Brandon T Workman

Program Director of the Continuing Education Programs in the College of Medicine's Department of Environmental and Public Health Sciences. As a public health researcher, my work focuses on assessing risk factors for chronic conditions, developing prevention messaging, addressing environmental health issues, advocating for environmental justice, and engaging communities to promote health and sustainability. I have experience with assessment and evaluation of health disparities for individuals facing respiratory issues and various other health challenges. I also have experience providing messaging and interventions through grants and contracts, to improve health literacy of vulnerable populations.
