Greetings!

Last month, June marked an impressive month of collaborative initiatives across the five schools at UTMB. We extend our sincere thanks to Dean Vines of the School of Health Professions for hosting an engaging IPE Escape Room experience for students, faculty, and staff. We also recognize student organization leaders for coordinating the Addressing Healthcare Gaps for All training, providing valuable learning opportunities for all students.

In addition, many faculty members and IPEP champions led IPEP Core Curriculum activities, including Dr. Sara Dann‑Grice’s leadership during Bench2Bedside. We are grateful for their commitment to fostering a interprofessional culture that supports improved health outcomes across all care settings at UTMB.

We’re excited to welcome students to eight interactive IPEP Core Curriculum activities this July, including the IPE Student Mock Codes Simulation with the Office of Life Support Education and Training on July 15th and the new COPD topic added to Engage Me: All About the Patient on July 10th!

We also warmly invite all faculty and staff to join us for the Annual HEC and IPEP Faculty & Staff Retreat on July 23, we hope to see you all there!

Warmest regards,
