Arman Lateef

Founder & President

Arman Lateef is a freshman at Harvard College, where he is majoring in the History of Science with a focus on Medicine and Public Health. His passion for environmental health, cultivated during his high school years, continues to drive his academic and extracurricular pursuits. Arman’s keen awareness of the environment’s impact on human health, particularly through his own experiences with asthma, inspired him to take action by creating an organization dedicated to addressing environmental health issues.  Additionally, he developed a problem-based learning curriculum focused on implementing outdoor recycling programs, aiming to empower younger students to take active roles in environmental stewardship.

 

​

Arman’s prior research has included using NASA satellite data to map out particulate pollution and link it with biologic outcomes in vulnerable populations. Currently, he is working with scientists at the NIH's Climate Change Initiative, further deepening his commitment to addressing environmental challenges through scientific inquiry.

 

At Harvard, Arman’s focus on Medicine and Public Health allows him to explore the historical and social contexts of medical practices and public health initiatives, particularly as they relate to environmental factors. He is also actively involved with The Crimson Business Board , where he is expanding his understanding of business principles and their applications in creating sustainable, impactful solutions.
