“…Gottingen minipigs mirror the physiological radiation response observed in humans and hence make an ideal candidate model for studying radiation biodosimetry for both limited-sized and mass casualty incidents. We examined the whole blood gene expression profiles starting one day after total-body irradiation with increasing doses of gamma-rays. …”

“…Multi-disciplinary team members working in Burn Units are repeatedly exposed to stressful patient events such as end of life, escalation of care, major burn admissions, or mass casualty events. These traumatic exposures can all increase the risk of staff burnout, which is negatively associated with resilience (Colville et al., 2017). …”
