How do you tackle disparities in public health? Drexel University is going to try to find out with a new grant from the National Institutes of Health. The Drexel University Dornsife School of Public Health and College of Nursing and Health Professions recently received an NIH grant for $14.4 million dollars over five years. The money is for the hiring of diverse early career researchers who will focus their research on health disparities. We wanted to learn more about the importance of this grant - and why studying health disparities is important in the first place - so we caught up with Dr. Ana Diez Roux, Dean of the Dornsife School of Public Health at Drexel University.
