Abstract

An important prerequisite to changes in an educational program's predominant philosophy and culture is systematic faculty development to begin and sustain the evolution. The authors describe how one nursing school implemented a faculty development program with the goal of infusing critical thinking strategies into courses throughout the curriculum.

Myco-Ed: Mycological curriculum for education and discovery.

Fungi are important and hyperdiverse organisms, yet chronically understudied. Most fungal clades have no reference genomes, impeding our understanding of their ecosystem functions and use as solutions in health and biotechnology. Also, opportunities for training in fungal biology and genomics are lacking, creating a bottleneck that hinders the recruitment and cultivation of a talented future mycological workforce. To address these issues, we developed Myco-Ed, an educational program offering training and scientific contributions through genome sequencing and analysis. Myco-Ed empowers students to pursue careers in fungal biology while improving fungal resources. Myco-Ed has been piloted at 12 institutions (15 classrooms) ranging from online e-Campuses to R1 universities, resulting in hundreds of fungal observations and many new high-quality reference genomes.

Improving drug response with pharmacogenomics.

Adverse drug reactions, which in the USA are estimated to account for 100,000 hospitalizations annually, could be halved by the implementation of personalized medicine, but medical schools must adapt to change, say researchers in Israel.
