Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The Pathways to Prevention (P2P) program is a workshop series hosted by the Office of Disease Prevention (ODP) to identify research gaps in a selected scientific area, identify methodological and scientific weaknesses in that scientific area, suggest research needs, and move the field forward through an unbiased, evidence-based assessment of a complex public health issue. P2P workshops are designed for topics that have incomplete or underdeveloped research and for which there is a need for a systematic evidence review that synthesizes the published literature. After each workshop, ODP also organizes a meeting of all Federal Partners who have an interest in or activities related to the workshop topic to discuss ways that the Federal Partners might collaborate to implement workshop recommendations. |
