Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses data to explore why interventions improve health and for whom they work.
AboutAbout the lab
Showing with evidence what works, and for whom.
The Health Promotion and Behavior Lab, drawing on a behavioral science perspective, applies analytical methods such as causal inference and machine learning to randomized controlled trials and observational data, and generates evidence that is useful for health promotion.
The lab welcomes people, regardless of specialty or background, who want to explore the questions "Why does a given intervention or policy improve health? For whom is it effective?"
Building on causal inference and epidemiological methodology, the lab provides consistent guidance from study planning through publication in international journals.
