Welcome to my blog! 

Hello everyone! 

My name is Fatima, and I’ve started Pulse & Pathways (a website/portfolio/blog) for two main reasons: 1) to inform and educate others on various healthcare and public health topics using relevant scientific literature, and 2) to create a space to reflect on my academic journey, and the things I’ve been learning so far. 

A little about me -I’m a motivated public health enthusiast and researcher with a background in administration, and health research, and am looking to expand my background in public health via creating this blog. 

Some of the things you’ll see on this blog include research report summaries, reflective posts on  current events related to public health, posts explaining various public health topics, and an overall reflection on what I’ve learned/done at the end of the month(to keep me accountable, of course ;). I’m looking to post 1 to 2 times a week. 

Finally, I’m hoping that these posts can provide some insight and conversation into the current state of healthcare in BC(and Canada) , and make complex ideas accessible - one post at a time 💙.
