The Sci-Files – 08/25/2019 – Tatiana Bustos – Health Services in Underserved Communities
August 26, 2019
On this week’s The Sci-Files, your hosts Chelsie and Danny interview Tatiana Bustos.
Tatiana is a 4th year Ph.D. student in the Ecological Community Psychology program at MSU. Her training is primarily in program evaluation, implementation science, and community-based research. Her work is focused on promoting access to health services among underserved communities. She has been involved in projects that prioritize the needs of Latinx communities and child mental health. For her doctoral work, she is studying how the collaboration of community-based organizations (CBOs) in health service systems can drive decisions for health policies and improve health disparities. Her project is applying network-based strategies to better support CBOs and system change efforts.

Chelsie is a Biomedical Engineering Ph.D. student at Michigan State University. She studies what happens to the extracellular matrix of cells after they have been stressed. She co-hosts "The Sci-Files" with Daniel Puentes. Together they explore the different topics that MSU students research on "The Sci-Files" at WDBM.
Daniel is a graduate student in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, where he does research at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory. His research involves measuring the mass of radioactive nuclei, and how it can tell us how protons and neutrons are arranged inside of a nucleus. This research also helps scientists understand how the elements were created in different stellar environments! At WDBM, he and Chelsie Boodoo co-host The Sci-Files.
