Global Health Opportunity Abroad

Global Impact Corps: Global Health Volunteer Abroad Opportunity
http://www.uniteforsight.org/volunteer-abroad

Join Unite For Sight’s Global Impact Corps for a hands-on, immersive and unique global health experience. A transformative volunteer abroad experience for students and professionals, Unite For Sight is renowned as the highest quality global health immersion and volunteer abroad program worldwide. Unite For Sight prides itself on offering the best global health experience for our volunteers, coupled with the highest quality healthcare delivery programs with our local doctor partners.
Locations of Year-Round Health Care Delivery: Ghana, Honduras, and India
(volunteer for 7 days, 15 days, 20 days, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, 10 weeks, or more)
What do Global Impact Fellows do? Unite For Sight’s Global Impact Corps Program is an immersive global health experience for students and professionals who are interested in public health, international development, medicine, or social entrepreneurship. Fellows participate with and learn from Unite For Sight's talented local partner doctors who have provided care to 2.2 million patients living in poverty, including more than 95,000 sight-restoring surgeries. Fellows assist with patient education, visual acuity testing, patient intake, distributing the glasses and medication prescribed by the local doctors, and other important support tasks.  They also have the opportunity to observe the surgeries provided by the local doctors.  Additionally, fellows may participate in the Global Impact Lab, an optional program for those interested in pursuing research. For example, we currently have fellows pursuing research studies about medication management, traditional medicine practices, and patient barriers to eye care.
Unite For Sight is the only organization in the world that:

• is a healthcare delivery organization that also offers immersive global health education opportunities for students and professionals;
• uses 100% of all donations and funds submitted to directly provide care for patients who are otherwise unable to access or afford care;
• directly teaches the importance of supporting and assisting local professionals in their own social ventures to eliminate disparities in their communities and countries;
• offers an opportunity to learn from local medical professionals about effective strategies to reach the hardest-to-reach patients in villages, slums, and refugee camps;
• develops comprehensive training materials in cultural competency, ethics, and global health best practices to prepare its volunteers for a high-impact immersive experience.

Seventh Annual Microbiology and Cell Science Undergraduate Research Symposium On Friday, April 21st, 2017

 All micro majors - show and present your research!!!!!!! It looks great on your CV/resume and you can share with our faculty and your colleagues what you have been up to in the lab~

We VERY STRONGLY encourage all students who are writing an honor's thesis and who are signed up for research credit to present your work at the conference. It is perfectly fine to work with/under a graduate student/post-doc and still show the work you have done in the lab. We are aware that many of you only help and don't have their own project.

There will be a separate category for the BEST projects from our microbiology teaching labs! Talk to your TA if you qualify to present your work (from the fall 16 or spring 17)

Please sign up for the conference here (including abstract and other info about your research):

https://ufl.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_8qcJ8UPuGFyK5Tf

For any questions email Dr. Joe Larkin who is in charge of the symposium this year and who is copied on this email.

Abstracts are due no later than April 13th, 2017.

We will have special guest speakers TBD for 2017 - I just heard through the grape vine that the speaker is AWESOME!
Door prizes, t-shirt sale AND FREE FOOD!!!!!!!!

Cheers,

Dr Oli

Research Speed Dating Event

The UF Society for Microbiology in Medicine will be hosting our 2nd Research Speed Dating event on April 6th at 6:30 PM in the Harrell Medical Education Building North Learning Studio (room 125) for undergraduates/post-baccalaureates looking to get involved in research!

The event will be structured as a "speed dating" event. So each graduate student/professor will be seated in one table and we will have groups of students rotate around the tables. This way everyone gets a chance to talk to all the graduate students/professors.

The event is business casual. Please bring a resume and your schedule for next semester!!!

If you are interested, please sign up here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1JXXB9V2EjHBKPVezx3BAeuRs6N9lCZmQkfzInH3znUg/viewform?edit_requested=true

You can visit each program’s “room” and have direct access to faculty and staff. Learn more about programs, get application tips, and find out about admission requirements. You’ll also have access to a CASPA representative so you can get details about the application process. The best part? It’s FREE!
