The role of civil society organizations in the institutionalization of indigenous medicine in Bolivia
This article traces the constellation of forces that led to the institutionalization of indigenous medicine in Bolivia. It identifies three factors contributing to this health policy change. The first factor is the crystallization of a strong indigenous movement fighting for the recognition of cultural rights through the foundation of civil society organizations. Second is the rise to power of Evo Morales, the first Latin American president of indigenous origin, who has promoted multicultural policies, formally supported through the promulgation of a new constitution. Lastly is the influence of the global acceptance of alt...

A Plan for Useful and Timely Family Medicine and Primary Care Research.
Abstract BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Our nation's health care system is changing. Nowhere is this more evident than in primary care, where fundamental improvements are necessary if we are to achieve the Triple Aim. Such improvements are possible if we can put useful and timely information into the hands of stakeholders to enable practical decision-making. To do this, family medicine and primary care researchers need to (1) build on our substantial current research foundation, (2) increase the relevance and pace of our research, (3) reconceive the research workforce to engage new partners, (4) disseminate findings m...

The emergency medicine research priority setting partnership
Emergency medicine is such a broad specialty, and the research underway and planned in emergency medicine such a vast undertaking, that we need to focus on the most important research questions to answer the most pressing clinical dilemmas. Funding for research is limited, and competition for money is fierce. It therefore is imperative that as a specialty we define the most important questions, to find the answers, to improve the clinical care our patients receive. The people who should be involved in defining these questions must include the clinicians working in our emergency departments, and our patients and their carer...

Challenging Regeneration to Transform Medicine
This article describes a Regenerative Medicine Grand Challenge that the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine recently shared with the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy in response to a White House call to action in scientific disciplines suggesting that the development of "universal donor tissues" should be designated as a Regenerative Medicine Grand Challenge. Such a designation would raise national awareness of the potential of regenerative medicine to address the unmet needs of many diseases and would stimulate the scientific partnerships and investments in technology needed to expedite this goal...

An Emergency Medicine –Primary Care Partnership to Improve Rural Population Health: Expanding the Role of Emergency Medicine
Publication date: Available online 9 August 2017 Source:Annals of Emergency Medicine Author(s): Margaret B. Greenwood-Ericksen, Renuka Tipirneni, Mahshid Abir The health of rural America is failing and our traditional approaches have proved ineffective at improving health in rural communities. Rural populations are now a health disparity population, facing higher mortality rates for the 5 leading causes of death compared with their urban counterparts. We must generate novel, rural-specific approaches to solve this challenge—and there is a clear role for the field of emergency medicine. Building on emergency departmentsâ...

Functional Medicine
Using the functional medicine rubric in physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R), a physiatrist can capitalize on addressing the root causes and downstream effects in patients with chronic diseases. Similar to the International Classification of Function model in rehabilitation, the functional medicine model uses biopsychosocial understanding with a systems biology approach to find fulcrum points to create the biggest impact on health care. Given the position of rehabilitation medicine with the type and location of patients, both functional medicine and PM&R would benefit from a mutual partnership.

A Model Partnership: Mentoring Underrepresented Students in Medicine (URiM) in Emergency Medicine
Introduction: Creating a racially and ethnically diverse workforce remains a challenge for medical specialties, including emergency medicine (EM). One area to examine is a partnership between a predominantly white institution (PWI) with a historically black college and university (HBCU) to determine whether this partnership would increase the number of underrepresented in medicine (URiM) in EM who are from a HBCU.Methods: Twenty years ago Emory Department of Emergency Medicine began its collaboration with Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) to provide guidance to MSM students who were interested in EM. Since its inception, ...

Clinical Redeployment of an Academic Family Medicine Department in an Early, Severe COVID-19 Pandemic in the Bronx, NY
Discussion: During a pandemic surge, academic family medicine departments have an important role in expanding hospitalist services and redesigning primary care services. The ability to reconfigure work to meet unprecedented demands on health care was facilitated by family medicine's broad scope of practice including training in hospital medicine, interpersonal communication, behavioral health, care across settings, collaborative partnerships with specialists, and adaptability to communities' needs.

Breaking Borders: How Barriers to Global Mobility Hinder International Partnerships in Academic Medicine
This article describes the authors’ personal experiences of collaborating across international borders in academic research. International collaboration in academic medicine is one of the most important ways by which research and innovation develop globally. However, the intersections among colonialism, academic medicine, and global health research have created a neocolonial narrative that perpetuates inequalities in global health partnerships. The authors critically examine the visa process as an example of a racist practice to show how the challenges of blocked mobility increase inequality and thwart research endeavors...

European Master in Disaster Medicine: Impact Analysis on Students' Professional Career
As a discipline, disaster medicine has become extremely important in the recent past, after the increase in mass casualty incidents and the spread of terrorism and of public health emergencies. Lessons learned from recent international complex emergencies suggest that health care professionals do not feel sufficiently competent or knowledgeable in this area, although many would welcome specific training. The medical scientific community has become very sensitive toward disaster education and has been working to improve teaching and training standards in this field. The European Master in Disaster Medicine (EMDM) is a II-le...

Standardization as situation-specific achievement: Regulatory diversity and the production of value in intercontinental collaborations in stem cell medicine
Publication date: December 2014 Source:Social Science & Medicine, Volume 122 Author(s): Achim Rosemann The article examines the role and challenges of scientific self-governance and standardization in inter-continental clinical research partnerships in stem cell medicine. The paper shows that – due to a high level of regulatory diversity – the enactment of internationally recognized standards in multi-country stem cell trials is a complex and highly situation-specific achievement. Standardization is imposed on a background of regulatory, institutional and epistemic-cultural heterogeneity, and implemented excl...

Patient Partnerships Transforming Sleep Medicine Research and Clinical Care: Perspectives from the Sleep Apnea Patient-Centered Outcomes Network
Due to an ongoing recent evolution in practice, sleep medicine as a discipline has been compelled to respond to the converging pressures to reduce costs, improve outcomes, and demonstrate value. Patient “researchers” are uniquely placed to participate in initiatives that address the specific needs and priorities of patients and facilitate the identification of interventions with high likelihood of acceptance by the “customer.” To date, however, the “patient voice” largely has been lacking in processes affecting relevant policies and practice guidelines. In this Special Report, patient an...
