Karen Knudsen: Discussing the power of data to address the most critical health issues

Karen Knudsen shared a post on LinkedIn:

“How much fun was that?

Thank you NASEM Health and Medicine Division for asking me to speak to the absolutely brilliant Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Health Policy Fellows, as they prepare for federal placements.

It was a joy to discuss the power of data in forming cogent policy priorities to address the most critical health issues – something we think about every day at American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN).

Durable solutions to health are found in policy!”
