Correction: Hepatitis A and B vaccination in gbMSM in Ireland: findings from the European MSM internet survey 2017 (EMIS-2017)
White P, O'Donnell K, Brennan A, et al. Hepatitis A and B vaccination in gbMSM in Ireland: findings from the European MSM Internet Survey 2017 (EMIS-2017). Sex Transm Infect 2023;99:337-344. In this article, the authors have made changes to the original manuscript to acknowledge the broad range of stakeholders who should have been included in our original acknowledgements section. The funding section has been updated to recognise the funding given to the wider EMIS project, as opposed to this particular study. The methods section has also been updated to better capture the ethical considerations for this study and cite som...

Funding Bias in Shoulder Arthroplasty Research
Prior research has shown that industry funding can impact the outcomes reported in medical literature. Limited data exists on the degree of bias that industry funding may have on shoulder arthroplasty literature outside of the Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery. The purpose of this study is to characterize the type and frequency of funding for recently published shoulder arthroplasty studies and the impact of industry funding on reported outcomes. We hypothesized that studies with industry funding are more likely to report positive outcomes than those without. (Source: Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery)

New initiative aims to bolster funding for scientists in war-torn Ukraine
WASHINGTON, D.C.— For astrophysicist David Spergel, teaching at a summer school about data science in August 2023 in Ukraine was a “surreal” experience. At times, utterly normal—smart students and collegial dinners in the charming cobblestoned city of Lviv. But punctuated by sirens and cellphone alerts warning of Russian missile attacks that compelled attendees to seek refuge in bomb shelters. Spergel, president of the Simons Foundation , started to think there had to be something more the West could do to aid his Ukrainian colleagues. Eight months later, that idea has blossomed into the Scienc...

Historical technology transfer activities and productivity of NIDLRR grantees
Assist Technol. 2024 Apr 17:1-13. doi: 10.1080/10400435.2024.2324051. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper analyzes the technology-related outputs from The National Institute of Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR). We seek to answer the questions: What are the types and frequency of assistive technology (AT) technology transfer (ATTT) outputs from NIDILRR grants? How does NIDILRR's ATTT generation compare to other granting organizations? What types of ATTT outputs occur, how, and what is the relative productivity of the most frequently funded universities and small businesses performin...

Supporting equitable and responsible highway safety improvement funding allocation strategies - Why AI prediction biases matter
Accid Anal Prev. 2024 Apr 16;202:107585. doi: 10.1016/j.aap.2024.107585. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe existing methodologies for allocating highway safety improvement funding closely rely on the utilization of crash prediction models. Specifically, these models produce predictions that estimate future crash hazard levels in different geographical areas, which subsequently support the future funding allocation strategies. In recent years, there is a burgeoning interest in applying artificial intelligence (AI)-based models to perform crash prediction tasks. Despite the remarkable accuracy of these AI-based crash predict...
