Shaping Global Health by Transforming Evidence into Policy

Dr Gavin Yamey—a medical doctor, journalist, editor, and global health researcher—will begin by discussing evidence-based strategies to reach health policymakers. He’ll then share how he has used such strategies in shaping a multidisciplinary evidence-to-policy laboratory at Duke University that is networked with universities and think tanks worldwide. Finally, he’ll reflect on some of the key opportunities and barriers to influencing decision-makers in global health.
