Think back to the day you graduated from your entry-level nursing program. The feelings we experienced at that time are likely universal, whether that day was one year ago or more than 40 years ago. No more tests, no more papers, no more clinical skills practice, and no more preparing the dreaded nursing care plan. School was finished. We all looked forward to passing our nursing boards and getting our first real nursing jobs. Certainly, we all had some vague idea that during our life as nurses we would, at some time, have to learn a new skill, or work with a new type of equipment; however, many of us did not seriously contemplate or acknowledge that we were embarking on a career path that expected us to be lifelong learners. Little did we know that engaging in the process of lifelong learning is not necessarily something that comes naturally; it is, in fact, a personal commitment that each of us makes to the pursuit of learning throughout our professional career.

Background: Monkeypox (Mpox), is a disease of global public health concern, as it does not affect only countries in western and central Africa.
Aim: To assess Burundi healthcare workers (HCWs)s' level of knowledge and confidence in the diagnosis and management of Mpox.

'Paediatric Emergency Course' for nursing continuing professional development programme evaluation: ARCS Motivational Design Model.
Nurs Crit Care
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Department of Paediatric, Izmir Democracy University, Izmir, Turkey.
Background: Paediatric emergency and critical care require skilled nurses, but they often face a lack of motivation during continuing professional development. Motivation-based, engaging activities in training programmes are essential to sustain interest and improve learning outcomes in these high-stress environments.
Aim: This study aims to develop, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a Paediatric Emergency Course (PEC) using the ARCS (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) Motivational Design Model to equip nurses with the knowledge and skills needed to manage paediatric patients in emergency and critical care settings.
Changes in Self-Directed Learning Among Doctor of Physical Therapy Students Across Didactic Curriculum: A Mixed-Methods Analysis.
J Phys Ther Educ
January 2025
Emily N. Getz is the director of outpatient therapy services and doctor of science in physical therapy program at the Bellin College, 3201 Easton Rd, Green Bay, WI Please address all correspondence to Emily N. Getz.
Introduction: Physical therapy education best practice includes the development of adaptive lifelong learners because of a constantly changing health care landscape. The purpose of this study was to identify how self-directed learning (SDL) changes in traditional Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students over the course of the didactic curriculum.
Review Of Literature: The Master Adaptive Learning (MAL) framework has been proposed as a framework that physical therapy educators adopt to create and educate physical therapists who embrace continuous change and build a culture of creativity and innovation.
Multimodal transcriptomics reveal neurogenic aging trajectories and age-related regional inflammation in the dentate gyrus.

The mammalian dentate gyrus (DG) is involved in certain forms of learning and memory, and DG dysfunction has been implicated in age-related diseases. Although neurogenic potential is maintained throughout life in the DG as neural stem cells (NSCs) continue to generate new neurons, neurogenesis decreases with advancing age, with implications for age-related cognitive decline and disease. In this study, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to characterize transcriptomic signatures of neurogenic cells and their surrounding DG niche, identifying molecular changes associated with neurogenic aging from the activation of quiescent NSCs to the maturation of fate-committed progeny.

Introduction: Osimertinib is now a standard first-line (1L) therapy for EGFR-mutated (EGFRm) advanced NSCLC. We aimed to characterize patterns of therapy and longitudinal risk of brain and liver metastasis in a cohort of EGFRm NSCLC.
Methods: Patients with metastatic EGFRm NSCLC who received 1L systemic therapy at sites within the Academic Thoracic Medical Investigator's Consortium were included; demographic and clinical data including treatment patterns were described.
