A Conversation with Leaders of Stanford’s Emerging LGBTQ+ Health Program

A Conversation with Leaders of Stanford’s Emerging LGBTQ+ Health Program

A Conversation with Leaders of Stanford’s Emerging LGBTQ+ Health Program

Today, more than ever before, there is growing recognition that access to health care is unequally distributed, and historically marginalized populations are suffering as a result. A fundamental transformation in the field of medicine is needed to ensure the health and well-being of LGBTQ+ patients—a group that remains largely underserved in health care.

During this virtual conversation, we will share how Stanford Medicine’s emerging LGBTQ+ Health Program aims to address the medical, social, and mental health needs of LGBTQ+ people in the Bay Area and beyond.

Please join us for this first in a series of virtual briefings on October 29, 2020, from 5:00 – 6:00 p.m. PDT.

October 29, 2020 | 5:00 p.m. PDT

Please register for the virtual event and submit your questions here. Need help? Contact Morgan Borthwick at morganab@stanford.edu or 949.514.4094.

About the Instructors:

Corinna Louise DeLucia, MSN, PNP, RN, CPHON, is a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with almost 10 years of experience in pediatric hematology and oncology. She completed her first undergraduate degree at Cornell University where she majored in Biological Sciences and minored in Business. She then went to The University of Rochester where she obtained her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing. She has worked in a variety of roles within pediatric oncology which has provided her a diverse understanding of the many facets of health care. She has worked as a bedside nurse, travel nurse, nurse manager, inpatient nurse practitioner, outpatient nurse practitioner, and currently as a research nurse practitioner. Most of her more recent experience has focused specifically on patients with liquid tumors. She currently supports 3 studies opened at Stanford which focus on patients with leukemia (ALL and AML) as well as Classical Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. She has been helping to teach the newest pediatric oncology nurses about pediatric oncology and chemotherapy for the past 3.5 years as an instructor for the APHON chemotherapy provider course.

Christina Baggott (Tina), PhD, PPCNP, RN, CPON, is a Clinical Research Nurse Practitioner in the Cancer Clinical Trials Office at Stanford University. She received her Undergraduate Degree from the University of Alabama; her Master’s Degree from Emory University; and her Doctoral degree from the University of California, San Francisco. Currently Dr. Baggott helps manage clinical trials for patients who are receiving Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CART) therapy. Her program of research is focused on an evaluation of the symptom experience of children receiving treatment for cancer. Aspects of this program of research include the assessment of changes in symptom occurrence, severity, and distress across the child’s treatment trajectory, potential genetic influences on symptom severity, the impact of symptoms on patient outcomes (e.g., functional status, quality of life), and parents’ perceptions of children’s symptoms. An additional focus of her research is the use of technology to develop and evaluate tools on mobile platforms to assess and manage cancer-related symptoms (mHealth).
