The Spanish Antibiogram Committee (Comité Español del Antibiograma, COESANT) presents in this document a simple "roadmap" or decalogue of recommendations, with a view to facilitating the transition from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) to the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) antimicrobial susceptibility testing regulations to the Clinical Microbiology Spanish laboratories that still use the CLSI guidelines. The objectives are to adapt the closer European regulations to the Spanish clinical and epidemiological reality and to fully implement the EUCAST recommendations in all microbiology laboratories in Spain.

Background: The Genome Center for Alzheimer's Disease (GCAD) coordinates the integration and meta-analysis of all available Alzheimer's disease (AD) relevant whole genome sequencing (WGS) data to facilitate the goal of identifying AD risk or protective genetic variants and eventual therapeutic targets. The WGS datasets are generated via the collaboration of scientists from the Alzheimer's Disease Sequencing Project (ADSP) and GCAD. To minimize data heterogeneity introduced by different sequencing protocols and machines, GCAD processes all samples using identical pipelines.

In the PRIMA project ArtiSaneFood, the microbiological parameters of several artisanal cheeses produced in the Mediterranean area have been quantified. In this pilot study, we selected four of these artisanal cheese products from Italy, Portugal, Spain, and Morocco to investigate and compare their microbiomes in terms of taxonomic composition, presence of reads of foodborne pathogens, as well as virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes. , and were the most represented genera in the Portuguese and Spanish cheeses, in the Italian cheese, and , , , and in the Moroccan products.

Background: Despite increased recruitment of Latina medical students, the percentage of Latina physicians has remained stagnant, suggesting unique retentive barriers affecting this population. Discriminatory experiences involving bias may contribute to difficulties in the retention and advancement of Latinas in medicine. This qualitative analysis aimed to explore thematic barriers prevalent among Latinas throughout their medical training in the United States.

The Arctic is among the most rapidly warming regions on Earth, and climate change has triggered widespread alterations to its cryosphere and ecosystems. Among these, high Arctic lakes are highly sensitive to rising temperatures due to the influence of ice cover on multiple limnological processes. Here, we studied the sediments of three lakes on northern Ellesmere Island (82.
