#WHERESPARCKA? #PARCKA may be housed at the University of Utah in Research Park, but the work we do takes us nation wide! This week, our staff is spread out doing #great work! From our office in #slcut, to some in #stgeorgeut, a few in #cincinnatioh, and 2 on the east coast!

This Thursday we are celebrating the launch of #UTAonDemand by Via. Local officials will be speaking & we'll be sharing info & treats w. our riders @ Draper FrontRunner from 3-5:30pm. 🍩 Riverton City Bluffdale City Draper City Herriman City @SouthJordanUT Salt Lake County

Very excited to be part of investigative team of #VACSP2024 trial of sublingual vs. injectable #buprenorphine. Led by 2 fabulous WOMEN Scholars ismene @SandySpringerMD and giants in our field. 5 year 20 site national study.

1/ “On Becoming a Healer” is a wonderful new book that helped me think on how docs wind up being less than helpful and far from fulfilled. It’s also about how we live and how we become effective healers. It has rave reviews from Don Berwick Danielle Ofri @kbdesalvo

There may not be a commencement this May, but we want all the #graduates of 2020 to know that we see you & are proud of your #achievements! #Congrats #Classof2020 - you did it! What a #rough last semester that may have been for all students, but it's done! 🙌🙌🙌

1/ I am so thankful the AMA featured our CDC submission on pain/opioids in their email blast to hundreds of medical societies and organizations nationally. I want to note key points made by AMA in their own superb letter (with Ajay Manhapra Adam J. Gordon 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦)

1/I am excited to present our article today online at 11 Central w/ Allyson Varley, PhD : “Promoting Patient-Centeredness in Opioid Deprescribing: A Blueprint for De-implementation Science” It is *not appropriate* to simply count the ⬇️ in opioid prescriptions, and call that “good”

This semester I taught my first University course. At the end of the semester the department honored me with this humbling award for my work as a student mentor and my work at the SLC VA. Thank you Adam J. Gordon 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 for the opportunity to both teach and support your research.
