Analyzing genomic data across populations is central to understanding the role of genetic factors in health and disease. Successful sharing relies on public support, which requires attention whether people around world are willing donate their that then subsequently shared with others for research. However, studies such perceptions geographically limited do not enable comparison. This paper presents results from a very large survey attitudes toward sharing. Data 36,268 individuals 22...
Abstract Background Public trust is central to the collection of genomic and health data sustainability research. To merit trust, those involved in collecting sharing need demonstrate they are trustworthy. However, it unclear what measures most likely this. Methods We analyse ‘Your DNA, Your Say’ online survey public perspectives on including responses from 36,268 individuals across 22 low-, middle- high-income countries, gathered 15 languages. examine how participants perceived relative...

As hospitals’ interest in nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs) grows, their leadership is eager to know how medical staffing privileging policies for these professionals compare peer hospitals. This study assesses the extent of variation four clinical areas examines whether differences are associated with state scope practice laws NPs PAs. We also examine relationship NP PA each other. Our analysis finds no evidence that hospital practice, indeed within-state more...
Physician assistants (PAs) are often suggested as a partial solution to predicted primary care workforce shortages, but declining proportion of PAs entering practice. Policy efforts have focused on increasing PA supply, low labor market demand might be constricting the pipeline.In this descriptive, cross-sectional study, we compare and specialty job postings each other occupied positions. Job posting data for 2014 from leading analytics firm.Only 18% were in care, compared with 27% The that...
The project reported here evaluated the effectiveness of nutrition education at food pantries. We offer best practices for future Extension-based programming with this clientele.
