'Nobody wants to come': What if the U.S. can no longer attract immigrant physicians?
Immigrants make up a significant proportion of all the country's doctors. New policies are making it harder and less appealing for foreign-born physicians to come to the U.S.

Heard of the Evelyn Tables? Displays of real human nerves & blood vessels in their positions in the body. Love that @realgdt.bsky.social included these 17th century science artifacts in #Frankenstein.

Nursing is no longer considered a 'professional degree.' What changed?
The Trump administration's definition of a "professional degree" may not include nursing. Here's what the term means and who could be impacted.
