In this episode, Lauren talks with second year MHA students Hayden Malven and Gracie Petersen about their summer internships and the lessons they carried forward from those experiences. Hayden spent her summer working in finance and service line strategy at University of Iowa Health Care, while Gracie completed an operations internship at UNC Children's in North Carolina. They share how they chose their placements, what surprised them once they arrived, and how stepping into real health systems helped them connect classroom theory with day to day leadership challenges. The conversation covers everything from navigating uncertainty on large projects to discovering leadership styles they admire and hope to emulate. Hayden reflects on gaining confidence through early trust from her preceptor and finding meaning in work she never expected to enjoy. Gracie describes the value of being welcomed into a leadership culture that views interns as contributors and how intentional mentorship shaped her understanding of effective operations. Together, they offer thoughtful advice to first year students preparing for their own searches and a grounded look at how internships help future healthcare leaders grow.

In recognition of National Injury Prevention Day on November 18, this episode takes a closer look at pediatric agricultural injuries and what prevention looks like in real farm communities. Host Lauren sits down with Dr. Jenna Gibbs from the University of Iowa Stead Family Children's Hospital and Libby Richie from the Great Plains Center for Agricultural Health to discuss the risks children face on farms, how those risks develop, and the practical steps families can take to keep kids safe. Dr. Gibbs and Libby share years of experience in injury prevention, farm safety, and youth agricultural work guidelines. Together they break down why falls, lawnmower incidents, and ATV crashes remain leading causes of severe injury for kids, why certain tasks are not safe until age ten or older, and how parents can balance tradition with evidence based safety practices.

Measles is one of the most contagious viruses in the world, but why? In this episode of Plugged In to Public Health, host Maxwell Hanson talks with Dr. Patrick Sinn, a pediatric pulmonologist and researcher at the University of Iowa, whose work has reshaped how scientists understand measles transmission. Dr. Sinn's lab made a surprising discovery that challenged decades of assumptions about how the virus infects airway cells, revealing new insights into why measles spreads so efficiently. Together, they explore what makes measles different from other respiratory viruses, how vaccine hesitancy has fueled recent outbreaks, and why effective communication remains a cornerstone of public health. Dr. Sinn also shares how moments of unexpected results in research can lead to major scientific breakthroughs.

When a mumps outbreak hits a small progressive school in Berkeley, California, parents who once agreed on everything find themselves suddenly divided. Eureka Day, a play by Jonathan Spector, uses humor and heart to explore the messy intersection of personal choice, public health, and community trust. In this episode of Plugged into Public Health, we talk with Kathleen Johnson, Director of Outreach and Education at Riverside Theatre and the director of Eureka Day in Iowa City.

From PTA politics to social media comment sections, this conversation dives into how we navigate disagreement, how empathy shapes public dialogue, and what it means to keep communities healthy and connected.

Pregnancy pain is common, often dismissed, and rarely easy to manage. At the same time, recent headlines have stirred anxiety by suggesting that acetaminophen (Tylenol) use in pregnancy may be linked to autism. These claims spread quickly online, leaving many parents-to-be with more questions than answers. In this episode of Plugged into Public Health, host Lauren Lavin talks with Dr. Julie Vignato, assistant professor at the University of Iowa College of Nursing and a leading researcher on pain in pregnancy. Dr. Vignato brings both professional expertise and personal insight as a mother, helping us unpack what the science actually says, where misinformation creeps in, and how healthcare providers and public health communicators can share clearer messages. Topics discussed include: -Why pregnancy pain is too often under-treated and misunderstood -What the evidence shows about acetaminophen and NSAIDs during pregnancy -How a large Swedish “sibling study” helps rule out Tylenol as a cause of autism -The role of maternal guilt, stigma, and communication in shaping these conversations -Practical advice for both pregnant people and healthcare providers navigating pain management -How to identify trustworthy evidence and avoid misinformation online Resources mentioned in this episode: -Swedish sibling study on acetaminophen and autism: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2817406 -Cochrane Library – Plain language reviews: https://www.cochrane.org/evidence -Dr. Vignato's study on OTC pain relievers during pregnancy: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2817406 A transcript of this episode will be available here soon.

In this two-part interview, Dr. Peter Thorne, University of Iowa Distinguished Chair and Professor of Occupational and Environmental Health and a leading expert in toxicology, provides an in-depth overview of how the federal government regulates chemicals in food, water, and air. Key points: • The EPA and FDA are science-based organizations that interpret laws passed by Congress and apply the best available science to make regulatory decisions aimed at protecting human health and the environment. • The EPA's Science Advisory Board provides independent, non-partisan oversight to ensure the agency's decisions are grounded in scientific evidence. • Chemical regulations are dynamic, with compounds like Red Dye No. 3 and inorganic arsenic being re-evaluated as new scientific data emerges. • The precautionary principle guides regulators to err on the side of safety when the evidence suggests a chemical may pose health risks, even in the absence of definitive human studies. • Replacing problematic chemicals with safer alternatives can facilitate regulatory action, though the availability of substitutes should not be the primary driver of these decisions. • Persistent organic pollutants like PCBs and PFAS pose complex public health challenges due to their ubiquity and long-lasting environmental presence, underscoring the need for continued research and policy responses.

But now President Donald Trump is calling for these two departments, among others, to be dismantled.

This episode discusses physical activity and its role in preventing chronic disease, featuring an interview with Dr. Lucas Carr, an associate professor of Health and Human Physiology at the University of Iowa and leading researcher in lifestyle interventions and health behavior change. Key points include: Dr. Carr's research focuses on the behavior science behind habit formation and helping people find enjoyable, sustainable ways to be physically active as a means of prevention. His team has implemented a system to treat physical activity as a "vital sign" in healthcare settings, screening patients and connecting inactive individuals with free health coaching resources. Data from over 60,000 patients shows those who are physically active (150 minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous activity) have significantly lower risks of 19 different chronic health conditions. Practical advice is to find physical activities you genuinely enjoy, as you're more likely to stick to something you find pleasant and rewarding.
