Introducing Novel Surgical Clinical Correlations Into an Undergraduate Medical Anatomy Course

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomy education is a hallmark of many preclinical medical school curricula, but students are often unable to identify the clinical relevance of anatomy and its applications. Vertical curricula that integrate clinical concepts into the preclinical basic science years and vice versa have been shown to benefit student learning and increase ...

Taste Profile and Relative Bioavailability of Tovorafenib Powder for Oral Suspension and Food Effect of the Tovorafenib Tablet in Healthy Participants

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract A pediatric‐friendly powder for oral suspension (PfOS) of tovorafenib, a type II RAF inhibitor, was developed for patients with difficulty swallowing tablets. This open‐label, randomized, phase 1 study (QSC205140) evaluated the taste/palatability of PfOS formulations (n = 12), the relative bioavailability of the PfOS versus tablet formulation,
