The Bronx is Building
“As the Bronx is known for high numbers in obesity, diabetes, and asthma, many elected officials and residents are looking for ways to improve the health of the borough. Among those people is Alex Levine, a third-year medical student at Albert Einstein. Levine launched a podcast, Healthy Bronx last September with a few classmates, centered on preventive medicine and transportation. So far there have been 13 episodes. They also created Bronx One Policy Group, which is a policy writing and advocacy organization.” —Jason Cohen, Bronx Times.
