Health and Biotechnology

Representative Projects

RESOLVE’s contributions to health policy issues have grown steadily over the past five years. Recent work has included analyzing the potential for dialogue on provision of HIV health care for veterans and work with HIV/AIDS researchers on strategic planning. RESOLVE engaged members of the tobacco control and public health community in collaborative discussions, and has facilitated several programs on issues surrounding agricultural biotechnology.

For the past ten years, RESOLVE has provided facilitation and logistical assistance to the the Children’s Health Protection Advisory Committee (CHPAC), which advises the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Children’s Health Protection. CHPAC ensures that EPA’s standards and programs address children’s special needs, support scientific research to expand our understanding of children’s vulnerabilities to environmental health risks and exposures, and increase public education and community outreach.

RESOLVE continues to build on our work on national issues such as these and expand our role into health care access and quality issues, genomics, food and drug safety, public health preparedness and response, among many others.
