FULBRIGHT SCHOLAR SPOTLIGHT: MICHAEL PRATT
Dr. Michael Pratt, Director of the UC San Diego's Master's of Public Health (MPH) Program, is spending the 2022-23 Academic Year in Palacky University Olomouc in the Czech Republic as a Fulbright Distinguished Chair, the most prestigious award offered by the Fulbright Scholar Program. Dr. Pratt has worked with peers at Palacky since 2010 through the International Physical Activity and the Environment Network (IPEN) Project and the Global Observatory for Physical Activity (GoPA!). Dr. Pratt intends to collaborate with peers and learn best practices from Palacky in order to advance the Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science (HWSPH) as a global leader in public health education and research.
Though this is Dr. Pratt's first Fulbright Award, he was instrumental in launching the Fulbright Chair in Public Health Sciences at HWSPH with Fulbright Brazil. UC San Diego hosted its first Chair, Dr. Pedro Hallal from the Universidade Federal de Pelotas (UFPel), in 2021.
