Public health
As public health policy returns to a more Victorian agenda based in the environment, we’re supporting communications around new research at the NIHR School for Public Health Research at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
We’re helping researchers to bring their work and thinking to wider audiences and, in particular, to policy makers. sphr.lshtm.ac.uk/2014/02/03/blog/
Some of the interesting subjects that we have explored lately include debates about: whether use evidence in policy health policy-making is subject to systematic bias; how engagement with minorities improves health outcomes; the role that evidence has played in introducing minimum pricing per unit of alcohol in Scotland; the public health outcomes of urban regeneration.
