Increasing Diversity in the Physician Workforce: Pathway Programs and Predictive Analytics.

Problem: Lack of diversity in the physician workforce has well-documented negative impacts on health outcomes. Evidence supports the use of pathway or pipeline programs to recruit underrepresented in medicine students. However, data on how a pathway program should deliver instruction are lacking.

Use of a static magnetic field to promote recovery after peripheral nerve injury.

Object: While pulsed electromagnetic stimulation has been shown to enhance peripheral nerve regeneration, the effect of a static magnetic field on nerve repair is less clear. The aim of this study was to establish what effect an imposed exogenous static magnetic field has on peripheral nerve regeneration after transection and repair.

Methods: Three groups of six adult sheep were used.
