Andrea (Andi) Tenner, MD, MPH , is a pysician in emergency medicine and internal medicine. She attended Baylor College of Medicine for medical school, University of Illinois at Chicago for her residency, and Columbia University to complete a fellowship in International Emergency Medicine and an MPH with a focus on forced migration. She is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Emergency Medicine and is a UCSF Global Health Sciences Faculty Affiliate Program member. Her field experience includes working in an active conflict zone in the Democratic Republic of Congo, responding to a building collapse in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and overseeing Ebola Isolation Units for the International Rescue Committe in Sierra Leone. Mental Health: HIV and Domestic Violence in Kenya UCSF Mission Bay Mission Hall, Room 1407 Watch video of the lecture HIV+ women experience gender based violence (GBV) at extraordinarily high levels, and over half of the women affected by GBV develop debilitating, chronic depression and/or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Left untreated, depression and PTSD are typically debilitating, chronic conditions and are highly associated with HIV treatment default. The majority of the world's HIV+ women live in sub-Saharan Africa where most of the population has no access to evidence-based mental health care. The MIND study at the Lumumba Health Center, FACES, Kisumu, Kenya, provides evidence-based mental health care for depression and PTSD to HIV+ GBV+ women in Kenya to improve mental, physical and economic health in a scalable manner through a type 1 hybrid effectiveness-implementation design. Susan Meffert, MD, MPH , is an Assistant Professor in the UCSF Department of Psychiatry, a UCSF Global Health Sciences Faculty Affiliate and former UCSF Burke Scholar and Hellman Fellow. She received her BS, BA and MA degrees from Stanford University, MD degree from the University of Iowa College of Medicine and her MPH in international health from Harvard University. Long-term ocular sequelae after Ebola virus disease in Sierra Leone UCSF Mission Bay Mission Hall, Room 1406 Watch video of the lecture The recent Ebola virus disease epidemic in West Africa is the largest in history with close to 29 thousand cases and 11 thousand deaths in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. There has been significant progress in controlling the outbreak in West Africa; in September WHO declared Liberia Ebola free. Although transmission is still occurring in Guinea, over the last several months the weekly number of new cases has ranged from 0 to 4. The unprecedented size of this outbreak generated more Ebola survivors than ever before. Survivors suffer from persistent medical conditions including joint pain, eye problems, headaches and other chronic health issues. Dr. Gaynor was asked by Partners in Health, Wellbody Alliance, Emory University and Sierra Leone Ministry of Health in September and October 2015 to evaluate ocular sequelae in EVD survivors in Sierra Leone and will provide a summary of his findings. Bruce D. Gaynor, MD is an Associate Professor in the Department of Ophthalmology and the FI Proctor Foundation at UCSF. Tuberculosis: Finding the missing 3 million cases November 18, 2015 - 12:00pm - 1:00pm UCSF Mission Bay Mission Hall, Room 1407 Tuberculosis now ranks alongside HIV as the leading cause of death from infectious disease globally. In 2014, there were an estimated 9.6 million new cases and 1.5 million deaths from tuberculosis globally. The WHO has estimated that more than 3 million people are currently not being diagnosed with active tuberculosis and are 'missed' by health systems. To address this challenge, there must be vigorous application of existing control interventions as well as the introduction of new approaches to tuberculosis case finding. In this talk, Dr. Fair will review the current state of tuberculosis globally and discuss her research in Tanzania focused on setting up systems to improve active case finding and contact investigation for tuberculosis. Elizabeth Fair, PhD, MPH is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Medicine. She is also an affiliated faculty member of the UCSF Curry International Tuberculosis Center and UCSF Global Health Sciences. The Forgotten Role of Anesthesia in Global Health Wednesday, October 7 noon to 1:00pm UCSF Mission Bay Mission Hall, Room 1407 Michael Lipnick MD is co-Director of Global Partners in Anesthesia and Surgery (GPAS—globalsurgery.org) and Director of Anesthesia for the UCSF HEAL Global Health Fellowship . Michael will discuss some of the ongoing efforts to improve access to surgical, perioperative, pain and palliative care services in resource-constrained settings, as well as some of the reasons why anesthesia has historically been excluded from the global health dialogue. Leveraging incentives for global tobacco control: Sin taxes and beyond Wednesday, September 16 noon to 1:00pm UCSF Mission Bay Mission Hall, Room 1406 Presenter Justin White, PhD Tobacco use is a leading cause of death worldwide, with most deaths concentrated in low- and middle-income countries. While taxation lies at the center of national tobacco control strategies, recent research points to ways to strengthen tax policy and leverage other types of financial incentives to curb tobacco use. In this talk, Dr. White reviews these recent developments, including the contribution of insights from the field of behavioral economics. Justin White, PhD, is an Assistant Professor of Health Economics, with joint appointments in the Philip R. Lee Institute for Health Policy Studies and the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics. He is also an affiliate of the UCSF Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education and UCSF Global Health Sciences. Groundbreaking but not earth-shattering: Providing clean cookstoves to the bottom billion Wednesday, August 19 noon to 1:00pm UCSF Mission Bay Mission Hall, Room 1407 Presenter Dr. Lisa Thompson, RN, FNP, PhD Associate Professor, Family Health Care Nursing Global Health Sciences PhD Program Director In May 2015, the World Health Assembly adopted a resolution to address the health impacts of air pollution—the world's largest single environmental health risk.
