    News Release Contact: Bonnie Ward [email protected] 619-303-3160 LA JOLLA INSTITUTE ELECTS ESTEEMED OPTOMETRY INDUSTRY LEADER TO BOARD OF DIRECTORS Inventor, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Herbert A. Wertheim joins Institute Board SAN DIEGO – (July 17, 2013) — Herbert A. Wertheim, O.D., D.Sc., M.D. (hc), a noted inventor, philanthropist, and optometric and visual science industry pioneer, has been elected to La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology’s Board of Directors. Dr. Wertheim is the founder and president of Brain Power Inc., the world's largest manufacturer of ophthalmic instruments, lens tints, and diagnostic products for optometrists, ophthalmologists, opticians, and laboratories. A scientist, physician, and visual neurologist, Dr. Wertheim's inventions, including the company's UV-absorbing technology, have helped prevent millions of people from developing cataracts or blindness from macular degeneration and other degenerative eye diseases. “The Institute is very fortunate to have an international business leader of Dr. Wertheim’s stature elected to our Board of Directors,” said Mitchell Kronenberg, Ph.D., president and chief scientific officer. “Dr. Wertheim brings not only vast executive experience but also keen scientific knowledge, an innovative mind, and a desire to find new treatments for debilitating diseases that rob people of so many critical aspects of life.” A nonprofit, independent biomedical research institute, La Jolla Institute is a world leader in the study of the immune system, which holds amazing potential for preserving health and ultimately conquering heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and myriad other devastating disorders. Dr. Wertheim says he finds the Institute’s focus on the immune system intriguing and intends to become involved because of its unlimited potential for preventing disease.

  • While Debbie Mucarsel-Powell Worked to Increase Access to Health
    While Debbie Mucarsel-Powell worked to increase access to health care as associate dean at FIU, Curbelo has repeatedly voted to take healthcare away from over 100,000 people in South Florida. He voted to increase the cost of healthcare, allow insurance companies to charge an "age tax" on older Americans, and gut protections for people with pre-existing conditions. Mucarsel-Powell Worked At The College Of Health At FIU, Where She “Establish[ed] And Gr[e]w The Green Family Foundation NeighborhoodHELP Program. “Debbie has spent the last twenty-years dedicated to improving the lives of underserved communities in Miami-Dade, working for non-profit organizations such as the Hope Center, Zoo Miami Foundation, and the Coral Restoration Foundation, and since 2003 at the College of Health at Florida International University and, since its inception, the Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine. Debbie has worked tirelessly to establish and grow the Green Family Foundation NeighborhoodHELP program at FIU and improve healthcare access for more Floridians.” [Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, campaign website, accessed 7/5/18] The NeighborhoodHELP Program Provides Health Care Access To Underserved Communities In Miami-Dade County. “The Green Family Foundation NeighborhoodHELP™ (Health Education Learning Program) is the cornerstone of the medical curriculum of the Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine. A unique concept in medical education, the program sends student teams to visit patients in their homes in underserved communities of Miami-Dade County, preparing them to address the social determinants that affect health access and outcomes. Through these household visits, the program provides individuals and communities with a range of services including education, support, and primary health care provided through a Mobile Health Care Center, (a second mobile unit will soon go online), staffed by physicians and nurses from the College of Medicine, which makes weekly neighborhood visits.

Florida State University Florida State University has the top-ranked program out of all the PA schools in Florida. Its affordable tuition and high educational quality put it above the rest of the schools on this list. The PA program at FSU is relatively new, but it has already become well-respected in the field. Its Master of Science in Physician Assistant Practice takes students roughly 27 months to complete. Florida State University is known for having exceptional facilities, and its simulation lab allows students to practice their skills before they get real clinical experience. Tuition per year: $5,656 resident; $18,786 non-resident Graduation rate: 94% 2. University of Florida The University of Florida may have been narrowly edged out by its in-state rival, but it’s still one of the best PA schools in Florida. The program awards a Master’s Degree in Physician Assistant Studies. As with the other schools on this list, admission requires the completion of a bachelor’s and the completion of several STEM classes. Applicants with at least one year of relevant professional experience will have a better chance of getting in. This program takes two years to complete. The first year is focused on lectures and laboratory classes.
