Postdoctoral T32 training is correlated with obtaining an academic primarily research faculty position.

The mission of NIH-sponsored institutional training programs such as the T32 is to provide strong research and career training for early career scientists. One of the main avenues to pursuing health-related research is becoming research faculty at an academic institution. It is therefore important to know whether these programs are succeeding in this mission, or, if barriers exist that prevent trainees from pursuing these careers. Our institution currently trains ~ 2400 post-doctoral scholars per year, approximately 5% of whom are enrolled in one of our 33 T32 programs. In this study, we 1) compare the proximal professional career trajectories of T32 trainees with non-T32 trainees at our institution, 2) compare proximal career trajectories of trainees in a subset of cardiovascular T32 programs based on their previous training backgrounds, and 3) survey past and current T32 trainees in a subset of cardiovascular T32 programs about the barriers and enablers they experienced to pursuing research-oriented careers. We find that former T32 trainees are significantly more likely to attain appointments as primarily research faculty members, compared to other trainees. Trainees report a perceived lack of stability, the paucity of open positions, and the 'publish or perish' mentality of academia as the top barriers to pursuing careers in academia. However, they were still more likely to choose research over clinical careers after participating in a dedicated T32 program. Our results support the conclusion that structured training programs strengthen the pipeline of young scientists pursuing careers in academic research, including those from underrepresented backgrounds. However, T32 postdoctoral researchers are held back from pursuing academic careers by a perceived lack of stability and high competition for faculty positions.

The National MD-PhD Program Outcomes Study: career paths followed by Black and Hispanic graduates.

Previous studies on attrition from MD-PhD programs have shown that students who self-identify as Black are more likely to withdraw before graduating than Hispanic students and students not from groups underrepresented in medicine (non-UIM). Here, we analyzed data collected for the National MD-PhD Program Outcomes Study, a national effort to track the careers of over 10,000 individuals who have graduated from MD-PhD programs over the past 60 years. On average, Black trainees took slightly longer to graduate, were less likely to choose careers in academia, and were more likely to enter nonacademic clinical practice; although, none of these differences were large. Black graduates were also more likely to choose careers in surgery or internal medicine, or entirely forego residency, and less likely to choose pediatrics, pathology, or neurology. Among those in academia, average research effort rates self-reported by Black, Hispanic, and non-UIM alumni were indistinguishable, as were rates of obtaining research grants and mentored training awards. However, the proportion of Black and Hispanic alumni who reported having NIH research grants was lower than that of non-UIM alumni, and the NIH career development to research project grant (K-to-R) conversion rate was lower for Black alumni. We propose that the reasons for these differences reflect experiences before, during, and after training and, therefore, conclude with action items that address each of these stages.

Nutrition employability and graduate readiness: The Australian Working in Nutrition study.

BACKGROUND: Nutrition science graduates contribute to the nutrition workforce by bringing specialist knowledge and skills needed to address future food challenges. This study aims to provide a snapshot of the current employment landscape for nutrition science graduates in Australia and how well their degrees prepare them for employment. METHOD: A cross-sectional survey of Australian tertiary nutrition graduates was conducted to explore tertiary training, employment pathways and their perceived preparedness for practice. RESULTS: This study included a final sample of 119 graduates from 17 Australian tertiary institutions. Almost two-thirds of respondents had completed further training. Most graduates (77%, n = 91) had worked in a food, nutrition science or health-related role after their degree; the most frequently cited employment settings were government or public health organisations; research, not-for-profit or nongovernment organisations; and the food industry. Work-integrated learning was identified as a key predictor of graduates working in a role that differed from their expectations as a student. The skill categories developed during nutrition training that were most valued in the workplace included nutrition and scientific knowledge, and professional and communication skills. CONCLUSIONS: This study offers first insights into the current employment landscape for nutrition graduates across Australia. Findings show that current nutrition science professionals are highly qualified and prepared to navigate the evolving demands of nutrition practice. Regular review of graduate employment will inform nutrition science curriculum to enable graduates to be well equipped in the face of dynamic practice settings.

Sob a ótica do exame: pesquisas sobre psicopatia e psicopatas no cenário científico brasileiro / From the perspective of the exam: the researches about psychopathy and psychopaths in the brazilian scientific scene / Bajo la óptica del examen: las investigaciones sobre psicopatía y psicópatas en el escenario científico brasileño

Fazendo um panorama das formas como a psicopatia e os psicopatas são tratados no cenário científico nacional, pelo recurso da hermenêutica foucautiana, o presente artigo traça, a partir dos relatórios de teses e dissertações, a rede de saber-poder que captura e constitui a figura limite do inimigo social. Essa trama forma-se com procedimentos e técnicas de avaliação e exame, onde diversas práticas discursivas se articulam para esquadrinhar, lapidar e objetificar uma ontologia do criminoso, de fato ou em potencial, inalienável da natureza perversa. Os enunciados expressam-se na díade jus-psi formando os trilhos por onde correm os dispositivos de vigilância e se formam as estratégias de controle atuais. Essa pesquisa possibilitou: elucidar quais áreas interessaram-se pela temática; de que maneira elas delinearam seu(s) objeto(s); com quais saberes instituídos e instituintes estabeleceram seus diálogos; e como esse acontecimento configura-se na contemporaneidade.

This article draws from the reports of theses and dissertations about psychopathy and psychopaths the knowledge-power network that captures and constitutes the figure limit of the social enemy, in the Brazilian scientific scene, through the use of Foucault's hermeneutics. This network is formed with procedures and techniques of evaluation and examination, where diverse discursive practices are articulated to search, polish and objectify an ontology of the criminal, in fact or in potential, inalienable of its perverse nature. The statements are expressed in the jus-psi dyad by forming the rails by which the surveillance devices run and the current control strategies are formed. This research made it possible to: elucidate which areas were interested in the subject; how they outlined their object (s); with which institutionalized and instituted knowledge established their dialogues; and how this event is configured in contemporaneity.

Brazilian Scientific Mobility Program - Science without Borders - Preliminary Results and Perspectives

ABSTRACT The Brazilian Scientific Mobility Program - Science without Borders (SwB) - saw the concession of over 101 thousand scholarships for Brazilian STEM students and education professionals to attend universities worldwide. As the first phase of this program ends, it is time to take a first look at its impacts, mainly on the undergraduate student body (79% of total scholarships implemented). Benefits included a 6-month language course (optional), a one year undergraduate course and optional 2 month internship in a university, government laboratory or technology company. Positive impacts have been seen on entrance into post-graduate programs (>20% of SwB students compared to <5% of the overall student body of similar fields), as well as high representation of lower income families (>50% from families with less than 6 minimum wages per month). The impact of the program will need to be evaluated over the next years, but innovation on the part of the students is already apparent. Any new SwB program needs to take into account the lessons learned from this first experience and therefore recommendations are presented.

Modelo del proceso de formación estadística investigativa del docente universitario en el posgrado / Model of the process of the investigative statistical formation in the postgraduate university student's

Fundamento: En la actualidad existen deficiencias en el proceso de formación posgraduada del docente universitario. Objetivo: Proponer un modelo para el proceso de formación estadística investigativa en el posgrado. Desarrollo Se sustenta en la teoría holístico configuracional, y en consecuencia, parte de las contradicciones que se manifiestan entre los pares de categorías comprensión de variables de investigación y la interpretación cuantitativa cualitativa de la realidad investigada, así como desde aplicación de técnicas de análisis de datos y la valoración estadística descriptiva y/o inferencial, relaciones dialécticas que dinamizan en todo momento la modelación y a la vez le dan coherencia e integración, y desde las cuales se originan los movimientos y transformaciones en la sistematización del contenido estadístico investigativo. Conclusiones: El modelo además de su relevancia, tiene una estructuración coherente y lógica en el tramado de relaciones que se establecen entre sus categorías, así como fundamentos teóricos bien argumentados.

Background: At the present time there are some deficiencies in the process of formation of the postgraduate university students. Objective: To propose a model for the process of investigative statistical formation in the postgraduate. Development: It is sustained in the holistic configurationally theory , and in consequence parts of the contradictions that are manifested between the pairs of categories understanding of variables investigation and the qualitative quantitative interpretation of the investigated reality, as well as from application of analysis techniques of data and the descriptive statistical valuation and/or inferential, dialectical relationships that energize in all moment the modulation and at the same time give them coherence and integration, and from which originate the movements and transformations in the systematizing of the investigative statistical content. Conclusions: The pattern besides its relevance, has a coherent structuring and logic in the schemed of relationships that are settled down among its categories, as well as well-argued theoretical foundations.

Caracterização do corpo discente das primeiras turmas do curso de administração em saúde do PROAHSA / Characterization of the student body of the health administration course in the first classes of PROAHSA

Este artigo objetivou caracterizar os alunos das duas primeiras turmas do Curso de Administração Hospitalar e de Saúde, oferecido pela parceria entre o Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMUSP) e a Escola de Administração de Empresas de São Paulo da Fundação Getulio Vargas (EAESP-FGV).

Retrato quase sem retoques dos egressos dos programas de pós-graduação em saúde coletiva, 1998-2007 / A frame nearly without retouch of the public health post-graduation alumni, 1998-2007

Apresentamos resultados do levantamento de informações que permitiram identificar onde estão e o que pensam sobre alguns atributos de sua formação pós-graduada, os egressos dos programas de pós-graduação em Saúde Coletiva, no período de 1998 a 2007. Realizado por meio de duas formas de coleta em fases distintas e concomitantes, este subprojeto foi desencadeado a partir da solicitação de informações junto aos programas, cujas respostas permitiram a construção de um censo dos alunos que defenderam tese ou trabalho equivalente, nas três modalidades consideradas: doutorado, mestrado acadêmico e mestrado profissional. Além do fornecimento de dados que nos permitiram construir e descrever um perfil acadêmico-profissional de egressos dos programas existentes na área de Saúde Coletiva, as informações provenientes dos programas possibilitaram contatos eletrônicos com a quase a totalidade dos ex-alunos localizados. Nesta segunda fase, enviamos-lhes um formulário para preenchimento online, contendo perguntas valorativas sobre o papel da pós-graduação no seu trajeto intelectual e profissional, com o objetivo de caracterizar sua formação pós-graduada. Encaminhamos algumas sugestões para levantamentos futuros, como a criação de ficha de inscrição padronizada, digitalizada e aberta à consulta.

We present the results of a data collection that allowed to identify where are and what the alumni of the Public Health post-graduation programs think about some attributes of their post-graduation, from 1998 to 2007. By means of two distinctive and concomitant phases, this subproject was initiated with information request along with the programs. The answers allowed the construction of a student census that defended thesis or equivalent, in three modalities: doctorate, academic and professional master. Besides the data provision that allowed us to construct and describe an academic-professional profile of the Public Health area alumni, the information allowed electronic contact with most of the alumni located. In the second phase, we sent the alumni a form to be answered online, with appreciative questions regarding the role of the post graduation on their intellectual and professional path, aiming to characterize their post-graduation degree. We forwarded some suggestions to future researches, as for example the creation of a standardized and digitalized enrollment form open to consultation.
