      <description>“What are you going to do when you go back?”

It’s the question that set Jeannette Ickovics, PhD, a faculty affiliate at the Yale Institute of Global Health (YIGH), on a new trajectory toward global climate and health. After nearly five years at Yale-NUS College in Singapore, first as a visiting professor and later as dean of faculty, Ickovics found herself reflecting on what the next phase of her career might look like upon returning to New Haven.</description>

      <title>Specialized Emergency Departments for Older Adults Linked to Better Outcomes</title>
      <description>Specialized emergency departments for geriatric patients are a promising and potentially life-saving model of care, according to a new YSPH study. But as their use expands across the country, policymakers must tackle deeper inequities that are preventing all older adults from benefiting equally from the targeted care.</description>

      <title>Study Finds Persistent Lack of Diversity in U.S. Alzheimer’s Clinical Trials</title>
      <description>A new study led by researchers at the Yale School of Public Health finds that Alzheimer’s disease clinical trials in the U.S. have consistently failed to reflect the nation’s racial and ethnic diversity, raising important concerns about whether new treatments are equally safe and effective for all patients.</description>

      <description>The federal government has pledged to reduce levels of microplastics and pharmaceuticals in public drinking water.  YSPH environmental scientist Dr. Vasilis Vasiliou says the move is encouraging, but there is a lot of work to do, including defining a standard measurement for microplastics.
