So a couple weeks after it was published, I took a trip to a medical school in the western part of the country and I was visiting to think about their geriatrics research program, and they had a geriatrics evaluation clinic. And I met with the clinical pharmacist who worked in that clinic and she told me, “You know what?

This is both a research and a clinical interest of yours. But that just didn’t really resonate with what I saw clinically which was that there was lots of suffering both in the patient, their family and on the clinical team and just felt it was really this space where I didn’t have a lot of evidence to guide me.

And now my program of research is around testing that person-centered narrative intervention or PCNI because you have to give them an acronym in healthcare. So we have community volunteers who often they have a background in writing or background in healthcare, certainly an interest in interviewing and an interest in writing.

You’re a disgruntled medical student. You’re thinking about dropping out of medical school. And so I went and I kind of reached out and found that they were doing a one week training, multidisciplinary training, which they offered me a place on as a medical student.

Lauren: Although again, still thinking about what that means for an individual older adult is really important. Julien: But every time we look at one of these individual interventions, we’re not always seeing what we want to see. Julien: He basically had an end of life care discussion with this patient.

Who is a long time teacher in the joint medical program, now Emeritus. Joint medical program is between UC Berkeley and UCSF. I was a medical student there some 25 years ago or so. So all of that, the language dimension of clinical work is, it seems to me very much more fine tuned or refined.

And then I feel like when I’m in clinic I’m helping individuals, and you only have so much time to help so many people. In clinic, I’m helping what, hundreds or thousands. When I write, I learn a ton from that. And I tend to think of writing as my version of public health. Even if I write a scholarly article.

When I was a medical student, I actually worked with Elizabeth in her research group at OHSU. And for any, any diet, it can, we can really tweak it to an individual’s preferences, their needs, that kind of thing. Eric 18:14 Elizabeth, how do you bring it up in your clinic?
