v-INSPIRE Intern, FHTS

My name is Shruti and I have graduated after my Bachelor of Dental Surgery degree and Internship from Maharashtra University of Health Sciences, Nashik. I am keen to explore the field of public health research. I have worked in a clinical and non-clinical environment, developing and learning new skills on the way.

Highest Education: BDS - Maharashtra University of Health Sciences, Nashik - M.U.H.S

Date of Joining: May 31, 2021

Goals:

In a year, I see myself equipped with the skills to carry out tasks in the public health field, hopefully, related to research. Research-driven data is essential to form strategies and interventions in healthcare that will help address emergencies, promote a better understanding of the current challenges and help in prevention. In the upcoming digital environment, I believe a public health professional needs to be competent in understanding technological tools to perform tasks. Through the FHTS organization, I hope to gain insight and learn so that I can help in future interventions under the guidance of the program mentors and interactive learning.
In the next 3 years, I hope to identify my specific interest and ability in the public health domain, explore public health research and further education opportunities, so that I can work towards contributing to the field. As a public health professional, I would like to work for an organization that explores innovative solutions through research, to deliver health awareness and facilitates for those who lack them. I would like to collaborate with bright minds in the field to learn from them about different approaches and expand my knowledge doing the best I can.
I wish to learn from my shortcomings and expand my skill set so that I can make my parents proud of my work and progress, become employable, and a diligent professional keeping in mind to uplift others through understanding, compassion, and dedication. I hope to learn and up-skill, for molding myself in the role of a novice in the dynamic arena of public health.

Testimonial:
