Arriving at the University of Virginia in the autumn of 1969, Donald Hunt began his 50+ year career in academics with the study of organometallic chemistry, on which he had done his PhD thesis work, and mass spectrometry, to which he was introduced while a postdoc in Klaus Biemann's laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In the 1970s, Hunt's lab pioneered the use of negative chemical ionization (CI) to enhance sensitivity for studying organic molecules, developed a system for simultaneously obtaining positive and negative CI spectra to augment structure elucidation, and built a prototype triple quadrupole instrument so effective at collisional dissociation that its commercial counterpart became the analytical instrument of choice for mixture analysis for the next decade and beyond. Foreseeing that the future lay in the analysis of biological molecules, by the end of the decade Hunt shifted his focus to peptides.

This is the story of my 50-year career in medicine and research, and the people who influenced and helped me most along the way. I recount the way in which I became interested in oxytocin early in my career as a child psychiatrist, and how it led me back to Columbia University, my alma mater, to study oxytocin's role in mother-child innate behaviors. I recount how oxytocin/oxytocin receptor signaling was central to my basic and clinical research and present a new theory on mother-infant emotional behaviors that challenges 400 years of brain-centric science.

The financial desirability of dollar/time investments in postbaccalaureate healthcare professional education is needed. We therefore compared postbaccalaureate educational costs and career earnings for nurse anesthetists, eight other advanced degree, nonphysician professions, and 14 physician specialties with internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV) analysis. The IRR and NPV integrated educational costs (tuition, finance charges, lost salary opportunity costs), and career earnings using U.

Although 100% of congressional legislators vote on health care policy, only a minority have a background in health care. A review of the participation of health care professionals (HCPs) in Congress, highlighting participation by surgeons, is critical to the future policy-making endeavors in health care. This article seeks to better understand the characteristics of HCPs who engage in advocacy and describe the trends in their representation in Congress, with commentary on participation by surgeons and its impact on current health advocacy efforts.
