Catherine Mah. We've been working on this interview since January this year, because Catherine's work and research interests seem to overlap most things that are newsworthy in the food universe. This podcast is a great primer on health promotion and public health in the food systems context, which is important and expansive and powerful. Listen. Some notes:I'm guessing that Catherine's CV is seriously, like, 45 pages long and she's working on a billion projects.

S2E2: Catherine Mah on Public Health

This week my guest on Rural Routes is Dr. Catherine Mah, a researcher at Memorial University’s Faculty of Medicine in the Division of Community Health. Dr. Mah is interested in understanding food policy and food environments and their impacts on our health. Much of her research happens in rural areas. So come grocery shopping with us.
