<p>In this episode, we explore the collaboration between Rimsha Minhaz, an MPH student with a background in dentistry, and Dr. Wilson Wang, a pediatrician, health professional, and founder of WD Home and CEO of World Doctors. Driven by a desire to address disparities in healthcare access—a passion ignited by her experiences in outreach programs in South India—Rimsha pursued a Master of Public Health degree at NYU GPH. It was at NYU GPH that Rimsha's path intersected with Dr. Wang's when she took his course on data-driven decision making. Inspired by Dr. Wang's dedication to public health, including his work during the Ebola outbreak, Rimsha is now working with him through WD Home on a project focused on older person care management. This is a story of how passion meets purpose, and how a new generation of public health leaders is shaping a healthier future.</p> <p>Read Balancing Action and Reflection, a perspective piece by Rimsha Minhaz: <a href= "https://publichealth.nyu.edu/events-news/news/2024/12/02/balancing-action-and-reflection"> https://publichealth.nyu.edu/events-news/news/2024/12/02/balancing-action-and-reflection</a></p> <p>WD-Home: <a href="https://wd-home.co">https://wd-home.co</a></p> <p>To learn more about the NYU School of Global Public Health, and how our innovative programs are training the next generation of public health leaders, visit <a href= "http://www.publichealth.nyu.edu">http://www.publichealth.nyu.edu</a>.</p> <p> </p>
