Public Health Insider: Webcast Series
Gain knowledge from Health experts
Public health is affected by shifts in policy, social and environmental influences, technology and much more. As a global health crisis illustrates, gaps and inequities of any size in these systems can have devastating effects for health workers, the economy, particularly impacting communities with historic and systemic health disparities.
At the College of Health, our students and alumni have long been working toward answers to the challenges of lifelong health in their communities. Get an insider look at the impacts of public health with a webcast series hosted by some of Oregon State’s health experts.
These virtual events were hosted by the OSU Alumni Association and OSU Foundation in collaboration with the OSU College of Health.
