THINQ is a health care improvement team within the UCLA Department of Medicine that aims to foster innovation and collaboration by forming inter-professional teams to catapult new solutions to real-world clinical problems specific to the Department of Medicine patient population. Our ultimate goal is to create an ideal environment in which providers, staff, and patients feel most comfortable. We are a motivated group of undergraduate and graduate students working with physicians at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center to conduct clinical research and make proposals for the betterment of healthcare quality. Our program involves research, physician shadowing experience, speaker events from individuals in various healthcare fields, as well as discussions about diverse topics in the healthcare industry that affect patients and physicians. We shadow patient rounds, collect data, present research, and review papers on health care in order to propose solutions. We have had opportunities this year to present at several national undergraduate research conferences and submit manuscripts to undergraduate research journals. We offer mentorship, professional development, and the opportunity to view medicine through an intersectional perspective.

Aims Nurturing Leadership – working with healthcare students and young professionals to develop our healthcare leaders of the future Fostering Frontline Innovation – engaging, developing and guiding clinicians to deliver innovative solutions Empowering and Valuing the Next Generation of Clinical Leaders – supporting our clinicians to use their talent effectively Values The Healthcare Leadership Academy values accessibility and equity and believes all healthcare professionals should have the means to learn about and engage in leadership activities; at any level and at any time. The Healthcare Leadership Academy believes inclusivity is key to leadership. Leadership should not be the arena of a chosen few but of all those with innovative visions, ideas and solutions. Background The Healthcare Leadership Academy formed in response to demand from young clinicians and medical students to learn about leadership. Founded by Dr Johann Malawana (Course Director), former leader of the Junior Doctor Dispute, and a team of like-minded professionals (Our Faculty and Assistant Course Directors) the Healthcare Leadership Academy launched on 20th December 2016. HLA houses an exciting faculty from across the health sector and beyond. Their shared aim is to inspire the next generation of healthcare professionals and develop their understanding of leadership. Too often in healthcare, leadership is confused with management. Through a combination of mentoring, Socratic discussion, and philosophical exploration, HLA aims to inspire our scholars to change the world of healthcare, one small step at a time. At a time when the world seems an ever more worrying place, it is important that the next generation of healthcare professionals truly understand how to motivate the people they work with in order to best look after the populations they serve.

We are Ontario's best butcher, specializing in locally raised, organic meat, sustainable seafood, fresh organic produce, gourmet foods, and so much more. Our stores offers a direct connection to the food source, dealing with over 75 farmers within 100 miles of Toronto offering our customers premium meats, unconventional cuts, fresh seasonal produce and both fresh water and ocean fish. OUR MISSION: To ensure your food is produced the way nature intended. Organic food is not a novelty… it was the past and will be the future. Eating fruits, vegetables, grains, or meats grown with pesticides, herbicides, growth hormones, antibiotics, and other un-natural chemicals is ludicrous and unsustainable. Do you remember the days when you could walk into your local butcher shop to buy fresh meat grown locally by a farmer who cared about his animals? When the cows would graze in large pastures? When the chickens had access to both indoors & outdoors and had time to sleep? And when growth was determined by the animals eating habits, not growth hormones and antibiotics. For most of us, unfortunately, the answer is no. Industrialization over the last few decades has brought us to this day of antibiotic stuffed, water injected, assembly-line cut, pre-packaged meat. The Healthy Butcher aims to restore an area of the food industry that has wrongly disappeared. We are your good 'ole fashion butcher. We also offer home delivery thehealthybutcher.com
