What is public health and why should you apply for a public health program?
Public health—it maybe a topic that you’ve heard a lot about lately. But what exactly is it?
Public health is the science of protecting the safety and improving the health of communities by
promoting healthy lifestyles;
researching and understanding disease and injury prevention;
implementing educational programs;
recommending policies;
administering services;
promote health equity, quality, and accessibility; and
detecting, preventing, and responding to infectious diseases.

Sound familiar?
While doctors and nurses are primarily focused on treating individuals after they become ill, public health practitioners are concerned with protecting the health of entire populations. These populations could be as small as one neighborhood or city, or as substantial as an entire country.

Meet Anthony Santella, DrPH, MPH, MCHES
By Sara Colabella ’08, MA’11
Senior Manager, Integrated Marketing
Anthony Santella, DrPH, MPH, MCHES, recently joined Fairfield University as professor of Public Health, and Master of Public Health program director at the Marion Peckham Egan School of Nursing & Health Studies. Two months into his new role, he shared about his background in public health, the value of pursuing a career in the field, and his research on improving the health and wellbeing of vulnerable communities.
Tumblr media
1.      Prior to joining Fairfield, you taught public health for almost 15 years. What drew you to the field?
During my last semester at UCONN as a Biomedical Sciences major, I took elective classes in Community Health and Health Administration. Within a few weeks of being a student in these classes I had my "light bulb" moment and realized what public health is, how it works, why it's so important in keeping society healthy and productive and never looked back. I'm drawn to a field that combines my love of the natural and social sciences, health and medicine, social justice, and service.  I wish more people understood public health and its contributions, though.  In fact, over the last 200 years life expectancy in the U.S. has more than doubled. While most people think this is due to advances in medicine and technology, the largest gains are due to public health achievements such as vaccinations, motor vehicle safety, safer workplaces, control of infectious diseases, safer and healthier food and water, and much more! If you want to learn more about public health, come chat with me or visit This is Public Health!
2.       Please share a little about your background and work prior to joining Fairfield.
I grew up in Norwalk and attended UCONN for my Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences. After college I worked in pharmaceutical marketing and advertising for a year in New York City. I then attended Emory University in Atlanta where I earned a MPH in Health Policy and Management and then moved to New Orleans to attend Tulane University where I earned a Doctor of Public Health degree in Health Systems Management. While in graduate school I worked in a vaccine research clinic recruiting persons to HIV vaccine clinical trials. I then moved back to New York City to work for the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (the largest local health department in the world!) where I served as Director of HIV Policy, Planning, and Implementation and then Senior Program Planning Consultant.  In 2009, I left public health practice for academia and have taught public health and health sciences at Long Island University, the University of Sydney (Australia), Hofstra University, and the University of New Haven. While I have been a faculty member for 15 years, I continue to be active in public health practice through my research and evaluation work and by holding leadership positions at the national (American Public Health Association), state (Connecticut HIV Planning Consortium and Connecticut Viral Hepatitis Elimination Technical Advisory Committee), and local (Fairfield/New Haven Counties HIV Planning Council) levels.
3.       Can you tell me about your research on improving the health and wellbeing of vulnerable communities?
My research for the past 20 years has focused on HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, sexually transmitted infections, and emerging viruses like COVID-19 and monkeypox.  My scholarship has focused on members of the LGBTQ+ community, people living with and at risk for HIV and other STIs, people experiencing homelessness, incarcerated persons, and youth and young adults (including college students). I'm particularly interested in expanding prevention tools among these vulnerable and often historically forgotten populations. I've spent many years working on expanding HIV testing and other chairside screenings to the dental setting. While most people don't think of the dental setting as a venue to seek screenings, my research shows both dental providers (dentists and dental hygienists) and dental patients are generally supportive of adding these services and there is a segment of the population that regularly seek a dental provider but have no primary care provider. I've been fortunate to conduct this work around the world including in Australia, China, Vietnam, India, the UK, and of course, here in the US. Another part of my research agenda seeks to expand pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP); the HIV prevention pill.  There are many Americans, including providers, who are eligible for these FDA approved medications, however, don't have access or even know it exists.  In fact,over a million people in the U.S. could benefit from PrEP , but fewer than 25% of them are taking it. More recently, I've worked on a number of evaluation projects seeking to improve the healthcare experience of people experiencing homelessness through a series of "high risk, high reward" programs in NYC.
4.       Why should people pursue a career in public health? What sets Fairfield’s program apart?
Public health is the art and science of keeping communities healthy and free of disease, injury, disability, and death and ensuring everyone has a fair and just opportunity to achieve their full health potential. We use theories, models, and practices from many disciplines including the basic sciences, math/statistics, political science, psychology, sociology, and much more to inform public health practice. The Fairfield MPH program is a fully online 45-credit program designed to accommodate the needs of working health and human service professionals. The courses are interdisciplinary so while some classes will only include MPH students, other courses will include graduate nursing, nutrition, and healthcare administration students. This is important given health professionals work in multidisciplinary teams. Our curriculum is guided by the competencies of the Council on Education in Public Health where we will seek accreditation. Additionally, co-curricular opportunities will be made available to students including volunteer opportunities with local health departments, scholarships to attend public health conferences and virtual professional development seminars.
5.       What excites you the most about becoming the program director of the Master of Public Health program at Fairfield’s Egan School? What do you most look forward to in your first year?
I love public health and am excited to join the Egan faculty under the leadership of Dean Kazer and Associate Dean Shea.  I also look forward to working with my colleagues across campus, including my colleagues in our BS in Public Health program, to integrate public health into the Fairfield University community and surrounding neighborhoods. I'm eager to welcome our new MPH students and make sure they have a fulfilling and productive graduate school experience.  In my first year, I hope to build public health practice partnerships, monitor our curriculum to ensure competencies are being taught and assessed according to best practices, partner with Graduate Admissions and Marketing on recruiting talented students, develop a close working relationship and co-learning environment with our inaugural cohort of students, passionately teach public health classes, contribute to the University's mission through service and administration, and continue to be a leader in public health at the local, state, and national levels.

T-minus two (2) hours until I defend my master's thesis.
Then I will FINALLY be a Master of Public Health and Epidemiology, and hopefully be able to, you know, progress with my life.
Get the HPV vaccine, people. Or, as I think most of the people who will see this are well outside the target age, encourage your teenage/preteen siblings/children/friends/idk to get the HPV vaccine!

i have spent like the last 10 years, possibly 20, studying comedy closely, learning “how to be funny,” identifying the linguistics of what makes a joke work, analyzing laughter in a behavioral/psychological sense, philosophizing about humor, and yet the most effortlessly funny person i know is my coworker at a (non-arts-related) nonprofit who has a degree in economics and works in the accounting department. i don’t know if she’s even aware of how funny she is. i love her so much. i want to study her.
