2003 In health as in life, sometimes it’s not a matter of knowing what to do, it’s knowing how to do it. We know that reducing the number of smokers worldwide will send cancer deaths plummeting, but how to encourage and help people to quit? We know that medical errors and systematic health care failures are pervasive, but how should we correct them? We know that Americans aren’t getting enough exercise, but what will get them moving again? As several of the stories in this month’s HABIT illustrate, answers to these questions are among the challenges that make biobehavioral research unique. We want to go beyond the behaviors that affect health to take an active role in promoting behavioral changes and fostering an environment in which healthy behaviors can thrive. Thanks again for reading, Cheers --
