Two Conflicting Worlds: Youngs’ Biography of Eleanor Roosevelt

This paper offers a review of J. WIlliam T. Youngs biography of Eleanor Roosevelt, Eleanor Roosevelt: A Personal and Public Life. Youngs\u27 biography covered Eleanor Roosevelt throughout her life: from her upbringing in NYC, her actions as first Lady of the United States, as well as Eleanor\u27s work as a United Nations Delegate after FDR\u27s passing. The review establishes how Youngs portrayed Eleanor Roosevelt\u27s life as opposing spheres, the personal and the public. The paper describes Youngs\u27 structure; the use of primary sources, imagery, and personal stories; and weaknesses in Youngs\u27 scholarship in order to provide a comprehensive review

Identifying inequities in lung transplantation: a call for strategies and future research

Innovations in organ preservation, surgical technique, and postoperative care have transformed solid organ transplantation. As organ transplantation becomes more common, potential racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic inequities in the referral and selection process are also emerging. Research studies highlight that patients from minoritized and low socioeconomic groups experience lower rates of referrals, reduced access to the transplant waitlist, higher rates of postoperative complications, and higher mortality rates for cardiothoracic (lung/heart) and abdominal (liver/kidney/pancreas) transplants. Yet, the drivers of these inequities are understudied and thus poorly understood. Strategies that address the root causes and mitigate these inequities are urgently needed. The purpose of this manuscript is not to be a systematic review, partially because there is limited research in this area, but to lay a roadmap toward equity in lung transplant. We highlight the available literature on lung transplantation inequities, identify critical needs, and propose strategies for the next steps. Our goal is to urge a call to action for the research community to systematically address the research in lung transplant disparities, and for health systems, organizations, and policymakers to implement the organizational and health system changes to meaningfully reduce these disparities

Two-year optical site characterization for the Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment (P-ONE) in the Cascadia Basin

The STRings for Absorption length in Water (STRAW) are the first in a series of pathfinders for the Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment (P-ONE), a future large-scale neutrino telescope in the north-eastern Pacific Ocean. STRAW consists of two $$150\,\mathrm {m}$$ long mooring lines instrumented with optical emitters and detectors. The pathfinder is designed to measure the attenuation length of the water and perform a long-term assessment of the optical background at the future P-ONE site. After 2 years of continuous operation, measurements from STRAW show an optical attenuation length of about 28 m at $$450\,\mathrm {nm}$$. Additionally, the data allow a study of the ambient undersea background. The overall optical environment reported here is comparable to other deep-water neutrino telescopes and qualifies the site for the deployment of P-ONE
