Science

Matters: Let's

Talk About

COVID-19

Welcome to ‘Science Matters: Let's Talk about COVID-19’, from the Abdul Latif Jameel

Institute for Disease and Emergency Analytics (J-IDEA) at Imperial College London.\n\nThe

outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is the most significant public health

emergency of the 21st century so far. As the epidemic spreads, people around the world want

to understand the science behind the most pressing questions: how many people have been

infected? How dangerous is the virus? When will a vaccine be available? How can the

epidemic be contained, and the damages mitigated? What is the economic impact? What’s

the role of social media and local communities in the epidemic response? \n\nResearchers at

J-IDEA and other research institutes at Imperial College London have been at the forefront of

the response to the COVID-19 emergency, with clinical, epidemiological and social science

analyses informing the outbreak response. They are generating robust empirical evidence that

governments and international agencies are using around the world to plan their responses.

\n\nOn this course, you will hear directly from our world-class experts about the theory behind

the analyses of COVID-19 and its spread, while learning how to interpret new information

using core principles of public health, epidemiology, medicine, health economics, and social

science. You will be able to watch regular situation reports about the state of the epidemic,

provided by the researchers of J-IDEA and its director Professor Neil Ferguson. \n\nIf you

want to learn even more about these topics, a number of free MOOCs are available from

Imperial College London. We also offer a fully online Global Master of Public Health for those

of you who want to delve even deeper and join our professional community. \n\nPlease

note:\n\nThis course was launched in February 2020 and we have continued to develop

content as the COVID-19 situation progresses and new insights emerge. While we endeavour

to include the most recent information, this is a fast-moving situation and information is

constantly changing. \n\nThis course is to be used for educational purposes only and is open

to all and free of charge. \n\nThe information in this course does not constitute clinical or other

advice and must not be used for the purposes of providing any clinical or other advice. If you

Contact

Tracing

The COVID-19 crisis has created an unprecedented need for contact

tracing across the country, requiring thousands of people to learn key skills

quickly. The job qualifications for contact tracing positions differ throughout

the country and the world, with some new positions open to individuals with

a high school diploma or equivalent. \n\nIn this introductory course,

students will learn about the science of SARS-CoV-2 , including the

infectious period, the clinical presentation of COVID-19, and the evidence

for how SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted from person-to-person and why contact

tracing can be such an effective public health intervention. Students will

learn about how contact tracing is done, including how to build rapport with

cases, identify their contacts, and support both cases and their contacts to

stop transmission in their communities. The course will also cover several

important ethical considerations around contact tracing, isolation, and

quarantine. Finally, the course will identify some of the most common

barriers to contact tracing efforts -- along with strategies to overcome them.

COVID-19

Times

You may be encountering a world unlike any other generation. The public health

crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic has created a context of pervasive uncertainty,

heightened anxiety, and social isolation that overlaps with a critical time of your

own learning and development. The COVID-19 pandemic also has exacerbated

long-standing inequalities and disparities, and recent events in the United States

have laid bare historical and current realities of racism and systemic oppression.

These challenges make starting college complicated in unprecedented ways,

compounded by the fact that our university settings are themselves complex and

rapidly changing. These challenges also present unique opportunities for

interdisciplinary and practical learning. \n\nThis course aims to help you navigate

this world and the new conditions for learning with knowledge and skill. We

designed the course with participatory methods, which means that we asked

students to take a key role as partners with faculty in designing the course content,

structure, and learning experiences. Together, we sought to integrate faculty

expertise with the perspectives and experiences of students to make the course

material relevant to your life. \n\nIn this class, we will explore perspectives on

disease and society and on systemic racism and inequality with scholars in the

natural sciences, social sciences, arts and humanities, education, communications

and media, and engineering. Engaging these disciplines to examine the complex

problems of the global pandemic and systemic racism will help you build conceptual

and practical skills that you will use throughout college and beyond. \n\nIn

conjunction with investigating health and social crises, new and ongoing, we also

will explore the science and practice of individual and community wellness. You will

learn skills relevant to emotions, relationships, common mental health concerns,

and learning in the age of Zoom and remote classes. You will learn practices of

cooperation, compassion, and anti-racism for community wellness.\n\nWelcome

Desde la aparición del nuevo coronavirus a finales del 2019, el virus se ha

extendido a todos los rincones de la tierra. Los costos han sido altísimos

porque los contagios han ido aumentando y la pérdida de vidas humanas,

lo que forzó una nueva “normalidad” de cómo hacer la atención en salud.

El reto de cuidar la salud de los pacientes y sus familias, y nuestras

comunidades aledañas, es titánico. ¿Cómo ofrecer servicios de salud de

calidad durante esta crisis?, ¿cómo hacerle para no descuidar la atención

a pacientes con enfermedades crónicas mientras evitamos exponerlos a

riesgos innecesarios? \n\nAlgunas de las soluciones más socorridas se

han construido sobre la telesalud, estrategia que hemos de abordar en

este curso. La telesalud se refiere a la estrategia integral de ofrecer

atención a la salud, capacitación para profesionales de la salud en

desarrollo, reuniones administrativas o mantenimiento de un expediente

trabajadores sociales de forma remota.\n\nLos objetivos del curso son los

siguientes:\n•\tIdentificar estrategias para la comunicación efectiva con el

paciente y su familia en entornos virtuales y a distancia.\n•\tDiscutir los

principios que rigen el trabajo interdisciplinario para la atención de la salud

de forma remota.\n•\tEvaluar las tendencias de tecnología que habilitan la

Introduction to

Climate

Change and

Health

Climate change is one of the greatest threats to human health in the 21st

century. Yet these impacts to health are still not well recognized. Since you

can’t change what you don’t understand, this course is designed to equip

health and environmental professionals, as well as other changemakers

and the public, with critical and usable knowledge to take positive action.

The course begins with an introduction to the science of climate change

and how climate change affects human health. It takes a deep dive into

climate change’s adverse health effects, including those related to extreme

heat, waterborne infections, insect-borne diseases, and exposure to storms

and floods. Throughout, the theme of health equity is interwoven by

pointing to what factors make some populations more vulnerable than

others to climate change’s negative health impacts. Finally, the course

explains how measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions can not only

limit future climate change but can also generate substantial immediate

health “co-benefits” over and above the benefit of reducing climate

change.\n\nFollowing completion of the course, students will be able to: \n·

At an introductory level, describe how the climate has changed, explain

the role of greenhouse gases in climate change, and describe how the

climate is predicted to change in the future. \n· Describe how climate

change adversely impacts population health, with differing vulnerability

across population sub-groups, through direct effects; through ecosystem

transformation and degradation; and through the stress it places on

political, economic, and social systems. \n· Explain how adaptation and

mitigation strategies can reduce adverse health impacts of climate change

and can generate substantial non-climate health benefits in a just and

equitable manner.

Humanitarian

Crises 1

This course, Public Health in Humanitarian Crises 1, introduces discussions about

the public health approach to problems experienced by people affected by

disasters, both natural and related to conflict. The course discusses the many

changes which occur in people’s lives when they are uprooted by a disaster,

ranging from changes in disease patterns, access to health care, livelihoods,

shelter, sanitary conditions, nutritional status, etceteras. We will explore what

humanitarian interventions could look like if we want to mitigate the effects of

disasters. The course content is a mix of theoretical knowledge and many practical

examples from recent disasters. We think this course is unique because it contains

so many practical ‘real-life’ examples and is taught by instructors and guest

lecturers who together have over 200 years of experience in this field. \n\nThe

course consists of 10 modules totaling approximately 9-10 hours of delivered

content with an additional 2-3 hours of self-work (quizzes and writing and

evaluating a short peer-review assignment) as well as lively discussions forums.

The course has been designed in a way that each module builds on the lessons of

previous modules. However, you may do the modules in any order and some can

be done separately. \n\nYou do not have to pay for this course if you choose to

enroll without a certificate. Sometimes referred to as auditing, enrolling without a

certificate means that you will have access to all of the videos, quizzes,

assignments, and discussions. The only difference is that you will not receive a

certificate upon completion. Click the Enroll Without a Certificate link to sign up and

begin the course. Even if you enroll in a session that has yet to begin, you may

access most of the course materials right away by clicking the Preview Course

Materials link. However, you will have to wait for the session to begin before

posting your comments on the discussion forum or accessing the final peer-

reviewed assessment. Visit the Learner Help Center for details about session

schedules.\n\nIf you want to learn more, there is a second course which follows

this one entitled, Public Health in Humanitarian Crises 2. We welcome you to take

this. The course has a similar set-up and discusses additional topics, such as

infectious disease outbreaks, disease epidemiology, maternal and newborn health,

mental health, humanitarian project design, humanitarian principles, and many

other topics.

In the Healthcare Marketplace specialization capstone course, key skills

are engendered from the four prior courses to create an original medical

innovation valuation. \n\nThe first course in the specialization teaches the

learner to size a population or market. The second course teaches

whether the clinician will or will not find value from deploying a new

innovation. The third course identifies the competitive landscape of

medical technology innovations to compete or complement. The fourth

course, teaches how to put a monetary value on the improvement in health

resulting from a new innovation. The summary of these elements creates a

document of high strategic value where the learner has demonstrated not

only an understanding of the marketplace but what is required for the

marketplace to advance. This is what is accomplished during the

The Critical

Role of IT

Support Staff

in Healthcare

This is a very exciting time to be exploring a career in Health IT Support! In

this introductory course, you’ll learn about various roles in IT support that

are common in healthcare. IT support staff play critical roles in many

different healthcare venues. In addition to helping clinics, hospitals, and

emergency rooms, you may end up providing support in a skilled nursing

facility, ambulatory surgical center, virtual care setting, or even a patient’s

home! On any given day, you may interact with nurses, physicians,

pharmacists, physical therapists, social workers, other allied health

professionals, patients or caregivers. Each of these individuals rely on IT

support specialists to help them maintain a high reliability healthcare

organization. As you learn about what makes Health IT unique, we hope

you find inspiration in the stories shared by some of our very own IT

support staff at Johns Hopkins. They’ll talk to you about the most common

problems they help resolve as well as the complexity and range of issues

that arise. Whether you dream of being an end-user computer support

specialist, working at a healthcare help desk, or rising to an analyst role,

we’re thrilled that you are embarking upon this journey. Welcome again!

Information

Technology

Fundamentals

In this course you will receive an overview of the health IT ecosystem with

a specific focus on the role of electronic health records (EHRs). You’ll be

introduced to the factors that contributed to the move from paper records to

digitized records and who the most common vendors are. We’ll go over

features of EHRs such as computerized provider order entry, clinical

decision support, documentation capabilities, and medication

reconciliation. Like a physician’s stethoscope, the EHR has become an

important tool in healthcare delivery and plays a part throughout the

patient’s journey. You’ll go through each of the steps from patient

scheduling, to front desk registration, outpatient visits, emergency room

encounters, and inpatient admissions. \n\nDuring the course, we’ll also

cover examples of how technical issues related to the EHR can be as

simple as problems with logging or password resets. But how they can also

be more complex related to alerts that are firing and the display of

information. Although some of those challenges are beyond the scope of

the IT support staff, having familiarity with the scope of potential problems

and the broader EHR landscape is important. This course also includes an

introduction to database architecture, servers, and interfaces. We wrap up

by discussing the importance of training end-users on healthcare

technology and the way in which effective change management strategies

are crucial.

Data Security,

Privacy, and

Compliance

In the final course of the Healthcare IT Support program, we will focus on

the types of healthcare data that you need to be aware, complexities of

security and privacy within healthcare, and issues related to compliance

and reporting. As a health IT support specialist, you’ll be exposed to

different types of data sources and data elements that are utilized in

healthcare. It’s important for you to understand the basic language of

healthcare data and for you to recognize the sensitive nature of protected

health information (PHI). Maintaining data privacy and security is

everyone’s responsibility, including IT support staff! We’ll go into detail

about HIPAA and the risks associated with security breaches, ransomware

and phishing. We’ll go into detail about some of the key laws and

regulations specific to healthcare and the importance of compliance with

them. \n\nYou'll leave this course well versed on the Stark Law, the Joint

Commission and the purpose of quality measures. \n\nWe wrap up the

Healthcare IT Support certificate with tips on job interviews, skills that can

make you standout, and words of advice on the endless possibilities in this

dynamic and growing field. Make sure you talk to others who’ve been there

before about the process of being hired at a large health system. Be rest

assured that you’ll receive training when you start a new role, and you

might even be partnered with someone else for the first few weeks as you

get onboarded. Remember, this is not the end--rather, it’s just the

beginning of the next step in your journey!

where you get health care treatment or where you delivery health care?

Have you ever thought that there should be a way for you to determine the

relative quality of your choices? Have you found yourself thinking that there

quality and quality improvement programs, measures, and data in

healthcare organizations. The course provides links to external sites to

connect you to the larger "real world" of healthcare organization quality and

quality improvement. The links also serve as resources you can take with

you after you complete the course experience. And because everyone

Introduction to

Participatory

Approaches in

Public Health

This course will introduce you to participatory approaches to public health.

You will learn about the history of participatory health research and why it

is essential to solving contemporary public health challenges. The course

will help you to understand the social and cultural context of public health,

before introducing you to essential concepts for working with communities:

knowledge and power. Finally, you will engage with critical analyses of

participatory approaches, to help you to determine if and when such

strategies are appropriate. Throughout the course you will analyse real-

world case studies of community-based health projects, including historical

HIV social movements, public health projects with sex workers, and

participatory approaches to the COVID-19 pandemic. The course will equip

you to practice public health in partnership with local communities. It is

followed by a second course, Applying Participatory Approaches in Public

Health Settings, which builds upon the theoretical foundations of this

introductory course.

Applying

Participatory

Approaches in

Public Health

Settings

This course specifically explores approaches and tools and how to apply

them in public health settings. Students will learn how to critically analyse

the power dynamics present between multidisciplinary stakeholders and

appreciate the need for reciprocity between those delivering and those

receiving health care; between both those conducting and those

participating in research. They will also learn how to select and evaluate

different participatory approaches to apply these to public health

programmes and/or research. Tools with which to do this include

undertaking a stakeholder-mapping exercise and needs assessment,

including a critical and reasoned narrative to justify the approach.

\n\nWhile this course, as with the rest of the specialisation, focuses on

public health and ways of involving citizens and patients in programmes

and research, these concepts apply to other disciplines too. So, you don't

have to be a public health specialist or work in healthcare to gain insight

from this course. \n\nIf you would like to learn more about the theories and

Health for All. It provides examples of how primary health care has been

instrumental in approaching this goal in selected populations and how the

principles of primary health care can guide future policies and

actions.\n\nTwo of the most inspiring, least understood, and most often

global health, their origins and meanings, the principles upon which they

rest, and examples of how these principles have been implemented at both

small and large scale. We will also explore some ultra-low-cost

approaches to Health for All through primary health care, and the promise

Diagnosing

Health

Behaviors for

Global Health

Programs

Health behavior lies at the core of any successful public health

intervention. While we will examine the behavior of individual in depth in

this course, we also recognize by way of the Ecological Model that

individual behavior is encouraged or constrained by the behavior of

families, social groups, communities, organizations and policy makers. We

recognize that behavior change is not a simplistic process but requires an

understanding of dimensions like frequency, complexity and cultural

congruity. Such behavioral analysis is strengthened through the use of a

toolkit of theoretical models and practical frameworks. While many of such

models and frameworks exist, in this course we will review the Health

Belief Model, Social Learning Theory, Theory of Reasoned Action, the

Trans-Theoretical Model and the PRECEDE Framework. After building

your behavioral analysis toolkit with these examples, you will see that

actual behavior change program planning uses a combination of ideas and

variables from different models, theories and frameworks. Ultimately we

aim to encourage course participants to apply the idea that successful

programs are theory based as they go about involving people in improving

their health.

Community

Change in

Public Health

In bringing about behavior change in public health, we often focus on the

individual mother, student, or farmer. We should not forget the community

structure and norms constrain for encouraging individual health behaviors.

This course examines the community context of the changes needed to

promote the public’s health. We begin by examining the various definitions

of ‘community’ and the processes by which we ‘diagnose’ or seek to

understand the structure and characteristics of different types of

communities.\n\nAn appreciation of community similarities and differences

is necessary lest we fall into the trap of designing one-size-fits-all

interventions. We need to recognize that no matter that outsiders may view

a community as poor or neglected, we can find strengths and capacities for

improvement in each community. Identifying community capacities and

resources is the first step in facilitating community change. Different

practical and philosophical approaches to change and therefore, examined.

Specific to the change process is our recognition of the need for

communities to participate in the design, implementation and evaluation of

any intervention.\n\nWe examine the concept of participation in an effort to

see how different levels of involvement may affect sustainability of

community change efforts. Finally a case study of a community

participatory approach to onchocerciasis control in Africa is presented.

Community Directed Intervention has subsequently been successfully

applied to providing other essential primary health care services by and in

the community, such as insecticide treated bednets, malaria treatment,

vitamin A distribution, deworming medicines, and pneumonia and diarrhea

case management.

issues with a wide variety of tools. You'll see a scenario with a medical

device installation where issues related to IP addresses, networking, and

MAC addresses come up. \n\nWhen there are disruptions in technology,

you’ll need to use training, tip sheets, and problem-solving skills to

determine how best to handle the situation. Supporting a high reliability

organization means being familiar with the existing processes and

protocols for handling calls, creating tickets, escalating issues, and

resolving matters. We’ll introduce you to the concept of self-service tickets

and the guidance given to hospital staff on how to submit a ticket. You’ll

learn about the different priority levels for tickets as well as the tiers of IT

support. When a call comes in, there are some important resources you’ll

need to access in order to troubleshoot the problem. These can range from

standard question templates to tip sheets to complex matrices and

knowledge base articles (KBAs). Having these tools in your arsenal is

essential as a Health IT support specialist. We‘ll also cover the JIRA

process, the need for excellent documentation, and ways in which requests

for change are communicated.

Hacking

Exercise For

Health. The

surprising new

science of

fitness.

Renowned exercise physiologists Martin Gibala and Stuart Phillips of

McMaster University teach the surprising new science of cardio fitness and

strength-building—and then provide you with hacks to get fit and strong

(and healthy!) in less time than you ever thought possible. What’s the right

mix of exercise between cardio and strength? How do you know if you’re

working out hard enough? What’s better, heavy or light weights? These

questions and more are addressed through a course designed to provide

even the most inexperienced of exercisers the tools you need to design

time-efficient workouts that can be done virtually anywhere, from your own

home to a city park or even at your workplace. \n\nMarty and Stu are good

friends and colleagues who just happen to be two of the world’s most

passionate scholars in the science of fitness. They aim to entertain you

while they’re describing the relationship between exercise and health.

Marty is a pioneer in the field of interval training, the technique of varying

your workout intensity to get fit faster than anyone ever thought possible.

Stu’s studies proved that lifting lighter weights can be a highly effective

strength-building technique—plus he’s a leading expert in dietary protein

and muscle. \n\nIn Hacking Exercise for Health, you’ll follow Marty and Stu

as they teach you the basics about the way your body boosts its fitness

and strength. Next, they’ll apply that theory, providing you with a series of

do-anywhere workouts and, most importantly, teaching you what you need

to know to design your own sessions. Filled with inspirational practical tips,

fun quizzes, interactive community participation and assignments designed

to help you remember your lessons, Hacking Exercise for Health will give

you the tools and techniques to incorporate exercise into your life, no

matter how busy you are.

#talkmentalillne

ss

I am a professor and mental health researcher and educator, and I’ve been

working in the field for over 15 years. Like so many of my colleagues, however, I

was unprepared for the wave of mental health challenges that would face our

society in 2020. From COVID-19 and the devastating economic impacts of the

pandemic to racial justice protests, widespread natural disasters, our current

cultural moment presents unprecedented mental health concerns, and particularly

for marginalized communities. For this reason, I led a field-wide call to action for

mental health research and treatment that resulted in this #TalkMentalIllness

course. I had the opportunity to speak to over 30 experts from different domains in

psychology research, practice, and popular public figures and to discuss the

causes and cutting-edge treatments for many serious disorders, the stigma

surrounding mental illness in our culture, systemic inequality in mental health

treatment, and the mental health challenges of today.\n \n#talkmentalillness

curates the interviews from the Mental Health Experts series into an accessible

learning experience that will help you have conversations about mental health.

Talking about mental illness is both the content and desired outcome of this

course, as you will use what you learn from my interviews with mental health

experts to guide your own discussions about mental health challenges and

treatments with family members, friends, colleagues, and other people in your life.

The course will begin by presenting a core set of definitions for mental illness and

analyzing the stigma associated with it. We will then apply these topics to specific

psychological disorders, including anxiety and mood disorders, eating disorders,

suicide, substance use, and psychosis. We will then consider how these issues

disproportionately impact marginalized groups and communities of color. The

course will conclude by considering innovative approaches to psychological

treatments and how the pursuit and science of happiness inform mental health and

wellness.\n \nThis course is part of a broader educational mission to share the

science of mental illness with both students and the public, both locally and

globally. I have designed and created it in collaboration with the Office for

Academic Innovation and Libraries’ Media Services Team at the University of

Colorado Boulder.\n\n- June Gruber

Foundations of

Public Health

Practice: The

Public Health

Approach

The Public Health Approach course is the first instalment of the wider

Foundations of Public Health Practice specialisation from Imperial College

London's Global Master of Public Health (MPH). The scope and content of

this course has been developed from the ground up by a combined team of

academics and practitioners drawing on decades of real-world public

health experience as well as deep academic knowledge. Through short

video lectures, practitioner interviews and a wide range of interactive

activities, learners will be immersed in the world of public health

practice.\n\nDesigned for those new to the discipline, over four modules

(intended for four weeks of learning), learners will become familiar with the

scope, origins, ethics, principles and paradigms of public health practice.

But there is also important foundational content for those coming from

more experienced practitioner backgrounds. The 'Public Health Approach'

is a phrase that is used widely to describe an up-stream, preventive,

values-driven and evidence-based approach to improving population

health. By the end of this course, learners will be confident with identifying

and describing a wide range of public health challenges using the language

and reference points of the public health profession.\n\nThe subsequent

courses require the knowledge from this course, as learners will be

introduced to the public health toolkit of health needs assessment and

evaluation, before taking deeper dives into behaviour change and health

protection.

practice.\n\nDesigned for those new to the discipline, over three modules

(intended for three weeks of learning), learners will become familiar with

the scope, theory and implementation of behaviour change in the context of

public health practice. The course begins by challenging learners about

their preconceptions about healthy and unhealthy behaviour - seeking to

contextualise these ideas within the broader public health approach (the

first course of this specialisation). The course thereafter swiftly covers the

origins of risk communication and behaviour change through the lens of

health psychology and classical economics, before introducing ideas of

bounded rationality and the genesis of behavioural insights and so-called

Nudges. By the end of the course, learners will be fluent with their use of

the Behaviour Change Wheel methodology of intervention development

and the application of the COM-B framework to a range of target

behaviours and behavioural barriers.\n\nThe subsequent courses of this

specialisation will cover health protection before moving into the final

(degree learner) course which where learners will focus on developing the

core professional skillset that defines public health practitioners - whether
