    Reflections on 40 Years in Global Health with Dr. Jim Yong Kim

    In this episode, Lauren welcomes a very special guest; Dr. Jim Yong Kim, partner, vice chairman, and Global Infrastructure Partners (a part of BlackRock) emerging markets chairman as well as former President of the World Bank Group and director of the World Health Organization’s HIV/AIDS department. Dr. Kim's background growing up in Iowa with Korean immigrant parents shaped his practical and moral approach to tackling complex global challenges. His dual MD-PhD training in medicine and anthropology allowed him to bridge the social sciences and practical applications, leading him to co-found the groundbreaking organization Partners in Health. At Partners in Health, Dr. Kim emphasized the importance of accompaniment and community health workers in providing equitable, effective care for the world's poorest populations. After serving as President of Dartmouth College, Dr. Kim was nominated by President Obama to lead the World Bank, where he applied his on-the-ground experience and commitment to moral leadership. Dr. Kim emphasizes the value of lifelong learning, humility, and learning from others as key aspects of effective leadership.

  2. Under the Weather: atmospheric science and public health Pt. 2

    Under the Weather: atmospheric science and public health Pt. 2

    This is part 2 of Lauren's conversation with Dr. Wang about his work in atmospheric science and implications for public health. Dr. Jun Wang's lab at the University of Iowa is developing innovative technologies for satellite remote sensing and low-cost environmental sensors to better understand and combat challenges like wildfires, air quality, and climate change. The satellite remote sensing allows them to extract 3D information about smoke layers and fire lines, providing critical data to predict air quality and support firefighting efforts. The low-cost "iCanopy" and "iAir" sensors measure air and soil conditions at a neighborhood scale, helping to address environmental justice issues and inform decision-makers about resource allocation. Dr. Wang's lab is leading an interdisciplinary project to study how severe weather and climate change are affecting rural communities, using sensor networks to collect high-resolution data and make it accessible to local citizens. The research aims to provide tangible, data-driven solutions to help rural communities better prepare for and adapt to the impacts of a changing climate.

    Under the Weather: atmospheric science and public health Pt. 1

    This two-part episode of the "Plugged In to Public Health" podcast features an interview with Dr. Jun Wang, an accomplished scientist and professor in the field of atmospheric sciences at the University of Iowa. Dr. Wang grew up in a rural community in eastern China, where he developed a fascination with weather and climate from a young age. He was inspired by observing the daily changes in weather and its impacts on agriculture in his hometown. After completing his bachelor's degree in atmospheric science in China, Dr. Wang pursued a master's degree and then a Ph.D. in the United States, where he specialized in satellite remote sensing and atmospheric chemistry. Dr. Wang's research combines satellite data and chemistry transport models to investigate critical topics such as air quality, wildfires, and the interactions between aerosols, clouds, and the land-atmosphere system. He has contributed to 10 satellite missions and holds numerous prestigious awards and accolades. In the interview, Dr. Wang discusses the collaborative, interdisciplinary nature of atmospheric research, as it intersects with fields like public health, agriculture, and renewable energy. He also provides insights into the accuracy and challenges of numerical weather prediction models. The second part of the interview will explore Dr. Wang's latest research projects, the future of remote sensing, and the next big challenges in atmospheric science.

    Climate Change and the Impacts on Vulnerable Populations

    Lauren's guest this week is Dr. Tamara Marcus. Dr. Marcus is a climate scientist and activist co-founding Empowered Solutions Collective, a sustainability consulting group in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Her journey began in undergraduate studies, where she pivoted from pre-med to climate research, working in diverse ecosystems around the world. As an activist, Dr. Marcus is committed to creating accessible, equitable sustainability projects that address the disproportionate impacts of climate change on vulnerable communities. Her work with Empowered Solutions Collective focuses on providing tailored solutions and community-informed initiatives, from resilience hubs to food access projects. Dr. Marcus emphasizes the importance of self-care and staying encouraged in this challenging work, stressing that solutions require collective, relationship-building efforts rather than just data or infrastructure alone. She advocates for more activist approaches in local government to drive urgent climate action.
