Competency-based medical education is needed in order to meet the requirements of medical care currently and in the future. The basis of this are activity-based learning objectives that are merged in competency-based catalogues. A basis for a core curriculum of undergraduate medical training is the National Catalogue of Learning Objectives for Undergraduate Medical Education (NKLM). Already in 2013, for surgery, the competencies which medical students should have achieved after completing the practical year (PJ) in relation to surgical diseases were defined in the special part of the National Catalogue of Learning Objectives in Surgery (NKLC). In the now amended general part of the NKLC, interdisciplinary competencies were defined and consented from all surgical disciplines, that are relevant for all surgical disciplines and that all representatives from the different surgical disciplines should incorporate in their surgical training. The complete NKLC is now available for faculties, teachers and students for trial (available online: https://www.dgch.de/index.php?id=190&L=528). The guiding principle for the entire development process was to make sure that students gain all competencies they need when starting to work as a medical doctor and therefor to increase patient safety.

Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Background: Recruiting and retaining older adults for clinical trials is challenging, especially in low-resource settings. Such challenges led to a systematic exclusion of such participants from clinical trials, compromising the generalizability of the results obtained in high income countries.
Objective: Here we describe the strategies we used in the PROAME study for recruiting and retaining illiterate older adults from low socioeconomical levels in a non-pharmacological trial.

UIPS, CHANDIGARH, Punjab, India.
Background: Alzheimer's disease is a brain disorder that causes neurodegeneration and is linked with insulin resistance at molecular, clinical, and demographic levels. Defective insulin signaling promotes Aβ aggregation and accelerates Aβ formation in the brain leading to Type III diabetes.
Objective: The objective of this research project is to demonstrate a linkage if any between the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and insulin resistance.

Background: Driven by (bio-)medical and technical developments, advanced non-invasive methods for estimating the risk of Alzheimer's dementia (ADD) are increasingly emerging. In the future, such methods could eventually become available for individuals in asymptomatic and preclinical stages of Alzheimer's disease (e.g.

Background: Due to the high prevalence of depressive symptoms and dementia in older Americans (≥65 years), we trained unpaid family caregivers in an evidence-based life review depression intervention virtually via Zoom and produced positive outcomes. The objective of this study was to examine the feasibility of training caregivers via online video and delivering the intervention at home.
Method: We recruited caregiver-care recipient dyads nationwide during the COVID-19 pandemic (N = 20 dyads).
