We use innovative methods and strategies to connect research and evaluation, working primarily in three focus areas: Policy & Prevention, Dissemination & Implementation, and Systems Science.

POLICY & PREVENTION

Reducing the harmful effects of chronic disease through development, dissemination and implementation of public health prevention policies.

DISSEMINATION & IMPLEMENTATION

Sharing and implementing the results of public health science effectively in healthcare settings, communities, and states.

SYSTEMS SCIENCE

Studying the complex nature of systems, using new methodologies  such as social network analysis, agent-based modeling, and system dynamics.
