LETTER FROM THE EDITORS Dear Readers, Welcome to the third volume of the Florida Medical Student Research Journal. Research presented in this publication highlights the remarkable scholarly work conducted by our peers. From “Risk factors and predictors for non-supine infant sleep position: A narrative review of the literature” to “Efficacy of social skills training in treating negative symptoms of schizophrenia,” the research in this issue pertains to various different aspects of medicine. This issue also highlights the diverse range of pathologies seen in our clinical sites throughout Miami in interesting case reports, including “A rare finding: The case of an esophageal Dieulafoy” and “Acute appendicitis within an incarcerated femoral hernia: A case report.” As medicine continues to shift to an evidence-based model, there is even more emphasis on the production and distribution of quality research to contribute to the pool of evidence from which recommendations are made. As future physician scientists that will soon be responsible for expanding our current knowledge base, it is imperative for medical students to be actively involved in research throughout their training. We hope that this journal will act as a platform not only to share the work of our peers, but also encourage further scholarly work. Since the release of our inaugural volume two years ago, and our first volume with full-length manuscripts last year, we continue to be impressed by the quality and diversity of submissions, and believe we have made strides to fulfill this mission. This volume came to fruition with the unconditional support of the Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine faculty. We are sincerely grateful to our advisory board: John A. Rock, MD, MSPH, Carolyn D. Runowicz, MD, Sheldon H. Cherry, MD, FACS, Karin C. Esposito, MD, PhD, Juan M. Acuña, MD, MSc, Juan M. Lozano, MD, MSc, and Marin Gillis, PhD. Finally, we would like to thank the co-founders of the journal, Emily Andersen and Roy Lipworth, for their unwavering support and guidance. We would also like to thank our Senior Editors Leah Cohen, Jonathan Dahan, Aaron Malles, and Anusha Reddy for their continued dedication to the journal, and our Junior Editors Amaara Babwah, Nicole Birrer, Michael Delgado, Emily Geisler, Komal Kinger, Nicole Millan, Wilson Mourad, Sydney Resnik, and Jared Weingart for their hard work making the journal what it is today. We look forward to seeing the journal continue to grow under their leadership.
