Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health

Listen, I... [laughs] It may sound so cliche, but I owe everything to the University of Memphis School of Public Health because I really enjoyed my time there.

I enjoyed being able to be connected to different organizations such as ASPPH and, um, be involved in other great opportunities that I don't think that I would have been able to.

So I owe a lot to them.

But the environment at Memphis is so student-based and uplifting that my time there, I felt that if there was anything that I needed, any support that I needed, I, I got it there.

We can take time to evolve and grow, and that that is such an important part of the process as we're on these personal and professional journeys.

And thank you so much to all of our listeners, uh, for joining us for this episode of Idea Exchange.

If you are interested in sharing your work or participating in a future episode, we invite you to stay connected with the Idea Institute and ASPPH.

Thank you for helping us turn ideas into action within academic public health.

But yeah, I definitely think like there is a lot of value in what you're saying.

And I love the idea of like technology being the equalizer and something that can support, you know, more efficiency across an organization and in the work that happens.

ASPPH recently released its AI framework for academic public health.
