The UW Health Promotion Research Center conducts community-based research that promotes the health and well-being of middle-aged and older adults, particularly those with lower incomes and/or in underserved populations who are more likely to experience health disparities. Our research includes a broad range of health promotion topics, including healthy aging, cancer prevention and control, workpla
ce health, physical activity, depression management, and brain health. For this research, we collaborate with local, regional, and national partners who are committed to health promotion and improving people’s quality of life. We also partner with organizations that reach large numbers of individuals, including nonprofits, employers, business groups, community networks, and government agencies. Posting policy:
