Barriers of Access of Infertility Treatment: A Literature Review
Get PDFBackground: Infertility is experienced by 17.5 % of the world’s adult population, and research indicates that it will only worsen. Objective: This literature review aims to highlight a few of the barriers that interfere with an individual’s ability to receive care. Methods: A search was conducted across PubMed and Embase since August 2024. Search terms such as socioeconomic status, infertility, fertility education, fertility treatment, affordability, IVF, poverty, IUI, and sterility were used. Data was extracted via an Excel Spreadsheet, highlighting the type of study, fertility treatment assessed, social determinants of health assessed, and study limitations. Results: Our research yielded 15 articles highlighting 4 major disparities impacting women’s access to fertility treatments: geographical locations, financial limitations, racial differences, and health literacy levels. These 4 limitations were then used to separate information within an Excel spreadsheet as screening tools for the 15 articles. After the screening process, race (38%) was discovered to be the most discussed across our sources, with financial strain (24%) being the next most common. Discussion: Poor insurance coverage and high costs prevent some patients from pursuing treatment, whereas some do not know about available options. Patients in rural areas are unable to receive care in the required amount of time, as traveling farther distances may be unfeasible with their work and life schedules. Additionally, previous treatment of certain races has affected their perception of the medical field, leading to a vast mistrust in receiving care. Conclusion: The results of this literature review indicate a need for further research on balancing receiving optimal care and making it accessible to everyone. Furthermore, it suggests that pharmacists may be able to take on a greater role in patient advocacy and promote policies and reform that support this patient population

Knit To Knit: An AWS Implementation
No full textIn this presentation, I’ll introduce Knit To Knit, a web platform designed to help knitters create and sell patterns through a modern, user-friendly interface. After a brief overview of the company’s mission and core features, I’ll dive into how I deployed and hosted the site using AWS. I’ll walk through the infrastructure setup—using EC2, S3, and Docker to run a Django backend and React/Vite frontend—and explain how I managed security, environment variables, and production performance. I’ll wrap up with a live demo of the platform in action

Crossing Borders, Crossing Rights: The Legal Battle Over Cell Phone Searches at the Border
Get PDFThe Fourth Amendment states that all people within the United States have a right “to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures.” As such, searches generally cannot be performed without obtaining a warrant supported by probable cause. Nevertheless, the Supreme Court of the United States has recognized certain exceptions to the warrant requirement.
The Supreme Court has taken steps to modernize the Constitution as technology evolves. In 2013, the Supreme Court held in Riley v. California that warrants are generally required before conducting a cell phone search incident to arrest because, otherwise, officers would be able to warrantlessly obtain “vast quantities of personal information” which far exceeds such information that could even be found in a home. And in 2018, the Supreme Court held in Carpenter v. United States that cell-site location information from cell phone records could not be obtained without a warrant to create a timeline of an individual’s movements because such a search is highly invasive due to the fact that carrying a cell phone “is indispensable to participation in modern society.”
Despite these rulings, the Supreme Court has not addressed the prevalent issue of the border search exception being used to circumvent the warrant requirement and search cell phones at the border. However, seven of the United States Circuit Courts of Appeals have incorrectly addressed the issue with a variety of decisions ranging from affording individuals no protection from cell phone searches at the border, to requiring at least reasonable suspicion for some. My Note utilizes the logic in Riley and Carpenter to explain why cell phone searches at the border conducted without a warrant supported by probable cause violate the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution
