Peer-assisted learning to enhance pharmacy students' understanding of drug discovery in a conflict-affected setting.

Background: Drug discovery is a complex, multidisciplinary process that requires pharmacy graduates to be effective analytical, teamwork-oriented, and problem-solving individuals. Traditional teaching approaches have shortcomings in enabling students to learn such skills, particularly in resource-limited or disrupted educational settings.

Objective: The aim of this study was to measure the effect of a peer-assisted learning (PAL) intervention on Sudanese pharmacy students' knowledge, confidence, and perceptions towards the drug discovery process during a period of conflict-related disruption.

Molecular characterization and green synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles from Ureibacillus chungkukjangi for methylene blue degradation.

Synthetic dyes, such as methylene blue (MB), are increasingly becoming sources of water pollution and require better treatment strategies. This study describes an eco-friendly method for methylene blue degradation using green synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles form Ureibacillus chungkukjangi. This bacterium was isolated from clinical samples and identified using 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequenced using Sanger sequencing technology.
