Dan Callahan, an undergraduate public health student from Temple University, is joining HCIF’s population health team for the fall 2018 semester. Dan will support HCIF’s health literacy initiatives.

Dan views public health through the lens of helping others and devoting time and energy to causes that he is passionate about. He appreciates the broad applicability of public health principles to interactions from the micro (individual) to macro (policy) level. Some of his favorite classes at Temple University have been on topics like health education and health policy. In the future, Dan hopes to work towards meaningful and systematic policy change, potentially in a non-profit or government setting.

Dan is a diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan and was excited to cheer on his home team and attend the Super Bowl parade to revel over their amazing victory. He is looking forward to becoming repeat champions this season. Go Birds!
