Data is a necessity when understanding the issues facing indigenous communities, and indigenous perspectives on this data and how to implement changes within the social context are key to successful interventions. Talking to us on this episode about why this is the case, is Dyani Bingham, board member at Montana Public Health Institute. Dyani started her academic career in art and culture, however, through personal tragedy, she discovered her calling in public health. Join us to hear about the issues Dyani is currently working on, what her role within the organization is, and why she feels epidemiology is important in the interventions she has been involved with. We wrap up this episode with Dyani’s advice to young public health epidemiologists trying to find their niche, and how to tackle the overwhelming diversity of opportunities facing public health specialists. For all this and so much more, tune in today.   PHEC Podcast Show Notes: https://www.drchhuntley.com/podcast Business Strategy Workshop For Public Health Consultants: https://www.PublicHealthEntrepreneurs.com  Public Health Consulting & Entrepreneurship EXPO: https://PublicHealthEXPO.com/
