- Abstract
- Once upon a time, thinking about disease in a global context was the purview of a few doctors who researched and documented the diseases of the tropics, colonies and Southern Hemisphere. Today, global health is an academic discipline that uses academic expertise in the humanities, social and natural sciences to explain health disparities both at home and abroad. This thesis looks at global health in North Carolina and shows how institutions, students and the local economy have embraced global health.
