Global Health Community

SAugandauganda2

Welcome to the Global Health Community for Research and Writing. This website provides resources and conversation primarily for Global Health minors at Northwestern but also for others interested in doing undergraduate research in global and public health. Supported by the Office of International Program Development (IPD) and the Writing Program, the site is a space to bring together faculty and students with multidisciplinary backgrounds and experience in this area and help students excel in writing research proposals, grant applications, articles, presentations, and reports.

This column is used for announcements of general interest. Resources on this site are organized by the 4-step process that beginning researchers generally follow:

In addition, there are other resources, such as links to other sites, and information about fellowships and graduate school (see Resources in the column on the right -- or use the search box at the top of the site). One especially useful portal on the right is organized around common problems.

If there is material you would like to add our site, look at the bottom right for a submission form that you can fill out and return to the community leader.

Christina-cole Christina Cole

Christina is a senior Political Science major and Global Health minor. She recently spent a quarter abroad in South Africa on the Public Health Program. In South Africa, she worked closely with a primary healthcare clinic and visited several healthcare related NGOs. Through her experience in South Africa, her volunteer work at Northwestern and her research at UCSF's Thoracic Oncology Lab, she discovered that public health involves both prevention and treatment and is not restricted to medicine alone, it is a dynamic subject that demands the head, heart and hands of both the patient, their community and the medical professional. She is looking forward to applying for her Masters in Public Health in the near future.
