Have you thought about a career in public health?

Check out the Public Health Epidemiology Conversations Podcast. This episode's guest is a clinical doctor and a public health practitioner, Dr. Meghan O’Connell has dedicated her life’s work to the achievement of health equity in the United States, and firmly believes that connecting clinical medicine and public health is an essential element in reaching the goal to eliminate health disparities.

Dr. O’Connell has worked in a number of roles throughout her career, but the main focus is on the work that she is currently doing with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Great Plains Tribal Epidemiology Center (GPTEC), and tribal communities.

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the existing vulnerabilities of Native American tribes. During this episode, Dr. O’Connell shares the challenges she has faced regarding public health data acquisition for these communities.
