Dr. Michael Harris-Love is a first generation college grad & ended up in a lab after searching for work to pay for car repairs. He says, "being a scientist was never an idea that was on the table" but through mentorship, he has created his own path, now mentoring others and understands the value of non-traditional students.
Dr. Tami Struessel (Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado DPT Program) & Colleen Rapp (Journeyman and press operator at The Denver Post & Tami's former patient in PT) come onto HET Podcast to chat about Colleen's perspective on PT from the patient's perspective, details about the University of Colorado's DPT Program, and an upcoming fundraising opportunity for scholarship for University of Colorado DPT Students.
We are pleased to announce the establishment of the Joanne Posner-Mayer Endowed Chair in Physical Therapy at the University of Colorado School of Medicine at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus.
Colleen Rapp blazed a trail as a woman in the physically demanding job of press operator at the Denver Post. Living healthfully meant simply punching the clock and doing her job the best way she knew how. When chronic pain necessitated shoulder surgery, followed by physical therapy, it transformed her life.
LIVE from the Combined Sections Meeting in Washington DC, I welcome Dr. Mike Pascoe on the show to discuss the use of social media to disseminate physical therapy educational resources. Mike Pascoe, PhD, is a neurophysiologist and assistant professor in the physical therapy program at University of Colorado. His scholarly efforts center around the investigation of constructivist approaches in technology-enabled learning environments (e.g., wiki usage, interactive modules, cadaver skin examination, etc..) to improve learning outcomes and student satisfaction in anatomy courses.

Happy New Year! We hope you had a wonderful holiday season! Last year, we kicked off 2018 with Dr. Paul Mintken and we’re doing the same thing this year. Paul, Jeff, and John discuss predatory journals and how to spot and avoid them. They also discuss a presentation that Paul recently did on mindfulness and how important it is not only to us as clinicians, but to our patients. Paul shares how to apply mindfulness to ourselves and how to teach it to our patients.
