About Christian Rebolledo
Hello! My name is Christian Rebolledo, a rising sophomore in Columbia College at Columbia University studying Political Science and Medical Humanities with a Special Concentration in Public Health. I am passionate about intersecting the worlds of public health with political advocacy: people are social, and thus political. I am passionate about community building, civic engagement, and building systems for the next generation of leaders across disciplines.
For my first summer as a Laidlaw scholar in the 2026 cohort, I will be characterizing postmortem data from ICE detention centers to identify trends across factors relatd to social determinants of health. I look forward to uncovering the quantitative facets of qualitative reporting currently populating the literature on carceral justice and public health.

Hey Izzy! I definitely feel you on the challenges of creating a timeline that contextualizes an attainable and feasible scope for your project. I'm glad you were able to get some help and advice from other scholars and mentors. How did you end up deciding what objectives deserved detailed perspectives and which ones you felt comfortable keeping "surface-level?" I'm running into a similar situation and would love to hear about that process. Good luck with the rest of your project, I'm so excited to learn more about it!
This research sounds incredibly interesting and I cannot wait to see all that you discover!
