Podcast appearances and mentions of Claude D Pepper

In this episode, we explore how our healthcare system prepares itself for an ageing population, with guest Dr. Steven Albert. Host: Corina Paraschiv https://www.linkedin.com/in/corinamihaelaparaschiv/ https://atdesignresearch.com/ Guest Bio: Steven Albert is Chair of the Department of Behavioral and Community Health Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, Graduate School of Public Health. He holds the Hallen Chair of Community Health and Social Justice. He has nearly 30 years of research experience in public health, aging, neurologic disease, and health behavior. He served as principal investigator on three NIH R01 efforts (AG18234, Cognitive and Physical Basis of Disablement, 2001-06; MH62200, Depression and End of Life Care in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, 2000-07; and NR012459, End of Life in the Very Old, 2010-15). he currently directs or co-directs the Clinical and Population Outcomes Core of the University of Pittsburgh NIA Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center (P30 AG024827) and the U Pitt CDC Prevention Research Center (PRC U48 DP001918). He recently co-directed the HRSA Public Health Social Work Leadership training program (6G05HP7841) and U Pitt NIMH Advanced Center for Intervention Services Research for Late Life Depression Prevention (MH090333). He has also completed an extensive array of CDC-funded research, including an evaluation of the Pennsylvania Department of Aging’s statewide falls prevention program (SM Albert, PI, “Comparative Effectiveness of Community-Based Falls Prevention in Pennsylvania,” CDC ARRA U48 DP002657, 2010-13) that established the evidence base for the program. Our efforts led to important changes in these programs to support effectiveness and dissemination, as well as certification as an evidence-based program for Title-IIID ACL/AoA funding. He has also led the community health needs assessment (CHNA) for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center’s 40-hospital network. He has mentored doctoral (15+), postdoctoral (10+), visiting fellows (4), and junior faculty (6) across a number of academic fields. Diving Further: Prohaska TR, Anderson L, Binstock RH.

On this week's podcast we have the honor of talking with David Reuben about health care for older adults and how it's time to think different. It really is a smörgåsbord of topics, ranging from how to think about population health for older adults (and how we as individuals providers can provide at least some level of population health), the UCLA Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Program and its outcomes, Medicare Advantage for All, working with community partners through voucher systems, and tips for leading change. Dr. Reuben is Director of the Multicampus Program in Geriatrics Medicine and Gerontology and Chief of the Division of Geriatrics at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). He is also the Archstone Foundation Chair and Director of the UCLA Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center and the UCLA Alzheimer's and Dementia Care program.

Associate Professor Corrina Ross, Ph.D. One of the biggest risk factors for disease and death is – of course – aging. What if there were common medications for sick people that could be given to otherwise healthy people to help them stay healthier longer? That’s the idea behind a new study looking at the effects of two diabetes drugs on the aging? Marmoset Photo Courtesy Kathy West Studios Texas Biomedical Research Institute Associate Professor Corinna Ross, Ph.D., is using marmosets to study the impact of Metformin and Acarbose. The study was published in the journal Pathobiology of Aging and Age-Related Diseases. Local grant money from the Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center helped fund this important pilot project. Dr. Ross says community financial support for biomedical research is crucial.

Dr. Devon Dobrosielski is an assistant professor of Exercise Science in the Department of Kinesiology at Towson University. For over ten years he has been assessing cardiovascular function in humans in response to changes in diet and exercise; first, as a doctoral student at Louisiana State University and second, as a visiting assistant professor at Wake Forest University. Prior to his current appointment, Dr. Dobrosielski was an Instructor in the Department of Medicine at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, where he conducted diet and exercise clinical trials. He has secured funds through the Johns Hopkins Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center to study the impact of exercise and weight loss in older adults with obstructive sleep apnea. To date, Dr. Dobrosielski has published over 25 original research reports and over 50 scientific abstracts in top tier medical journals, including; Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, SLEEP, Atherosclerosis and the Journal of General Internal Medicine. He regularly reviews scientific manuscripts for Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise and SLEEP and has served as a scientific sessions chair at the American College of Sports Medicine annual meeting. In 2014, Dr. Dobrosielski was honored as a Junior Fellow by the Towson University Academy of Scholars to study the incidence of sleep apnea in collegiate football players. He teaches exercise physiology and research methods in exercise science and is passionate about promoting undergraduate scholarship.The SMARTER Team Training Audio Interview Series has been developed to share insights from some of the best in the industry.
