Abigail Curtis

Abby Curtis is a junior at Harvard College studying Chemical and Physical Biology and Sociology, with a secondary in Physics. Her academic and research experiences span both lab-based science and community-centered sociology, including projects on microbial imaging, school leadership structures, and health practices within religious enclaves. Outside the classroom, she’s involved at a local homeless shelter, a birth doula for young mothers, and co-leads a science outreach initiative connecting Harvard researchers with local public schools. She is drawn to public health by the challenge of translating knowledge into action, especially in ways that build trust and serve underrepresented communities. This summer, she’s excited to learn from Meteorite about how businesses can meaningfully contribute to health equity and how effective communication strategies can support stronger public health responses.
