Summary: This study examined collaborative research behavior among veterinary academic faculty by gender and found that men were more likely to collaborate with other men. It also revealed that men had higher odds of achieving more advanced academic rank compared to women. Women were more likely to perceive gender as a disadvantage in accessing resources and opportunities.

Summary: Objective substandard and falsified veterinary medicines pose a significant threat to animal and public health, with low standards and prevalence in some regions. Studies have shown that the poor quality of these medicines may lead to treatment failure in animals, increased risks of antimicrobial resistance, and negative impacts on agricultural production. Further research is needed to inform policy and ensure the quality of veterinary medicines.

Summary: Veterinary service in Myanmar is crucial for rebuilding One Health, with international support helping to alleviate immediate food shortages and humanitarian crises. However, the long-term challenges of societal trauma, economic downturn, and infrastructure breakdown compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic will make recovery more difficult. Restoring veterinary services can address short-term food scarcity and long-term infection risks, supporting the rebuilding of societal infrastructure. Myanmar cannot rebuild alone and requires international and national support to facilitate peace and humanitarian efforts.

Summary: Research translation is a dynamic process within One Health that involves collaboration and communication among human, animal, and environmental health sectors to address health threats at the interface between humans, animals, and the environment. To fill the gap in capacity building for One Health stakeholders, a framework and accompanying training materials were developed to facilitate the application of research findings in addressing zoonotic disease challenges. Piloted with Egyptian stakeholders, the framework and training materials were validated as valuable tools for strengthening research translation networks and promoting evidence-based solutions to One Health zoonotic disease threats.

Summary: In the Spring of 2021, a research team from the Dalla Lana School of Public Health completed environmental scans on nine key health-related topics to develop an anti-Indigenous racism strategy for health systems in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. They created a weaved framework reflecting the three distinct Indigenous cultures in Canada; First Nations, Me ⠁tis, and Inuit, by integrating the Seven Grandfather Teachings, Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit, and the Me ⠁tis Principles of Research.

Summary: Medical education and medical education research have become increasingly globalized, but there is a dominance of authors from wealthy nations such as the USA, Canada, UK, Netherlands, and Australia in prestigious medical education journals. Many low-income and middle-income countries are absent and underrepresented. The study highlights the unequal representation and calls for attention to the colonized nature of academic publishing.

Summary: Open innovation in medical and pharmaceutical research has been steadily growing over the past decade. The study examined the scientific impact and social media attention of published literature in this field through bibliometric analyses. It identified major contributors, research areas, and the impact of public-private partnerships on the development of novel drugs. Major pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies were found to have higher citation counts and social media attention compared to nonindustry articles.

Summary: Outcomes research has become well-established in human medicine but is relatively recent in the field of animal health and veterinary medicine. The versatility of outcomes research allows it to be applied to a variety of stakeholders, considering both value elements and the desired outcomes. Important themes in the animal health industry include health, production, economics, and marketing. Evaluating the benefits of practices and interventions to veterinary patients and society, while maximizing outcomes, is crucial for addressing current and future scientific challenges.
