AcademyHealth Call for Nominations

Are you interested in providing leadership to the field of Public Health Systems and Services Research? Is AcademyHealth on your conference circuit?

If so, please consider nominating yourself to AcademyHealth’s PHSR Interest Group advisory committee! Your volunteer work will place you alongside your peers in the field to plan and develop engagement activities for the PHSR interest group. This is a perfect way to expand your personal network on a national platform and influence the content shared with your peers nationwide. Stand out by getting involved!

As illustrated in the Journal of Public Health Management and Practice’s recent supplement on COVID-19, health departments are facing numerous challenges but there are also opportunities for improvement as we rebuild our public health system in the wake of the pandemic. By participating in AcademyHealth’s PHSR Interest Group advisory committee, you can bring your ideas on how to transform our public health system to the mainstream health services research community and help reinvigorate the field of PHSR. Researchers and practitioners at all career stages are encouraged to apply.
