Last February 7, 2026, at the UST Medicine Auditorium, we gathered not just for a talk, but for a shared moment of growth — where ideas took root, conversations sparked inspiration, and learning extended beyond the ordinary.

“BLOOM: Building Learning Opportunities through Mentorship” reminded us that growth happens when we choose to listen, reflect, and stand together as one OT family. 🌱

Here’s to the insights gained, connections strengthened, and the continuous becoming of who we are meant to be.

Inspiring change. Innovating futures. 🌍✨

From February 9–12, 2026, at the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre, our UST OT community proudly participated in the World Federation of Occupational Therapists Congress under the theme “Inspiring Change, Innovating Futures.”

Six academic staff — Asst. Prof. Allan James Tan, MSOT; Prof. Ivan Neil B. Gomez, PhD; Assoc. Prof. Kim Gerald Medallon, PhD; Asst. Prof. Kathlene Anne Hernandez, MHPED; Asst. Prof. Pauline Grace Morato-Espino, PhD, and Asst. Prof. Nikka Karla Santos, OTD — together with UST OT alumni, presented their scientific papers. Prof. Ivan Neil B. Gomez, PhD and Mr. John Alexander David B. Tuazon, MSOT also showcased poster presentations. Prof. Gomez further served as a cluster session moderator during the congress.

Our passion for advancing practice beyond borders truly embodies what it means to lead, serve, and innovate. 💙💛

Finals? Let’s Adapt, Modify, and Conquer! 🔧✨
For our third shifting examinations, remember what a good OT would say: pace yourself 🧠, use effective strategies ✔️, and honor your limits. Take breaks, breathe deeply 🌿, and trust what you’ve learned. You’re your own top client today—so support yourself well. Good luck, Mabuting OTs! 💛 You’ve got this! 💪📚
