Co-Director of Joint Global Health Program Anja Krumeich Appointed Full Professor

Maastricht University’s Executive Board has appointed Anja Krumeich Full Professor of Translational Ethnographies in Global Health and Education, a chair position that will be embedded within the Department of Health, Ethics and Society.

Alongside Andrea Baumann, Associate V-P, Global Health, Krumeich has been instrumental in the success of the joint Master of Science in Global Health program offered by McMaster and Maastricht universities.

This strategic chair position means Krumeich will work across the Care and Public Health Research Institute (CAPHRI), one of Maastricht University’s largest research institutes, with a focus on healthcare innovation and public health research, and School of Health Professions Education (SHE), Maastricht’s graduate school for education, research and innovation in health professional education.

“This is a very well deserved appointment,” says Baumann, who has worked with Krumeich since the Global Health program’s inception in 2010.

Krumeich’s research interests include social differentiation, health and diversity, health and culture and health and poverty.
