Background: Postgraduate education is embracing journal clubs (JCs), which provide a platform for members to critically evaluate research articles and extract evidence-based nursing practice. The implementation of JCs by postgraduate nurses, especially in varied educational contexts such as Egypt, remains underexplored. This study aimed to explore and gain valuable insights into the professional experiences of implementing JCs among postgraduate nursing students in Egypt.

Introduction: Decision-making failure is a critical factor influencing workers' unsafe behavior. While previous research has predominantly concentrated on rational decision-making failures, it has largely ignored the impact of irrational decision-making failures and the mechanisms through which these failures contribute to unsafe behaviors. This oversight limits our understanding of how unsafe behavior develops.

Introduction: Critical thinking and clinical reasoning are crucial skills for healthcare professionals, particularly in clinical pharmacology, where decision making directly impacts patient care. However, there is a gap in the literature on how to foster these skills effectively. Therefore, the aim of this study was to map and examine the evidence of authentic learning environments in healthcare education in developing critical thinking and clinical reasoning skills in pharmacology.

According to productive failure (PF) theory, experiencing failure during problem-solving can enhance students' knowledge acquisition in subsequent instruction. However, challenging students with problems beyond their current capabilities may strain their skills, prior knowledge, and emotional well-being. To address this, we designed a social robot-assisted teaching activity in which students observed a robot's unsuccessful problem-solving attempts, offering a PF-like preparatory effect without requiring direct failure.

In this article, "Cosmosis" introduces a newly coined metaphorical term that illustrates conceptual parallels between the physiological process of osmosis and the expansive dynamics of the cosmos. Designed as an interdisciplinary teaching framework, Cosmosis provides a novel way to link cellular homeostasis with cosmological principles such as entropy, spacetime curvature, and dark energy. By drawing on core physiological terms such as concentration gradients, osmotic pressure, aquaporins, and membrane selectivity, Cosmosis offers an analogy that may spark curiosity, support integrative thinking, and encourage cross-disciplinary dialogue in physiology and biochemistry education.
