Researchers and students in all disciplines interested in discussing new ideas, solving problems, and making new connections are invited to WE-SPARK Think Tanks.
A session on Zoom scheduled for 1 to 3 p.m. Friday, June 23, will hear three presentations:
Finding solutions together that take into account the real experiences of providing care to those living with Borderline Personality Disorder in Ontario
Aman Ahluwalia-Cameron (she/her), M.SW., R.SW., School of Social Work, University of Windsor
Stigma manifests in many ways between providers and patients, and at the organizational and policy level. The goal is to discuss with healthcare providers their experiences with supporting those with BPD in our communities, and public health level suggestions on how to disseminate this knowledge about provider based and structural stigma towards those living with BPD.

Joanne Tay, R.N., M.PH., PH.D., Faculty of Nursing, University of Windsor
Joanne Tay is new to Windsor-Essex and works with families and children with complex medical conditions as an RN. Her program of research aims to improve children and families’ access to equitable and quality care and is looking to connect and discuss opportunities to collaborate for recruitment and community partnership.
Endometriosis: Lateral flow assays moving beyond the antibody paradigm
John Trant, PhD, Faculty of Chemistry & Biochemistry, University of Windsor
John Trant is looking to develop a multi-biomarker semi-quantitative point-of-care lateral flow assay coupled with machine learning approaches to address endometriosis, and looking for clinical partners who can help provide patient tissue from the disease, both positive and negative for endo, to validate the assay.
