Summary

Kathrine E. Wright earned her Ph.D. in w88 live casino Health from the University of Nevada, Reno, in August 2020. Her research focuses on food insecurity and food inequity and the role these two constructs have in creating health disparities. Wright utilizes a CBPR approach to address cultural level factors that may alleviate food insecurity and associated poor health outcomes. Her dissertation research incorporated anthropological theories and concepts through a w88 live casino health lens to understand how cultural food security impacts cultural identity and well-being. She believes that a multi-disciplinary approach that combines w88 live casino health and anthropology is needed to tackle particular food insecurity aspects not widely addressed.
