Wan Naszeerah, DrPH(c) MPH invited me today to speak with her students in the New Media undergraduate class at University of California, Berkeley to discuss the intersection of the public health and information environment.
The thoughtful questions from the students illustrated the benefits of being a digital native. Instead of the basics of digital media, we talked about maintaining credibility of health information, and regulation of internet platforms.
I hope some of them decide to go for public health careers in the future!
