The transition from collective to single-cell invasion in metastatic tumors has been regarded as the consequence of oncogenic drivers in concert with extracellular triggers received from the tumor microenvironment. In this issue, Yoon and colleagues (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202308080) have identified an epigenetic program by which collective niches release laminin-332 and thereby cause the detachment and invasion of fully individualized tumor cells.

Aim: To evaluate the impact of a participatory, action-oriented implementation study, guided by the integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services framework, for optimising pain care processes in a tertiary paediatric emergency department.
Design: Hybrid type 3 implementation effectiveness.
Methods: A collaborative appraisal of the context and culture of pain care informed two interdependent action cycles: Enabling nurse-initiated analgesia and involving families in pain care.

Background: In the aftermath of an adverse event, the first priority is to provide care for the patient, known as the first victim. However, the experiences of healthcare professionals (HCPs) involved in these events, known as "second victims", have been largely overlooked. This review aims to consolidate existing knowledge on second victim syndrome (SVS), explore its unique implications for neuro-ophthalmologists, and suggest support strategies to increase awareness and meet the needs of affected colleagues.
