Entry of US Medical School Graduates Into Family Medicine Residencies: 2013--2014.
Abstract BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This is the 33rd annual report prepared by the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) that reports retrospectively the percentage of graduates from US MD and DO-granting medical schools who entered an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-accredited family medicine residency program and covers the period between July 2013 and June 2014. Approximately 8.5% of the 18,384 graduates of US MD-granting medical schools entered family medicine in 2014.

How Medical Schools Can Encourage Students’ Interest in Family Medicine
The discipline of family medicine is essential to improving quality and reducing the cost of care in an effective health care system. Yet the slow growth of this field has not kept pace with national demand. In their study, Rodríguez and colleagues report on the influence of the social environment and academic discourses on medical students’ identification with family medicine in four countries—the United Kingdom, Canada, France, and Spain. They conclude that these factors—the social environment and discursive activity within the medical school—influence students’ specialty choices. While the discourses in Canad...

Developing an Integrative and Behavioral Medicine Fellowship (Karen Welch MD)
The knowledge and communication skills needed to provide exceptional patient-centered care are particularly emphasized in Family Medicine training as applied as a synergy of Integrative Medicine and Behavioral Medicine. Mastering them is the work of a lifetime career in medicine. Basic skills in these areas are offered and practiced in residency training at our program at UTMB-Health. This is done through a configuration of an on-line Integrative Medicine in Residency didactics and robust curriculum in applied Behavioral Health, both which have been established for many years. To provide further mastery of these very impor...

Bio Intelligence: 5 Ways the Age of Information Will Democratize Modern Medicine
On July 13th 2013 at 7:15 pm I was sitting in a Wegman’s café eating dinner with two startup founders I was mentoring when I received a phone call from a dermatologist. He had removed a mole from my 10-year-old daughter’s arm a week earlier. My daughter and my six-year-old son sat at the table next to us chatting, eating, and playing games on their tablets. With just three words –“This is bad”—our entire world changed. We never saw it coming, we had no information, we were immediately at the mercy of strangers, and the normal we had known was irrevocably shattered in an instant, never to return. Within two wee...

Insurance systems and reimbursement concerning research and development of regenerative medicine in Japan.
Abstract In Japan, the Act on the Safety of Regenerative Medicine and the Pharmaceuticals, Medical Devices and Other Therapeutic Products Act were enacted in November 2014, creating a new framework for clinical research and products related to regenerative medicine. Together with these regulatory frameworks, new insurance procedures were created for handling regenerative medicine in Japan. For developing regenerative medicine in Japan, understanding medical insurance greatly influences funding and venture success, particularly in the stages between clinical research and market launch. The study aimed to identify t...

Family Medicine Research in the United States From the late 1960s Into the Future.
Abstract BACKGROUND: When the new field of family medicine research began a half century ago, multiple individuals and organizations emphasized that research was a key mission. Since the field's inception, there have been notable research successes for which family medicine organizations, researchers, and leaders-assisted by federal and state governments and private foundations-can take credit. Research is a requirement for family medicine residency programs but not individual residents, and multiple family medicine departments offer research training in various forms for learners at all levels, including research...

Sleep Medicine in Saudi Arabia
The practice of sleep medicine in Saudi Arabia began in the mid to late 1990s. Since its establishment, this specialty has grown, and the number of specialists has increased. Based on the available data, sleep disorders are prevalent among the Saudi population, and the demand for sleep medicine services is expected to increase significantly. Currently, two training programs are providing structured training and certification in sleep medicine in this country. Recently, clear guidelines for accrediting sleep medicine specialists and technologists were approved. Nevertheless, numerous obstacles hamper the progress of this sp...

Regenerative Medicine Venturing at the University-Industry Boundary: Implications for Institutions, Entrepreneurs, and Industry.
Authors: Bock AJ, Johnson D Abstract Regenerative medicine research at university laboratories has outpaced commercial activity. Legal, regulatory, funding, technological, and operational uncertainty have slowed market entry of regenerative medicine treatments. As a result, commercial development has often been led by entrepreneurial ventures rather than large biopharma firms. Translating regenerative medicine across the university-industry boundary links academic scientists, technology transfer organizations, funders, and entrepreneurs. Conflicting motivations among the participants may significantly hinder these ...

117in * should personalised medicine be funded in countries with limited resources?
Personalised medicine implies that treatment is based on molecular analysis of an individual tumour specimen. A biomarker may define groups of patients who can benefit from a specific treatment, such as the Estrogen Receptor and HER2 in breast cancer, B-RAF mutation in melanoma and EGFR and ALK mutation in lung cancer. Large clinical trials support treatments based on these tests but whether they should be used in countries of limited resources depends on their cost-effectiveness compared to other potential use of limited resources for health-care. ER and tamoxifen and HER2 and trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy for breast ca...

Defining “Faculty” in Academic Medicine: Responding to the Challenges of a Changing Environment
Academic medicine in the United States is at a crossroads. There are many drivers behind this, including health care reform, decreased federal research funding, a refined understanding of adult learning, and the emergence of disruptive innovations in medicine, science, and education. As faculty members are at the core of all academic activities, the definition of “faculty” in academic medicine must align with the expectations of institutions engaged in patient care, research, and education. Faculty members’ activities have changed and continue to evolve. Academic health centers must therefore define new rules of enga...

2015 proceedings of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's State of the Science in Transfusion Medicine symposium.
Abstract On March 25 and 26, 2015, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute sponsored a meeting on the State of the Science in Transfusion Medicine on the National Institutes of Health (NIH) campus in Bethesda, Maryland, which was attended by a diverse group of 330 registrants. The meeting's goal was to identify important research questions that could be answered in the next 5 to 10 years and which would have the potential to transform the clinical practice of transfusion medicine. These questions could be addressed by basic, translational, and/or clinical research studies and were focused on four areas: the ...

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...
