Join us for a Q&A style panel with four UC Davis Health registered dietitians who will be available to take questions from the audience. You may also submit your questions beforehand in this registration survey.
This workshop, led by Dr. Tameka Jackson, will incorporate contemplative methods for grounding.

Health Workforce Well-being Day
UC Davis Health champions will come together to celebrate and recognize the vital contributions of health workers and discuss solutions to reduce burnout and protect worker well-being. All members of the UC Davis Health community are welcome to join.
Several events – such as in-person “mindful walks,” a meditation session, and a mental health and well-being resources table – will take place throughout the day.
This presentation on infant nutrition provides a comprehensive evidenced-based guide to feeding practices from birth to 24 months, covering breastfeeding, formula feeding, and the introduction of complementary foods.
The presentation also explores different weaning approaches, including baby-led and traditional spoon-feeding, practical recommendations for introducing allergens, managing choking hazards, and ensuring a nutrient-dense diet for toddlers are included.
