In this episode of SCU Now, host Anthony Sarinana shares updates from Southern California University of Health Sciences, including research led by Dr. Steffany Moonaz finding that a 12-week structured yoga program produced similar—and sometimes slightly better—improvements than strengthening exercises for 117 adults with knee osteoarthritis, while also offering strong healthcare cost value. We also cover SCU Ayurveda Program Director Dr. Anupama Kizhakkeveettil leading the International Delegates Assembly at the 2026 International AYUSH Conference in Dubai, where a draft white paper explored AYUSH approaches for prevention, chronic disease management, and long-term wellness, alongside SCU faculty presentations linking Ayurveda with modern science. We then highlight the growing demand for genetic counselors as genomic technologies expand, featuring insights from Dr. Dan Handley and Stephanie Gandomi, and conclude with SCU Student Services' whole-student support and Wellness Wednesday programming.
