Scholars to discuss ‘Pathways to Worldwide Health’

Faculty and students from U-M and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev have been conducting research and exchanging internships together for several years.

This week, the American and Israeli scholars will come together in a unique forum to showcase the ways in which these collaborations are improving health around the world.

Each of these exciting research partnerships pursues in some way the health and vitality of diverse populations, from health care delivery in resource-limited settings to disease prevention in children. Presenters work in the fields of epidemiology, environmental health sciences, genetics, medicine, health management, policy and more.

If you are interested in refugee and migrant health, water sanitation and air quality, public health policy, health-worker safety, health management systems, or chronic disease including cancer, you are invited to attend the forum.

When: 9 a.m. – 2:30 p.m., Thursday, June 8 (lunch will be provided)

Where: U-M School of Public Health, 1415 Washington Heights, Ann Arbor, Room 1655
