Ep. 7 - Public Health & The Death Gap ft. Jessica Puri

GUEST


Jessica Puri is a Nigerian-born Public Health professional with
years of experience in scientific writing, health research and
public health communication on the Bachelor’s and Master’s level.
She currently works with Executives at MATTER, an incubator that
bridges the communication gap between innovators in every aspect
of healthcare.


OVERVIEW


BrownTown talks #ChiHealth, the social determinants of health,
and how policy affects an individual's environment. Jessica leads
the conversation by sharing experiences both on the job at
MATTER, in her education, and as a fellow Chicagoan using the
tools she's acquired as a professional to help explain what
health disparities are and how we can improve our communities.
Lessons from Dr. Camara Jones Gardner's Tale parable and David
Ansell's book The Death Gap help guide the discussion.
