The Indiana Area Health Education Centers Scholars program is a 2-year leadership program designed to supplement health professions students' academic training and enhance practice readiness around 6 core topic areas including practice transformation. The study was a retrospective cohort study assessing learners' reported level of self-efficacy on a set of 6 competencies around practice transformation and quality improvement. A total of 68 students graduating in the first cohort responded to the competency questions. Area Health Education Center Scholars reported a significant increase in self-efficacy on the competencies Identify issues emerging in health care delivery such as accountable care organizations, medical homes, and health insurance exchanges; understand how to practice effectively within the organization and culture of the interprofessional team, practice setting, and local health care system, and use an electronic health record to retrieve relevant information and to document care. This study found that learners reported a significant increase in self-efficacy related to implementing practiced transformation.

Energy and water are interlinked and inseparable resources of vital importance to the survival and development of human society. Exploring the relationship between energy and water is of great practical significance for the sustainable development of resources. The uneven regional distribution of energy and water in China has exacerbated energy-related water shortages.

Clinical workplace learning is often suboptimal due to the dynamics of the clinical learning environment and several challenges encountered in clinical practice. At LUMC, clinical teachers introduced a novel blended learning program that included both the introduction of a Clinical Teaching Unit (CTU) and Small Private Online Course (SPOC). This study aimed to analyze the educational content and design of our educational interventions, by categorizing and comparing the dimensions of the learning program before and after the interventions.

Accurate receptor/ligand binding free energy calculations can greatly accelerate drug discovery by identifying highly potent ligands. By simulating the change from one compound structure to another, the relative binding free energy (RBFE) change can be calculated based on the theoretically rigorous free energy perturbation (FEP) method. However, existing FEP-RBFE approaches may face convergence challenges due to difficulties in simulating non-physical intermediate states, which can lead to increased computational costs to obtain the converged results.

Closed-loop transformation of raw materials into high-value-added products is highly desired for the sustainable development of the society but is seldom achieved. Here, a low-cost, solvent-free and "zero-waste" mechanochemical protocol is reported for the large-scale preparation of cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). This process ensures full utilization of raw materials, effectively reduces water consumption, and simplifies the operating process.
