About the Event

Parents and caregivers are often desperate to find a way to better support their children but can easily feel lost on where to start. This often means flip flopping between being overly harsh or overly accommodating, or can lead to parents feeling paralyzed and indecisive. This workshop will give clinicians concrete tools to guide families through tricky issues, such as difficulty in school, breaking house rules, or parent/teen conflict. The first half of the workshop will focus on teaching strategies that enhance connection and self-esteem. The second will highlight ways that parents can address problem behaviors and encourage skillful choices. Audience members will also hear concrete ways to combine skills so that caregivers are better able to find balance between these two crucial domains. The workshop will also cover common stuck points so that audience members walk away confident in their ability to support patients as they encounter barriers.

CE Credit: 3 CE credit hours are available to psychologists (licensed in New York State and states that accept American Psychological Association [APA] credit), social workers (New York State only), and mental health counselors (New York State only). Please see the CE requirements and additional information on our event webpage. This content is also appropriate for MDs; however, CME credits are not available for this event.

In these classes, you’ll learn about patterns we all hold because of muscles that have become chronically tight. These patterns can make your daily movements more difficult, cause you pain in your body, and even affect your balance. Together, we will explore Hanna Somatic Exercises you can do to get out of pain and regain ease and joy in your movements.

These movements are often done lying on the floor and can also be done from a chair. All you need is yourself. Hanna Somatic Education is a safe, gentle, and intuitive approach to relaxing tight and painful muscles.

You may join us for a single class or multiple classes. Some experience in Hannah Somatic Education is preferred but not mandatory. Please explore the introductory course if you are new to the practice.

Join Lisa Tatham and Grace Damasco, NP, for a group medical visit designed to empower you to unlock the physical and emotional benefits of yoga.

In this nurturing environment, you'll learn how yoga can enhance musculoskeletal health, optimize cardiovascular function, regulate blood glucose levels, and elevate mental clarity and focus. Experience the profound effects of yoga as it simultaneously reduces anxiety, depression, stress, and anger, fostering a sense of inner peace and balance.

Reclaim your body's freedom of movement and vitality as you tap into the inherent power within yourself to release stress and make empowered choices for your well-being. Find solace and understanding within our supportive community and embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing.

Through personalized instruction and a safe, welcoming atmosphere, allow yoga to stimulate your immune system, increase flexibility, build strength, alleviate pain, and enhance your overall quality of life. Join us as we embrace the healing potential of medical yoga and take proactive steps towards a healthier, happier you.

What you can expect:

Each session will focus in on a specific benefit that arises out of a somatic yoga practice (improved balance, increased strength, stress management, etc…) allowing you to experience within yourself that benefit and learn the practices you can do to recreate it on your own. This SMA(shared medical appointment) is practiced on the floor. In the session you will be listening to the instructions for the movement you are invited to do and then doing your version of the movement. This is different from watching someone do something and copying them. It’s a very special way of practicing that allows you to discover the best possible version of the movement for you.

Date: Wednesday, 5/06-6/03(skipping 5/20)

Time: 5:30pm-6:30pm, Virtual

Please note: We accept most insurances. Your insurance may cover the 1-hour group session, however, you will be responsible if you have a specialist copayment per session. You will also be responsible if you have a deductible or co-insurance.

Our Health Screening Van offers early detection and health education services, including lung screens. Lung screens use a low-dose CT scan to take detailed images of your lungs. It’s fast, painless, can catch cancer early before symptoms begin, and gives you the best chance at a lung-cancer-free life.

Curious about your eligibility for a low-dose CT lung screening?

The first step is to schedule a phone or video consultation with one of our Nurse Practitioners to confirm eligibility. If you are 50-80 years old, currently smoke, or have a history of smoking, you may be eligible for a lung screen.

Please call the Health Screening Van team directly at (646) 962-5864 (LUNG) if you are interested in scheduling a consult. You may also complete the Community Member Interest Form, and our team will contact you.

The HIV/ID Outpatient Lecture series was founded in Spring 2024 to offer structured educational enrichment and development for HIV primary care providers at Weill Cornell Medicine. While many HIV/ID providers are clinically trained in infectious disease management, there are limited opportunities for continuing education and review of common general primary care topics, such as management of hyperlipidemia, osteoporosis, aging/frailty, and gender-affirming care. These conditions are frequently managed in our routine clinical practice, yet there have not been formal opportunities to stay abreast of practice-changing updates in these content areas. The Lecture series invites clinical experts in various fields of medicine to present a review of the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of these different conditions.

What Is Heart Rate Variability (HRV)?

Heart Rate Variability reflects how well your body adapts to stress and recovery. Higher HRV is associated with improved stress resilience and better overall health outcomes.

In this group medical visit, you’ll learn how to understand, track, and improve HRV using simple, evidence-based tools you can apply in daily life.

What You’ll Learn

✔ How HRV reflects the balance between the sympathetic (“fight or flight”) and parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) nervous systems
✔ How to track your HRV and interpret your results
✔ How to use HRV data to guide more proactive lifestyle and stress-management decisions
✔ A guided diaphragmatic breathing practice, shown in numerous studies to improve HRV

App Requirements

Please download one of the following apps before the first visit ($10):

Tri-I Research & Training

Weill Cornell Medicine

AI Clinic Info:

EIPM's bi-weekly sessions (Wednesdays at 2pm-3pm) aim to enhance how we use LLMs for complex tasks, including coding. They will serve as a collaborative space for hands-on troubleshooting, knowledge sharing, and continuous learning.

Who is this for? This clinic is designed for our entire scientific and clinical community, with a special emphasis on trainees (students, postdocs, residents and fellows). It is the perfect forum for:

Researchers and Scientists looking to apply LLMs to data analysis, coding challenges, or manuscript writing.Clinicians interested in exploring how AI tools can securely optimize research and workflows.Trainees seeking a supportive, hands-on environment to learn and get guidance on applying advanced LLMs to their specific projects.What participants can expect from these sessions:

Collaborate with our most LLM-proficient team members (“Super-Users”) to troubleshoot and refine their work.Present real challenges they are encountering (e.g., coding issues, complex prompts, workflow optimization).Potentially share “micro-presentations” when someone discovers a new model, feature, or technique.Our goals are to:

Build internal expertise and share best practices. Help participants overcome real technical challenges, and create a community of practice around practical AI use.

We are currently seeking Super-Users who demonstrate expertise in coding and experience with AI tools such as Chat GPT 5.2, Gemini 3.0, & Claude 4.5 Opus. We are also seeking participants who are looking for troubleshooting guidance.

All skill levels are welcome, from beginners to advanced users.

Reach out to Victoria Cummings (vjc4001@med.cornell.edu) should you have any questions or inquiries.

Our Health Screening Van offers early detection and health education services, including lung screens. Lung screens use a low-dose CT scan to take detailed images of your lungs. It’s fast, painless, can catch cancer early before symptoms begin, and gives you the best chance at a lung-cancer-free life.

Curious about your eligibility for a low-dose CT lung screening?

The first step is to schedule a phone or video consultation with one of our Nurse Practitioners to confirm eligibility. If you are 50-80 years old, currently smoke, or have a history of smoking, you may be eligible for a lung screen.

Please call the Health Screening Van team directly at (646) 962-5864 (LUNG) if you are interested in scheduling a consult. You may also complete the Community Member Interest Form, and our team will contact you.

Pre-screening and appointment required. Lung screening is usually fully covered by insurance for eligible individuals. No insurance? We have options for you.

In these classes, you’ll learn about patterns we all hold because of muscles that have become chronically tight. These patterns can make your daily movements more difficult, cause you pain in your body, and even affect your balance. Together, we will explore Hanna Somatic Exercises you can do to get out of pain and regain ease and joy in your movements.

These movements are often done lying on the floor and can also be done from a chair. All you need is yourself. Hanna Somatic Education is a safe, gentle, and intuitive approach to relaxing tight and painful muscles.

You may join us for a single class or multiple classes. Some experience in Hannah Somatic Education is preferred but not mandatory. Please explore the introductory course if you are new to the practice.

In this nurturing environment, you'll learn how yoga can enhance musculoskeletal health, optimize cardiovascular function, regulate blood glucose levels, and elevate mental clarity and focus. Experience the profound effects of yoga as it simultaneously reduces anxiety, depression, stress, and anger, fostering a sense of inner peace and balance.

Reclaim your body's freedom of movement and vitality as you tap into the inherent power within yourself to release stress and make empowered choices for your well-being. Find solace and understanding within our supportive community and embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing.

Through personalized instruction and a safe, welcoming atmosphere, allow yoga to stimulate your immune system, increase flexibility, build strength, alleviate pain, and enhance your overall quality of life. Join us as we embrace the healing potential of medical yoga and take proactive steps towards a healthier, happier you.

What you can expect:

Each session will focus in on a specific benefit that arises out of a somatic yoga practice (improved balance, increased strength, stress management, etc…) allowing you to experience within yourself that benefit and learn the practices you can do to recreate it on your own. This SMA(shared medical appointment) is practiced on the floor. In the session you will be listening to the instructions for the movement you are invited to do and then doing your version of the movement. This is different from watching someone do something and copying them. It’s a very special way of practicing that allows you to discover the best possible version of the movement for you.

What works for one person does not work for someone else--that's because we have different metabolisms. Instead of focusing on calories, different diets, or exercise routines, it is more important to know what your metabolism is doing. Based on that, you can pick the foods that work best for you.

During this 4-week journey led by Dr. Chiti Parikh, all participants will wear a continuous glucose monitor to gain better insight into their metabolism. Each week will have specific instructions on using that information while optimizing your diet, sleep, exercise, and stress management routine.

This session is a good fit for anyone looking to optimize their weight or address prediabetes or early diabetes.

Pre-requisite:

A visit with our clinical team will be scheduled where baseline lab tests, body composition and resting metabolic rate testing will be conducted. This will help you understand how your metabolism is functioning right now and we will be able to track progress over time.

We will also review different glucose monitors and apps that will suit your unique needs. Over the counter glucose monitors cost $89 for 1 month supply if your insurance does not cover them.

What Is Heart Rate Variability (HRV)?

Heart Rate Variability reflects how well your body adapts to stress and recovery. Higher HRV is associated with improved stress resilience and better overall health outcomes.

In this group medical visit, you’ll learn how to understand, track, and improve HRV using simple, evidence-based tools you can apply in daily life.

What You’ll Learn

✔ How HRV reflects the balance between the sympathetic (“fight or flight”) and parasympathetic (“rest and digest”) nervous systems
✔ How to track your HRV and interpret your results
✔ How to use HRV data to guide more proactive lifestyle and stress-management decisions
✔ A guided diaphragmatic breathing practice, shown in numerous studies to improve HRV

App Requirements

Please download one of the following apps before the first visit ($10):

HRV4 Biofeedback (iPhone)

HRV4 Training (iPhone & Android)

What works for one person does not work for someone else--that's because we have different metabolisms. Instead of focusing on calories, different diets, or exercise routines, it is more important to know what your metabolism is doing. Based on that, you can pick the foods that work best for you.

During this 4-week journey led by Dr. Chiti Parikh, all participants will wear a continuous glucose monitor to gain better insight into their metabolism. Each week will have specific instructions on using that information while optimizing your diet, sleep, exercise, and stress management routine.

This session is a good fit for anyone looking to optimize their weight or address prediabetes or early diabetes.

Pre-requisite:

A visit with our clinical team will be scheduled where baseline lab tests, body composition and resting metabolic rate testing will be conducted. This will help you understand how your metabolism is functioning right now and we will be able to track progress over time.

We will also review different glucose monitors and apps that will suit your unique needs. Over the counter glucose monitors cost $89 for 1 month supply if your insurance does not cover them.

The HIV/ID Outpatient Lecture series was founded in Spring 2024 to offer structured educational enrichment and development for HIV primary care providers at Weill Cornell Medicine. While many HIV/ID providers are clinically trained in infectious disease management, there are limited opportunities for continuing education and review of common general primary care topics, such as management of hyperlipidemia, osteoporosis, aging/frailty, and gender-affirming care. These conditions are frequently managed in our routine clinical practice, yet there have not been formal opportunities to stay abreast of practice-changing updates in these content areas. The Lecture series invites clinical experts in various fields of medicine to present a review of the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of these different conditions.

What works for one person does not work for someone else--that's because we have different metabolisms. Instead of focusing on calories, different diets, or exercise routines, it is more important to know what your metabolism is doing. Based on that, you can pick the foods that work best for you.

During this 4-week journey led by Dr. Chiti Parikh, all participants will wear a continuous glucose monitor to gain better insight into their metabolism. Each week will have specific instructions on using that information while optimizing your diet, sleep, exercise, and stress management routine.

This session is a good fit for anyone looking to optimize their weight or address prediabetes or early diabetes.

Pre-requisite:

A visit with our clinical team will be scheduled where baseline lab tests, body composition and resting metabolic rate testing will be conducted. This will help you understand how your metabolism is functioning right now and we will be able to track progress over time.

We will also review different glucose monitors and apps that will suit your unique needs. Over the counter glucose monitors cost $89 for 1 month supply if your insurance does not cover them.

Course Schedule: 1-hour Group Session

Wednesday from 4pm-5pm

Session 2: July 22, 2026
