Katelyn Mack

Katelyn Mack is currently completing her ScM at the Harvard School of Public Health in the Department of Society, Human Development, and Health. In 2008, she founded Veritas Health, a public health blog that discusses news and controversies in the field. She is committed to translating the latest research for use by policymakers, public health practitioners, and for public audiences. She believes addressing the most pressing threats to population health must involve addressing the social determinants of health, as well as the impact of food and nutrition policy on environmental influences on health decision-making (e.g. advertising, marketing, access to fruit and vegetables, etc.).

Aside from Veritas Health, Katelyn writes in her food blog, TastyKate, which is currently chronicling her local food journey.

Katelyn Mack is the Co-Editor in Chief of HSPH Connection.
