Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

29.1K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Bacterial Transformation01:33

Bacterial Transformation

60.2K
In 1928, bacteriologist Frederick Griffith worked on a vaccine for pneumonia, which is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. Griffith studied two pneumonia strains in mice: one pathogenic and one non-pathogenic. Only the pathogenic strain killed host mice.
Griffith made an unexpected discovery when he killed the pathogenic strain and mixed its remains with the live, non-pathogenic strain. Not only did the mixture kill host mice, but it also contained living pathogenic bacteria that...

Rates of Change01:20

Rates of Change

143
The rate of change is a central concept in mathematics that quantifies how one variable varies in response to another. It serves as a foundational tool in modeling dynamic systems across disciplines such as physics, biology, economics, and engineering. Understanding both average and instantaneous rates of change enables the analysis of behavior in functions that describe real-world phenomena.Average Rate of ChangeFor a function f(x) defined over an interval [x1,x2], the average rate of change...

Work Done During Volume Change01:17

Work Done During Volume Change

5.3K
In mechanics, work is done on an object when the force acting on it displaces the object. In thermodynamics, work done on a system can be estimated when the system's volume changes during any thermodynamic process.
Consider a gas confined to a cylinder fitted with a movable piston at one end. If the gas expands from volume V1 to volume V2, it exerts a force on the piston, such that the piston moves by a distance dr.
The work done by the gas on the piston can be expressed as

Net Change Theorem01:22

Net Change Theorem

80
The Net Change Theorem is a fundamental principle in calculus that establishes a direct relationship between a function’s rate of change and its accumulated change over an interval. Mathematically, it states that the definite integral of a function's derivative over a given interval [a,b] yields the net change in the original function:This theorem has significant applications in various real-world scenarios, including physics, economics, and engineering. A particularly useful application...

Le Chatelier's Principle: Changing Temperature02:19

Le Chatelier's Principle: Changing Temperature

35.7K
Consistent with the law of mass action, an equilibrium stressed by a change in concentration will shift to re-establish equilibrium without any change in the value of the equilibrium constant, K. When an equilibrium shifts in response to a temperature change, however, it is re-established with a different relative composition that exhibits a different value for the equilibrium constant.
To understand this phenomenon, consider the elementary reaction:

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Medical schools should adopt targeted curricular redesigns over sweeping system changes for undergraduate medical education. This approach, exemplified by a primary care track, offers a practical strategy for curriculum transformation.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Curriculum Development
  • Health Professions Education

Background:

  • Medical schools often face pressure to undertake large-scale curriculum reform.
  • Whole-system changes can be complex, resource-intensive, and challenging to implement effectively.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To advocate for circumscribed curricular redesign in undergraduate medical education.
  • To present a case study of implementing focused change within a medical school curriculum.
  • To discuss the benefits and drawbacks of incremental versus global curriculum transformation.

Main Methods:

  • The authors present a commentary based on their experience at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University (AMS).
  • They describe the implementation of a specific program: the Primary Care-Population Medicine track.
  • The commentary analyzes this implementation as an example of circumscribed change.

Main Results:

  • Circumscribed curricular redesign, like the Primary Care-Population Medicine track, can be a viable alternative to wholesale system changes.
  • This approach allows for focused innovation and potentially easier implementation.
  • The authors highlight both the advantages and disadvantages of this strategy.

Conclusions:

  • Medical schools can benefit from pursuing more focused, circumscribed solutions for curricular redesign.
  • Incremental changes may serve as effective first steps or even ultimate solutions for curriculum transformation.
  • The insights from AMS are generalizable to other institutions and innovation types.
