Description:
Purpose. Component A: To fund rigorous natural experiments of impact of population-targeted health policies and large scale interventions on risk and complications of diabetes, and reducing disparities in these risks and complications. Specific goals of the research program are to: 1) Test the health impact of naturally occurring health policies and interventions, including public health policies, clinical-community partnerships, and health system-wide strategies; and 2) Improve the methods and research infrastructure for natural experiments in public health. Findings could be used to inform the prioritization of policies and interventions for policy-makers, health plan directors, and community leaders. Component B: To fund a Central Coordinating Center (CCC) to provide organizational, logistic and communication support to enhance the efficiency, productivity, and impact of the Natural Experiments research centers that are funded as part of Component A.
A site to track announcements of diabetes related research opportunities.
