The course both teaches research skills and explores the impact of poor health through real-life case studies in seven key areas: water-related diseases; pain; alcohol; breast cancer; chronic lung disease; trauma and accidents; and visual impairment. Each case study integrates the biological, chemical, and physical sciences with psychology, health statistics, and social studies to illuminate underlying causes and personal and societal consequences.
