Description

In this episode, we speak with Natalia De La Viña, an MPH candidate specializing in global health at NYU GPH, and explore the critical topic of health equity for Latin and Indigenous communities. With a background that uniquely blends neuroscience and Spanish, Natalia shares her journey and her commitment to serving these communities, particularly in the transborder region. We'll discuss her experiences as a pre-diabetes educator, addressing chronic conditions like diabetes through patient education and resource provision, and her passion for tackling healthcare access disparities and social determinants of health. Natalia also shares her experiences as a medical interpreter, her initiative founding the LINEN (Latin and Indigenous Native Health Equity Network) club, and her vision for future work with surgical rotation clinics in Latin America.
