Measuring physician practice, preparedness and preferences for genomic medicine: a national survey
Conclusions This survey provides data from a breadth of physician specialties that can inform models of genetic service delivery and genomics education. The findings support education providers designing and delivering education that best meet learner needs to build a competent, genomic-literate workforce. Further analyses are underway to characterise early adopters of genomic medicine to inform strategies to increase engagement.

Investigating the Clinical Significance and Research Discrepancies of Balance Training in Degenerative Cerebellar Disease: A Systematic Review
Conclusion Most studies showed statistical and clinically significant ataxia severity improvements in subjects who performed balance training. The amount of balance challenge and frequency of training were important factors in determining the extent of training benefit. Gait speed may also improve if walking exercises are included in the balance training, but more studies need to be conducted. Balance measures statistically improved with training, but these improvements did not meet criteria for clinical significance.

Multiple Mini Interview as an admission tool in higher education: Insights from a systematic review
ConclusionThe results suggest that the content, response process, and internal structure of MMI were well supported by evidence; however, the relation and consequences of MMI to important outcome variables were inconsistently supported. The evidence shows that MMI is a non-biased, practical, feasible, reliable, and content-valid admission tool. However, further research on its impact on non-cognitive outcomes is required.

Credit: Catherine Wilson/IPSBy Catherine WilsonCANBERRA, Australia , Aug 27 2021 (IPS) Before the pandemic, many Pacific Island countries grappled with low numbers of students completing secondary education.
