What are the Impacts of Structural Racism on Housing, Aging, and Health?

Expired

Researchers from Michigan State University and Rutgers University will lead the first nationally funded study to explore how neighborhood change created by racism in housing affects health across the life course, specifically related to aging. Researchers are starting to understand the links between historical redlining and contemporary health inequities. This work expands on that idea, studying a whole host of factors 'beyond redlining' that have influenced decline and disinvestment in cities.

New MSU Research Sheds Light on Impact and Bias of Voter Purging in Michigan

Expired

In recent years, some states have prioritized purging their voter rolls of those who have passed away or moved out of state. During election season, there is often increased discussion about the necessity and impact of these actions. Voter purging can be an important step for creating election integrity, but others have raised concerns about how the process is conducted and who it targets.

How Can Adults Help Prevent Youth Suicide?

Warning: This story talks about suicide. If you or someone you know needs help, please call, text or chat the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988. You matter. You are important.

Dr. Amber Pearson

Can Nature-Based Interventions Positively Impact the Mental Health of Students of Color?

Expired

There’s widespread evidence that anxiety is growing and mental health is declining among people ages 18 to 24. We also know that the number of people — especially students of color — in this age group who are seeking mental health care has declined since the start of the pandemic.

The Expansion of Lyme Disease in Michigan: Climate Change’s Hidden Toll on Public Health

Expired

As the realities of climate change become increasingly impossible to ignore, its effects are proving to be far more wide-reaching than previously imagined.

Six Tips for Simplifying Your Public Health Communications

Expired

Here’s a fun conversation starter: Ask someone to explain the most complicated thing about their job or hobby in a single, easy-to-understand sentence.

For many people, especially those of us in health and other science-related fields, responding to this question can be daunting. How do you distill years of work or an immensely technical topic into a meaningful, public-friendly message?

A Spartan Transforming Public Health

Expired

Not all public health researchers are fortunate enough to help build an academic department from the ground up, let alone have the full backing and partnership of community members along the way. But Jennifer Johnson is among those lucky few. At Michigan State University, she's part of a public health department that is fast becoming a national model for community-based participatory research and implementation that’s making a profound impact on the health of Michigan residents.

Global Insights, Local Impact: How Cultural Competence Shapes Public Health Strategies

Expired

Cultural competence is more than just a buzzword; it’s the essential skill of understanding, appreciating, and effectively interacting with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. But why is this so crucial for public health practitioners? Simply put, cultural competence ensures that health initiatives are not only respectful and relevant but also finely tuned to the unique needs of every community, paving the way for better health outcomes and greater social equity.
