The mission of the Center for Advancing Population Sciences (CAPS) is to develop, test, and implement innovative strategies for transforming healthcare that optimizes quality, value, and cost. As an interdisciplinary group of health services researchers collaborating in a diverse array of subject areas, CAPS conducts research on health care services and related health outcomes, facilitates a supportive environment for MCW investigators developing externally funded research programs, determines the need for and recruits new faculty in targeted methodologic areas, and provides an environment to support career growth and enhance collaboration. Units bring together a diverse group of investigators around broad topic areas to fosters the creation of innovative ideas regarding how to evaluate and improve population health across diverse populations and geographic regions. These Units include health systems research, population health research, health disparities/community engagement, global health, biostatistics/economics, and Veterans Administration research. A seminar series with two seminars each month provide an avenue for presentation by senior investigators in a Grand Rounds style, and presentations by junior investigators in a Works-In-Progress style to receive feedback and guidance. In addition, a number of opportunities exist to help build capacity of junior faculty, including grant development and writing group meetings, and monthly team-based mentorship meetings. Investigators have expertise in areas surrounding chronic disease management, social determinants of health, health disparities, cancer prevention and outcomes, cardiovascular disease, patient-provider communication, surgical care outcomes, patient safety, maternal and child health, and behavioral health.
