An Introduction to Research Work, Scholarship, and Paving a Way to a Career in Academic Medicine.

Introduction: Despite high faculty attrition and challenges to expanding the number of clinician-researchers, career development to heighten trainees' pursuit of an academic research career remains a relatively understudied topic. Completing peer-reviewed publications during medical school increases a trainee's likelihood of becoming a future faculty member. There is a lack of educational content to guide trainees in selecting research activities, publishing, and gaining self-efficacy to pave a path towards a clinician-researcher track.

PTSD in civilian populations after hospitalization following traumatic injury: A comprehensive review.

Background: Injuries and their comorbidities affect victims far beyond their physical recovery period. Some study-measures show that more than half of patients hospitalized for a traumatic injury suffer from Acute Stress Disorder, alcohol dependence, and recurrent trauma. Overall, this literature review serves to review risk factors for PTSD, screening tools, follow-up strategies, and gaps in the literature for achieving feasible patient-centered interventions for the prevention of PTSD after a traumatic injury.
