Find out how research is impacting human health in the College of Health and Human Sciences research podcast, “Health and Human Science Matters,” a collection of lively, engaging conversations with members of the college community.

The hosts of the podcast are Avery Martin, digital media strategist and podcast producer, and Matt Hickey, associate dean for research and graduate studies, in CSU’s College of Health and Human Sciences.

While the main goal of the podcast is to highlight the amazing research taking place in the College, the conversations in the podcast revolve around the exploration of who someone is, exploring how they got interested in their research subject, what brought them to CSU, and what they love about working at a land-grant institution.

You can find “Health and Human Science Matters” on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts.
