Matthias F. Schneider’s Post

Imagine a world where everyone, regardless of their background or status, can access reliable health information. In the past years, misinformation has loomed large, threatening public health and shaping perceptions of science and government. Have you ever wondered how we can fight back against this tide of misinformation, especially when it comes to matters as important as health? Through his Robert Wood Johnson Foundation-funded project, David Scales, an assistant professor of medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine and Chief Medical Officer at Critica, Inc is exploring and developing a new protective knowledge model for addressing misinformation. Check out his interview published in our "What’s Next Health: 5 Questions For…" series to learn more about his project aimed at creating a safe information environment for health and why it is important to invest in public health infrastructure to better support communities in understanding health information. https://lnkd.in/eNQNadbD #Misinformation #HealthEquity #PublicHealth

People who have lived and living experience with pain bring important perspectives to all aspects of research. Their contributions can improve the scientific value, public health impact, and community acceptance of scientific studies. The NIH HEAL Initiative® aims to support community-engaged research by providing practical guidance and actionable insights to help incorporate lived and living experiences effectively into every stage of research.
