Today I spent most of the day following Mr.Balu through his meetings. Once again, I got to meet with more and more team members. In fact, one conversation went so well today I was invited to join the team over the summer. The more I spend time with this team the more I realize how much of an impact they have on public health. After looking through this year’s projects, there are many which sparked an interest in me. Some of these include monitoring gun violence in Durham, using AI to create a better navigation system for EMS, and creating a new system for recording the last conversations between doctors and dying patients.
Here’s a cool hat I got today.
