Register for Data + Donuts.

Katharine (Kate) Robb is a Senior Research Associate at the Bloomberg Harvard City Leadership Initiative. She works on applied research and innovative approaches to solve urban environmental health challenges. She completed her doctorate of public health degree at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in 2019. Currently, she leads studies focused on housing and health and how city governments can leverage their existing data and resources to be more effective, efficient, and equitable in responding to public health problems.

At this session of Data + Donuts, Kate will talk about her recent work collaborating with cities to improve the health and safety of neighborhoods through leveraging data, collaboration, and innovation. She’ll discuss findings from practices at the intersection of community development, code enforcement, and social services.

Kate's talk will be given in a hybrid format. Register to receive a link to join via Zoom. In-person attendees can join us in Wexner 330. Those without an HUID may enter via the Wexner security desk after showing a photo ID. View a map of campus.
