In this episode, we explore the collaboration between Rimsha Minhaz, an MPH student with a background in dentistry, and Dr. Wilson Wang, a pediatrician, health professional, and founder of WD Home and CEO of World Doctors. Driven by a desire to address disparities in healthcare access—a passion ignited by her experiences in outreach programs in South India—Rimsha pursued a Master of Public Health degree at NYU GPH. It was at NYU GPH that Rimsha's path intersected with Dr. Wang's when she took his course on data-driven decision making. Inspired by Dr. Wang's dedication to public health, including his work during the Ebola outbreak, Rimsha is now working with him through WD Home on a project focused on older person care management. This is a story of how passion meets purpose, and how a new generation of public health leaders is shaping a healthier future.
