The work of the Freeman Research Group is focused on assessing the role of the lived environment on the health of marginalized populations in low-income settings. Specifically, the complementary role WASH can play in mitigating the burden of neglected tropical diseases and the intersection of WASH and nutrition. Matthew Freeman serves on the global STH Advisory Committee and contracts and advises the World Health Organization on issues related to handwashing and hygiene, trachoma control, and STH control and WASH. He co-directs Emory's program in Global Environmental Health.
The UIC Global Health Colloquium is a lecture series sponsored by the Colleges of Medicine, Nursing, Applied Health Sciences, Pharmacy, Dentistry, and Social Work and the School of Public Health.
