COVID-19 has unfortunately halted lab work, conferences, and in-person networking, which is especially detrimental to researchers just starting their labs. Through social media and our reviewer networks, we met some early-career stem cell investigators impacted by the closures. Here, they introduce themselves and their research to our readers.

Purpose: Breast cancer remains a significant public health challenge globally, as well as in India, where it is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in females. Significant disparities in incidence, mortality, and access to health care across India's sociodemographically diverse population highlight the need for increased awareness, policy reform, and research.
Design: This review consolidates data from national cancer registries, global cancer databases, and institutional findings from a tertiary care center to examine the epidemiology, clinical challenges, and management gaps specific to India.

Background: Despite advances in HIV care, viral load suppression (VLS) among adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV) in Uganda continue to lag behind that of adults, even with the introduction of dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimens, the Youth and Adolescent Peer Supporter (YAPS) model, and community-based approaches. Understanding factors associated with HIV viral load non-suppression in this population is critical to inform HIV treatment policy. This study assessed the prevalence and predictors of viral load non-suppression among ALHIV aged 10-19 years on DTG-based ART in Soroti City, Uganda.

Insight in the trajectory of an individual's functional ability and intrinsic reserve capacity in a relatively younger population of older adults is lacking. This study aims to investigate the early stages of frailty by tracking trajectories of physical indicators of intrinsic capacity before frailty becomes clinically evident.

Introduction: Organisational problems still prevent widespread implementation of clinical medication reviews. The Opti-Med2 method was developed to facilitate the process of performing clinical medication reviews. The method includes patient involvement by means of a questionnaire and expert teams of community pharmacists and general practitioners (GPs) to perform pharmacotherapeutic analyses, providing the patients' own GP with pharmacotherapeutic advice.

Introduction: Age related hearing loss is in the top ten contributors to the global burden of disease and one of the largest modifiable risk factors for age-related dementia. However, awareness of the consequences of untreated hearing loss is poor and many adults do not seek hearing assessment. Despite World Health Organisation recommendations, no EU country currently has a national adult screening programme.
