Seminar Title<\/h3>\n\n
\n\t
Soft, Skin-Interfaced Electronic and Microfluidic Sensors in Medicine<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
This talk describes the key ideas and presents some of the most recent device examples, including<\/p>\n\n
\n\t
Wireless, battery-free electronic devices with applications in continuous monitoring of vital signs and de novo metrics of health status with an emphasis on maternal, neonatal and pediatric populations, for use in the hospital and the home<\/li>\n\t
Microfluidic platforms that can capture, manipulate and perform biomarker analysis on microliter volumes of sweat, with applications in rapid diagnostics for cystic fibrosis and kidney health.<\/li>\n<\/ol>","editable":false,"start":"2026-11-18T11:00:00","end":"2026-11-18T12:00:00","backgroundColor":"#3a87ad","borderColor":"#3a87ad"},{"title":"21","id":"1-0","eid":"46003","url":"https:\/\/phoenixmed.arizona.edu\/about\/events\/caregiver-gatherings-moving-forward-identity-sustainability-and-next-steps","des":"
Whether you found this group in September or you're arriving today, caregiving probably looks different to you now than it did when you started, whichever day that was.<\/p>\n\n
This final spring gathering revisits a question we asked back in September: what's changed since caregiving became part of your life? We'll open the floor to talk about caregiver identity beyond the role, celebrate the expertise this group has built together, and look at what LWC resources and programming continue from here.<\/p>\n\n
New to the group? You're still welcome. This isn't an ending, just a good place to pause.<\/p>\n\n

You've filled out the same form three times because no one could tell you which office needed it. You've wondered if you're missing something on the financial or legal side of caregiving that everyone else seems to already know.<\/p>\n\n
This session opens a candid conversation about the financial and legal side of caregiving: reduced work hours, long-term planning, and navigating insurance systems. Many people in this circle have already been through it and are ready to share real, tested advice with anyone still figuring it out.<\/p>\n\n

Somewhere between doctor's appointments, phone calls, and everyone else's needs, yours got pushed to the bottom of the list. Maybe you can't remember the last time you asked what you needed.<\/p>\n\n
Caregiver Gatherings continue into spring, still a space to belong: share what you're navigating, offer advice, or simply listen. This session turns attention to you: what \"\"not enough time\"\" really means for working caregivers, and what sustainable self-care can actually look like. We'll briefly touch on the difference between burnout, stress, and compassion fatigue, then open the floor to talk about what's genuinely helped other caregivers find balance.<\/p>\n\n
Your needs matter too. Whether this is your first gathering or you're returning from the fall, welcome.<\/p>\n\n

Does self-care keep getting pushed to the bottom of your to-do list? If the idea of adding one more task to your day sounds exhausting, this session is for you.

Yet American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and Other Pacific Islander (\u201cIndigenous\u201d) children and adolescents continue to face barriers to accessing culturally responsive care. The American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Native American Child Health recommends that pediatric healthcare professionals advocate for initiatives and develop partnerships with Indigenous communities to advance equitable care. <\/p>\n\nThe Children\u2019s Hospital of Philadelphia established an Indigenous Health Unit (IHU) dedicated to identifying healthcare needs for Indigenous children and adolescents traveling locally and nationally for care. Guided by community-informed, bidirectional learning model, the IHU bridges local Indigenous community expertise and institutional allyship to shape program development.

While acute heavy metal poisoning is rare, chronic or elevated exposure may contribute to significant health concerns. Join experts from clinical toxicology, laboratory science, and public health for a multidisciplinary discussion of heavy metal exposure in Arizona. Participants will explore clinical presentations and risk factors, appropriate laboratory testing and interpretation, common exposure sources, and strategies to help reduce risk. The session will also highlight resources available to healthcare providers and communities concerned about heavy metal exposure.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Outcome Objectives<\/h3>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Recognize clinical presentations and exposure histories that may warrant evaluation for heavy metal exposure.<\/li>\n\t<li>Select appropriate laboratory tests and interpret results for suspected heavy metal exposure, including consideration of appropriate specimen matrices.<\/li>\n\t<li>Describe common sources, pathways, and potential health effects associated with acute and chronic heavy metal exposure.<\/li>\n\t<li>Identify evidence-based exposure reduction strategies and public health resources available to support patients and communities at risk.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nFor more information, contact Melanie Esher, MAdm<\/strong>, at <a href=\"#\" data-mail-to=\"zrfure\/ng\/gryrzrqvpvar\/qbg\/nevmban\/qbg\/rqh\" data-replace-inner=\"@email\">@email<\/a><\/p>","editable":false,"start":"2026-10-27T10:00:00","end":"2026-10-27T11:00:00","backgroundColor":"#3a87ad","borderColor":"#3a87ad"},{"title":"02","id":"30-0","eid":"45847","url":"https:\/\/phoenixmed.arizona.edu\/about\/events\/caregiver-gatherings-build-circle","des":"You've been the one everyone calls: the one who remembers appointments, refills prescriptions, answers the late-night texts.

The program was a success, and in 2004, the Arizona Medical Education Consortium (AzMEC) was asked to participate.<\/p>\n\nThe 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\nThe 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\nThe 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\nThere 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 <a href=\"#\" data-mail-to=\"cop-nrqcuk\/ng\/nevmban\/qbg\/rqh\" data-replace-inner=\"@email\">PBC-AEDPhx@arizona.edu<\/a><\/em> \n <\/p>","editable":false,"start":"2024-05-01T12:00:00","end":"2024-05-01T17:30:00","backgroundColor":"#3a87ad","borderColor":"#3a87ad"},{"title":"23","id":"53-0","eid":"43741","url":"https:\/\/phoenixmed.arizona.edu\/about\/events\/move-arizona-2024","des":"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. \n \nMove Arizona is a workplace movement initiative led by Life & Work Connections.
