We use the following methods in our work:
Community-Engagement and Shared Decision Making- involves a collaborative approach that involves community members in the research process. This approach recognizes the unique strengths that the community brings to the project and often begins with a research topic of importance to the community with the aim of achieving social change. This allows community members to share power in the decision-making process of the research.
Dissemination and implementation (D&I) Science - bridges the gap between what health scientists know through their research to what healthcare clinicians implement as standard practice for quality healthcare delivery.
Learning Health System (LHS) Frameworks - work to address complex healthcare delivery challenges by continuously aggregating and analyzing data from ongoing healthcare interactions to define best practices and embed these insights into the delivery process for improved care. LHS are aspirational models as they aim to increase ongoing dialogue among researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and patients for continuous healthcare improvement and innovation.
Human- and Liberatory-Centered Design Strategies - aim to make systems usable and useful by focusing on and involving the users in all steps of the problem-solving process with an intentional focus on understanding, framing, and building more equitable and inclusive products, services, systems, and experiences.
