003 among nonteaching staff of a tertiary care hospital.

Examining the NEUROG2-lineage and associated-gene expression in human cortical organoids.

Proneural genes are conserved drivers of neurogenesis across the animal kingdom. How their functions have adapted to guide human-specific neurodevelopmental features is poorly understood. Here, we mined transcriptomic data from human fetal cortices and generated from human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived cortical organoids (COs) to show that NEUROG1 and NEUROG2 are most highly expressed in basal neural progenitor cells, with pseudotime trajectory analyses indicating that NEUROG1-derived lineages predominate early and NEUROG2 lineages later.
