Objective: This study aims to assess the current trends in remote and flexible work models in radiology, evaluate their perceived impact on radiologists' well-being, and explore the importance of these options in shaping employment decisions.
Methods: A voluntary, anonymous survey was sent to 981 members of the Association of Academic Radiologists (AAR) in April 2024. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze demographics and trends in remote and flexible work participation.

This manuscript illuminates the need for childcare support for trainees and faculty in the field of radiology, highlighting the essential need for access, affordability, and high-quality childcare services. For over four decades, women radiologists have voiced the challenges of meeting both childcare and professional responsibilities. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted systemic inadequacies in the childcare infrastructure, exacerbating the challenges of this long-standing balancing act.

- * Symptoms typically include bone pain, fatigue, and other neurological issues, with imaging playing a crucial role in early detection and diagnosis alongside clinical findings.
- * Radiologists are now guided by revised guidelines for the management of ECD, informed by molecular insights and the introduction of targeted therapies like vemurafenib and cobimetinib, to improve patient outcomes.
Background: Previous research showed that 5-hydroxytryptophan (5HTP), a metabolic precursor of serotonin, reduces allergic lung inflammation by inhibiting eosinophil migration across endothelial monolayers.
Objective: It is unknown if serotonin receptors are involved in mediating this 5HTP function or if serotonin receptor (HTR) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associate with lung function in humans.
Methods: Serotonin receptor subtypes were assessed by qPCR, western blot, confocal microscopy, pharmacological inhibitors and siRNA knockdown.
