Since the dawn of organized human societies, people across space and time have tried various approaches to promote health and extend longevity by preventing early or untimely death. Throughout history, pandemics such as the Black Death and COVID-19 have shown us that having good health is more than the absence of illnesses. Macrosocial factors such as culture, mass media, economics, political systems, the environment, and migration all play a role in shaping the health of a nation and its citizens. To tackle these seemingly intractable problems requires collaborative methods that transcend “disciplinary boundaries.” The overarching mission of the Center of Population Sciences for Health Equity (C-PSHE) is to promote health equity and reduce health disparities among marginalized, underserved, and vulnerable populations. We will accomplish this by participating in community-engaged scientific and operational research and practices and employing the principles and tools of population science.
Students will support literature review for various manuscripts at C-PSHE relating to health disparities including HIV, chronic diseases, violence, trauma, and other topics.

Read and summarize research articles, develop a list of research article summaries for a given topic, synthesize multiple research article summaries into a coherent paragraph on a given topic, use a reference management software (e.g. Endnote or Zotero) to develop in-text citations
Students will earn co-authorship on published manuscripts

1) Collaboratively create an understanding of how we envision teamwork. We always start by discussing what works well for all parties to develop a compact. This is a roadmap of what kind of communication works well, what kinds of rules we want to set for ourselves, and how we will operate as a team. We will revisit the compact regularly through the course of the project.
2) Identify common interests and long-term goals. We always want to know a students’ interests and long-term goals so that a learning experience can be tailored to best fit these interests and goals.
3) Develop foundational understanding and skills in scientific research. Our goal is to help UROP students develop an understanding of behavioral health research through an applied project. This will serve as a foundation for future endeavors.
4) Encourage independent-learning and intellectual curiosity. While we provide educational resources to our students, we also encourage students to learn independently, seek resources, and develop an intellectual curiosity that will serve them if they pursue graduate coursework.
5) Meet a student where they are at. We are a team that comes from a variety of backgrounds, immigrants, US-born, Black, Indigenous, Asian, white, gay, queer, heterosexual, first-generation college graduates, etc. We strive to meet students where they are at in regard to identity or experience with the understanding that we all come from different backgrounds which may impact the ways we experience academic endeavors including power structures within academia.
