"The track has been instrumental in facilitating my collaborations with researchers and practitioners across institutions and disciplines. Being this early in my scholarly career, having SDGHI’s support really opened new avenues for me to expand our network within the serious illness and broader global health community. It has also helped tremendously in my efforts to communicate our research to a wider audience.”
