Inside UNF — November 7, 2024

Students develop solutions to combat physician burnout

UNF student speaking in front of an audienceMedNexus, in collaboration with CSI Companies and Blackstone LaunchPad, recently hosted the 2024 Innovation Challenge. This dynamic, team-based competition invited undergraduate and graduate students to develop and pitch innovative solutions to critical healthcare challenges facing the region.
 
The challenge focused on the pressing issue of physician burnout—a significant concern identified by the American Medical Association, with more than 60% of physicians reporting symptoms. Given the increased strain of the pandemic, many physicians are contemplating leaving practice, which poses a serious threat to healthcare delivery and patient care.
 
Four teams of students competed to earn scholarship money, gain mentorship from university faculty, network with regional healthcare executives and engage with real-world problems.

President Limayem recognized as an influential leader

UNF President Moez LimayemPresident Moez Limayem has been named to the Florida 500 list by the editorial staff of Florida Trend. The list, now in its seventh year, recognizes 500 of Florida’s most influential business leaders spanning across more than 60 business categories. Limayem was named in the education category. 
 
“The editorial selection of the 500 executives was based on extensive contacts in regional business circles, hundreds of interviews and months of research, culminating in a highly selective biographical guide to the people who really run Florida,” said Florida Trend’s announcement.
 
The honorees are individuals who others in their communities or industry sectors turn to for leadership or who set a standard for best practices in their sector. Many demonstrate impact beyond their companies, community service and philanthropy.
 
An energetic and passionate leader, Limayem was previously named an Ultimate CEO by the Jacksonville Business Journal in 2023 and highlighted in the Jacksonville Daily Record as a Top Newsmaker of 2022.
 

Faculty Feature: Dr. Indika Kahanda

Dr. Indika Kahanda headshotDr. Indika Kahanda, University of North Florida School of Computing associate professor, has received a National Science Foundation sub-award for a four-year collaborative project with researchers from the National Center for Genome Resources, Montana State University and DePaul University that aims to develop AI machine learning tools for synthesizing and analyzing large genomic datasets.
 
As climate change worsens, plants need to adapt to survive. A wide range of genetic diversity helps them become more resilient to changing conditions, but harsher climates may cause many plants to die, reducing this diversity. Understanding genetic differences is key to identifying vulnerable plants and keeping ecosystems healthy.

UNF alum helps students learn conflict resolution techniques

UNF staff member Rebecca WeinerBy Byron E. Jones
 
UNF alum Rebecca Weiner (‘19), a resolution coordinator in the Dean of Students Office, takes joy in her role helping students navigate difficult situations. Among her many duties, she assists with student conduct cases, oversees the Student Conduct Board and trains various departments and student organizations on matters of conflict management. 
 
Weiner says she and her colleagues are committed to empowering students and providing them with the necessary tools to manage conflict on their own. 
 
“If students don’t have experience dealing with conflict, it can be a very scary thing,” said Weiner. “Giving them the tools to help manage conflict is a big part of my job.” 
 
According to Weiner, watching students mature in their approach and knowledge of student conduct is the most enjoyable part of her work.
 
“When students come to the Dean of Students Office, they are not necessarily at a high point in their lives,” said Weiner. “Helping them get through their struggles to a place where they are feeling better and seeing that growth is what I like about my job.”
 
Prior to her current role in the Dean of Students Office, Weiner held other various administrative positions on campus since graduating in 2019 with dual degrees in international studies and philosophy and a minor in Chinese.
 
In fall 2023, Weiner began pursuing a master’s degree in business analytics and is scheduled to graduate in spring 2025. She says her experience as a graduate student has been both challenging and fun.
 
“Graduate school has definitely challenged me and taken me out of my comfort zone, and I think that’s a good thing,” said Weiner. “It has helped me diversify my professional skill sets.”
 
In her spare time, Weiner says she enjoys listening to music, supporting Jacksonville Women's Rugby and participating in 5K runs.

As one of 19 honorees from around the state, Dr. Limayem was recognized for her contributions to the field of science, namely for her patented work in pioneering nanotherapeutics against emerging drug resistance, and for top research in renewable resources, enhancing public health safety and security.  
 
“Receiving this award is a meaningful recognition of the high standards, dedication and values I strive to maintain in my work,” Limayem said. “It serves as a reminder that learning and growth are part of a continuous journey in any profession. Upholding ethical practices, even when challenges arise, remains central to my approach, and this honor encourages me to keep contributing positively to science and education. I’m inspired to continue making a difference, knowing that genuine dedication and integrity resonate with others in the field.”  
 
Limayem said the award enhances her credibility as a researcher and has provided a sense of renewed encouragement to further pursue her goals for herself, her students and collaborators.
 

Osprey Profile: Azia Romanpicon

By Byron E. Jones
 
Azia Romanpicon, a Navy veteran and junior psychology major at the University of North Florida, is grateful for the opportunity to earn a college degree while also helping fellow military veterans, just like her, adjust to civilian life and pursue their academic interests.
 
Slated to graduate in fall 2025, Romanpicon says she enjoys everything the UNF campus has to offer.
 
UNF student and Navy veteran Azia Romanpicon“UNF is a beautiful campus,” she said. “The classes and the instructors are great.”
 
From her own experience, Romanpicon found that transitioning from military life to civilian life was overwhelming at first. She says discovering the available veteran resources UNF offers was beneficial to her adjustment process.
 
In her dual roles as a Veterans Affairs Work Study student assistant in the UNF Military and Veterans Resource Center (MVRC) and president of the Student Veterans of America UNF Chapter, Romanpicon says she and her colleagues are always willing to offer assistance to other veterans.
 
“We enjoy helping people find their way, just as we had to find our way,” she said.
 
Recently, Romanpicon was recognized as a Military Friendly® 2024 Student Veteran Leadership Award honoree and is featured in the fall edition of G.I. Jobs Magazine discussing her experience transitioning to civilian life.

Early life and military service

A native of Duncan, Oklahoma, Romanpicon says much of her upbringing revolved around farm work and spending time with friends. After graduating high school, she enrolled in college, but did not complete her studies — admitting that she was not ready for college at that time in her life.
 
At the suggestion of her uncle, she considered pursuing a career in the military and joined the Navy in 2013. Romanpicon says she finds it ironic that she joined the military considering she didn’t like taking orders from others.
 
“I never liked authority, so I never thought I would be the person to join the miliary,” said Romanpicon.
 
She says being in the military did wonders for her confidence and empowered her to recognize that women can succeed in a male-dominated career field.
 
“I grew my confidence in the military,” said Romanpicon. “The more responsibility I got, the more successful and the more confident I became.”
 
In addition to finding confidence, she also found love. Her husband is a current active-duty Navy serviceman. During her four-year military career, she served as an aviation electrician's mate fixing wiring and parts in military aircrafts. Before leaving the Navy, she worked her way up to the rank of E-4 Navy petty officer third class.

Move to Jacksonville and enrolling at UNF

Following her military career, she and her husband moved to California for three years before moving to Jacksonville in 2020 for his current assignment at NAS Jax.
 
Desiring a return to college, she researched opportunities and found that UNF offered an abundance of programs she was interested in and enrolled in fall 2021 with the goal of studying psychology to become a counselor. While she says being a nontraditional college-aged student was daunting at first, the MVRC offered her the opportunity to connect with others with similar experiences.
 
“I love working at the MVRC and being around like-minded people,” Romanpicon said.
 
While studying psychology, she enrolled in a substance abuse course that shifted her professional goals. She says the course opened her eyes to the importance of second chances, and she is now eyeing a career as a probations officer.
 
When she’s not taking classes or working in the MVRC, she enjoys CrossFit training and spending time with her husband and their four dogs.

Students explore Gen Z perspectives on politics

Student panel and UA professor Ted McLoof sitting on stageUniversity of North Florida Hicks Honors College undergraduates welcomed students from the University of Arizona to campus for an election night event as part of the Honors Colloquium and UA Discourse Series on election night. About 300 students gathered in the Robinson Theater for the intercollegiate discourse event to listen to their peers' perspectives on how growing up in this electoral climate shaped their political views.   
 
The student panel was hosted by UNF Department of English instructor Will Pewitt and Honors director Dr. Leslie Kaplan, moderated by College of Education professor Dr. John White and directed by UA professor Ted McLoof, who runs the UA Discourse Series.  
 
The UA Discourse Series aims to alter how students think about political conversations by making them less about “debate” and more about sharing differing perspectives. The series recently held events in Washington D.C. and Duke University.
