This application season has been particularly challenging to navigate due to the unprecedented global pandemic of COVID-19. Third-year students were called away from clinical rotations, away rotations were canceled, and interviews were transitioned to a completely virtual platform. In order to understand how these changes have affected our medical student applicants and improve the 2021-2022 application process, we are investigating the experiences of 2021 applicants to integrated plastic surgery programs.

The study is designed to look at Crohn's disease over a period time, from before a surgery to 12 months after the surgery has taken place. The role bacteria in the gut plays in Crohn's disease (CD) is not well understood. Which particular microbes contribute to disease remain unknown. In CD, ~70% of patients will end up requiring surgery due to chronic unrelenting complications, and ~50% require additional surgery. We hope to identify key microbes at the time of surgery in stool and tissue and correlate it over time with data collected at timepoints after surgery. We will use this data with clinical information to determine if specific microbes are associated with disease recurrence.

This study aims to understand how rural women experience the expansion of oil palm crops, particularly in the Colombian Llanos region. The research will delve into the work women performed in the plantations and on their own farms. The study also wants to address how women interact with their environment (their practices, what they know about nature, how they use nature) and if that has changed because of the expansion of oil palm. Finally, the research will also explore how the government is helping those women and their families to achieve their dreams. This research is important because there is very little information about rural women living in this region in Colombia. My research will contribute to know more about their stories and highlight their important contribution to the country.

The purpose of the study is to understand naloxone prescribing patterns and provider perception of opioid overdose risk among older adult patients in primary care. Older adults are vulnerable to opioid overdose, but it is unclear if this is a prescribing consideration in clinical practice.
