Improving Risk Assessment for Chest Pain in the Emergency Department

We are studying how to better care for people who come to the emergency room with chest pain. Right now, doctors use a tool called the HEART score to decide how serious the chest pain is and what tests the patient might need. But for patients who are in the "middle risk" group, it's hard to tell if they really need more heart tests or not. This can lead to too many tests and overcrowding in the hospital. Our study looks at new ways to help doctors decide which of these patients actually need more testing, so they can give the right care more quickly and avoid unnecessary delays or tests.

Funds of Knowledge, Intersectionality, and Transformative Resistance: A Portrait of a Chinese Immigrant Teacher

Immigrant teachers-who make up approximately 8% of the American K-12 teaching workforce-bring valuable diversity in terms of race, ethnicity, language, and religion. However, they also face unique challenges in addition to the systemic difficulties affecting all teachers in the U.S. education system. These challenges include navigating restrictive immigration policies, credential recognition barriers, hiring discrimination, limited career advancement, and difficulties adapting to curricula and school environments as non-native English speakers. Furthermore, they may experience racial, ethnic, and linguistic discrimination from students, parents, colleagues, and administrators, as well as structural discrimination embedded in institutional policies at the school, state, and federal levels. While there is extensive research on the discrimination faced by minoritized students and teachers of color in U.S. schools and by immigrant teachers of color in international schooling contexts, little attention has been given to the specific discriminatory experiences of immigrant teachers within the United States.
