Special Features
The special features included in each newsletter highlight some of the outstanding individuals who have contributed immensely towards the success of each division of the Schroeder Arthritis Institute. Our March newsletter feature highlighted
Laura Passalent.
In this edition, we are highlighting two exceptional individuals who have made an outstanding impact towards the growth and success of the Schroeder Arthritis Institute.
Anette Larsson, Senior Director of the Campaign to Cure Arthritis, University Health Network Foundation
Anette Larsson is Senior Campaign to Cure Arthritis Director as well as Executive Lead for the Clinician Partner Program and the Toronto Rehab Campaign at the UHN Foundation. She leads the team that raises philanthropic funds for research, clinical care and education at the Schroeder Arthritis Institute. Anette was fundraising in the arts and culture sector in 2010 when she met Dr. Nizar Mahomed, the previous Program Medical Director of the Arthritis Program. She was struck by his team's singular focus and determination to address the arthritis health care crisis in order to improve the lives for the many people suffering from joint pain and arthritis. She saw great potential for a campaign for a much needed cause and became the inaugural Director of the
Campaign to Cure Arthritis.
The Campaign to Cure Arthritis team raises philanthropic funds for priorities aligned with the vision for the Schroeder Arthritis Institute – to have worldwide impact through early diagnosis, innovative treatment, and prevention of musculoskeletal diseases. Since 2010, the Campaign has raised 114 million dollars towards research, clinical care and education. Philanthropy provides important leverage and complement to peer-reviewed funds such as providing seed funds to collect enough data for a research project. In close collaboration with the Schroeder Arthritis Institute colleagues and volunteers, the campaign team identifies and cultivates individuals, corporations and foundations who have an interest in joining our team that is transforming the lives of people living with arthritis and other joint related diseases.
Anette's motivation has always been and continues to be the people – being part of an exception team that is transforming lives and reducing suffering. As part of this team, she has seen the progress form the Arthritis Program to the fully integrated Schroeder Arthritis Institute – the development of early diagnosis, disease markers, move treatments, predictive tools and models of care – all incredibly motivating and rewarding for her. It is also of utmost importance to her to keep learning. There is no shortage of new discoveries and other advances at our Institute to keep her on her toes, along with changes in the philanthropic sector. When asked what her Mantra of Fundraising Success is, Anette firmly said that it is "the importance of relationship building." The most crucial aspect of her work is to build and sustain relationships with the University Health Network and the University Health Network Foundation colleagues, fundraising volunteers, board members, grateful patients, current and prospective donors.
Anette is driven, creative, and resilient. She takes the initiative to implement new strategies. Her work with clinicians to coach them to listen for and acknowledge gratitude from patients was pioneered at our Institute and continues to be the main driver in the Campaign. Despite challenges she may face, she comes back stronger and inspires her constituents to keep going. She creatively shines through her work and problem-solving techniques.
In her personal life, Anette draws with ink and pursues the early photographic technique of cyanotype printing. She is an immigrant from Lund, Sweden, and has been enamoured by the diversity at the University Health Network and the Schroeder Arthritis Institute. She mentioned that "we solve problems together in very innovative ways."
On behalf of the Schroeder Arthritis Institute, we are grateful for Anette's exceptional contributions through the Campaign to Cure Arthritis. Her work has helped transform our ability to raise funds in order to reach our main goal, to find a cure.
Maria Morales, Administrative Leader and Executive Assistant
Maria Morales is the Administrative Leader for the
Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) and the
International Psoriasis and Arthritis Research Team (IPART), two prestigious research programs in the Division of Rheumatology at the Schroeder Arthritis Institute. She has been part of SPARCC and IPART since the start, almost 15 years. Maria manages the accounts of the two programs in all aspects, from ethics, funding, and collaboration among network sites. These programs have the biggest longitudinal database worldwide. She is optimistic that the missions of both programs, improving the health of patients with ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis are achievable. She trusts that the passion and expertise of the investigators behind these programs are and will continue to make a difference. Maria is also the Executive Assistant to Dr. Robert Inman, co-director of the Schroeder Arthritis Institute, and has been in this position since 2018. She is amazed at how the Institute has evolved through the years.
When asked what her biggest motivation at work is, she said that it's the investigators that she works with. She emphasized the importance of having trust between her colleagues and seeing the passion they have helps increase her drive for what she does every day. Maria's Mantra of Success is "Never give up. Embrace the challenge." She expressed how never giving up does truly pay off and will open doors of opportunities that you never even knocked on. Everyone goes through challenges and setbacks, but despite the many challenges she has faced throughout her life, after immigrating to Canada and finding her path, she is thankful to be working in a field that thrives on making a difference.
Nothing can be done if you don't work for it and Maria is the perfect example of this. She leads by example and hopes to inspire those around her to do the same. She is very action-oriented and will push for things to get done. She has goals and will work hard to reach them. Maria is also very reliable and dependable and said "My bosses know this. Once they give me a task, consider it done."
In her personal life, Maria's family motivates her to never give up and stay resilient despite the challenges she may face. She loves travelling to shop at different stores with some of her closest friends. She also enjoys interior design and you could say it is one of her biggest hobbies.
Maria takes pride in the mission she is part of that continues to evolve and is hopeful that their shared vision, of making a difference and finding a cure for arthritis, will be reached. She wants to leave on message for her understudies and for those who will continue with this mission. She hopes when the curtains are lowered down for her, that her understudies will continue on. "The passion that we have put in these programs, it's beyond imaginable. It's our heart and soul."
On behalf of the Schroeder Arthritis Institute and the Division of Rheumatology, we are grateful for Maria's outstanding contributions to the growth and success of the Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada and the International Psoriasis and Arthritis Research Team at the Schroeder Arthritis Institute.
