Jennifer Lawson, M.D., Theology, Medicine, and Culture Fellowship alumna, and clinical associate at the Duke Department of Pediatrics will co-lead the group. The group will apply the ecosystem concept to health and explore new perspectives on health systems, population health, well-being, and disease. During monthly meetings, members will consider a range of questions and engage in activities whose focus will encompass capstone projects, seminars, and future grant proposals. It is one of eight groups across Duke receiving grants of $1,000 to $5,000 to foster interdisciplinary collaboration around new and emerging areas of interest.
