Stanford alumna develops Public Health and Social Justice Website
Martin T Donohoe, MD, FACP (Stanford/Palo Alto VA, '94-'96) recently developed a website covering public health and social justice, which can be found at http://www.phsj.org or at http://www.publichealthandsocialjustice.org . This website contains articles, slide shows, syllabi, and other documents relevant to topics in public health and social justice. References for most of the information contained in the slide shows can be found in the accompanying articles. Presentations will be updated a few times per year. The site is aimed at students, educators, and the general public.
Some of the content focuses on the medical humanities and the history of medicine. Dr. Donohoe is hoping to add other syllabi and articles from the many talented individuals working in this area. Please email him any articles and/or slide shows you would be willing to share, along with comments, corrections, and suggestions regarding his
content.
