Confirmation Biases01:31

Confirmation Biases

8.2K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

pre-mRNA Processing02:01

pre-mRNA Processing

57.5K
In eukaryotic cells, transcripts made by RNA polymerase are modified and processed before exiting the nucleus. Unprocessed RNA is called precursor mRNA or pre-mRNA to distinguish it from mature mRNA.
Once about 20-40 ribonucleotides have been joined together by RNA polymerase, a group of enzymes adds a “cap” to the 5’ end of the growing transcript. In this process, a 5’ phosphate is replaced by modified guanosine that has a methyl group attached to it (7-Methyl...

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

56.1K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Initiation of Translation02:33

Initiation of Translation

39.0K
Initiating translation is complex because it involves multiple molecules. Initiator tRNA, ribosomal subunits, and eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are all required to assemble on the initiation codon of mRNA. This process consists of several steps that are mediated by different eIFs.
First, the initiator tRNA must be selected from the pool of elongator tRNAs by eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2). The initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAi) has conserved sequence elements including modified bases at...

Homologous Recombination02:31

Homologous Recombination

63.0K
The basic reaction of homologous recombination (HR) involves two chromatids that contain DNA sequences sharing a significant stretch of identity. One of these sequences uses a strand from another as a template to synthesize DNA in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. The final product is a novel amalgamation of the two substrates. To ensure an accurate recombination of sequences, HR is restricted to the S and G2 phases of the cell cycle. At these stages, the DNA has been replicated already and the...

Meristems and Plant Growth

49.5K
Plants grow throughout their lives; this is called indeterminate growth, and it distinguishes plants from most animals. Although certain parts of plants stop growing (e.g., leaves and flowers), others grow continuously—like roots and stems.

    PubMed
    Summary

    This study identified eight US midwifery fellowships, primarily in the West, focusing on new certified nurse-midwives. Findings offer baseline data for evaluating these programs and their role in advanced midwifery education.

    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Education
    • Midwifery Practice
    • Postgraduate Training

    Background:

    • The landscape of postgraduate training for nurse-midwives in the US is not well-defined.
    • Understanding existing midwifery fellowship programs is crucial for assessing educational pathways.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify current United States midwifery fellowships.
    • To determine the key attributes of these identified programs.

    Main Methods:

    • An adapted internet search methodology was employed.
    • Search terms and program attributes were systematically identified and refined.
    • Two investigators conducted independent searches and reconciled findings.

    Main Results:

  • Eight midwifery fellowship programs were identified through public website searches; no programs used the term "residency."
  • Programs were predominantly located in the western US and designed for newly graduated certified nurse-midwives.
  • Fellowships were operated by universities or birth centers, with varied clinical settings and an average length of 12 months.
  • Conclusions:

    • This research provides foundational data on publicly accessible US midwifery fellowships.
    • Identified program attributes can inform stakeholders regarding the role and potential oversight of these fellowships for midwifery graduates.
