The University of Florida Center for Arts in Medicine (UF CAM) is an academic program housed in the University of Florida College of the Arts. Established in 1996, the Center conducts research and education at the intersections of the arts, healthcare, and public health.[1][2][3][4][5] The Center's mission is to advance research, education, and practice in arts in health, locally and globally. [6][7]
The first university in the U.S. to offer a graduate degree in Arts in Medicine (AiM),[8] CAM also has undergraduate and graduate certificate programs, [9] as well as an annual Arts in Health (AiH) Intensive for professional development.[10][11]
CAM has adapted to local and national needs with programs and initiatives such as SPARC352,[1][12][13][14] Rural Veterans Telerehabilitation Initiative (RVTRI) with the Malcom Randall VA,[8][15][16][17] and a COVID-19 arts response repository [5][18]and UF vaccine confidence initiative.[19][20]
History
[edit]UF CAM's beginnings are in the clinical work done by the UF Health Shands Hospital Arts in Medicine program and continues to have a close relationship to this day. In 1995, co-directors (Dr. Rusti Brandman, Dr. John Graham-Pole, and Dr. Jill Sonke) created the nation's first university level courses in arts in healthcare. The following year, the Center for the Arts in Healthcare Research and Education (CAHRE)[21] became an operational part of UF's College of the Fine Arts (now University of Florida College of the Arts). [22]
By 2005, CAHRE boasted "the most extensive educational program in arts-in-healthcare in the country." And had courses with the School of Theatre and Dance, Honors Program, College of Nursing, and the College of Medicine. [23]
In 2012, CAHRE rebranded to become the Center for Arts in Medicine.
Research
[edit]CAM has been a leader in arts in health research since its inception.[11]
EpiArts Lab
[edit]In partnership with Dr. Daisy Fancourt at University College London, the EpiArts Lab is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) [24] and Bloomberg Philanthropies [25][26] and is building on research conducted in the UK to explore the impacts of arts and cultural engagements on population health and the mechanisms involved, in the US.
Interdisciplinary Research Lab
[edit]CAM's Interdisciplinary Research Lab is comprised of undergraduate and graduate students, research associates, and faculty from various disciplines across UF. Student research assistants provide support for research associate and faculty projects, while also receiving mentorship around designing and executing their own research.[27]
Programs & Initiatives
[edit]Sparc352
[edit]Sparc352 is a community-engaged research and programming initiative that engages the Gainesville, FL community in the arts. This program is a collaboration with UF’s Center for Arts, Migration and Entrepreneurship (CAME) and Center for Arts in Medicine (CAM) in the College of the Arts in partnership with UF Health Shands’ Arts in Medicine program (AIM).[12]
Rural Veterans TeleRehabilitation Initiative (RVTRI) Creative Arts Therapy
[edit]UF CAM has close ties with the VA North Florida/South Georgia Health System and Malcom Randall VA. RVTRI is an initiative started by Dr. Charles Levy in 2009 out of the Office of Rural Health (ORH) within the US Department of Veterans Affairs. In 2014, with support from UF CAM, RVTRI was able to offer creative art therapies (CATs) through telehealth, the first telehealth CAT program at a VA Medical Center in the nation. [28] [29] Since its inception, the Malcom Randall VA has "the largest telehealth program in the country". [30]
COVID-19 Arts Response
[edit]At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, CAM created an open-access collection of resources, including projects, organizations, and professionals that focused on arts and health culture approaches to promote the importance and encouragement for COVID-19 safety measures. During this time, CAM collaborated with ArtPlace America and the National Network of Public Health Institutes to create a COVID-19 Arts Local Government Advisory Brief.[31] Additionally, the CAM Director at the time, Dr Jill Sonke, served as a subject matter expert to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) COVID-19 task force. [32][18]
Engaging the Arts to Build Vaccine Confidence at UF
[edit]CAM also encouraged vaccine confidence actions at home by sponsoring seven art projects -- submitted by UF affiliates -- to promote the COVID-19 vaccine. [20]
