A Forensic Anthropologist looks at skelatinized remains to determine age, sex, stature, and ancestry. Many Fors. Anth. are consulted for each job and don't have a permanant job. They also help out in cases of mass disasters all over the world (like 9/11, tsunami's, plane crashes, etc.). If you were a Forensic Anthropologist/ Biological Anthropologist you would travel.

There *might* be a list of such initiatives compiled by the government, an NGO or a UN agencies of these initiatives but not available on the web. How do health officials know if their initiatives aren't duplicating the work of others? Often, they don't. Various NGOs, UN agencies and government officials do try to network with one another, informally, to know who is doing what. Using the web, look for the contact information for some health initiatives, and write them directly to ask if they have such a list. You will need to say why you want such a list, how you intend to use it, etc. There is no such web site.

If you want to work in public health for a governmental agency you will need a bachelors in nursing (BSN). Most universities offer an accelerated program for students who have a bachelor's in another field. You may also want to consider becoming an advanced practice nurse which requires a Masters (MSN). The university I attend has a dual major in public health and nursing you may want to look at to give you some ideas. Here is a link to the page at the Univ. of South Florida in Tampa http://health.usf.edu/nocms/nursing/Programs_of_Study/mshealth.html Hope this helps - Michael You will need to become a registered nurse first (RN).

The big areas of growth I can see are in chronic disease research. Cancer and HIV are "glamorous" fields to be in right now. Diabetes is an emerging problem that relates to that bigger problem of obesity, which threatens to sink the entire post-industrial public health system. The burden of these diseases on our population is HUGE. They take millions of people out of our workforces, economies and POPULATIONS (i.e., they die) annually. Care for chronic illnesses is expensive, so a lot of research is being done to find cheaper, more efficient ways to handle them. Another big trend (that is kinda starting to ebb) is in disatster preparedness and bioterrorism. Gotta keep people safe from mailable anthrax and air-dispersed smallpox. In the wake of 9/11, a lot of $$$ were thrown towards all grants bioterror-related. It's a sign of the times we live in. Ideally, I'd like to see the future of public health point towards PREVENTIVE medicine. Preventing diseases will drastically reduce the burden of cost because fewer people will need things like expensive maintenance drugs, machinery to keep them alive or long-term care.

My aunt worked with a dentist in New York for 10 years providing service to inmates at a local prison. When he left for private practice- he took her with him at a much higher salary and shorter hours. She still volunteers at the school to offer proper dental care instructions for the students. Understandably, you might not be looking on the same level, but if there is a need for public health professionals that are experienced in the dental area, they should be able to help you identify and find those positions. Good Luck. Check with your local and state health offices. My aunt worked with a dentist in New York for 10 years providing service to inmates at a local prison.

We have a couple of people in our class who did not major in biology, so they are struggling a lot in some of our courses. The point of a degree in biology is to prepare you for optometry school.
