Hi everyone, I'm a student at UC Berkeley researching the ethics of AI in healthcare for a class. I'd really appreciate if you could take the time to fill out my survey for my research! It takes ~5 mins and is anonymous.

Mainz Biomed and Thermo Fisher's collaboration on ColoAlert could be a milestone for global health, offering a more accessible method for early colorectal cancer detection.
How can this tool be effectively implemented in low-resource settings to improve global health outcomes?
I just read that Mainz Biomed and Thermo Fisher are working on a global colorectal cancer test, and honestly, this is the kind of progress we need! Catching cancer early makes such a difference, and having a test that’s easier and more accessible could help so many people. It’s amazing to see two leaders in the industry focusing on something that can truly change lives. So excited for what this means for global healthcare—this feels like the start of something great
Improving global health outcomes is a monumental task, especially in underserved regions. While technological innovations have made strides, systemic issues like funding gaps and logistical barriers remain.
What are some effective ways to address these $MYNZ hurdles? And how can global health initiatives better align with local needs and resources?
I just finished my bachelor’s degree in nursing and would love to continue my studies towards global health. My interest are gravitating towards research and field work in epidemiology.
Would love to hear your opinions on different masters degree that are provided in Europe!
im currently a junior pursing my bachelors in global health and biological anthropology. i’ve always had an interest in both natural and social sciences and these degrees allow me to explore both of those, but i literally have no idea what i want to do when i graduate. i go to a t10 school and i feel like im wasting my education by not knowing what i want to do with my degree
i like global health because i like working with the public and working on widespread issues and i like anthro because im specifically working with forensic anthro and i love the problem solving and biology aspect of it
i know this is supposed to be a cool time in my life where i get to explore lots of interests but its actually just severely stressing me out so if anyone has any career advice please let me know!
Global health isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a critical field shaping healthcare’s future. Understanding global health is essential for medical students for several reasons:
Developing a curriculum on providing healthcare to primarily mobile and displaced populations (refugees and migrants). Would love any recs for reading sources that could be added to the curriculum. Thanks!
On April 17, 2024, Swiss nonprofit Public Eye released a report alleging that Nestle baby food products sold in low- and middle-income countries contain high levels of added sugar. Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan were among those affected. Since then, regulatory authorities in Bangladesh and India have announced their own investigations relating to the issue. Pakistan, on the other hand, has been silent. What does this mean for long-term public health outlooks?
I write more about this here.
