Community-engaged “Data Fest” events
The research in this article examines a “Data Fest” approach that combines big data and social issues with a collaborative and community-engaged event. The authors describe Data Fest and present quantitative and qualitative analyses from three years of pre- and post-survey data collected at Data Fest events. Changes from pre- to post-surveys suggest Data Fest was associated with increased economic analysis skills, an increased sense that economet…

This has presented significant opportunities and challenges with regard to providing students and faculty with the needed academic and professional development to ensure graduates embody the skills needed for Public Health wo…
Prevalence, Characteristics, and Epidemiology of Microbial Hand Contamination Among Minnesota State Fair Attendees (2014)
Background: Many antimicrobial-resistant infections are community-acquired, yet community carriage of microorganisms by healthy individuals is poorly characterized. We assessed microorganism carriage on the hands of Minnesota State Fair attendees and explored associated factors. Methods: Minnesota State Fair attendees (in 2014) from households with ≥2 members (≥1 member being <19 years old [a child]) were eligible to participate. Participants pro…
Protective practices against zoonotic infections among rural and slum communities from South Central Chile
The levels of participation in protective practices reported in this study are consistent with descriptions in the literature of imperfect use of methods that reduce human exposure to zoonotic pathogens. The wide differences across communities in the proportion of households participating in protective practices against human exposure to zoonotic pathogens, suggests that future research should identify community-level characteristics that influen…
Leptospira Contamination in Household and Environmental Water in Rural Communities in Southern Chile
Leptospirosis is a zoonosis of global distribution that affects tropical and temperate areas. Under suitable conditions, Leptospira can survive in water and soil and contribute to human and animal infections. The objective of this study was to describe the presence of pathogenic Leptospira in peri-domestic water samples from rural households in southern Chile. Water samples, including puddles, containers, animal troughs, rivers, canals, and drink…
