You're All Different - Creating your own careerEva Amsen
Keynote talk presented at 2013 Naturejobs Career Expo.
How do people move into jobs after their PhD? When did they know what they wanted to do for the rest of their lives — or have they never figured it out? There is no fixed path to a career in science, but this talk shows how several people each created a career of their own, sometimes in very unexpected ways. Even though everyone is different, there are a few common themes among these stories of finding a career after a science PhD.

anatomy: Human digestive system and its partsdrparul6375
Your digestive system is a network of organs that help you digest and absorb nutrition from your food. It includes your gastrointestinal (GI) tract and your biliary system. Your GI tract is a series of hollow organs that are all connected to each other, leading from your mouth to your anus. Your biliary system is a network of three organs that deliver bile and enzymes through to your GI tract your bile ducts.
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

4. Human Organ Systems
These organ systems are all
developed from a fertilized
egg, which divides into
stem cells
Stem cell: An unspecialized
cell that can produce
various specialized cells.
5. Human Organ Systems
The stem cells develop into specialized cells, which form
tissues. Tissues organize into organs, and organs organize into
organ systems.
Levels of cellular organization:
9. Digestive Tract: Mouth, Teeth, Tongue, and Glands
The saliva, teeth,
mouth, and
tongue form a
food bolus
This bolus goes
on into the next
part of the
digestive tract
12. Digestive Tract: Pharynx and Epiglottis
The pharynx
connects the oral
cavity to the next
part of the digestive
system (the
epiglottis and
esophagus)
The epiglottis
prevents food from
going into your lungs
through the larynx
20. Digestive Tract: Stomach
Lower esophageal
sphincter:
If the lower
esophageal
sphincter is not
closed properly,
stomach acid enter
the esophagus and
cause heartburn
Also known as cardiac
sphincter
21. Digestive Tract: Stomach
Stomach acid:
-Also known as gastric juice
-Contains hydrochloric acid
(HCl)
-pH of 2 (approximately)
-Contains digestive enzymes
like pepsin (digests
proteins)
-Chemically breaks down
food
22. Digestive Tract: Stomach
Why doesn’t the acid burn through the stomach?
The rugae lining the stomach continuously
secretes mucus to protect the stomach
The rugae allow the
stomach to expand
dramatically (up to 1 litre)
23. Digestive Tract: Stomach
Sometimes the acid does
burn through…
The result is an ulcer
Can be caused by
-bacterial infection (i.e.
Helicobacter Pylori)
-weakened mucosal lining
-anti-inflammatory
medications (i.e. aspirin)
-smoking is associated as well
26. Digestive Tract: Stomach
Pyloric Sphincter:
Strong ring of smooth
muscle which connects
stomach to small
intestines.
Enables chyme (semidigested food from
stomach) to enter the
duodenum.
30. Digestive Tract: Duodenum, Pancreas, & Gall Bladder
Duodenum:
The gall bladder and
pancreas have ducts
going into the
duodenum.
-10-12 inches long
-most chemical
digestion takes place
here
31. Digestive Tract: Duodenum, Pancreas, & Gall Bladder
Pancreas:
-Secretes sodium
bicarbonate (baking
soda) to neutralize
stomach acid
-Secretes pancreatic
juice, a mixture of
enzymes like trypsin,
pancreatic lipase,
pancreatic amylase
32. Digestive Tract: Duodenum, Pancreas, & Gall Bladder
Gall Bladder:
Stores bile
produced by the
liver.
Bile emulsifies fats
to allow greater
surface area for
fat enzymes
(lipases) to work
35. Digestive Tract: Jejunum
Villi:
-finger-like
projections of
the small
intestine lining
- More surface
area to absorb
nutrients.
The cells lining each
villus can perform
-Active transport
(transport of nutrients
requiring energy)
-Passive transport
(transport of nutrients not
requiring energy)
39. Digestive Tract: Large Intestines
Colon:
-Absorbs water
-Pass waste material
from the body
-Contains colonic
bacteria which produce
vitamin K, vitamin B12,
thiamine, and riboflavin
(mutualistic
relationship)
40. Digestive Tract: Rectum, Anal Canal, Anus
Rectum:
-Forms peristaltic waves
to expel feces through
the anal canal
-Stretch receptors
trigger contractions
when rectum is full
41. Digestive Tract: Rectum, Anal Canal, Anus
Anal sphincter:
Exterior and interior
sphincters pull the anus
up over the exiting
feces
42. Excretory system
Liquid wastes are
eliminated by the
excretory system.
The kidneys filter
the blood, and
wastes are
removed through
urine (stored in
the bladder)
43. The Circulatory System
Circulatory system:
-transports nutrients and
oxygen to cells
-carries wastes to the
organs responsible for
eliminating them from the
body.
45. The Circulatory System
Types of blood vessels:
Vessel
Structure
Function
Artery
Thick elastic walls
Small
circumference
Transports blood
AWAY from the
heart
Vein
Thin, less elastic
walls with valves
Large
circumference
Transports blood
TOWARDS the
heart
Very thin wall
Smallest
circumference
Materials are
exchanged
between the
blood and the
body
Capillary
Diagram
47. The Circulatory System
Capillaries
Walls of blood vessels
are made up of cells
called endothelial cells.
The thin layer of
endothelial cells allows
diffusion to occur more
rapidly.
