Today is rare disease day. The disease I am highlighting is Batten Disease. Batten is a type of childhood dementia. There are ~14,000 children with the disease. There is no cure. https://t.co/21ckP1ffFY #UnCommonU @LinfieldUniv #globalhealth #raredisease #battendisease

@DanielZajic @LinfieldUniv Your students should also include art as their skill set. I love the creativity behind this magical assignment.

@DanielZajic @LinfieldUniv The chocolate chip cookies are the best! :-) I need to ask if you will take private orders.

[Jackie Leung @ProfJackieLeung]

@DanielZajic @LinfieldUniv The rum-apricort! whoa. <3

Today, in Introduction to Public and Community health, we have Elan Adre, the Diabetes Prevention Program from OHSU.

As an educator, guest speakers who talk about careers in public health is an important resource.

A shout out to my students in HHPA 250: Prevention and Control of Diseases. One of their assignments involves being a "Disease Scientist."

Take a look at their group names and the diseases that they have selected.

One of the classes I teach is HSCI 440: Epidemiology.
Below is a screenshot of Challenge #3: Part 1 requires identifying an area of epidemiology. Part 2 is playing a game on the CDC, "Solving an Outbreak".

One important aspect about a career in public health is engagement. Earlier today, I attended the Racial Justice Council, Health Equity Committee.
