Building Family Medicine Research Through Community Engagement: Leveraging Federal Awards to Develop Infrastructure.

Many academic departments and programs struggle with the challenge of how to begin a meaningful research program. A useful place to start is with the work they already are doing in communities. Using work in practices and other clinical venues as a springboard can build helpful relationships that can catalyze research and build infrastructure that matters to family medicine clinicians, researchers, and the communities they serve.

A Proposed mHealth Intervention to Address Patient Barriers to Colposcopy Attendance: Qualitative Interview Study of Clinic Staff and Patient Perspectives.

Background: Cervical cancer disparities persist among minoritized women due to infrequent screening and poor follow-up. Structural and psychosocial barriers to following up with colposcopy are problematic for minoritized women. Evidence-based interventions using patient navigation and tailored telephone counseling, including the Tailored Communication for Cervical Cancer Risk (TC3), have modestly improved colposcopy attendance.

The influence of solute concentration and filtration on mesoscale clusters of flufenamic acid, a typical pharmaceutical compound, in ethanol.

Hypothesis: It is hypothesised in this work that mesoscale clusters will be present in both undersaturated and supersaturated solutions of organic pharmaceutical molecules. These clusters, being loose aggregates, could be sensitive to shear forces experienced during filtration. Thus, comparing the behaviour of these clusters alongside nanoparticles during filtration-an important sample treatment parameter during crystallization-will elucidate qualitative differences from solid, crystalline nanoparticles of similar size.

Targeting Protein Disorder for the Remediation of Antimicrobial Resistance.

The remediation of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a fundamental challenge for global healthcare. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are recognized drug targets for neurodegeneration and cancer but have not been considered to date for AMR. Here, a novel link between structural disorder and AMR is identified by mapping predicted disorder profiles onto existing transcriptomic data for resistant and susceptible isolates.

Health care transition recommendations for young people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and co-occurring mental health conditions: Stakeholder survey findings.

Background: Limited knowledge exists as to the supports and services young people with IDD and co-occurring mental health conditions need to transition to adult-focused health care and adulthood.

Methods: The survey findings presented were part of a larger investigation that explored these service and supports needs obtained from 144 respondents. Data reported for this investigation were obtained from 144 respondents who answered the question, "What do you think would be most helpful to assist young people with IDD and mental health conditions with the transition from child to adult health care (not including mental health care)?"Qualitative analysis based upon the social-ecological model was undertaken.
