About Me

Hello! Welcome to my blog!

My name is Janvi Huria, and I am an incoming first-year at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) from St. Louis, MO. I plan on studying Brain and Cognitive Science (Course 9) and Science, Technology, and Society (STS). I am fascinated by healthcare research and advocacy, and through years of extensively being involved in the nonprofit space, I advocate for the consideration of gender-specific biological and anatomic differences (not as a means of discrimination rather in the pursuit of individualized medicine) in the development of medicinal policy and solutions. I ultimately created this blog as a way to document some of my thoughts, experiences, and ideas with hopes that someone finds some value in them or can relate to them. This blog is formulated as a conversation I would have with a close friend, so I invite you to comment with your own thoughts. So, I officially welcome you to the conversation.

Hope you enjoy and happy reading, 
Janvi :)

    Effective healthcare leadership starts with understanding oneself. A Healthcare Management Training Program can guide professionals in identifying their strengths and improving their leadership style.

    About me sections in healthcare blogs often reflect professional journeys, connecting personal experience to service delivery. Completing a Healthcare Management Executive Program can enhance such narratives, demonstrating advanced leadership training, strategic thinking, and commitment to better care, making professionals not only relatable but also highly credible in their field to patients and peers alike.

"Not Good Enough (Or Even Close)" : Healthcare Disparities and Differences Among the LGBTQ+ Community

In the discussion of sex-and-gender-based medicine (SGBM), we often turn a blind eye to the healthcare disparities and differences in the LGBTQ+ community. In an attempt to make SGBM more "digestible", it becomes easier to align with the heteronormativity that forms the basis of medicine instead of pursuing medicine that is considerate of differences among sexual and gender identity while ensuring the patient-physician relationship is supportive and high-quality, insured (under private healthcare industries like the US) healthcare is accessible. For this week's post, I wanted to shed some light on three important aspects: access to healthcare, healthcare outcomes, and potential solutions.  The LGBTQ population is less likely to have health insurance or have their prescriptions filled, more likely to delay getting care, and more likely to be refused healthcare and be harassed by healthcare providers. They are also significantly more likely to report negative effects after ...

Access to Justice: Where We Are Now and Where We Need to Be

     In a world plagued by the diverse forces of poverty, racism, sexism, and more, access to justice has lost its protection as a universal human right, and access to high-quality legal support has become a marker of privilege. Justice has become just another means and system of social stratification that leaves millions, if not billions, vulnerable. Yet, according to international law, legal assistance is supposed to be equally accessible, transparent, and effective. However, in the enforcement and execution of these standards 1  , this fundamental concept is often lost, and equal access to legal support becomes increasingly disparate across different groups. Although there has been a tremendous success over the last years to maximize the use of technology to increase access to justice, much more work is yet to be done. Through a combination of relief-oriented strategies, structural change to the legal system, and long-term educational solutions, access to justice ...

How to Keep Your Mind Sharp During Social Distancing

Hello! I hope you are doing well and staying healthy! After around 2 weeks of time spent at home and a couple of days of the ALP(the name for our school's online classes), I have put together some of the things that have helped me keep my mind sharp and avoid spending endless hours scrolling through Instagram. Experimenting with New Things  In our current situation, one of the "silver linings" has been plentiful time for new activities. For me, there have always been things I have been interested in but never had the time for before. For example, I have always enjoyed writing but have found time now, during quarantine, to document, organize, and share some of these ideas through this blog. For others, this could be online course in a subject matter they are interested in or reading - a precious activity we often forget to do. Maybe listening to a new podcast (two of my favorites include Not Overthinking and Hidden Brain ) could help you become interested in new things...
