Many students come into medical school with varied interests related to medicine. Maybe they worked in an underserved rural clinic or still reflect on bioethics discussions from one of their favorite undergraduate courses. The Scholarly Concentrations Program offers medical students the opportunity to pursue their passions through coursework and scholarship in an academic setting that runs throughout medical school yet doesnot extend the time it takes to complete a medical degree.Item Indiana University School of Medicine Scholarly Concentrations Program Annual Report 2022-2023(Indiana University School of Medicine, 2022) Indiana University School of Medicine; Wallach, Paul M.The Scholarly Concentrations Program offers students a longitudinal extracurricular program, designed to enhance their medical school experience through a parallel curriculum without incurring additional time or tuition. Students complete topic-specific coursework, engage in scholarly pursuits, benefit from mentorship to become better prepared leaders in their chosen field, and develop professional identity beyond medical knowledge. The topics are of broad interest and the program leverages the unique expertise, strengths, interests and needs of the school's diverse campuses and communities.Item Indiana University School of Medicine Scholarly Concentrations Program Annual Report 2023-2024(2024) Indiana University School of Medicine; Wallach, Paul M.The Scholarly Concentrations Program offers students a longitudinal extracurricular program, designed to enhance their medical school experience through a parallel curriculum without incurring additional time or tuition.

Few randomized trials have evaluated the efficacy of worksite diabetes prevention programs. This study evaluated the efficacy of a worksite lifestyle intervention on metabolic and behavioral risk factors compared with usual care. METHODS: A pretest-posttest control group design with 3-month follow-up was used. Participants with prediabetes were recruited from a university worksite and randomized to receive a 16-week lifestyle intervention (n = 35) or usual care (n = 34). Participants were evaluated at baseline, postintervention, and 3-month follow-up. Dietary intake was measured by a food frequency questionnaire and level of physical activity by accelerometers. Repeated measures analysis of variance compared the change in outcomes between and within groups. RESULTS: Mean (standard error [SE]) weight loss was greater in the intervention (-5.5% [0.6%]) than in the control (-0.4% [0.5%]) group (P < .001) postintervention and was sustained at 3-month follow-up (P < .001). Mean (SE) reductions in fasting glucose were greater in the intervention (-8.6 [1.6] mg/dL) than in the control (-3.7 [1.6] mg/dL) group (P = .02) postintervention; both groups had significant glucose reductions at 3-month follow-up (P < .001). In the intervention group, the intake of total energy and the percentage of energy from all fats, saturated fats, and trans fats decreased, and the intake of dietary fiber increased (all P < .01) postintervention. CONCLUSION: The worksite intervention improved metabolic and behavioral risk factors among employees with prediabetes. The long-term impact on diabetes prevention and program sustainability warrant further investigation.
