I am currently studying this concept in my Population Health module .Nice video. The sound is kinda low though.

[@gregmartin]

Thanks for the feedback Clay - will try to fix the sound problem

[@kristinvanessa5164]

you can simply speedup the video thru settings and playback speed

[@PocketGlobalHealth]

Thanks for the great video on an important topic Greg! Your discussion makes me think about the concept of epigenetics. Poverty, stress, and environmental exposures can threaten an individual's present day well being and limit their future potential.

[@gregmartin]

Thanks for the comment. Yes, poverty, stress and environmental exposure have long term implications.

[@mmccull9764]

Your video does a great job at explaining a complex area of public health which is often disregarded by policy setters in country settings. Some of that disregard is due a lack sense of being able to “make a difference” to the elements in your framework, and because the health sector has difficulty functioning in a multi sector approach. E.g. air pollution is directly affecting 90% of the world population and directly affecting the health of people yet the multi sector issues lead to public policy response inertia even in the most advanced country settings. Keep up the good work.

[@gregmartin]

Thanks for the feedback and very insightful comment Michael. You are absolutely right. The health sector exists in a complex political landscape and is often underprioritized. Not an easy problem to fix. Thanks for the comment.

I am an advocate of 'health as a right' and therefore of a public and universal health system. In this context, understanding the social determinants of health is fundamental. With this we can see that public health is more than an outpatient clinic and a medical clinic, but it requires multiprofessional work, social participation, strategic planning and political engagement (to negotiate with stakeholders). Excellent this video, thanks for the class, professor.

[@Coxugga]

Captions on youtube were a bit messed up but very good explanation!

[@gregmartin]

Thank you for the feedback.

[@patriciaschwerdtle5789]

A brilliant video once again! I recommend your channel to my 500+ Nursing/Midwifery students every year (yet it's a little awkward with the other Uni advertisements...) because they are SO very clear and so well aligned to our learning objectives in the Global Health unit - which by the way are pretty much the same for Medicine, OT, PT, Paramedics, Health Sciences in Australia. Great connection of 'social' and 'health' concepts, which is a tough concept for some 'clinically minded' students to understand, so breaking it down from other WHO frameworks is appreciated. Nice links to inequity/equity and social justice, which is invariably linked to learning about SDH and also vulnerable populations. I appreciate the 'Greg gags' too as ever - Or are they Dad jokes? or Epidemiologist jokes? Or worst case scenario; Dad who is an Epidemiologist jokes? Thanks Greg! Love your work.

[@gregmartin]

haha - thanks for the comment Trish. Hope all is well in Australia. Thanks for sharing my videos with the nursing / midwifery students (please tell them that I said hello and they should feel free to send any suggestions re videos that they would like to see). Happy day :)

[@judithmackay4433]

Great series of videos on public health. Many congratulations, Dr Judith Mackay

[@gregmartin]

Thanks for the feedback Judith! Much appreciated! :)😀

[@alishaoro808]

I really enjoyed this video. Would you be able to reference a validated social determinant of health survey that can be used in a health care setting like a physician's office? I have looked PREPARE; however, it does not offer a scoring system.

[@abdulsalammohamud1953]

Thanks for brief explanation what Socila determinant of health and the way they are interacting each others. just want to ask you out of the topic, as I'm public health professional, which program I supposed to use when it comes Data analysis, which is the best and easy to use, R language, or Power BI, or Python, please share your advice. Thanks

If you are constantly looking outside yourself you will miss the boat entirely.

[@SaabjesPower]

Very intresting but if you want to take notes a few key words or taking a bit slower would help.

[@djowinschippers3204]

Thanks for the video Dr. Martin, as a Health Sciences student (in the Netherlands), your videos are quite inspirational 😁

[@gregmartin]

I'd delighted that you like the videos!! Please do send any suggested topics that you'd like me to cover. Thanks for the feedback. :)

[@djowinschippers3204]

@@gregmartin Great, thanks for your response! Well, topics such as statistical research in healthcare or the uprise of technology in healthcare and the consequences for managing such changes all seem interesting to me. But I think any topic you cover in the future will be good 😇

[@yulinliu850]

Thanks for making this great video!

[@gregmartin]

You are most welcome Yulin. :)

[@dr.gyanaranjanpadhy3365]

[@gregmartin]

Thanks for the feedback Gyanaranjan. I look forward to learning more about your work.

Am I the only one that hears bass drops in the video? haha

[@baterenvictory2421]

Nice one. it was impacting. Thanks

[@okiweluanthony8052]

I love yout videos Greg Adams, they're so simple to understand.

[@gregmartin]

Thanks!! Cheers

[@Rahul08cv44]

I just finished my PhD in geotechnical engineering. Can I go in sector of health sciences? If yes then u suggest the company. Greetings from India.

[@gregmartin]

Your skills will be useful in the public health space. You might need to get some experience / education in health though. There are many MOOCs on the subject.

[@mskeri6901]

You’ve made my understanding of social determinants a lot easier. Thank you.

[@gregmartin]

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated

Amaziiing video as usual!

[@gregmartin]

You are too kind. Thanks for the comment. Happy day Yolanda.

[@ashleshavaidya8149]

Very well explained, Dr. Martin. Your illustration (social and health) actually summarises it all in one picture and that makes it easy to understand and remember.

[@gregmartin]

Glad you liked it Ashlesha (thanks for the feedback). :)

[@bbeathard]

Your point of view seems to subscribe to the premiss of destiny by birth. While this may hold some truth in third-world countries, anyone in a well developed society has the ability to better their situation. It is about choices.
