Published: February 2024

Drug therapy is a central pillar in the provision of medical care. A significant number of doctor-patient encounters conclude with a prescription for a drug. These are subsequently followed by a pharmacist-patient interaction that ends with the dispensing of prescription drugs and/or a recommendation for an over-the-counter drug and other products. In Israel, the fields of medicine and pharmacy are highly regulated with extensive legislation.

Enhancing translational medical research through proof-of-concept services: clinicians' perspectives.

Sci Rep

Department of Military Medical Services, Faculty of Military Health Services, Naval Medical University, Shanghai, 200433, China.

Although the proof-of-concept (POC) phase is critical for the success of translational medical research (TMR), its use remains limited, and clinicians are frequently uncertain about how to seek assistance from POC teams when experiencing difficulties with TMR. Therefore, this study explored clinicians' awareness of POC and the supportive reference services offered by POC teams. We distributed an internet-based questionnaire to 702 clinicians who conducted TMR between August 2022 and March 2023.

Electronic address:

This study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the ethical, legal and social issues in human brain organoid research, with a view to different types of research and applications: in vitro research, transplantation into non-human animals, and biocomputing. Despite the academic and societal attention on the possibility that human brain organoids may be conscious, we have identified diverse issues in human brain organoid research and applications. To guide the complex terrain of human brain organoid research and applications, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates ethical, legal, and social perspectives is essential.

More Than Body Parts: A New Ethos of Anatomy Education.

Acad Med

October 2024

T.H. Champney is professor, Department of Cell Biology, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Miami, Florida; ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0507-1663.

A new ethos of anatomy education goes beyond the learning of body parts in the traditional curriculum. In the traditional curriculum, the focus of only providing information on the structure of the human body left certain learning opportunities overlooked, marginalized, or dismissed as irrelevant; thus, opportunities to foster and shape professional attributes in health care learners were lost. Furthermore, changes in curricula structures and reductions in anatomy teaching hours have necessitated a transformation in how anatomy education is perceived and delivered.

Biodiversity is crucial for maintaining ecosystem stability and achieving sustainable development. However, global biodiversity loss is a common challenge faced by most countries. Therefore, based on the data from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species and the Eora database, we used the multi-regional input-output (MRIO) model to calculate biodiversity loss in 188 countries.
