Internet resources for the clinical geneticist.

The Internet offers a number of resources to clinical geneticists. This review outlines some of these with special emphasis on sites present at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine at the National Institutes of Health. Special attention is presented on how these various resources make use of PubMed, the premiere source of MEDLINE information on the Internet. Three NCBI resources are presented here. 1) 'Genes and diseases': a general curated series of web pages outlining various references to known genetic diseases with links to relevant on-line resources. 2) The Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) from Victor A. McKusick at Johns Hopkins University presents our current knowledge of all known human genetic diseases. 3) Human genome resources describe our current knowledge on the human genome project (HGP). A list of relevant uniform resource locators (URLs) is also included.

Brain injury rehabilitation settings: a gold mine for student and staff learning.

This article explores cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning relative to the professional development of senior nursing students and staff in a long-term brain injury rehabilitation setting. Valuable opportunities for learning exist in this environment. Nursing students acquire a much different perspective toward caring for patients in rehabilitation settings than in acute care; they also gain tremendous opportunities to strengthen the clinical judgement and psychomotor skills applicable to most clinical work environments following graduation. In addition, they assume professional attitudes toward and interest in caring for long-term brain-injured patients as they work closely with expert rehabilitation nurses. When staff nurses interact with students, they receive reciprocal benefits. Staff nurses profit by refining and broadening the scope of their own practice; they also develop a positive self-image and a feeling of pride in their work. More importantly, staff nurses in a long-term brain injury rehabilitation setting regain the feeling that their daily efforts are really worthwhile.

Gaining control of multiple-choice exams.

Gaining control of multiple-choice exams will eliminate feelings of frustration as students learn more about causes of testing dilemmas and begin to do something about the problem. Rather than constant failure after each exam, students will be able to claim victory over exams when they change negative behaviors, study smart, and test right.
