University of New England - COMmunicator: December 2002

What got you interested in the Medicine and Aging Club?
I was a member of the club last year and am very interested in geriatrics. I’m very close with my grandparents, which got me interested in the geriatric population.

In my opinion, the geriatric population in our society is not as valued as I believe they should be and are underrepresented as well.

How do you see yourself representing the geriatric population?
By working with the Medicine and Aging Club, I’m hoping to spark an interest in future physicians to work with the geriatric population.

What programs has the Medicine and Aging Club done so far and what are your plans for the remainder of the academic year?
We have had two speakers so far this year. Marilyn Gugliucci, Ph.D., Director, Bodywise Center for Health and Fitness and the advisor to the Medicine and aging Club spoke on Empowered Elders. Don Banick, MSlll, spoke on his experiences and research as an American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR) Fellow.

We are also working on a fundraiser with the Harvard Upper New England Geriatric Education Center recruiting student evaluators for their on-line Alzheimer’s module.

The money we earn from our fundraising efforts will be used to bring in more speakers and for the start up cost of becoming a National Chapter of the American Geriatrics Society Student Chapter.

We have plans to work with Charlotte Paolini, D.O.on a regular basis assisting with Health and Physical exams for patients over the age of 65, and are in the planning stages of a Murder Mystery Dinner Theater for the Spring.

We are also looking into being involved in the community by working with an Adult Day Care or the Southern Maine Area on Aging.

This is quite a bit for one year. How is the Medicine and Aging Club planning to continue this mission in the future?
Becoming a student chapter of the National Chapter of the American Geriatrics Society has helped to add some momentum and the members from the MSl class are very active and are eager to keep the ball rolling.

Council of Osteopathic Student Government Presidents (COSGP) Report
SGA President, Jodi Hiland (OMSII), and SGA Vice-President, Kate Dalton (OMSII), recently participated in the November Quarterly Meeting for the Council of Osteopathic Student Government Presidents (COSGP) in San Francisco, CA. Both students participated in Resolution Writing workshops to address student concerns with issues such as Joint Match, Branch Campuses, Student Health Insurance, and Comlex-PE.

This year, UNECOM is a member of the Student Services Committee for the Council. Committee discussions centered on a restructuring of the application and selection process for the Student DO of the Year Award. Changes for this year’s award include the addition of an essay writing component and selection of one National Student DO of the Year from the winners at each campus. The Committee also sponsored the National Student Seminar: “Osteopathic Medicine Beyond Borders” at the AOA Convention.

With information collected at the conference, the UNECOM SGA is currently working on constructing a survey for interns and residents to gather information from a post-graduate perspective on the Joint Match. This survey will be presented at the next COSGP meeting in February, for all osteopathic colleges to administer to their graduate students.

Aluminum Can Tab Recycling Program
Members of the American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians (ACOFP), are working on a national project called the "Bones of Still", this includes a friendly contest among osteopathic medical schools in the collection of aluminum can tabs. Money received from recycling the tabs will be donated to the Ronald MacDonald House. While visiting with friends family over the holidays, please take a minute to collect the tabs from their beverage cans. Collection containers for the tabs are located in the MSl and MSl classrooms, or feel free to drop them off in the Office of Recruitment, Student and Alumni Services.

109^th AOA Convention Sees Current UNECOM Student and Alum Assume Offices
At the 109^th Annual meeting of the American Osteopathic Association, various specialty groups held concurrent meetings in tandem with the association’s annual meeting.

The American College of Osteopathic Emergency Physicians - Student Chapters (ACOEP-SC) held their meetings during the recently held convention in San Francisco. Program Co-chair of this year’s program was UNECOM student Mike Remley, MS III. Remley was responsible for inviting Lt. Col. Fred Brennan, D.O. (UNECOM ‘92) to be this year’s ACOEP-SC keynote speaker. In addition, Duane Siberski, D.O. (UNECOM ‘92) was also a presenter to the group.

Kaiser Foundation Invites Applications for the Barbara Jordan Health Policy Scholars Program
The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation ( http://kff.org/ ) established the Barbara Jordan Health Policy Scholars Program at Howard University to help expand the pool of students of color interested in the field of health policy.

The program brings talented Latino, African American, Asian/Pacific Islander, and American Indian/Alaska Native college seniors and recent graduates to Washington, D.C., where they work in congressional offices and learn about health policy. Through the nine-week program (May 24 – July 29,2005), scholars gain knowledge about federal legislative procedure and health policy issues, while further developing their critical thinking and leadership skills. In addition to an internship in a congressional office, scholars participate in seminars and site visits to augment their knowledge of healthcare issues and write and present a health policy research memo.

Eligible candidates must be U.S. citizens who are members of a racial/ethnic minority group and will be seniors or recent graduates of an accredited U.S. college or university in the fall of 2005.

Scholars receive approximately $5,000 in support, which includes a stipend of $1,500 upon completion of the program; a daily expense allowance for meals and local transportation; transportation/airfare to and from Washington, D.C.; and lodging at Howard University.

See the Kaiser Family Foundation Web site for complete program information and application procedures. RFP Link: http://kff.org/about/jordanscholars.cfm

Summer Research Experience for Medical Students
The Hospital for Sick Children, affectionately called Sick Kids, is offering a 12 week program during the summer of 2005, which will introduce Pediatrics Emergency Medicine.

Participants will have the opportunity to gain further knowledge on clinical research and improve their research skills.

NIH Clinical Electives
The National Institue of Health (NIH) has opportunities for medical students. Click here for information on the NIH Clinical Electives Program, www.training.nih.gov/student/cep/index.asp.

The Epidemiology Program Office (EPO) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) offers an elective in epidemiology for senior medical and veterinary students. The purpose of the elective is to provide an introduction to preventive medicine, public health and the principles of applied epidemiology.

Elective students are offered the opportunity to actively assist in epidemiologic investigations of infectious diseases and areas such as cancer, congenital malformations, environmental and occupational diseases, injuries (intentional and unintentional), chronic diseases, and reproductive health and population dynamics. Students are also exposed to the day-to-day operation of CDC's nationwide surveillance system.

Diverse projects are offered for students to work on during their elective. Some participants have become co-authors on publications of major health importance. Other students receive experience in applied epidemiology through participation in the investigation of public health problems throughout the United States and the analysis of public health data.

Most elective assignments are based at CDC headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. However, assignments to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in Cincinnati, Ohio, Morgantown, West Virginia, or Anchorage, Alaska, can be arranged.

Occasionally, students are assigned to a state or local health department; the Indian Health Service in Albuquerque, New Mexico; the Division of Vector-borne Infectious Diseases in Fort Collins, Colorado; or the Arctic Investigation Lab in Anchorage, Alaska.

Elective students are often supervised by a select group of "medical detectives" known as Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) Officers. Many of these officers were former participants of the Epidemiology Elective Program.
