Diversity in Cell Signaling Responses01:22

Diversity in Cell Signaling Responses

6.3K
The physiological function of a cell and cellular communication are outcomes of a range of extrinsic signals, intracellular signaling pathways, and cellular responses. No two cell types express the same repertoire of signaling components. Receptors are highly selective for their cognate ligands, but once activated, they can alter multiple cellular processes such as DNA transcription, protein synthesis, and metabolic activity. 
Graded and Abrupt Responses
Some signaling systems generate...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination02:55

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

89.9K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Inclusive Fitness00:57

Inclusive Fitness

35.9K
Most altruistic behavior—in which one animal helps another at a cost to themselves—occurs between relatives. Scientists think these altruistic behaviors evolved because they increase the inclusive fitness of the animal providing help.

Barriers to Effective Communication II01:21

Barriers to Effective Communication II

3.6K
The barriers to effective communication also include cultural barriers, semantic barriers, gender barriers, and time constraints.
Cultural barriers:
Differences in values, beliefs, religion, knowledge, and tradition can significantly impact communication. Awareness of nonverbal cues is critical, especially when conversing with a patient from a different culture. What appears appropriate in one culture may be inappropriate in another.
Semantic barriers:
As a result of their tendency to use...

Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.
Foundations of Community Mental Health Programs
Central to the success of community-based interventions is the...

Nursing Implementation01:15

Nursing Implementation

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Area of Science:

  • * Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education and faculty diversity.

Background:

  • * Underrepresented groups remain a small fraction of STEM professionals and faculty.
  • * A lack of postdoctoral and early-career support hinders faculty diversification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • * To describe the Pre-Professor Program (PREPP) as a model for faculty development.
  • * To outline PREPP's strategy for supporting diverse scholars in academic careers.

Main Methods:

  • * A semester-long virtual program for advanced doctoral students and postdoctoral scholars.
  • * Individualized mentorship focusing on teaching, research, service, and tenure-track applications.
  • * Exploration of faculty life at comprehensive, diverse institutions within the California State University system.

Main Results:

  • * The virtual format allowed program expansion across the entire California State University system.
  • * PREPP successfully immersed participants in faculty roles without geographical constraints.
  • * The program provides a scalable model for diverse faculty recruitment.

Conclusions:

  • * PREPP offers a viable pathway for increasing faculty diversity in STEM.
  • * Virtual programming enhances accessibility and reach for faculty development initiatives.
  • * The PREPP model can be adapted to support diverse applicants for tenure-track positions.
