October 16, 2024 – A podcast series by Brittney Francis, research scientist at the François-Xavier Bagnoud (FXB) Center for Health & Human Rights at Harvard University, is aimed at exploring the web of structural determinants that fuel health disparities among marginalized communities.
The biweekly series—Higher Education with Dr. B Fran—launched in September. It features Francis in conversation with leading experts, innovators, and change-makers as they explore the root causes of inequities and share strategies to create a more just health landscape.
Recent guests on the podcast included Tanisha Spratt, senior lecturer in racism and health at King’s College, London, discussing how global racialization, colonialism, and xenophobia intersect with public health; and FXB research associate Tori Cowger, exploring the global connections between music, segregation, and health inequality.
