Revolutionizing Healthcare – Pragmatic Trials and Implementation Science: A Collaborative Approach to Health System Improvement Hayden Bosworth, PhD |
Time: 12:00 - 1:00 pm
Location: Vanderbilt Engineering and Science Building, Room 044/048
Dr. Bosworth is a health services researcher. His research interests comprise three overarching areas of research: 1) clinical research that provides knowledge for improving patients’ treatment adherence and self-management in chronic care; 2) translation research to improve access to quality care; and 3) eliminate health care disparities. Dr. Bosworth has expertise developing interventions to improve health behaviors related to hypertension, coronary artery disease, and depression, and has been developing and implementing tailored patient interventions to reduce the burden of other chronic diseases.
