    Abstract In response to changing learner needs, our institution launched a new translational curriculum wherein basic sciences and clinical skills were integrated, longitudinal patient care experiences provided, and earlier opportunities in specialty fields introduced to better inform residency program decisions. Medical students taking the breast imaging elective were enrolled in a breast imaging immersive experience designed to meet the School of Medicine's core competencies. In focusing the elective on a narrow range of specialized topics and skills, we labeled this experience the Breast Imaging Boot Camp. Outcome data from March 6, 2017, to April 26, 2019, have been analyzed for this report. The modifications made to the elective include: e-mailing a detailed orientation document to students prior to the start of the rotation; assigning students to diagnostic, procedural, and screening roles; the attendance of students at introductory radiology symposia; students' weekly attendance at institutional multidisciplinary and divisional breast radiologic-pathologic correlation conferences; student self-study assignments using faculty-vetted resources; student participation in breast biopsy simulation and small parts ultrasound laboratories; the development of a student-centric radiology educational website; and student-directed publishing of digital case files. Medical student feedback and course analytics indicated superior course evaluation scores reinforced by narrative feedback. In website domain utilization data, the breast file domain is the most viewed subspecialty domain. The Breast Imaging Boot Camp is a successful curriculum. Its novelty lies in both its integrated approach to medical student core competencies and its clinician educators' use of today's student-favored teaching tools.

    Abstract Pharmacological inhibition of protein kinases induces adaptive reprogramming of tumor cell regulatory networks by altering expression of genes that regulate signaling, including protein kinases. Adaptive responses are dependent on transcriptional changes resulting from remodeling of enhancer and promoter landscapes. Enhancer and promoter remodeling in response to targeted kinase inhibition is controlled by changes in open chromatin state and by activity of specific transcription factors, such as c-MYC. This review focuses on the dynamic plasticity of protein kinase expression of the tumor cell kinome and the resulting adaptive resistance to targeted kinase inhibition. Plasticity of the functional kinome has been shown in patient window trials where triple-negative and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive breast cancer patient tumors were characterized by RNAseq after biopsies before and after 1 week of therapy. The expressed kinome changed dramatically during drug treatment, and these changes in kinase expression were shown in cell lines and xenografts in mice to be correlated with adaptive tumor cell drug resistance. The dynamic transcriptional nature of the kinome also differs for inhibitors targeting different kinase signaling pathways (e.g., BRAF-MEK-ERK versus PI3K-AKT) that are commonly activated in cancers. Heterogeneity arising from differences in gene regulation and mutations represents a challenge to therapeutic durability and prevention of clinical drug resistance with drug-tolerant tumor cell populations developing and persisting through treatment. We conclude that understanding the heterogeneity of kinase expression at baseline and in response to therapy is imperative for development of combinations and timing intervals of therapies making interventions durable.

    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic profoundly disrupted, and, out of necessity, accelerated innovation of research and development of medical countermeasures to combat COVID-19. Although countermeasures were developed with unprecedented speed as a result of decades of long-term Federal investments in platform technologies and existing partnerships, the pandemic also revealed gaps in our preparedness and response capabilities that threaten our readiness posture. Challenges include limited federal funding that hinders sustainable development and manufacturing of, and equitable access to, medical countermeasures. Here we discuss lessons learned from the development and production efforts of medical countermeasures, such as vaccines and immunotherapeutics, to combat COVID-19. This commentary highlights some of the key gaps and challenges that must be addressed to ensure preparation for future outbreaks caused by viruses of pandemic potential.

    Abstract COVID-19 epidemiology and product landscapes have changed considerably since onset of the pandemic. Safe and effective vaccines and therapeutics are available, but the continual emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants introduce limitations in our ability to prevent and treat disease. Project NextGen is a collaboration between the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR), and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, that is leveraging public-private partnerships to address gaps in the nation's COVID-19 vaccine and therapeutic capabilities. Targeted investments will advance promising next-generation candidates through the most difficult phases of clinical development to encourage further private sector interest for later stage development and commercial availability. New commercial vaccines and therapeutics that are more durable and effective across variants will improve our fight against COVID-19 and transform our response to future threats.

    Abstract The human kinome, with more than 500 proteins, is crucial for cell signaling and disease. Yet, about one-third of kinases lack in-depth study. The Data and Resource Generating Center for Understudied Kinases has developed multiple resources to address this challenge including creation of a heavy amino acid peptide library for parallel reaction monitoring and quantitation of protein kinase expression, use of understudied kinases tagged with a miniTurbo-biotin ligase to determine interaction networks by proximity-dependent protein biotinylation, NanoBRET probe development for screening chemical tool target specificity in live cells, characterization of small molecule chemical tools inhibiting understudied kinases, and computational tools for defining kinome architecture. These resources are available through the Dark Kinase Knowledgebase, supporting further research into these understudied protein kinases.

    Abstract The physical and optical properties of coatings deposited using physical vapor deposition techniques exhibit changes during post deposition annealing. Optical properties including the index of refraction and spectral transmission vary when coatings are annealed. Physical and mechanical properties such as thickness, density, and stress are also impacted by annealing. In this paper, we study the source of these changes by examining the impact of 150-500°C annealing on

    Abstract Dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra exist in a persistent state of vulnerability resulting from high baseline oxidative stress, high-energy demand, and broad unmyelinated axonal arborisations. Impairments in the storage of dopamine compound this stress because of cytosolic reactions that transform the vital neurotransmitter into an endogenous neurotoxicant, and this toxicity is thought to contribute to the dopamine neuron degeneration that occurs Parkinson's disease. We have previously identified synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2C (SV2C) as a modifier of vesicular dopamine function, demonstrating that genetic ablation of SV2C in mice results in decreased dopamine content and evoked dopamine release in the striatum. Here, we adapted a previously published in vitro assay utilising false fluorescent neurotransmitter 206 (FFN206) to visualise how SV2C regulates vesicular dopamine dynamics and determined that SV2C promotes the uptake and retention of FFN206 within vesicles. In addition, we present data indicating that SV2C enhances the retention of dopamine in the vesicular compartment with radiolabelled dopamine in vesicles isolated from immortalised cells and from mouse brain. Further, we demonstrate that SV2C enhances the ability of vesicles to store the neurotoxicant 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP

    Abstract Objectives: Weight cutting is thought to offer a competitive advantage in wrestling. Dehydration has deleterious effects on physical and cognitive function, which may increase the risk of injury. The purpose of the study was to investigate whether the degree of weight cutting was associated with injury risk.
    Methods: Data were collected prospectively in a cohort of collegiate wrestlers over seven seasons. Changes in weight, body fat and lean mass were measured during the preseason, at midseason and before competition. Cox proportional-hazard ratios were calculated for risk of in-competition injury.
    Results: Among 67 unique division 1 collegiate wrestlers (163 athlete seasons), there were 53 unique injuries affecting 46 athletes. There was no difference in absolute weight change, per cent weight change, per cent body fat change or per cent lean mass change between injured and non-injured wrestlers from the preseason to midseason measurements. From midseason to competition weight, change in body weight was -7.0%±3.2% (-5.3 kg±2.6) in injured athletes compared with -5.7%±3.3% (-4.3 kg±2.5) in non-injured athletes. For every kilogram of body weight lost, wrestlers had a 14% increased hazard of injury (HR 1.14, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.25, p=0.004). For every 1% of body weight lost, wrestlers had an 11% increased hazard of injury (HR 1.11, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.19, p=0.005).
    Conclusion: Rapid weight cutting was associated with a higher risk of in-competition injuries in division 1 collegiate wrestlers. For every per cent in body weight lost, wrestlers had an 11% increased hazard of injury during competition.
