Population Health refers to the health status and health outcomes within a group of individuals. It includes aspects of both diagnosis and treatment, similar to clinical practice.
This talk will cover different approaches to emergency hemostasis testing for patients that are actively bleeding due to trauma, surgery, obstetrical emergencies and other causes. The talk i...
Learning is often an emotional process. Emotional stimuli with different valences, such as threat and reward, can transform an otherwise neutral sensory input into one that can trigger disti...
