Health policies play a key role in raising public awareness as well as promoting the quality of research in this area to make it a possibility for the society.
The best way to help people make healthy lifestyle changes is at the large-scale, population level through public health efforts and policy changes. The U.S. based Integrated Healthcare Policy Consortium (IHPC) is a broad coalition of healthcare professionals, patients, and organizations that advocates for an integrative healthcare system with equal access to a full range of health-oriented, person-centered, regulated healthcare professionals.

The ongoing research at MASI lab gives us the ability to ask deep research questions and make them applicable to the neurological conditions we care about like Schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, Autism, Alzheimer’s, depression, deep brain stimulation, etc. “Having seen friends and family suffer with various neurological disorders and the therapeutic healing offered in alternate medicine instigated my interest to work in this field. Moving to academic research after being in the software industry for years is a challenge in itself, in addition to not having any exposure to medical imaging or neuroscience. However, getting into MASI lab has tremendously helped in making this transition as smooth as possible. The skills acquired from this lab have equipped me to work with confidence on a brain tumor project at UCSF and has given me an opportunity to make good friends. The focus of our project to understand the structure and function of the brain using advanced diffusion MRI methods keeps the motivation going!” – Prasanna
