Culture and Health
Each human brain born on our planet today can learn any language, and imbibe any culture. The language(s) we learn, and the culture(s) we imbibe, come from the persons with whom we interact.
The foundation of Dr. Milstein’s work is the study of how beliefs are imbued in us through our cultural milieus. His bilingual (Spanish & English) research follows two paths:
1) Religion and Mental Health- Implement prevention science models to facilitate the continuity of mental health care, through collaboration between clergy and clinicians.
2) Immigration & Psychological Resilience- Identify variables that promote resiliency, in response to the developmental disruptions caused by migration.
