Addressing the Mental Health Crisis: Why Personalized Digital Solutions Are Essential To Meet Growing Demand
The following is a guest article by Byron Crowe, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Solera Demand for mental services has never been higher, and an ongoing shortage of psychiatrists and psychologists is preventing millions of Americans from timely access to mental health services. And the timing couldn’t be worse — findings from Solera Health’s recent Mental Health Index, a nationally representative survey of over 3,000 U.S. adults, found that 42% of Americans continue to be bothered by symptoms of anxiety and depression, a staggering figure that remains substantially elevated from pre-pandemic numbers. Moreover, these sym...

Ensuring Fairness in Medical Education Assessment
This study takes a first step in centering the margins as we as medical educators grow our understanding of the dynamics of promoting fairness in assessment. Future studies should explore feedback with intentional inclusion and involvement of diverse students, teachers, and researchers at every stage of the research process from conceptualization through dissemination and application of the new learning. We thank our participants for their time and candor discussing this sensitive topic and the Group on Educational Affairs for funding our work. Thank you for your time and attention and the focus that you’ll put on th...

Healthcare Organizations at Risk: BYOD and Mobile Devices are Increasing Cybersecurity Concerns
The following is a guest article by Kern Smith, Mobile Security Expert at Zimperium The healthcare industry has been transforming radically over the past decade with the common goal of improving the way healthcare is delivered to patients. In the last few years alone, we’ve watched as healthcare organizations have quickly become mobile-powered businesses with the migration to electronic health records, patients increasingly using mobile apps to view test results, schedule appointments, contact their care provider, and even control their medical devices. Although this shift has brought many advantages such as more accurat...

Continuous work coverage in health care: challenges and solutions
Two scourges of 24 x 7 x 365 coverage may be lost on-the-job sleep and soured on-the-job peace for workers, especially for health care workers. Traditionally, attending physicians have had the privilege of call rooms while providing coverage for overnight health care services. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education expanded that privilege to resident Read more… Continuous work coverage in health care: challenges and solutions originally appeared in KevinMD.com.

Bridging the Representation Gap in Biomedical Research
“We hope that students come out of our program feeling like they’re part of a community. Many of us feel inadequate or struggle in some way during graduate school—it can be a challenging time. I want to build a community that our students can always come back to for support,” says Elana Ehrlich, Ph.D., the co-director of the Bridges to the Doctorate Research Training Program (B2D) at Towson University in Towson, Maryland, alongside Michelle Snyder, Ph.D.. The Towson B2D is one of several NIGMS-supported B2Ds, which are dedicated to developing a diverse pool of well-trained biomedical scientists who will transiti...

The Importance of Patient Portal Usability
The following is a guest article by Dr. Bruce Bassi, Advisory Board Member at CharmHealth Most patients have almost certainly received an invitation to join their electronic medical record communication system, or portal for their particular doctor’s office. Clinicians have their own opinions about medical record systems, but what about patients? Typically, users log into their portal with one specific purpose, then log off, and do not wish to spend too much time engaging in a health portal system. If the system is too cumbersome or difficult to use, it would reduce engagement and not achieve its intended purpose. The pr...

Academics Weigh In On How To Bring Down Trump
By MIKE MAGEE This week, as a fourth indictment came due, a tragic Donald Trump headed back to social media, digging himself into a hole that will eventually lead to some personal hell. But before Donald Trump, there was William Frederick Kohler. He made his appearance on the American stage on February 28, 1995, an historian who had just completed his “Great Work” – The Guilt and Innocence of Hitler’s Germany. He was odd and dark and duplicitous. His life’s work was ready to go. All that was left was to write the introduction to his book. Instead his attention was diverted, as he followed his impulse to...

How Automated Lineage Improves Healthcare Data
The following is a guest article by Ernie Ostic, Chief Evangelist at Manta The healthcare industry creates a vast amount of data each year — roughly 30% of worldwide data — the bulk of which must conform with regulatory standards. That data lives in a complex and evolving ecosystem, integrated with multiple applications and infrastructures, creating countless dependencies. Between the volume of data and the web of interconnected systems, those dependencies remain hidden from most users in a “black box” of sorts. Without insight into the inner workings of their own flow of information, most healthcare organizations...

Closing the Gap: Why Healthcare Needs More Gender Diversity in Leadership
The following is a guest article by Dr. Erica Barnell, MD, PhD, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer at Geneoscopy Women comprise 70% of the healthcare workforce and 59% of medical, biomedical, and health sciences graduates, yet are the minority at leadership levels — holding only 25% of senior executive roles. As a result, the lack of women in significant decision-making positions is evident. According to U.S. Census estimates, no single ethnic or racial group will represent a majority of the U.S. population by 2055. The potential for more positive patient care experiences, greater innovation, and improved organizatio...

Outpatient Vascular Care: Good, bad or ugly?
BY ANISH KOKA Filling in the holes of recent stories in the New York Times, and Propublica on the outpatient care of patients with peripheral arterial disease Most have gotten used to egregiously bad coverage of current events that fills the pages of today’s New York Times, but even by their now very low standards a recent telling of a story about peripheral artery disease was very bad. The scintillating allegation by Katie Thomas, Jessica Silver-Greenberg and Robert Gebeloff is that “medical device makers are bankrolling doctors to perform artery clearing procedures that can lead to amputations...

No, AI won ’t kill creativity
Recently, I had a conversation with a well-known illustrator friend who was expressing his discontent about artificial intelligence. As our conversation escalated online, several creative professionals joined in, lamenting the supposed death of art, creativity, and, consequently, our livelihoods. creativity, nounthe ability to produce or use original and unusual ideas I added my two cents that AI should not be perceived as competition, but rather as a tool to align with our times. I argued that ChatGPT wouldn’t transform anyone into a journalist, just as Midjourney wouldn’t make me a graphic designer, becau...
