The Community and Population Health Initiative is Georgia Tech’s nexus for research and innovation at the intersection of health, technology, environment, and society. Our initiative brings together researchers, practitioners, and communities to reimagine health systems, investigate environmental quality, harness data for better decisions, and create healthier, more resilient communities.
By collaborating with Georgia Tech’s Interdisciplinary Research Institutes (IRIs) and programs from six Colleges, we amplify impact — linking breakthroughs in sustainability, people-centered and urban design, bioengineering, and data science, with systems thinking to transform health and wellbeing locally and across the globe.
About the event
The April 29th event marks the next milestone in our collaborative journey and builds momentum from our convening last fall. This professionally facilitated event will kickstart interdisciplinary research ideas and pave a path for competitive formal funding submissions. CAPHI will provide research support and funding for follow-up professional grant writing services to teams formed during our Spring event.
