The topic of belonging and why it is so crucial to a healthy and high-functioning work environment within academic medicine is explored this week on the Faculty Factory Podcast with our esteemed return guest, Rakhee K. Bhayani, MD. Dr. Bhayani first joined our program in April 2022 for an episode covering career changes/pivots, identifying your purpose, and stepping outside of your comfort zone. You can revisit that discussion here: https://facultyfactory.org/rakhee-bhayani. She serves as Professor of Medicine and is the Vice Chair for Advancing Women's Careers in the Division of General Medicine and Geriatrics in the Department of Medicine at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. "If we come to work and we have to specifically hide a part of who we are, that's mental energy and a tax that we're taking away from the work that we're doing,” she said. We welcome her back with open arms this week for an important and timely conversation on belonging's role in academic medicine and workplace culture. "Our goal is to help others feel comfortable and have that sense of safety, allowing them to bring their whole selves to work. This way, they can focus their energy on their work rather than expending mental energy on censoring parts of themselves to feel valued,” she added.

A video made and posted by Stranger Things actor Millie Bobby Brown has gone viral. In it she criticises the recent press articles about her appearance, saying "this isn't journalism, this is bullying". The 21-year-old posted a three-minute monologue on her Instagram page, in which she called out article headlines and the names of the reporters who wrote them. Anita Rani is joined by Anita Bhagwandas, beauty journalist and author of Ugly, Olivia Petter, journalist with the Independent and Morgan Fargo, Beauty and Wellness Editor British Vogue to talk about the impact of Millie calling this behaviour out.Today the General Medical Council has announced that for the first time since their records began, women doctors practising medicine in the UK are greater in number than their male counterparts in the UK. It is an historic moment, but the announcement also acknowledges that women are more likely to be affected by discriminatory behaviour during their medical training and some specialisms still have relatively low numbers of women. To discuss the challenges faced by women doctors, Anita is joined by Professor Dame Carrie MacEwan, a consultant Ophthalmologist and Chair of the GMC and Dr Leanne Armitage, a locum doctor working in General Medicine and co-founder of the Armitage Foundation for young people from under-represented backgrounds who want to study medicine.Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition that affects less than 2 percent of the population. For as long as the actor and star of Downton Abbey Tuppence Middleton can remember, she has had recurring unwanted intrusive thoughts that led to compulsions such as mental counting, checking and handwashing. She also has emetophobia, an intense fear of vomiting. Tuppence joins Anita to discuss her memoir ‘Scorpions,' which explores nearly thirty years of living with OCD and the impact it has had on her daily life. As the beauty brand Lush marks 30 years Anita is joined by one of the co-founders and product designer, Rowena Bird. Starting with one shop in Dorset, Lush now has over 800 stores in 51 countries, so how do they balance their ethical credentials with their global reach?Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt

And that was from the time they walked in the door to the time they walked out. So the actual mobility part of it may have only been 10 minutes. I think we took the time to break down a lot of those perceptions of  I'm not qualified to do this. This is going to take too much time. I'm not sure what level the patient is supposed to be mobilizing at. And broke it down. And when they saw that the units started using it over and over again.” Emelia 36:26 “For those who are trying to get this started and you, and you're not sure and you're doing your needs assessment, the biggest thing you could do to help your nursing colleagues, to help the therapy department, to help the hospital is that there has to be some type of standard assessment of how we look at patient mobility. If that is not there, that is a good starting point because you have to speak the same language.” Rapid Responses: What's the last book you read?

Episode 08 Innovation in Healthcare podcast series “Vaccination as a tool continues to excite me and to sort of offer up really innovative, novel, effective, safe solutions to these horrible diseases.”In this episode, Prof Samuel McConkey, Head of the Department of International Health and Tropical Medicine at the RCSI, and Consultant in General Medicine, Tropical Medicine and Infectious Diseases at Beaumont Hospital Dublin, and Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, Drogheda, discusses the transformative potential of vaccination for human health, with Priscilla Lynch, Clinical Editor of the Medical Independent, and International Center for Journalism Health Innovation Journalism Fellow.  Prof McConkey is Chair of the board of the European Vaccine Initiative, a leading European non-profit partnership that supports global efforts to develop effective and affordable vaccines against diseases of poverty and emerging infectious diseases that disproportionately affect low- and middle-income countries. In this podcast, he highlights the successes of vaccination in tackling a huge range of diseases, and discusses the exciting ongoing advancements in new vaccination technology, such as mRNA vaccines, and their potential for preventing and treating cancers like melanoma and autoimmune diseases. In addition, Prof McConkey emphasises the importance of ensuring access to vaccines for those who need them the most, particularly in low-income countries, and highlights the challenges of vaccine rollout in very rural and conflict-affected areas. The conversation also touches on the importance of trust, communication, and sustained funding and support in advancing vaccine research and development.This project was funded by the International Center for Journalists through the Health Innovation call.

Send us a Text Message.Dr. Ashwin Vasan, MD, PhD is the Commissioner of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene ( https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/about/about-doh/the-commissioner.page ).Dr. Vasan is a primary care physician, epidemiologist and public health expert with nearly 20 years of experience working to improve physical and mental health, social welfare and public policy for marginalized populations here in New York City, nationally and globally. Since 2014 he has served on the faculty at the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, and he continues to see patients as a primary care internist in the Division of General Medicine at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Irving Medical Center.Dr. Vasan most recently served as the President and CEO of Fountain House, a national nonprofit fighting to improve health, increase opportunity, and end social and economic isolation for people most impacted by mental illness. During his tenure, he grew the organization from a New York-based community mental health organization to a national network across eight markets, and grew the budget by nearly $20 million annually. He helped navigate the organization through COVID-19 by driving new telehealth and digital mental health programs while its physical locations closed, as well as developing new community-based outreach and accompaniment programs. Further, Dr. Vasan led the creation of a national policy office in Washington, D.C., working to change national mental health policy on the issues of crisis response services and funding for and quality of community-based mental health services.From 2016 to 2019, Dr. Vasan served as the founding Executive Director of the Health Access Equity Unit at the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which focused on the intersection of clinical and social services for the care of people involved in the justice system and other vulnerable populations — a first-of-its-kind government program in the nation. Under his leadership the team launched the NYC Health Justice Network — an innovative partnership between community-based primary care providers, criminal legal system reentry organizations, the Health Department and the Fund for Public Health — to embed tech-enabled, peer community health workers to promote health and wellness of people reentering the community from incarceration, and their families. Early in his career, Dr. Vasan spent nearly a decade at the intersection of global health, HIV and primary care, working with the nonprofit Partners In Health (PIH) in Rwanda, Lesotho and Boston, and at the World Health Organization (WHO) in Uganda and Geneva. At PIH, he led efforts to improve integrated primary care and HIV care delivery using WHO Integrated Management guidelines and training. Dr. Vasan worked as a Technical Officer under Dr. Jim Yong Kim on the WHO/UNAIDS "3by5 Initiative" to expand HIV treatment access in the developing world, focusing on pricing and access to HIV medications, and on health worker training and education.Dr. Vasan received his BA in Economics from the University of California, Los Angeles; his ScM in Epidemiology from the Harvard School of Public Health; his MD from the University of Michigan; and his PhD in Public Health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. He completed his clinical training in internal medicine-primary care at New York Presbyterian Hospital.#NewYorkCity #AshwinVasan #Commissioner #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth #HIV #SocialDeterminantsOfHealth #MentalHealth #PaulFarmer #ColumbiaUniversity #Aging #Healthspan #ProgressPotentialAndPossibilities #IraPastor #Podcast #Podcaster #ViralPodcast Support the Show.

Angela is joined by special guests, Dr. Zulia Frost and Bjorn Ekberg, experts in photobiomodulation and red light therapy. They discuss the benefits of near-infrared and red light therapy, clarifying the differences between the two and how they affect cellular health. The conversation also delves into the mechanics of photobiomodulation, focusing on the impact on mitochondria and energy production in the body. They explore the optimal timing and placement of red light therapy for various purposes, such as enhancing energy, improving sleep, aiding recovery from exercise, and addressing specific health conditions KEY TAKEAWAYS Red light therapy is effective for skin-related issues, while near-infrared light penetrates deeper for muscle and tissue benefits. Using the device one hour before exercise can enhance performance, while using it post-workout aids in recovery. Treating one area with the device can have systemic effects on the body, enhancing overall health and energy levels. To avoid diminishing returns, it's recommended to take breaks after consistent use and not overuse the device. FlexBeam offers targeted treatment, unlike ambient radiation from panels or saunas, making it more efficient and effective for specific conditions. BEST MOMENTS "I think panels have own goodness about them because you can create lots of photonic radiation in the room for systemic general effect." "I recommend people to use it before they go to sleep to help to enable better sleep, better energy production in the body." "The best red light therapy device is the one that you use the most." "Pre-conditioning, when you use it before you exercise, is actually also accumulative and very good."

NAPS is committed to providing genuine support and evidence-based education. Emily addresses the challenges of dealing with social media critics who may guilt-trip you for not adhering to their perceived parenting norms. If you've recently given birth or know someone who could benefit from Emily's expertise, don't miss this episode of Stork'd.   IN THIS EPISODE: [2:10] Emily shares her backstory of not having children, founding Nurture by NAPS, having three children and offering support and education to parents [6:11] Discussion regarding other countries offering institutionalized support services for new parents, which are not provided in the US and mental health needs for parents [10:25] Emily reveals her situation during pregnancy and how a program like NAPS would have made all the difference, and she discusses what NAPS offers [15:24] Emily believes parents should be able to get advice without judgment, using breastfeeding as an example [20:19] Discussion regarding sleep training, the need for support and education for new parents and what Emily would like to see in the future [30:10] Emily discusses what family means to her   KEY TAKEAWAYS: Do not let anyone, including social media, guilt you into making decisions regarding your child that do not come from your heart and how you desire to nurture and parent your baby. Our nation is woefully behind in offering services to new moms because the services are privatized.  Other countries do a much better job because it is a part of their healthcare system. Asking for support is critical when you have your new baby. So, don't be afraid to ask and narrow down the list of who you would trust to help or to give you advice.    RESOURCE LINKS: Stork'd - Facebook Stork'd - Instagram Stork'd - YouTube  Nurture by Naps - Instagram Nurture by Naps - Website   BIOGRAPHY:   Emily's passion for educating and supporting families stems from her personal experience dealing with loss.

While working in Labor & Delivery, Emily went back to school to get her master's degree in nursing and become a Family Nurse Practitioner. She practiced as a Nurse Practitioner in an OBGYN office for several years before running NAPS full time with Jamie. Emily best supports families through NAPS by pulling from her vast medical background, and her own experiences with pregnancy and parenting as a mother of three girls. After graduating from Boston College, Emily received her graduate degree from UMass Boston. Emily is a Family Nurse Practitioner and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). She lives in Charlestown, MA with her husband, AJ, three daughters Grace (age 7), Madelyn (age 5), Eloise (age 1), and dog Maisey (age 9).

Dr Alda Sainfort is a Board-Certified Holistic Care Specialist and founder of Advanced Healing Wellness Center, located in Pembroke Pines, Florida. The centre has been serving the neighbouring and international communities for over a decade.Dr Sainfort has dedicated over 25 years of her life to medical studies and is on a quest to explore and gain an understanding of how to heal intergenerational or inherited pain, emotions, trauma and patterns. After acquiring a Doctorate Degree in General Medicine, she began her career at the University of Miami Hospital in Investigative Clinical Trial Research. She held that position for a few years; then went on to pursue post-Doctorate Studies in Ayurvedic Medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine/Acupuncture, and Sufi Studies & Spiritual Healing. She subsequently attended the University of Spiritual Healing and Sufism (USHS) in California where she obtained a master's degree in divinity (MDiv). As a healer, she has received insights that led her to research and deepen her knowledge by exploring, learning and formulating different methods to address lineage-related emotional scars associated with inherited lineage patterns, PTSD, or childhood trauma. Being always on a quest for truth, she was always curious about ancestral relationships with the living. Some beliefs attest that when a person dies, life is over; yet, others and biblical scriptures confide that life is eternal; she was always perplexed by that dichotomy.She has hosted many family lineage healing, and detoxification & rejuvenation retreats throughout the USA and abroad for many years. She has helped transform the health and lives of many, including adults, children, couples, and families with personal, intergenerational, and spiritual health issues. Dr Sainfort is optimistic that a combined approach of Western and Eastern medicine, and a Spiritual healing approach could deliver comprehensive results and more complete care for the population at large. That is the Holistic Approach to health and wellness she advocates. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After graduating from Boston College, Emily received her graduate degree from UMass Boston. She lives in Charlestown, MA with her husband, AJ, three daughters Grace (age 7), Madelyn (age 5), Eloise (age 1), and dog Maisey (age 9).  Emily began her career in General Medicine before working as a Labor & Delivery nurse, where she met NAPS co-founder Jamie O'Day. While working in Labor & Delivery, Emily went back to school to get her master's degree in nursing and become a Family Nurse Practitioner. She practiced as a Nurse Practitioner in an OBGYN office for several years before running NAPS full time with Jamie. Emily best supports families through NAPS by pulling from her vast medical background, and her own experiences with pregnancy and parenting as a mother of three girls.  Emily's passion for educating and supporting families stems from her personal experience dealing with loss. She lost a sister to SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), has had multiple miscarriages, and has dealt with the anxiety and the stigma that comes with taking medication while pregnant and breastfeeding.

Dr. Cliona Ní Cheallaigh, Consultant in Infectious Diseases and General Medicine at St James' Hospital, discusses what she expects this winter with regard to the flu and Covid-19.

With advances in genetics and other human data, researchers and doctors will one day be able to practice precision medicine. However, predicting how a patient will respond to a medicine is challenging in under-represented patients who are often not included in clinical trials. This is due in part to systemic issues that deter people from participating in research, especially those who have been historically excluded due to factors such as race, ethnicity, sex, and age. In this episode, we talk to Ponda Motsepe-Ditshego, vice president and Global Medical Therapeutic Area head in General Medicine at Amgen, about the recognized differences in disease incidence among racial and ethnic groups and new approaches to increase representation in clinical trials.  To dive further into this topic, please join Amgen scientists at the Innovating Clinical Trials Q&A webinar discussion on September 28, 2022. Register for the event here.   Welcome to Innovating Clinical Trials, a special edition podcast series produced by The Scientist's Creative Services Team. This series is brought to you by Amgen, a pioneer in the science of using living cells to make biologic medicines. They helped invent the processes and tools that built the global biotech industry, and have since reached millions of patients suffering from serious illnesses around the world with their medicines. Clinical trials are desperate for innovation. Speed and efficiency need to improve as many patients cannot wait over a decade for new, potentially lifesaving medicines, and trial participants often do not reflect the patient population. Because clinical trials are complex and multidisciplinary, there is not a single, simple solution for accelerating progress. In this series, Rob Lenz, senior vice president of Global Development at Amgen, explores the latest approaches in clinical trial design and execution and highlights real-world examples of how scientists can run trials better and faster to develop optimal medicines that benefit patients.

For cancer programs and practices, silos between specialties make it challenging to address the comorbidities (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease) many patients with cancer experience. In the same healthcare system, a patient's primary care provider (PCP) may not know what their cancer care team knows and vice versa. Hear how an embedded PCP at ChristianaCare's Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute—a 2022 ACCC Innovator Award winner—allows a patient's oncology care team and PCP to be informed and collaborate on treatment plans when necessary.
