Research Seminar Series

The research seminar series provides opportunities to learn about new areas in urban health research and explores ways research can impact practice and policy in urban settings.

The Drexel Urban Health Collaborative works to improve health in cities by increasing scientific knowledge and public awareness of health and health variation within cities, and by promoting urban policies and partnerships that promote health and reduce health inequalities.
