Why become a member of INSIGHT?
Susan Morton on ‘What is INSIGHT? In less than a minute!
When we think about solving health issues, we often defer to the field of health research. But actually, when we think about the complex and entrenched health issues that are facing our population today, really the problems occur because of a multitude of exposures over time to many different factors occurring across the life course.
So if we're going to find new ways to find new solutions to some of these health issues that we have faced for decades, we actually need to come together across traditional silos.
So if you're someone who is driven to make a difference to people's lives, if you want to improve population wellbeing, then become a member of INSIGHT.
Join us coming together across disciplines to actually make change for our populations.
Health and wellbeing.
