USU Students Participate in the 2023 DC Public Health Case Challenge, Gain First-Hand Knowledge of Building a Critical Public Health Plan

Nov 28, 2023

Joshua Trowell takes a break after presenting a poster at a Preventive Medicine and Biostatistics conference to hop in an interview. He’s in a hallway at the Uniformed Services University (USU), speaking on his phone. That’s how driven he is to get the word out about the health challenge he and his team just participated in. It was the 10th Annual DC Public Health Case Challenge. The challenge brings together teams from local universities with schools or programs of public health to promote interdisciplinary and problem-based learning around a health issue affecting the area. Each team consists of three to six members, from at least three different disciplines. The teams have two weeks and a hypothetical $1 million budget. Tasked with building a proposal, the team then presents before a panel of expert judges. This year’s topic was “A Public Health Approach to Improve the Health of Women Experiencing Homelessness in D.C.” The event occurred October 6 at the National Academies of Sciences in Washington, D.C. The USU team presented a proposal titled “EMPOWER HER: A Holistic Healthcare Initiative for Women who Experience Homelessness in the Heart of Washington, D.C.” And even though his team didn’t place in the competition, Trowell is eager to talk about the experience. The team included six USU students: Trowell, a PhD candidate in Public Health, Navy Lt. Matthew Horch, an MPH student in the Occupational and Environmental Health residency program, Teresa Russell, PhD candidate in Public Health, Army Maj. Marjorie Brooks, Graduate School of Nursing, Navy Ensign Norbert Owusu, Master of Public Health Administration and Policy student, and Hyun Lee, PhD candidate in Molecular and Cell Biology.
