Precision public health (PPH) approaches use big data to inform tailored, population-level interventions. The field has roots in genomics, but it has expanded to encompass data-informed public health programs across various types of data or applications. The Precision Public Health Network hosted a 2023 conference focused on implementation science-the study of how to integrate PPH programs into practice. Some implementation needs that emerged across speakers included establishing robust evidence of clinical utility and feasibility, disseminating clinical best practices through guidelines and tools for providers, sharing tools or information to reduce duplicated efforts across settings, and considering context-specific factors. Considering feasibility, setting-specific factors, and meaningful engagement with relevant user groups throughout the research and implementation process are critical to the successful and sustainable implementation of PPH programs. The Network also hosted an interactive workshop to generate ideas and ongoing collaboration on essential outcomes or data measures for PPH programs, and strategies to center health equity in PPH. This conference and workshop are part of the ongoing work of the PPHN to convene experts across disciplines and settings, share knowledge, and galvanize the field of PPH.
精准公共卫生(PPH)方法利用大数据为量身定制的人群层面干预措施提供信息。该领域起源于基因组学,但已扩展到涵盖各类数据或应用中基于数据的公共卫生项目。精准公共卫生网络主办了一场2023年会议,重点关注实施科学——即研究如何将PPH项目整合到实践中。演讲者们提出的一些实施需求包括建立临床效用和可行性的有力证据、通过为提供者提供的指南和工具传播临床最佳实践、分享工具或信息以减少不同环境下的重复工作,以及考虑特定背景因素。在整个研究和实施过程中考虑可行性、特定环境因素以及与相关用户群体进行有意义的互动,对于PPH项目的成功和可持续实施至关重要。该网络还举办了一次互动研讨会,以就PPH项目的关键成果或数据指标以及将健康公平置于PPH核心地位的策略提出想法并开展持续合作。本次会议和研讨会是PPHN正在进行的工作的一部分,旨在召集跨学科和不同环境的专家、分享知识并推动PPH领域的发展。
