Publishing Medical Student Capstone Research in Your Institutional Repository: Challenges and Opportunities for Scholarly Publishing Instruction
The Cooper Medical School of Rowan University has a unique, required four-year curriculum and course named Scholar\u27s Workshop. The Scholars Workshop course addresses biostatistics, epidemiology, quality and patient safety, health care disparities, research, research ethics, and other related topics. A primary assignment on this course is the creation of culminating capstone projects completed in the M3 and M4 years which include a written a thesis and poster presentation under the guidance of a clinical mentor. Rowan University medical librarians began a new service that allows medical students the option of publishing their capstone project materials into the library\u27s institutional repository hosted on Bepress Digital Commons known as Rowan Digital Works. This lightning talk will cover the librarians role in supporting this process in general in coordination with the faculty course directors. The presentation will highlight special challenges and considerations involved in publishing medical student capstone materials in institutional repositories such as the need to provide optional embargos and general instruction on scholarly publishing topics

Ethics committees in outpatient medical practice: a scoping review
This scoping review is being conducted to consolidate existing research on the broad topic of outpatient ethics committees, identify gaps in knowledge, and inform future implementation of outpatient ethics committees and studies performed on them. Inpatient or hospital ethics committees are well-researched and established, whereas outpatient ethics committees have not been explored as well. Outpatient ethics committees can serve as a helpful tool for healthcare providers in resolving ethical dilemmas that arise in non-hospital settings
