Principled Innovation is at the core of my science, which is focused on how to promote engagement with positive health behavior change interventions. Incorporating methods that engage both individuals and communities in the co-creation of health solutions aims to empower their resilience, leading to communities that are stronger and healthier. My ongoing collaborations with community partners have expanded my expertise in this important area of community engagement.
The focus of our team’s project on the co-creation of health solutions, including those that are digitally delivered, advances technology in a manner that has the potential to create a more equitable future for all. Our overarching vision is to equip and inspire the next generation of researchers to thoughtfully include communities in every step of the research process to build capacity, trust, and sustained community-academic partnerships. Being part of the Principled Innovation community supports our team in achieving this vision.
