Waterloo's Faculty of Health showcases research expertise in new impact report
By Eugenia Xenos Anderson Faculty of HealthWaterloo's Faculty of Health is excited to share their latest research impact report, titled Health in 3D, showcasing expertise and innovation across the Faculty. They explore how health and quality of life are enhanced along three dimensions – physical, mental and social – and advanced by three academic units – Kinesiology and Health Sciences, Recreation and Leisure Studies and Public Health Sciences.
With concentrations in health technology, aging, mental health, brain and body, environment, and communities, researchers and other members of the Faculty are tackling complex and pressing health challenges and creating a healthier future for individuals, communities and populations.
“We examine health from a broad perspective, including illness prevention,” says Dean of Health Lili Liu. “As the World Health Organization points out in its constitution, health is not merely the absence of disease and infirmity, but a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being.”
