A National Medical Response to Crisis World War II’s massive casualties were mitigated by lives saved as a result of medical care. Many the advances made would persist long after war conclud...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has sickened millions, killed hundreds of thousands, and utterly disrupted the daily lives billions people around world. In an effort to ameliorate this devastation, biomedical research complex allocated dollars scientists have initiated clinical trials in expedited understand, prevent, treat disease.

Vascular surgery in World War II has long been defined by DeBakey and Simeone's classic 1946 article describing arterial repair as exceedingly rare. They argued ligation was should be the standard surgical response to trauma war. We returned analyzed original records of military medical units housed National Archives other repositories addition consulting published accounts determine American practice vascular II. This research demonstrates a clear shift from occurring among surgeons last 6...
Abstract Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9)-based technology is currently the most flexible means to create targeted mutations by recombination or indel nonhomologous end joining. During mouse transgenesis, recombinant and alleles are often pursued simultaneously. Multiple can be formed in each animal significant genetic complexity that complicates CRISPR-Cas9 approach analysis. Currently, there no rapid methods measure...
In the first half of twentieth century, training American surgeons changed from an idiosyncratic, often isolated venture to a standardized, regulated, and mandated regimen in form surgical residency. Over three critical decades between 1930 1960, these residencies developed extraordinary, unique opportunity for few leading practitioners widespread, uniform requirement. This article explores transformation education United States, focusing on standardization dissemination during this key...
