Can the Obesity Crisis Be Reversed? are due out in December. Wavelengths program manager Anna Marlis Burgard is creating public-engagement campaigns for the series and each professor. And for each book, Burgard pairs each professor with a science editor/writer to navigate the brisk writing process and assist in thinking about the storytelling of research in a public way.
Fanzo will speak about her book as part of the Wavelengths: Conversations with JHU s Bloomberg Distinguished Professors virtual panel discussion during Alumni Week. Panelists will also include Wirtz, Pope, and fellow Wavelengths authors Ahima, Cooper, and Weeraratna.
The Hub caught up with Fanzo to talk about food, writing about a global crisis during a global crisis, and why mobilizing matters.
