Naturalistic observation of verbal behavior on social media is a method of gathering data on the acceptability of topics of social interest. In other words, online social opinion may be a modern-day measure of social validity. We sought to gain an objective understanding of online discourse related to the field of applied behavior analysis (ABA).

Background: The Wound Care Collaborative Community (WCCC) assesses shortcomings and unmet needs in wound care by partnering with key stakeholders, such as the National Institutes of Health, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), industry leaders, and expert health care providers and researchers, to advance the study of wound healing. Through this work, the WCCC has identified a few key barriers to innovation in wound care. The WCCC aims to accelerate the development of science-based, patient-centered solutions and address public policy challenges related to ensuring patients receive early access to innovative treatment options.

Background: Digital cognitive tools offer novel ways to detect early cognitive changes associated with preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD). A digital version of the maze test (dMaze) was recently developed using a digital pen (12 ms temporal precision) to uniquely capture the process of test completion, reflecting the thinking effort, potentially more sensitive to early cognitive deficits in preclinical AD. The sensitivity of these novel digital maze test variables-Wall Penetration Count and Speed Standard Deviation (Speed SD)-to detect early amyloid-β burden was evaluated, hypothesizing that greater amyloid accumulation would be associated with greater variability of speed, and more wall penetration errors while completing the task, reflecting a greater thinking effort.

Background: Now, at the beginning of the era of disease-modifying drugs for AD, many questions must be addressed in the effort to optimize benefits. Important issues remain regarding the timing and duration of amyloid-removing immunotherapy and the potential advantages of combination therapies. Anti-fibrillar amyloid antibodies effectively remove amyloid but may not be appropriate for maintenance of the low amyloid state; secretase inhibition is a reasonable alternative.

Increasing the use of microphysiological systems (MPS) in Three Rs and regulatory applications is a nuanced but important goal, which would also help increase their scientific impact. There are three distinct and important stakeholder groups that each play a unique role in expediting the use of MPS for regulatory purpose - namely, commercial MPS developers, end-users and regulators. Additionally, non-profit organisations, such as the 3Rs Collaborative (3RsC), can help coordinate these efforts.
