IU collaborates with Podiatry Associates of Indiana to bring diabetic foot clinical trials to patients
Investigators from the Indiana Center for Regenerative Medicine and Engineering at Indiana University School of Medicine and the IU Health Comprehensive Wound Care Center have turned to community physicians to reach adult patients with diabetic foot complications. Left untreated, these patients could face disability, including limb amputation.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 1 in 6 people with disabilities or 16.7% in the United States in 2018, had been diagnosed with diabetes, compared to 1 in 14 without disabilities. Currently, more than 37 million Americans have diabetes, or 11.3% of the U.S. population—11.2% of adults in Indiana.

Donor matches are made by IU Surgery resident Jackson Baril MD
When Indiana University School of Medicine general surgery resident, Jackson Baril, MD, was in college at University of Minnesota, he encountered a couple life-changing experiences: he registered for Be the Match to donate peripheral blood stem cells and decided to donate a kidney.
The journey began innocently enough, as there was someone on campus to encourage people to sign up to donate bone marrow. And in a tissue engineering class, he learned about the need for organs.

IU Surgery residents gain valuable lessons to take back to Operating Room
The Department of Surgery at the Indiana University School of Medicine offers optional research years to surgery residents that range from translational sciences to global health and surgical education after their second or third clinical year of residency. They dedicate a minimum of two years and have an opportunity to complete an advanced degree at no cost. During research years, residents gain valuable lab experience, opportunities to publish and present research, and the environment to build a professional network of colleagues to help navigate their future.
“I really hope they see this time as a growing period in which they can learn a lot in how to work with other people, how to critically evaluate scientific literature, and how to present their work to others,” said Troy A. Markel, MD, director of Pediatric Surgery Research and program director of General Surgery Resident Research for IU School of Medicine. “The resident becomes intimately associated with the body of literature of their interest,” he said, and they can “tease apart the scientific methodology. These lessons can help them when they return to their clinical duties as they learn to practice medicine based on the best evidence in the literature.”

IU Medicine and Purdue use AHRQ grant to explore how wearable sensors can enhance surgical team performance
Investigators from Indiana University School of Medicine Department of Surgery in Indianapolis and Purdue University School of Industrial Engineering at West Lafayette are researching how wearable sensors can facilitate modeling and assessment of surgery teamwork. They received a $1.6 million grant from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (1R01HS028026) to study how improving non-technical skills such as teamwork and communication can improve performance and outcomes.
Dimitrios Stefanidis, MD, PhD, vice chair of surgical education and professor of surgery at IU School of Medicine, will collaborate with Denny Yu, PhD, assistant professor of industrial engineering at Purdue University, who is an adjunct assistant professor of surgery at IU School of Medicine, as principal investigator.
