"It is ... incredibly rewarding to develop my understanding of specific topics such as the adaptation of infectious disease interventions to conflict and post-conflict settings ... Furthermore … I appreciate working as a team. Hearing differing perspectives from team members not only strengthens our papers but influences my own understanding and how I approach the review process. As someone with a strong focus on social justice and equity in health, I value being able to contribute to projects that will undoubtedly have a positive impact.” - Ginger M.
