With support from The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, AcademyHealth is pleased to offer two, 90-minute audioconferences that will highlight emerging issues in the field of public health systems research (PHSR): accreditation of public health agencies and creating an evidence base for the nation’s public health system. These audioconferences are part of a larger initiative to increase the visibility of PHSR within the broader health services research community. The audioconferences will each feature presentations by, and audience interaction with, distinguished experts in the PHSR field. PowerPoint slides and other reading materials to supplement the formal presentations will be available to registered participants through a protected Web site.
