Insights from a Public Health and Preventive Medicine (PHPM) Resident

Public Health and Preventative Medicine (PHPM) is the branch of medicine concerned with the health of populations, rather than focusing on individual people as patients. In this episode (part 2 of 2) of the Public Health Insight Podcast, Dr. Yipeng Ge, a PHPM resident, talks about why he decided to pursue this specialty amongst the many others. He also shares his thoughts about the role of this particular discipline in community, national, and global leadership, as well as advocacy for healthy public policy. Podcast Guests Dr. Yipeng GeReferences for Our Discussion Canadiam Medical Association (CMA): Public Health and Preventive Medicine ProfilePublic Health Physicians of Canada: What Is Public Health and Preventive MedicineUniversity of Ottawa Faculty of Medicine: Public Health and Preventive Medicine Residency ProgramPodcast Co-HostsWilliam Wang, BA, MPHBen Umakanthan, HBSc, MPHLinda Holdbrook, BSc, MPHShare Your Thoughts With Us!Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
