Sunday, March 6, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From Health Affairs
Dear John,

Health Affairs is now accepting applicants for the Health Policy Podcast Fellowship. The program is intended for early or mid-early stage career individuals with an interest in health policy and storytelling.

Listen to the Health Affairs Pathways podcast to see what the latest cohort of the Health Policy fellows produced.

What's New At Health Affairs
In the Health Affairs Today newsletter, we published an essay from Rachel R. Hardeman of the University of Minnesota.

In it, Hardeman shares her thoughts regarding the
Health Affairs Racism and Health issue, noting the impact that antiracist research and policy has on health equity outcomes.

"The path forward requires acknowledging and learning from the scholarship of academics who have expertise in addressing the most entrenched barrier to high functioning health care, health equity" writes Hardeman.

"This
Health Affairs special issue on racism and health is part of this process. The issue is full of papers from scholars across the country leading the charge."


We will publish two unique essays related to our March issue later this month, from Seth Berkowitz and Jill Horwitz.

Never miss an essay and sign up for the daily Health Affairs Today newsletter.
