Connections

"In this issue: we hear from students who have had the opportunity to connect with others from around the world who share a similar passion; we learn about the impact that the experience of going to a developing country and connecting with people there can have on a student’s perception of Health and Medicine; and we discover the effect that climate change has on global health, illustrating the necessity for health professionals to connect with people from other sectors.

We all come from different backgrounds, different states, and different schools, but we are connected through medicine, and it is important that we not only maintain this connection, but extend it to health in the broader context; global health.

We hope that vector magazine continues to encourage you to make these connections, and pursue your own goals in global health."
