Does Medical Education Require Radical Change?
J Med Educ Curric Dev
November 2024
Department of Pathology, Microbiology & Immunology, University of South Carolina School of Medicine, Columbia, SC, USA.
Over the last decades, the amount of knowledge that is required from learners in the medical field has become incredibly wide and deep, posing a burden for all stakeholders including medical schools, training hospitals, students, and society. The trajectory that has been established will soon render medical education ineffective, both from the perspective of the students who will not be able to productively internalize and effectively integrate the information they receive, and of the institutions and medical programs that will be unable to keep up with the pace of the medical progress and the relevant subject matter that needs to be taught. To address this burden, sooner than later, bold actions should be taken toward the radical transformation of the medical curriculum both in terms of its duration and its implementation and of the type of knowledge that the medical students will need to excel in, as a prerequisite for their subsequent training.

Article Synopsis
- Calcium peroxide nanoparticles (nCP) are gaining interest for groundwater remediation due to their ability to produce safe solid hydrogen peroxide (HO) sources.
- Compared to traditional Fenton systems, nCP offers a broader pH range for contaminant degradation because it generates different active radicals depending on the pH level.
- This research highlights how nCP can enhance radical formation in varying water conditions, providing insights for more effective remediation strategies.
Coastal marine habitats deterioration according to users' perception: the case of Cap de Creus Marine Protected Area (NE Spain).
Reg Environ Change
October 2024
Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals (ICTA), Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates how locals and tourists perceive environmental changes in the Cap de Creus Marine Protected Area in Spain to inform management strategies.
- Researchers conducted interviews with locals to identify perceived changes, followed by a survey of 427 participants, revealing a greater concern for economic over environmental issues.
- Findings show both locals and tourists noted environmental decline, but locals reported stronger feelings of deterioration, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring of marine protection effectiveness.
Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation Performance by Micropore-Confined Charge Transfer in Hydrogen-Bonded Organic Framework-Like Cocrystals.

December 2024
Key Laboratory of Organic Integrated Circuits, Ministry of Education, Tianjin Key Laboratory of Molecular Optoelectronic Sciences, Department of Chemistry, School of Science, Tianjin University, Tianjin, 300072, China.
Article Synopsis
- Carrier utilization in organic photocatalytic materials is hindered by high exciton binding energy and limited exciton diffusion length; improving this can enhance photocatalyst efficiency.
- The study introduces a novel hydrogen-bonded organic framework-like cocrystal (NDI-Cor HOF-cocrystal) that utilizes a cocrystal strategy to integrate charge transfer and porous design, leading to more efficient exciton migration to the catalyst surface.
- The NDI-Cor HOF-cocrystal demonstrates 15 times greater photocatalytic degradation of phenol compared to traditional HOFs, achieving nearly 90% mineralization, thus showcasing the potential of new strategies for developing high-performance organic photocatalysts.
Behind the Protein Battle Lines in the 1970s: Nutritional Turmoil in the Postwar World.

This study examines the development of international debates about the perception of nutrients, particularly protein, with a focus on the "Protein Debate" of the late 20th century. The nutritional obsession with protein has been ongoing since the early 19th century, when scientific nutrition was established, and has been at the center of debates surrounding food, agriculture, healthcare, and the environment, changing in shape and form over time. In addition to being a nutrient necessary for optimal physical and mental performance, protein has been a marker of poverty and discrimination at the international level and explains differences in individual living standards.
