After a year\u2019s hiatus, USC Dornsife Magazine is back! Welcome to the first issue of your freshly minted alumni magazine \u2014 the result of an extensive redesign created in partnership with design consultant Kelly McMurray, founder and creative director of 2communiqu\u00e9. The greater variety of storytelling, professional photography, innovative new sections, and return of Alumni News are a direct response to your thoughtful feedback. You told us what you liked, what you didn\u2019t, and what you wanted to see more of \u2014 and we listened.<\/p>\n

On our cover, we\u2019re thrilled to feature the work of Aaron Tilley, a hugely talented London-based photographer who has created stunning images for The New York Times<\/em>, Vogue<\/em> and The Financial Times<\/em>. He beautifully expresses the delicate balance of elements necessary to cultivate optimum health and well-being \u2014 exercise, nutrition, sleep, health care and scientific innovation. All are explored in this issue, with a particular emphasis on the latter. Read our features to discover what our scholars are doing to improve longevity, battle dementia, overcome pain and addiction, and end health inequalities.<\/p>\n

We hope you enjoy the read and wish every one of you the very best of health!<\/p>\n
