Population Health Improvement Pragmatic Studies
This research program seeks to identify, measure, and address determinants of poor health and to establish the effectiveness and sustainability of pragmatic programs to improve and sustain community and population health and health equity. Though multiple externally funded projects, academic researchers with expertise in a broad range of methodologies, including clinical epidemiology, geospatial science, biomedical informatics, implementation science, social science, health policy, and precision medicine approaches work in concert to address high priority health needs, established through partnerships with the community. Community engagement undergirds the research program, which features
Outcomes that Matter
SYNERGY Population Health Improvement Seminar Series
Brought to you by the Duke Center for Community and Population Health Improvement and the Duke Center for Population Health Sciences - this series showcases the work we are doing to reduce health disparities and improve health equity.
Research Works in Progress
This seminar will be held twice monthly and encourages researchers to share their ongoing studies, ideas, and grant proposals to stimulate improved collaboration, enhance our success, and create community around our research.
- A standing network of established community leaders representing local non-profit organizations, local health sector leaders (including City and County Public Health agencies), local health systems, patients, and their families,
- A standing community advisory board,
- A program of ongoing colloquia to bring researchers together with community members to collaboratively engage in research, and
- Duke-sponsored education and match-making programs to enhance researcher readiness to engaged with community members and to enhance community readiness for research.
Outcomes that Matter
- PCORI Eugene Washington Engagement Award
- Convening patients, care partners, providers, researchers, and community members to establish a 5-year roadmap for research with outcomes that matter to the community

Program for Health Equity Research and Population Studies:
Studies to identify and address the determinants of health inequities, including the deployment and study of community informed interventions. |
Program for Population Health Improvement Analytics:
Use of health system generated data to inform health needs, identify at risk populations, and measure intervention effectiveness. |
Program for Implementation Science and Policy Studies: Community engaged research models that leverage community strengths to implement evidence based practices into pragmatic settings to achieve sustainable health improvements.
|
Program for Community Research Partnerships: Supported in part by CTSA, efforts joined into by community, academic, and health system stakeholders to set an academic research agenda that addresses the needs of the patients, families, and community members at large.
