READ MORE NEWS COVERAGE OF THIS EVENT.<\/a><\/p>\n

The seminar in Science Center Room 106 is free and open to the public. His topic will be “<\/span>The Journey to Address Health Disparities Among Native Americans and Indigenous Populations<\/span>.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Lowe will provide an overview of biological, psychological, social, and cultural health disparities among Native American and Indigenous populations globally impacted by colonization. He will also discuss innovative intervention research approaches that he and his research team are using to address these health disparities.<\/span><\/p>\n

He earned his bachelor\u2019s degree in nursing from EMU, his master\u2019s degree from Oral Roberts University, and his doctorate in nursing research from the University of Miami. His post-doctoral work included mental health\/substance abuse research at Florida International University. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lowe, who is Cherokee, Creek and Lenape, and an enrolled Eastern Cherokee tribal member, was the first Native American man to be inducted as a fellow in the American Academy of Nursing. He has represented the nursing profession in many national and international forums, and with national leaders in the U.S. He has provided health-care services and research consultation to underserved\/disadvantaged populations around the globe. Models that have emerged from his funded research are being used to promote the health and well-being of Native Americans and Indigenous peoples.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is the second of five spring semester <\/span>Suter Science Seminars<\/span><\/a>, which are made possible by the sponsorship of the <\/span>Daniel B. Suter Endowment in Biology<\/span><\/a> and the co-sponsorship of supporting programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next seminar is on Feb. 27, and features Windsor Westbrook Sherrill, professor of public health sciences and associate vice president for Health Research at Clemson University, on <\/span>Healing with Words: The Bibliotherapy Program at Clemson University<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
