MSc International Public Health was the perfect option for physician Divine Tim Bonghaseh MD, who joined @LJMUPHI from Cameroon, where he worked with rural communities to prevent premature mortality from #cardiovascular disease. Tim shares his story 👇 #ljmu

The popularity and rapid growth of e-cigs has raised much concern about their impact on children and young people. Earlier this year, PHI colleagues published research which builds on our understanding of how children perceive e-cigs. #WorldChildrensDay
👇🏻Newly published paper from PHI on schoolchildren’s perception of e-cigs. Great team effort 👍🏻
