to an all new Inclusion and Engagement Task Force.
The AAO has announced the creation of a new task force to contribute leadership on inclusiveness and diversity issues and help ensure that the needs of all members are met. Last year the application process for the task force opened and members were invited to apply to serve on it.
“We are very excited to have eight committed and accomplished individuals joining in our efforts and bringing their leadership skills and creativity to our work on inclusion,” said AAO President Dr. Christopher Roberts. “We believe that diversity is a strength and ensuring the involvement of our diverse membership will only make the AAO stronger.”
A $25 million multispecialty surgery center and medical office building now under construction on Jacksonville s Southside will be a collaborative operation between Jax Spine & Pain Centers and UF Health Jacksonville.
They billed the project at 5191 First Coast Technical Parkways as the largest multispecialty freestanding ambulatory surgery center on the First Coast.
A recent groundbreaking was really a celebration to show the excitement both sides have for this project, said Steven Boron, CEO of Jax Spine & Pain Centers. There is a great need for it in the community.
The three-story, 54,000-square-foot facility, which is expected to open in spring 2022, will house the Centurion Surgery Center on the first floor, UF medical practices on the second floor and Jax Spine and Pain Centers on the third floor.

Polished glass has been at the center of imaging systems for centuries. Their precise curvature enables lenses to focus light and produce sharp images, whether the object in view is a single cell, the page of a book, or a far-off galaxy.
Changing focus to see clearly at all these scales typically requires physically moving a lens, by tilting, sliding, or otherwise shifting the lens, usually with the help of mechanical parts that add to the bulk of microscopes and telescopes.
