Parenting is rewarding, but it can also be overwhelming. Between work, family responsibilities, financial pressures, and the daily demands of raising children, stress adds up fast, and guilt often comes with it. This workshop helps parents recognize the signs of stress, understand where the guilt comes from, and learn practical strategies for managing everyday challenges.<\/p>\n\n

Your child comes home from school again, having eaten lunch alone, and you're standing in the kitchen wondering whether to step in or let it play out.<\/p>\n\n

The Reality: <\/strong>Making friends isn't as simple for today's children as it was for previous generations. Many kids need real guidance to build the social and emotional skills that lead to lasting relationships, it doesn't always come naturally anymore.<\/p>\n\n

The Challenge:<\/strong> Parents want to help, but it's easy to cross the line from teaching a skill to solving the problem for your child, which can leave them less equipped to handle the next social hurdle on their own.<\/p>\n\n

What You'll Gain:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\n\t
Understanding of the different types and age stages of friendship.<\/li>\n\t
Age appropriate strategies to help children develop the needed social skills to develop friendships.<\/li>\n\t
A clearer picture of the unique challenges kids face in forming friendships today.<\/li>\n\t
A practical understanding of how to help, not rescue, your child through peer interactions<\/li>\n\t

You'll leave knowing how to guide from the sidelines, so your child builds the skills, not just the friendship.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

Eating well after 50 isn't about dieting \u2014 it's about understanding what your body needs now. This workshop covers how aging affects appetite, metabolism, and nutritional needs; key nutrients to prioritize; and what current research says about weight and physical activity. Includes practical guidance for family caregivers managing their own nutrition alongside caregiving responsibilities.<\/p>\n\n
The Reality:<\/strong> Nutritional needs change meaningfully with age, affecting energy, muscle mass, immune function, and the risk of chronic disease, but most of us are still working from guidelines that don't account for these shifts.<\/p>\n\n
The Challenge: <\/strong>Finding reliable, practical guidance that applies to where you actually are. Most nutrition information targets younger adults or focuses on weight loss rather than healthy aging.<\/p>\n\n
What You'll Gain:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\n\t
A clear picture of how aging affects your dietary needs, appetite, and key nutrients<\/li>\n\t
Evidence-based guidance on weight, BMI, and physical activity after 50<\/li>\n\t
Strategies for sustaining your own nutrition when caregiving is pulling your attention elsewhere<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
This session is practical and grounded in current research. Whether you're focused on your own health or trying to support someone else's, you'll leave with tools you can actually use.<\/p>\n\n
Open to all U of A employees and family members. Especially relevant for adults 50+ and those in caregiving roles.<\/p>\n\n

Symposium Objective<\/h2>\n\n
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing biomedical research and medical practice. AI has great potential to improve and accelerate research discovery as well as medical treatments and diagnostics and to truly usher the era of personalized discovery and personalized medicine. It is important to understand where AI stands now, how it may be able to help answer grand challenges in biomedicine, as well as its limitations and the potential dangers of misusing AI. <\/p>\n\n
The 9^{th<\/sup> Annual reimagine Health Research Symposium at the U of A College of Medicine - Phoenix is a daylong event that will feature world renowned clinical and scientific researchers who are on the cutting edge of using AI for discovery, therapeutics, and diagnostics. The symposium will culminate with an open question and answer panel discussion comprising the invited experts in the field aimed at enhancing interaction between attendees and speakers.<\/p>\n\n}

Help save a life with three simple steps. Just as people trained in CPR help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn to recognize the warning signs of suicide and to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. Each year, thousands of Americans like you are saying \"yes\" to saving the life of a friend, colleague, family member, or neighbor.<\/p>\n\n

Overview<\/h2>\n\n
Academic Excellence Day began in 1999 when Maricopa Medical Center (now Valleywise Health) and Mayo Clinic Scottsdale Departments of Academic Affairs developed a program to highlight resident training program research efforts. The program was a success, and in 2004, the Arizona Medical Education Consortium (AzMEC) was asked to participate.<\/p>\n\n
The concept of Academic Excellence Day was developed and approved by all of the Phoenix-area members (all allopathic programs in Maricopa County) and the first city-wide Academic Excellence Day was held in 2005 at Mayo Clinic under the direction of AzMEC President, Michael D. Grossman, MD<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
The program was held annually on the first Wednesday in May and rotated at the participatory hospitals until the University of Arizona College of Medicine \u2013 Phoenix formally opened. Each of the participatory hospitals paid a fee to participate based on the number of residents the hospital had and continued that way until 2015 when the MICA Medical Foundation began providing funding each year. In 2020, the format went virtual in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to allow people to participate and judge in the safety of their own space. After two years of a virtual format, 2023 will again be offering a hybrid format of virtual posters and an in-person oral presentation event.<\/p>\n\n
The mission of Academic Excellence Day is to promote an environment of academic excellence amongst trainees in our participating institutions. Academic Excellence Day will provide an opportunity for residents and fellows in training programs in the greater Phoenix area to showcase the volume of bench and clinical research and quality improvement initiatives being performed.<\/p>\n\n
There will be an option to virtually join the oral presentation event through Zoom. A link will be made available and sent to those who RSVP as the event date nears.
\nIf you have questions about the event, please contact the Academic Excellence Day Coordinator at PBC-AEDPhx@arizona.edu<\/a><\/em>

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends that American adults spend 150\u2013300 minutes each week performing moderate physical activity, such as brisk walking, dancing, hiking, practicing yoga, riding a bike, or even scrubbing a bathtub.
