Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth.

The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you. Each week will highlight a different guided mindfulness meditation. No experience is required.

Helané Wahbeh is a clinical researcher at OHSU. She specializes in mind-body medicine and has a NIH grant to study mechanisms of mindfulness meditation in posttraumatic stress disorder. She has completed a four year meditation teacher training program and was trained by Jon Kabat-Zinn in mindfulness meditation. She has had her own personal mediation practice for over ten years.

Dr. Xiaolin Nan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at OHSU. He received bachelor's degrees in Chemistry and Economics, and a master's degree in Chemistry from Peking University, and a Ph.D. in Biophysics from Harvard University. He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, University of California. His graduate studies focused on wet-chemistry approaches to fabricating aligned single wall carbon nanotubes and the biophysical analysis of dynamic processes in living cells using high time resolution, spatial precision and chemical selectivity strategies. As a postdoctoral fellow he established a unique biological system for controlled expression of tagged proteins for single-molecule counting and localization using super resolution imaging based on PALM and STORM principles. He investigated the oncogenic processes and intracellular trafficking of Ras-GTP dimer formation and Raf activation.
Spatial Systems Biology Research is conducted as part of the OHSU Center for Spatial Systems Biomedicine (OCSSB), which is dedicated to the use of advanced measurement technologies (omic and multiscale imaging). He joined OHSU's Center for Spatial Systems Biomedicine (OCSSB) in 2012. OCSSB acts as a nucleus to integrate, refine and focus the new generation of measurement and computing technologies.

Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth.

The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you. Each week will highlight a different guided mindfulness meditation. No experience is required.

Helané Wahbeh is a clinical researcher at OHSU. She specializes in mind-body medicine and has a NIH grant to study mechanisms of mindfulness meditation in posttraumatic stress disorder. She has completed a four year meditation teacher training program and was trained by Jon Kabat-Zinn in mindfulness meditation. She has had her own personal mediation practice for over ten years.

How digitizing human beings reboots the future of medicine

12 Jun 2013 19:00:00 GMT

OHSU Auditorium
Wednesday, June 12, 2013, 12 – 1pm

Pioneering geneticist and cardiologist Eric Topol, M.D., will share his perspective on the coming era of "big data" and the transformative impact of the digitization of medicine, focusing on the convergence of genomics and innovative wireless health care "apps" — a topic covered in Dr. Topol's recent book The Creative Destruction of Medicine (Basic Books).

Will we soon be checking vital signs on our phones? Dr. Topol is currently the director of the Scripps Translational Science Institute in La Jolla, Calif., where he also holds an endowed chair of innovative medicine. Previously, he was chief of cardiovascular medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, a 2009 TEDMED speaker, and named the #1 most influential Physician Executive in 2012 by Modern Healthcare.

The School of Medicine is proud to partner with the Oregon Clinical & Translational Research Institute (OCTRI) for this lecture.

Students pick from an array of highly applied courses that are relevant to their career goals, and take those courses at times that fit into their working lives.

Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth.

The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you. Each week will highlight a different guided mindfulness meditation. No experience is required.

The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth.
The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you. Each week will highlight a different guided mindfulness meditation. No experience is required.

Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth.
