Join us as we get to sit with UT Heath in San Antonio's program Director, Laura P. Vasquez (Ph.D, MS, RVT, RT, MR, MRSO), as she shares about the program they are offering.  This is the first ver entry into the program at a master's level that offers students the education, training, and opportunity to become multimodality certifications.   We hit on several topics during this discussion with the order of the content below: The demand for education, market trends, and what multimodality trained technologist have to offer our industry.  Changes in education that has been seen over the years, leading up to programs of higher education and training.  The definition of professionalism, COVID trends, advocacy and the trends that are happening in medical imaging (and all of medicine).  UT Health San Antonio's masters level program, what it offers to it's students, what entering the program looks like, and what students can expect to achieve. Investing in our own, heightening awareness of levels of education and the importance of the education medical imaging professionals have in advocacy.  The rigor of programs at UT Health in San Antonio and the start of the first cohort. Face to face vs hybrid programs and investing resources in earlier education with STEM programs to drive more students into the medical imaging pathway. Current workforce issues and looking to fill the void with traveling technologist; missing the opportunity to build and maintain a team. What students are looking at as they go through these programs and working in the industry. Educating on the Radiologist Assistant role and how it plays a key part in where our industry if currently at.  Understanding the importance of advocating for new industry growth and investing in those who are trailblazing the process.  Closing the program up and sharing on the future hope of the students currently enrolled in this masters level program. It was such an honor to have Dr. Vasquez on with us and share on the importance of recognizing professionals and investing in the future of the profession.  Our thoughts and views align as we each look at how we want to see the industry grow and maintain recognition.

Dr John Seymour is an Associate Professor at UT Health in Neurosurgery and at Rice University where his lab works on electrophysiology studies, biophysics modeling, and applying machine learning models to decoding of neural activity. A major project in our lab is focused on developing a long-term brain-machine interface for the treatment of aphasia or locked-in syndrome. ***This podcast is sponsored by Ripple Neuro, check out their Neuroscience Research Tools here*** Top 3 Takeaways: "Your job as the engineer is to create a high resolution map of a crowd's vocalization during some live event, the rules are, you only get the place, say 10 or 20 devices throughout the stadium but only on these devices. At some point you realize more and more microphones on these poles are going to generate redundant information and they won't help us in our challenge to map the vocalization of this massive stadium. People have a very good intuition for sounds and we all understand sound is directional. Neural signals act the same way." "A rough rule of thumb is if the substrate diameter is on the order of magnitude of the source size, then there is good directionality in that situation." One day neural devices will be based on the patient's anatomy and will be printed on-demand to match the patient 0:45 "Do you want to introduce yourself better than I just did?" 2:45 "Geographically, how close are Rice and UT health?" 3:15 "You're saying the future of neural implants is additive depth electrodes. What does that mean?" 13:45 Sponsorship by Ripple Neuro 14:15 "What's the solution, to try to make them directional?" 16:30 "So you basically need your collector to be as small as possible?" 18:30 "So by finding the right size of the electrode and the substrate diameter you're able to have directional electrodes?" 22:45 "What's the advantage of your technology? What does it change?" 28:00 " If you had unlimited funding, what would you be able to do with it?" 33:00 What kind of differences of electrode design would you expect patient to patient? 34:45 "These few years ago, you said you were at Rice before, exclusively, and then now moved to both UT Health and Rice. What's that been like?" 42:00"Is there anything that we didn't talk about that you wanted to mention?"  

Dr. Amy Izuno-Garcia is an autism expert who was "literally birthed into it". We have just enough time today to scratch the surface of one of the biggest discussions in psychology right now: how to characterize the autism spectrum. Come on down into our rabbit hole for some myth busting, empathizing, and light philosophical quandary into the nature of humanity–both autistic and allistic.Honorable Mentions:-Dr. Izuno-Garcia's personal and professional journey to her current autism work-challenges…and STRENGTHS (examples: social difficulties, directness, masking/camoflauging, anxiety/internalizing difficulties, intense–but not necessarily “restricted”--interests, perspective taking [cognitive and empathetic and regulation and scope thereof], taking things literally, synesthesia, sensory differences)-”disorder” vs. difference; (how) could we help without labels?-why might it be offensive to say “We're all a little autistic”?-conflating “severity” with “functioning”-building awareness and acceptance without creating “token” or stereotypical characters-self-diagnosis (especially for adults and women); pros and cons of getting a “label”; recommendations and the journey beyond the diagnosis-overemphasis on individual therapy (pssst: there's no therapy “FOR autism”, only for associated distress and challenges) and underemphasis on re-examining society-wide attitudes/environments; ensuring help and support at all levels, not just individual-neurodiversity perspective ~ our *working* description is this: Neurodevelopmental differences/traits/features are scattered across the population, “autism” represents a constellation of those traits (where “they all line up”), and “ASD” or “Autism Spectrum Disorder” is when the traits line up AND are impacting your functioning/causing significant distress; see https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/978-981-13-8437-0.pdf and https://lnkd.in/gBMxzWcX , for critique, see https://lnkd.in/gGEZF7_F)Resources:Autistic Women & Nonbinary Network: https://awnnetwork.org Autistic Self-Advocacy Network (ASAN) https://autisticadvocacy.org AANE (includes volunteer-supported concierge service  https://www.aane.org Kate Loveland, PhD and the CLASS Clinic at UT Health https://med.uth.edu/psychiatry/autism-spectrum-disorder/ https://www.utphysicians.com/provider/katherine-a-loveland/ Amy Izuno-Garcia earned her PhD in school psychology from the University of Houston and completed her doctoral internship at the Marcus Autism Center in the clinical assessment and diagnostics track. She currently works at the CLASS Clinic with Dr. Kate Loveland in Houston, TX. Her research and clinical interests surround improving outcomes for individuals on the autism spectrum through the provision of high-quality assessment, intervention, and consultative services. Her passion for this work is inspired by her experience growing up with family members on the spectrum. In her free time, she enjoys buying too many clothes at thrift stores, playing video games, and trying new restaurants with her husband.---Thanks for listening to The Psychologists Podcast, where we discuss all things psychology through a very personal lens. Drs. Gill and Julia Strait are (married) psychologists living and working in Houston, Texas with two kids, two dogs, and way too much interest in psychology.

In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Suja Rajan following her groundbreaking presentation on the cost-effectiveness of mobile stroke units at the 2022 International Stroke Conference in New Orleans. Dr. Rajan and co-researchers aimed to prove “if outcome improvements associated with MSUs justify [an] increase in costs, thereby making MSUs cost effective, or if the outcome improvements lead to follow-up cost reductions thereby making MSUs cost-saving.” https://www.hmpgloballearningnetwork.com/site/neuro/conference-coverage/mobile-stroke-unit-utilization-cost-effective This was the first study that provided an economic evaluation using 1-year follow-up data on the cost-effectiveness of MSUs. Dr. Suja S. Rajan is a Health Economist and Econometrician, and is currently an Associate Professor at the School of Public Health, UT Health in Houston. Dr. Rajan's research interests include women's health, stroke and cancer health outcomes research, determining the effect of socio-economic determinants of health, identification and resolution of racial-ethnic, socio-economic and gender disparities, evaluating programs that address these disparities, and conducting cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit evaluations to establish the business case for medical interventions.
