Tufts Community TABLE (Teaching and Building Local Engagement) brought medical education and hands-on nutrition education together in the community. 🥘

As part of the inaugural cohort, Tufts medical students partnered with Bowdoin Street Health Center to put culinary medicine into practice alongside community members. Students adapted cachupa, a traditional Cape Verdean dish, to align with DASH guidelines while preserving its cultural authenticity and flavor.

Thank you to Chef Saba Chef Saba Wahid Duffy for sharing her time and expertise and supporting our students throughout the curriculum!

🗣️MPH STUDENT HIGHLIGHT: Hyatt Aronoff🚨🌎🥗

We asked Hyatt (MS-Nutrition/MPH student) what he’s been up to this summer:

“I spent this summer as an intern at the Boston Public Health Commission through the Massachusetts Department of Health’s local summer internship program! In between classes and interning I tried to find time to move my body, travel, and spend time with friends (including celebrating my best friend’s wedding)! I’m excited for what this next year will bring!“

So proud of you, Hyatt!

Experiential learning took our students beyond the classroom this summer in Global Nutrition in Action (PH 233) taught by Dr. Kimberly D**g Breen at the Tufts Center in Talloires, France! 🇫🇷

From exploring local farmers’ markets to attending a global food conference and visiting the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), students experienced firsthand how global nutrition concepts come to life across food systems, policy, and culture.

“Staying in Annecy, France added so much to the experiential learning of PH 233! We were able to apply concepts from class directly to the field, whether that was through local farmers’ markets or visiting cheese producers. It not only helped solidify the practical application of global nutrition, but it was also so much fun to see it all firsthand and be immersed in the local culture.” — MPH student, Marjorie Pradhan

Grateful for opportunities like these that help prepare our students to become thoughtful, globally minded public health leaders. 🌍

A group of our MPH students attended this semester’s Tufts Table event! Thank you to the Office of Vice Provost for Institutional Inclusive Excellence and the Tufts Table Planning Committee for creating an enriching and meaningful experience. This year’s theme, “Stories That Shape Our Community: Where Paths Cross & Divide,” invited powerful reflection and dialogue across the community.

We asked Ashley Dasika (second from left) to share her experience:
“Tufts Table lets me connect with people I would have otherwise never met and creates space to authentically share diverse experiences. I leave having learned so much from new perspectives, and I love the chance to work toward the common goal of making our school a more inclusive place alongside members of the Tufts community”

Program Director Dr. Kimberly D**g and Tufts students were proud to participate in the ASPPH Annual Meeting 2026, joining leaders across academia, government, and practice to advance the future of public health.

A key highlight of the meeting was the closing plenary, “Leading with Purpose: Power, Partnership, and the Path to Health Equity,” featuring Rev. Shavon Arline-Bradley. The session emphasized value-driven leadership, cross-sector collaboration, and the importance of trust in advancing equitable health outcomes nationwide and globally.

Tufts representatives also participated in ASPPH Hill Day, where faculty, students, and partners met with congressional offices to advocate for sustained federal investment in public health. These conversations reinforced funding priorities across national public health agencies such as NIH, CDC, and HRSA, and advanced the recognition of public health as a professional degree.

Together, these engagements reflect Tufts’ ongoing commitment to leadership in public health education, policy, and practice.
