An enormous congratulations to our very own Jennifer Swanberg for being one of the few faculty selected for the Marion and Jasper Whiting Foundation grant!
In the words of Dr. Swanberg, “My proposal to the Marion and Jasper Whiting Foundation seeks to deepen the integration of mindfulness into public health, health science, and health professions education through collaboration with leading European scholars. By learning from their expertise, I aim to enhance the Mindfulness for Health & Wellbeing undergraduate course at Johnson & Wales University. This course equips future public health and healthcare practitioners with tools to manage stress, build resilience, and apply holistic approaches to care, ultimately improving patient and population health outcomes while reducing practitioner burnout in culturally diverse settings. The Marion and Jasper Whiting Fellowship will support my study with European colleagues and help bring evidence-based mindfulness practices to the next generation of health professionals.”
We cannot be more proud of you Dr. Swanberg and once again, congratulations! 🎉🎊
