Abstract

In his departing remarks, outgoing NIH Director Dr. Francis Collins lamented that he should have engaged more with behavioral science to develop COVID-19 mitigation strategies (PBS News Hour, 2021). Behavioral medicine can contribute unique value to public health efforts to achieve optimal health for all. Yet, we continue to see gaps in the dissemination of behavioral medicine research and gaps in the effective translation of science into public health practice and policy.
