About the Author
Previous
Bobby
Milstein, PhD, MPH, works at the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention where he leads the Syndemics Prevention Network and also
coordinates planning and evaluation activities for emerging
investigations and policy initiatives in chronic disease, environmental
health, emergency preparedness, and health system improvement. He
specializes in understanding transformations of public health work that
arise in situations where there are multiple interacting epidemics, or
syndemics. This work involves a close analysis of the concepts, methods,
and moral considerations that guide health protection ventures, along
with a synthesis of techniques from other areas of applied science such
as dynamic modeling, democratic organizing, and social navigation. With
an academic background that combines cultural anthropology, behavioral
science, and systems science, he has guided the development of CDC’s
framework for program evaluation and often consults on the role of
dynamic, democratic processes in improving health and health equity.
