Multiple studies demonstrate that mind-body programs can reduce physician stress and improve well-being. However, there is large heterogeneity in these programs and limited data on long-term effectiveness. Dr. Dossett, General internist specialized in integrative medicine of the University of California, will present data from three different studies of the 8-session Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART) Program collected at two different academic medical centers at three different times (pre-COVID, COVID-onset, and a couple of years into the pandemic).

Findings include significant reductions in perceived stress and burnout and improved well-being up to six months following program completion.

The lecture will also discuss some of the challenges associated with conducting this type of research.

Participation is possible both in person and online.
