Wen announced the career move on Twitter Tuesday, just over a month after her ouster at Planned Parenthood.
“Honored to join exceptional colleagues @GWpublichealth @GW_Workforce to train future generations of public health leaders who are dedicated to achieving health equity and fighting for social justice,” Wen wrote.
