Initially, she says, the women in the study hesitated to engage. Through building their trust, the women felt safe to share their experiences, challenges and perceptions about cervical cancer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis reminded me that a trust-building and community centered approach (to research) is vital for success,\u201d Bhetwal said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ron-schmaltz-mph-student\">Ron Schmaltz, MPH Student<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"913\" height=\"885\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/spph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/99\/2025\/04\/Schmaltz.jpg\" alt=\"Ron Schmaltz meets with a community member for his research project. \" class=\"wp-image-29491\" style=\"width:331px;height:auto\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ron Schmaltz, MPH Student<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Master of Public Health student Ron Schmaltz presented his research on <strong>The Gray Area in Healthcare Technology Usage<\/strong>. Schmaltz\u2019 research focused on healthcare technology use among senior citizens.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schmaltz says, although rewarding, conducting his research was a secondary benefit. The most rewarding aspect of his research was connecting with seniors and learning how much they valued being heard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTheir eagerness to participate and share their experiences with me reminded me that even though the field of public health tries to address issues from a population perspective, it always comes back to the individual,\u201d Schmaltz said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-archer-ward-mph-student\">Archer Ward, MPH Student<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/spph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/99\/2025\/04\/ArcherWard-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Archer Ward\" class=\"wp-image-29492\" style=\"width:223px;height:auto\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Archer Ward, MPH Student<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Archer Ward, a Master of Public Health student in his final year of the program, presented research on <strong>Adolescent Developmental Domains: Examining Risk and Protective Factors in Loneliness.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAdolescent mental health is such a current topic due to the impacts it\u2019s having on young people today,\u201d Ward said. \u201cI did not have any previous experience in this space before and was sold on the project when I learned how devastating the experience of loneliness can be.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-meredith-spivak-ph-d-student\">Meredith Spivak, Ph.D. Student<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"771\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/spph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/99\/2025\/04\/MeredithSpivak-1152x1530-1-771x1024.png\" alt=\"Meredith Spivak\" class=\"wp-image-29490\" style=\"width:265px;height:auto\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Meredith Spivak, Ph.D. Student<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spivak, a Public and Population Health Leadership Ph.D. student, presented her research on the <strong>Sex Differences In Acute Occupational Pesticide Poisonings Among Farmworkers in the Pacific Northwest.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Spivak moved to Idaho, she noticed how prominent agricultural employment is for both men and women in the state. Spivak said she saw the immediate connection between her interests in women\u2019s health and this important aspect of the state\u2019s economy.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result of that connection is research that focuses on occupational risks for women farmworkers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think everyone deserves for their workplace to be safe. But at the end of the day, we still have not delved deep enough into this issue and we still don\u2019t have a clear picture on what is happening with women farmworkers,\u201d Spivak said. \u201cI hope this research can be used to take the next steps toward creating a workplace where women, and really all farmworkers, are protected from pesticide poisonings.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dr-ellen-schafer\">Dr. Ellen Schafer<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/spph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/99\/2025\/04\/Ellen-Schafer-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Ellen Schafer\" class=\"wp-image-29493\" style=\"width:282px;height:auto\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dr. Ellen Schafer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SPPH Associate Professor and Master of Public Health Program Director Ellen Schafer received the Graduate College Excellence in Graduate Faculty Mentoring award.

Working with students entering or moving up in the public health workforce. Watching students learn, grow, gain confidence, try new things and overcome personal and academic challenges, she says, is what fulfills her daily work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI had fantastic mentors that shared their wisdom and taught me patience and empathy. I hope I am able to do the same for our students,\u201d Schafer said. \u201cI also hope the students I mentor pay it forward and do the same for those who come to graduate school or into the workforce after them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three Master of Public Health students (Babita Bhetwal, Ron Schmaltz, Archer Ward), one Public and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2296,"featured_media":29491,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2708,2709,1774],"tags":[5109,5110,5108],"class_list":["post-29488","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-faculty","category-graduate-program","category-public-and-population-health","tag-awards","tag-graduate-student","tag-research"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.2 (Yoast SEO v28.2) -
