UTHealth faculty, staff, and students celebrate Many Faces. One Mission. campaign launch

在正在进行的COVID-19大流行的挑战中,我们在Uthealth历史上发起了最雄心勃勃的筹款活动的公共阶段,因为我们的支持者在2021财政年度以有远见的慷慨捐助。

今年,共有2286个捐助者向大学贡献了近8300万美元,将UTHEADY END赋额增加到8.05亿美元,并加强了我们教职员工和学生为解决我们社区最紧迫的健康挑战所做的综合努力。

许多面孔。一个任务。
4月8日,我们公开宣布了大学的首次全面运动,许多面孔。一个任务。这项空前的计划旨在筹集5亿美元,以改善我们社区的健康和福祉。自2015年竞选阶段开始以来,我们的支持者已经提供了超过4.42亿美元,使我们达到了总目标的88%。该活动重点关注三个主要影响领域:

  • Advancing brain and behavioral health to establish UTHealth as a leader in brain and behavioral health, dedicated to developing better treatments and making mental health care accessible to all.
  • Training the next generation of health professionals to address shortages in critical health professions by deepening our commitment to the next generation of practitioners and innovators—and the experts who educate them.
  • Improving Houston’s health to enhance efforts to save lives and improve health outcomes by amplifying collaborative research, encouraging a passion for learning, and promoting patient care and public health initiatives.

对行为健康的承诺
In line with the campaign’s focus on advancing brain and behavioral health, the John S. Dunn Foundation made an extraordinary $25 million commitment to launch behavioral health initiatives at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth—the latest example of the foundation’s longstanding commitment to this critical field of health care.

为了纪念基金会的慷慨,UTHealthwill establish the John S. Dunn Behavioral Sciences Center to support innovative behavioral health research, education, and patient care. The pledge will provide critical new resources for mental health, including research to advance discoveries in our understanding and treatment of these diseases; academic environment enrichment for fellows, residents, and students; a lecture series to bring experts to share their knowledge with faculty and students; and faculty endowments to recruit and retain outstanding talent.

锻造连接
为了帮助促进校友之间的联系,该大学成立了Uthealth校友社区,Uthealth校友社区是一个将整个大学和六所学校中的毕业生联系起来的中央枢纽。外围beplay这个在线社区为校友提供了个人和专业成长的新机会。

毕业生可以与前同学联系,查找校友活动,发布照片,并创建或加入专业团体。他们可以通过担任现任学生的导师并将最近的毕业生与工作机会联系起来。他们还可以通过查找导师,发布或寻找职位空缺,并将其业务添加到社区的在线目录中来促进他们的职业目标。

Uthealth Live
我们的教师提供了有关影响我们周围生活的健康科学主题的丰富知识,我们珍视我们朋友和支持者向这些著名专家学习的一切机会。当我们从Covid-19引起的面对面事件中枢纽时,我们创建了Uthealth Live,这是一系列虚拟活动,与会者可以在其中与我们的顶级教育者和科学家见面,同时深入了解关键健康领域。

我们在这个财政年度举行了七个活动,重点介绍了包括痴呆症,癌症,Covid-19和心脏健康在内的主题。事实证明,Uthealth Live非常受欢迎,经常吸引100多名与会者。

大流行研究开始产生beplay苹果手机能用吗结果
When the COVID-19 pandemic first began, the generosity of our supporters helped launch a series of research initiatives to better understand and treat the virus. Of particular note, the COVID-19+ Cohort Study—a collaboration with partners in the Texas Medical Center and Greater Houston HealthConnect—examined records from 215,142 patients with COVID-19 throughout Texas, aiming to identify factors such as demographics and comorbidities that lead to worse outcomes and providing knowledge that can help clinicians optimize treatment plans. The study recently began a new phase in which researchers will examine records from both adults and children to examine outcomes across all age ranges.

另一项正在进行的研究探讨了该病毒最致命的并发症之一的急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)的潜在治疗方法。在一项临床试验中,我们旨在确定一种称为vadadustat的药物是否可以通过减少肺部炎症和液体积累来帮助COVID-19患者。美国国防部在今年早些时候授予了510万美元的赠款,以扩大研究,这是慈善事业对早期研究的支持如何导致大量外beplay苹果手机能用吗部资金和加速进步的示例。

Looking ahead
随着健康科学领域的新挑战和机遇,Uthealth的许多面孔继续表现出他们致力于在各种情况和季节中挽救和改善生命的承诺。

“在过去的一年中,我们的教职员工,学生和支持者共同完成了很棒的事情,”开发与公共事务高级副总裁MBA MBA Kevin J. Foyle说。“我们期待完成许多面孔。一个任务。campaign strong as we prepare for a future of limitless possibilities.”
