NIH boosts pay for postdocs and graduate students
The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced pay increases today for early-career scientists who are recipients of its Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Awards (NRSAs), after an NIH advisory group recommended raises in December 2023 . Postdocs will now be paid at least $61,008, an increase of $4500 over their current minimum salary level—though still below the advisory group’s recommendation of $70,000. Graduate students will receive a $1000 raise, bringing their minimum to $28,224. NIH also announced a $500 increase in child care subsidies for early-career researchers who are parents. ...

Over 25 Years of Hope: Development of Lymphatic Filariasis Patient Support Groups in Haiti
Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2024 Apr 23:tpmd230607. doi: 10.4269/ajtmh.23-0607. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSupport groups can create environments that are conducive to healing and well-being, particularly for persons with stigmatizing chronic diseases. In 1998, the support group concept was adapted in Haiti for persons with disabling lymphedema caused by lymphatic filariasis (LF). The project was developed with the expectation that the support group model conceived in the developed world be interpreted and modified by persons affected with lymphedema in the Haitian setting. Initiated with modest financial support within a resear...

Towards a European prospective data registry for particle therapy
Radiother Oncol. 2024 Apr 21;196:110293. doi: 10.1016/j.radonc.2024.110293. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe evidence for the value of particle therapy (PT) is still sparse. While randomized trials remain a cornerstone for robust comparisons with photon-based radiotherapy, data registries collecting real-world data can play a crucial role in building evidence for new developments. This Perspective describes how the European Particle Therapy Network (EPTN) is actively working on establishing a prospective data registry encompassing all patients undergoing PT in European centers. Several obstacles and hurdles are discussed,...
