Putting the Public in Public Health
How can an academic institution play a constructive role in advancing community health? Not through research insights alone, according to Dr. Josh Sharfstein, a former Maryland health secretary and now vice dean for public health practice and community engagement at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. In this lecture, Dr. Sharfstein will talk about the practical challenges and opportunities in public and community engagement for institutions of higher learning that aspire to heal the world.
Organized by the Center for Social Science Scholarship. This lecture will be recorded and followed by a light reception.
