2012 Summit on the Science of Eliminating Health Disparities
October 31, 2012 - November 3, 2012
Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland -
USA
Website: <http://bit.ly/KWIuT0> http://bit.ly/KWIuT0
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), under the leadership
of the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, the National Institute
on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) at the National Institutes
of Health (NIH), and the HHS Office of Minority Health (OMH)
CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
All abstracts must be submitted no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June
15, 2012.
The abstract submission website will be available within the next few days
with more detailed information. You will receive a follow-up e-mail as soon
as the site is available for abstract submissions.
The Summit is organized around the core principle of integrating science,
policy, and practice, and offers a forum to advance scholarship and
translate new knowledge into action.
Presentation Categories
Abstracts will be accepted in three categories: posters, oral presentations,
and integrated panel presentations. Applicants may submit abstracts to more
than one category, but each submission must be based on a separate research
project. Additional information about each category is available below.
Poster Presentations
Abstracts accepted in this category will be presented during the poster
session on either November 1st or November 2nd, 2012. You will receive
further details about the scheduled presentation date if your abstract is
accepted.
Oral Presentations
Oral presentations will take place in a roundtable panel format. Each panel
will have an assigned moderator in order to promote dialogue and stimulate
discussion. Abstracts that are accepted for oral presentations will be
presented as concurrent sessions. There is also the option of submitting an
abstract in this category with the option to be considered for a poster
presentation if the abstract is not accepted for oral presentation.
Integrated Panel Presentations
Integrated panel presentations are designed to allow a group of presenters
from diverse disciplines (i.e., Science, Practice, and Policy) to discuss
health disparities and related findings on a similar theme. Abstracts for
this category should focus on science, practice, policy, and include a
community component or discuss societal issues that influence health
disparities.
Presentation Tracks
Proposals, regardless of category, should also fall under one of three
tracks:
Track 1: Translational and Trans-disciplinary Research
These presentations should promote the integration of science, practice and
policy.
. Science or research abstracts might include basic and applied,
health services, patient-oriented, epidemiological, environmental,
behavioral, and social sciences research related to health disparities.
. Policy-oriented abstracts delve into policies linked to health or
healthcare, or other areas impacting health such as public, social, and
economic policies.
. Practice abstracts examine public health practice related to
community health, healthcare, or social services delivery, and education and
training.
Applicants must clearly articulate how findings lead to new knowledge in
science, practice, or policy interventions in health disparities. For
example, policy abstracts should include the scientific evidence or practice
concept that led to the policy. If the submission is a science abstract,
then applicants should indicate how the science translates into either
practice or policy.
Themes: The following themes fall under Track 1: Translational and
Transdisciplinary Research
. Integrating Biological, Social, Behavioral and Environmental
Determinants of Health
. Health Disparity Populations, Disease Conditions and Risk Factors
. Primary Prevention and Health
. Discrimination, Racism and Stress
. Healthcare Disparities and Quality Research
. Best Practices and Approaches for Community Engagement
. Health Information Technology
. Global Population Health
Track 2: Capacity-Building and Infrastructure
Abstracts submitted under Track 2: Capacity-Building and Infrastructure,
will explore the challenges and opportunities associated with building
capacity for research, public health and primary care practice, services
delivery, training, and education. These presentations will also investigate
the implementation and sustainability of infrastructure and economic
development in disparate communities.
Themes: The following themes fall under Track 2: Capacity-Building and
Infrastructure
. Multi-sectoral Capacity-Building
. Health Workforce
. Community Capacity-Building and Sustainable Economic Development
. Data and Research Evaluation
Track 3: Outreach, Partnerships, Collaborations, and Opportunities
Eliminating health disparities requires effective outreach, partnerships,
and collaborations across federal agencies, academic institutions,
foundations, non-profit and private organizations. Track 3: Outreach,
Partnerships, Collaborations, and Opportunities, provides a venue for
representatives from various agencies and organizations to showcase their
innovative partnerships, outreach, and dissemination efforts, including
successful collaborations on addressing health disparities.
Themes: The following themes fall under Track 3: Outreach, Partnerships,
Collaborations, and Opportunities
. Public Public-Private Partnerships
. Community Partnerships
. Outreach Dissemination
. Global Health Networks
General Guidelines
. Abstracts will be peer reviewed
. Authors must select the track and theme under which their
abstracts should be considered. Abstracts may be submitted under only one
Summit theme, and must be related to one or more of the topics listed under
the selected theme.
. General selection criteria will be based on: (1) quality of
abstract; (2) implications for health disparities research, policy, or
practice, or its application; (3) new insights for health disparities
research or its application; (4) clarity and completeness of abstract; and
(5) relevance to specified theme.
. Applicants may submit abstracts to more than one category, but
each submission must come from a distinct research project.
. All abstract submissions are final, no changes or modifications
will be permitted.
Abstract Awards/Recognition: Abstracts will be considered for recognition in
the following award categories: outstanding scientific poster, outstanding
policy poster, outstanding public health practice poster, outstanding
clinical practice poster, and outstanding community-based health disparities
research or intervention poster. Early investigators, junior faculty,
community researchers, and policy professionals are eligible for
recognition.
