Faculty
The SM-MMH program was launched in 2022 by the HMS Department of Global Health and Social Medicine, following the success of the Media and Medicine: How to Tell Stories to Make a Difference certificate program. We are honored to have many Harvard-based faculty members who serve as course instructors, guest lecturers, and mentors for the program. We invite you to read more about the program's faculty and instructors to gain a better understanding of the program.
