HABIT

June 24, 2003

Vol. 6 No. 6


Dear Colleagues,

This month’s HABIT illustrates some of the many forces at play in translating research into practice. From political tinkering in research policy, the creation of health-undermining environments in school, and the commercial considerations behind using advanced technology in the clinical setting — it’s a complex and winding path from the best available scientific evidence to better health.

As always, HABIT welcomes your comments on these and other issues, so drop us a line and let us know what you’re thinking about this summer.

Cheers --


Jessie Gruman, Ph.D.
President and Executive Director
Center for the Advancement of Health
