About the Author

Wan Naszeerah is an author, public health researcher, and social impact leader dedicated to transforming how we communicate about health in an era of digital information overload. Born stateless and raised in Southeast Asia, Wan grew up immersed in Nusantara traditions, where traditional and modern approaches to healing coexist. The Yale and UC Berkeley alumna is also an epidemiologist-turned-infodemiologist. In other words, she's passionate in two areas: how viruses shape an epidemic and how human narratives shape an infodemic. As the co-founder of Projek Infodemik, she actively collaborates with Southeast Asian communities on their experiences with the digital health infodemic in low-resource languages like Bahasa Melayu and Bahasa Indonesia. Every month, Wan shares her insights on trending health topics and practical tools to help with difficult health conversations through her email newsletter. Connect with her on www.Naszeerah.com.
