Staying current: developing just-in-time evidence-ased learning objectives for a maternal cardiac arrest simulation curriculum.
The authors’ objective was to review the latest evidence on resuscitation care for maternal cardiac arrest (MCA) and to gain expert consensus on best practices to inform an evidence-based curriculum. A multidisciplinary panel of stakeholders in MCA developed an evidence-based simulation training, Obstetric Life Support™ (OBLS). The researchers found that a novel three-step process including reaffirmation of evidence process, systematic review, and a modified Research and Development technique resulted in unanimous consensus from experts in MCA resuscitation on existing and new just-in-time best practices to inform the learning objectives for an evidence-based curriculum.

Cross-center virtual education fellowship program for early-career researchers in atrial fibrillation.
This paper discusses the results of the establishment of the atrial fibrillation (AF) Strategically Focused Research Network Cross-Center Fellowship Program to enhance the competencies of early-stage AF basic, clinical, and population health researchers through experiential education and mentorship. The effectiveness of the fellowship model was evaluated via mixed methods formative and summative surveys for the first 2 years. Productivity metrics were as high for the 12 fellows as they hoped with 50 AF-related manuscripts, 7 publications, 28 presentations, and 3 grant awards applications. The fellows reported medium to high satisfaction with the overall fellowship, webinar content and facilitation, staff communication and support, and program organization.
