Published: October 2024

This article offers an up-to-date overview of resources tailored for dermatology residents in the United States preparing for their board certification exams. We have assembled a comprehensive list of exam preparation resources categorized by cost, alongside recommendations from attending and resident physicians regarding the most effective resources for each exam. Although examinations are only one facet of the training involved in becoming a competent dermatologist, these exams help residents focus on learning crucial aspects of medicine. This review aims to furnish a concise summary of available resources for dermatology residents, organized by cost. The average cost of a paid dermatology question bank resource in this review was approximately $279, reflecting the need for review resources for board exam preparation that can fit a resident physician's budget or are free to use.

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent the largest family of plasma membrane proteins targeted for therapeutic development. For decades, GPCRs were investigated as monomeric entities during analysis of their pharmacology or signaling and during drug development. However, a considerable body of evidence now indicates that GPCRs function as dimers or higher-order oligomers.

Background And Aims: The currently recognized diversity of pollination strategies requires pollination syndromes to be updated. Described a decade ago, kleptomyiophily is a deceptive pollination system in which plants exploit the nutrient-seeking behavior of females of kleptoparasitic flies (Chloropidae and Milichiidae) by olfactorily mimicking their insect host. Such a pollination system was already hypothesized for pollination by biting midges (Ceratopogonidae) but has never been formalized.
