Background: Burnout, disengagement, and turnover among clinicians is a major challenge for the US health care industry. Research has shown that higher direct supervisor leadership scores correlate with decreased provider burnout and increased professional fulfillment. Safety-net health systems such as Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) face increased challenges due to limited financial resources, more complex social determinants of health among patients, and often fewer physician leaders who can serve as mentors compared to large, integrated health systems.

Methods: We defined a CRE case as the first isolation of , complex, , , , or resistant to any carbapenem. We defined an ESBL-E case as the first isolation of , , or resistant to any third-generation cephalosporin and nonresistant to all carbapenems tested.
Red tide is caused by the accumulation of Karenia (K.) brevis, which produces brevetoxin (BTx), a neurotoxin. Excreted BTx is incorporated into sea spray aerosol (SSA), which is created from the bursting of bubbles at the ocean's surface.

This phase 1 study evaluated the safety of targeting ROR1 with autologous T-lymphocytes engineered to express a ROR1 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Secondary objectives evaluated persistence, trafficking, and antitumor activity of CAR T cells.
