Migrant health and healthcare (Abir Mohamad Ismail & Qiuyu Choo Jiang)

The 4th season of the Interacting Minds Podcast introduces 3 research projects chosen for the 2024 IMC Postdoc Training Programme. The participants present what they worked on, the outcome of the projects, and possible benefits for the future. 

In this episode we take a closer look at migrant health and healthcare both in China and Denmark. Amongst other questions, we explore if the public health care systems support and help migrants and if there is any room for development.
