Spartan Researcher Leads Public Health Outreach in Pakistan
Of the many lessons reinforced during 2020 and 2021, the idea that animal and human health are interconnected has sat at the forefront of many public health discussions. This topic is one of many recently addressed by a Spartan scientist looking to make a difference.
Kher-Kun, which means “well-wisher” in Arabic, is a nonprofit founded and headed by Dr. Azam Ali Sher, a student in the MSU College of Veterinary Medicine’s dual-degree doctoral program. The organization aims to provide “public health education to far-flung Pakistani villages,” and it does so with outreach efforts that include, among other avenues, webinars and virtual trainings.
The goal: recruit passionate students from diverse academic and regional backgrounds to train in public health topics with public health experts and Fulbright scholars overseas.
