“…45 CEST agents contain a pool of labile protons that can be exchanged with the protons of the bulk water in an intermediate to slow rate on the NMR time scale (k ex ≤ Δω, where Δω is the chemical shift frequency difference between the exchangeable pool frequency and the bulk water frequency. 170,173 A slow water exchange rate is optimal for the production of a CEST signal at a low radiofrequency pulse for in vivo studies. 174 The application of a presaturation pulse at the frequency of the exchangeable protons leads to the transfer of some saturated spins into the water pool, which attenuates the signal of the bulk water.…”

Tens of millions of contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams are performed annually around the world. The contrast agents, which improve diagnostic accuracy, are almost exclusively small, hydrophilic gadolinium(III) based chelates. In recent years concerns have arisen surrounding the long term safety of these compounds, and this has spurred research into alternatives. There has also been a push to develop new molecularly targeted contrast agents or agents that can sense pathological changes in the local environment. This comprehensive review describes the state of the art of clinically approved contrast agents, their mechanism of action, and factors influencing their safety. From there we describe different mechanisms of generating MR image contrast such as relaxation, chemical exchange saturation transfer, and direct detection and the types of molecules that are effective for these purposes. Next we describe efforts to make safer contrast agents either by increasing relaxivity, increasing resistance to metal ion release, or by moving to gadolinium(III)-free alternatives. Finally we survey approaches to make contrast agents more specific for pathology either by direct biochemical targeting or by the design of responsive or activatable contrast agents.

“…Leadership learning has been shown to transfer from leadership development training for working professionals into the work environment (Brue & Brue, 2016;Coloma et al, 2012;Patton et al, 2103), and some evidence exists that leadership learning can effectively transfer from a structured undergraduate leadership program into the workplace (Mitchell & Daugherty, 2019;Soesbe, 2012 learning displayed results in which students learned more about themselves or became more confident as leaders (Bond & Sterrett, 2014;Chesnut & Tran-Johnson, 2013;Eich, 2008;Soesbe, 2012). Alumni of an undergraduate leadership program at a liberal arts institution believed the strengths assessment and other similar assessments led to greater selfawareness and a better understanding of the way they lead others (Soesbe, 2012). This group also expressed having additional confidence as a leader;…”

“…In a parallel study, leadership program alumni at a liberal arts college expressed having more self-awareness and could leverage these insights in a way that gave them increased confidence as a leader (Soesbe, 2012 (Leavy, 2017), and this primary data type was guided by basic qualitative research (Merriam & Tisdell, 2016 (Posner, 2016). A small effect size below .10 has been shown between respondent categories of self and observer for the five practices (Posner, 2016).…”

Limited research exists that assesses the transfer of leadership learning from an undergraduate leadership program into alumni work environments. This study explored alumni' valuation of an undergraduate leadership program by gaining an understanding of what leadership learning and leadership behaviors transferred into work environments. The participants were alumni that graduated from the same university in the southeastern United States, and while enrolled completed a four-year, co-curricular leadership program. Eight participant alumni engaged in semi-structured interviews as well as completed the Leadership Practices Inventory. The findings indicated that specific leadership learning did effectively transfer to work environments, and program alumni were frequently engaged in the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership at work to some degree. When developing leadership programs, practitioners may consider incorporating similar programmatic attributes and leadership learning deemed valuable by program alumni.
