Your final project for the class will be to synthesize any one of the (student selected) topics (I have chosen Alzheimer’s); Focus on mental health and Alzheimer’s Health Disparities in Relation to Mental Health and Alzheimer’s ) from this semester according to the key elements we’ve addressed. I.e., your aim will be to assess how each of the 5 dimensions (epidemiological, global, social, environmental and policy) informs public health’s understanding, explanation and potential to improve population outcomes related to the chosen topic. To completely address these issues will require approximately 12 pages. These papers are to be written individually. You are strongly encouraged, but not required, to use the topic that your group presented on for this assignment.
As with all written material in this course, you should ensure proper in-text citations and complete reference list in any standard citation format (e.g., APHA, ASA, APA, MLA, etc.). The reference list is not part of the recommended paper length.
The vast majority of citations should be to peer reviewed work, but there
may be a few times where other sources are useful as well. There is no required minimum number of sources, but you should be drawing on the literature in
appropriate ways 12-15 references (but more may be needed depending on how you choose to organize things).
I have attached a couple articles and presentations that we went over this semester, for you to look at and to have an idea
