Skin diseases of the breast and nipple
The evaluation and management of dermatologic diseases of the breast and nipple requires an understanding of the unique anatomy of the breast and nipple and an awareness of the significant emotional, cultural, and sexual considerations that may come into play when treating this anatomic area. The first article in this continuing medical education series reviews breast anatomy, congenital breast anomalies, and benign and malignant breast tumors. An emphasis is placed on inflammatory breast cancer and breast cancer with noninflammatory skin involvement and on cutaneous metastases to the breast and from breast cancer.

Reflectance confocal microscopy
(RCM) is a high-resolution, noninvasive tool that is currently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for obtaining and interpreting images of the skin and cutaneous neoplasms with the goal of decreasing unnecessary biopsy procedures in patients with benign lesions. The second article in this continuing medical education series focuses on identifying key criteria for the diagnosis of common skin cancers —melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma.

Emerging therapeutics in the management of connective tissue disease. Part II: Dermatomyositis and scleroderma
The management of connective tissue diseases is dramatically evolving with the advent of biologics and novel oral systemic therapeutics. Despite involvement in the care of these complex patients, there is a knowledge gap in the field of dermatology regarding these emerging agents. The second article in this continuing medical education series discusses new and emerging therapeutics for dermatomyositis and scleroderma that target cells, intracellular signaling pathways, and cytokines.

Creating a medical education enterprise: leveling the playing fields of medical education vs. medical science research within core missions.
CONCLUSIONS: B&D's organizational frames can be used to identify strategies for addressing the pressing need to promote and recognize clinician-educators' scholarship. We realize that our situation is unique in several respects, but this approach is flexible within an institution and transferable to any other institution and its medical education program.

Implementing economic evaluation in simulation ‐based medical education: challenges and opportunities
ConclusionA properly conducted economic evaluation can help stakeholders (i.e., programme directors, policy makers and curriculum designers) to determine the optimal use of resources in selecting the modality or method of assessment in simulation. It also helps inform broader decision making about allocation of scarce resources within an educational programme, as well as between education and clinical care. Economic evaluation in medical education research is still in its infancy, and there is significant potential for state‐of‐the‐art application of these methods in this area.

Aiming for Better Medical Education in Africa
Improving healthcare standards in developing countries does not simply mean enhanced access to medicines. Often medical education systems are not fit for purpose, and inherent problems with infrastructure, communication, and facilities in remote areas, in particular, mean that modernization of medicine is next to impossible. The African Institute for Medical Education (AIM) is a CPA-audited 501 c.3. organization registered in the US in 2014, and its goal is exceptionally admirable – to educate nurses, midwives and other medical professionals by visiting the most remote villages in Uganda by delivering “the most advance...
