ABOUT US
We are a group of undergraduate (some of us soon to be alum) students studying Human Biology & Society at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). As a group of individuals dedicated to studying the intersection of science and society, the Covid-19 Pandemic has appealed to our interests and skillsets. This pandemic has been a prime example of situations our course of study prepares future leaders in science, medicine, public policy and public health to address. We take great pride in our ability to analyze problems with an interdisciplinary lens required for initiating necessary paradigm shifts in public health.
