Medical students have a unique opportunity to advocate for educational policies that promote best practices in undergraduate medical education. At the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth, students play a crucial role in the development of medical education policies. This article describes two innovative, inclusive, and effective approaches to increase student engagement: (1) restructuring Medical Education Subcommittees to diversify student perspectives and (2) including students in a values-based design thinking approach to the development of new academic advancement and promotion and conduct policies. Through deliberate participation, medical students gain valuable skills that can be applied as future educators and academic leaders.

Phytochemicals, which are bioactive compounds contained in fruits, vegetables, and teas, have a positive effect on human health by having anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticarcinogenic effects. Several studies have highlighted the ability of bioactive compounds to activate key cellular enzymes associated with important signaling pathways related to cell division and proliferation, as well as their role in inflammatory and immunological responses. Some phytochemicals are associated with increased proliferation, differentiation, and expression of markers related to osteogenesis, bone formation, and mineralization by activating various signaling pathways.
