University of Utah Health Research’s Post

What does the future hold for the partnerships between the health and care sector and the life sciences industry? In the last session of our life sciences event we'll be asking exactly that, along with a panel of experts. Book your place today! https://lnkd.in/eW6UY_yN

Closing this seminar season with speaker Dr. Christian Ochsner, who is an Assistant Professor at CERGE-EI and a Research Associate at SIAW-University of St. Gallen. His research focuses on understanding how critical moments in history shape socio-economic trajectories and still impact society today. His work delves into development economics, political economy, and cultural economy, exploring the role of new technologies and the origins of societal norms and behaviors. In a recent study, Dr. Ochsner investigated the impact of the 1918 influenza pandemic on communities and families, specifically looking at how adverse health shocks influenced health behavior and policy statements. By analyzing individual death-register data and political support for compulsory vaccination, Dr. Ochsner found that higher flu mortality led to decreased support for vaccination and health technologies, while also affecting perceptions towards healthcare, technology, and education reforms. This research sheds light on the public reactions to major health crises and highlights the challenges in advancing health policy and technology during times of crisis. https://buff.ly/4aP8a5C

In the latest "Tomorrow's Needs" piece, College of Sciences and Arts Dean, LaReesa Wolfenbarger, and Health Research Institute Director, Caryn Heldt, delve into three critical questions that could shape the future of health and well-being. They both explore how the same framework that extended life and health in the 20th century could address today’s pressing challenges in health care and the environment.

Join me as I moderate a discussion with Drs. Angela Hagaman East Tennessee State University, Craig Henderson, Sam Houston State University, Bettina Hoeppner Massachusetts General Hospital / Harvard Medical School, and Sierra Castedo de Martell, Chestnut Health Systems regarding important questions about the PRSS/RCC workforce and the role they play within their recovery ecosystems. Such questions include: (1) the specific activities PRSS engage in and in which settings they conduct them, (2) how benefit from services is best operationalized and measured, and (3) the economic valuation of these services.

Discover the fascinating concept of the Clinical Theory of Everything in our latest video! This theory aims to bring together science and medicine, offering a unified framework for understanding the universe. Join us as we delve into this theory and its potential impact on our understanding of reality and health. https://lnkd.in/gTPrTPCK

Share your work at the 17th Annual Science of D&I Conference! This year's theme "Moving Fast and Slow: Optimizing the Pace of Implementation" will address the underexplored concept of the pace of D&I. The D&I science community has known for decades that it takes too long for too little of evidence-based care to reach everyone who could benefit. Much energy has been spent on the second part of the equation—can we increase the volume of evidence-based care delivered—with less attention to the optimal pace at which this should happen. In the seventeenth year of the D&I Conference, we will explore methodological advancements, challenges and opportunities to understanding how to investigate and optimize implementation pace across health care, and community and public health systems.
