都市デザインから医療へのアクセシビリティへ：GISと歩んだ私の道のり
YPNコミュニティの皆さん、こんにちは！私の名前はMahdis Hamisiです。テキサス大学アーリントン校で都市計画・公共政策の博士課程に在籍しています。交通と健康、特に公共交通が人々の医療機関へのアクセス機会にどのような影響を与えるかを研究しています。 私の学問の道のりは、建築と都市デザインから始まりました。これらの分野を通じて、人々と、日々利用する場所との関係を理解できるようになりました。博士課程に進むにつれて、関心は個々の場所のデザインから、それらの場所同士のつながりへと広がりました。地域内に医療施設があっても、車を持たない人にとって、そこへのアクセスはどれほど容易なのでしょうか。…

Networking Without Making It Awkward
Okay so real talk - I didn't really dread the word "networking." I just had a completely wrong understanding of what it meant. Seriously, when I joined this industry, I quite literally set up a reminder to text all the employees about job opportunities. Look. That was me. Clueless, eager, and absolutely unhinged about it.…
