The purpose of this study is to examine pre-service teachers' meaning making and processing of experiences in the course of their individual processes of professionalization in the context of an experiential cross-cultural teacher education program called "Tricontinental Teacher Training (TTT)". The study aims at elucidating the role of uncertainty and dealing with uncertainty in new cultural and institutional contexts.

This study recruits participants who receive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment for their depression. We investigate how brain rhythms change during the treatment to better understand how TMS affects the brain.
Core concepts within disciplines of science have allowed educators to teach the most foundational and critical knowledge efficiently, and students to obtain essential skills and knowledge required for a given discipline. Recent decades have seen many science disciplines applying and confirming the benefits of core concepts. However, there is limited research on the core concepts of healthcare administration and leadership, especially within pharmacy. Consequently, the lack of consensus on core concepts prevents consistency among training programs teaching pharmacy administration and leadership (PAL). Given the increasing value of didactic training for PAL and attributes within training programs such as MS degrees for pharmacy, a set of core concepts must be well defined to assist with didactic PAL training. In the world of rapidly evolving medical services, technologies, and policies, strong PAL skills can lead to advanced global health and the alleviation of some of the world's most pressing healthcare challenges
The purpose of the study is to investigate nurses' perceptions of pain management and opioid use in patients who have received nerve blocks. This research aims to explore various aspects related to the utilization of nerve blocks in pain management protocols and the potential implications for opioid prescribing practices. Specifically, the study seeks to: Assess the adequacy of pain management in patients who receive nerve blocks, as perceived by frontline healthcare providers. Evaluate nurses' perceptions of the effectiveness of nerve blocks in providing targeted pain relief compared to traditional opioid-based analgesia. Investigate nurses' attitudes towards opioid sparing strategies and whether they believe patients who have received nerve blocks require fewer opioids for pain management. Examine nurses' experiences with and attitudes towards training in pain management, particularly in the context of nerve blocks, to identify potential areas for improvement in professional development. Explore the integration of evidence-based practices into clinical care and the extent to which nerve
We are surveying engineering doctoral students in the US to learn more about what factors lead them to continue or leave their training. We are especially interested in their perceptions of the climate of their programs.
The purpose of the study is to see how Kenyan clerics at the Coastal Region used social media platforms to communicate with their followers in areas including spiritual needs, teaching, counseling during the pandemic due to lockdowns by the government.
We are assess the utility of using a required doctor badge insert along with normal physician name tags to help patients and staff more accurately identify physicians. In particular, residents, or trainees, especially those in surgery are often misperceived as nurses, students, or other non-physicians. Prior research has shown that this varies based on both race and gender.
