Also, we have a project on understanding people’s trust in science communication, because part of the problem with health literacy is confidence in the communication,” Nathaniel explained.

“These studies do not just stop on the desk or, we use our translational lab to also translate research findings into actionable recommendations for implementation and policy decisions. I am glad that I continue to work in these spheres and I hope to continue doing the same for a very long time,” he added.
