- We are responding to the misinformation being propagated about our study, “Implications of Future US Diet Scenarios on Greenhouse Gas Emissions,” published in 2020.1 In this study, we explore the effect on greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) of a hypothetical reduction in the consumption of animal-based foods in the U.S. diet and a replacement with plant-based foods. We have learned of various media…April 2021Services & Programs
- The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected specific demographics, with Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities being among the hardest hit. As vaccinations ramp up across the country, data has shown that — despite some efforts to provide vaccines to typically underserved populations — people of color are at higher risk yet are still less likely to be vaccinated. In this article,…April 2021Vaccine Access and Uptake, Racism
- So, what should we call neighborhoods that lack access to fresh foods and grocery stores, to no fault of their own? A food apartheid is more than the lack of grocery stores and other healthy food options in non-white and/or low-income communities. Food apartheid also points to the discrimination of communities of color when it comes to economic opportunities. The T. Colin Campbell Center for…April 2021Services & Programs

But how can health care organizations use that data to tell a story that guides the delivery of quality care and improves outcomes for all patients? A new Market Insights report from the AHA Center for Health Innovation describes how…March 2021Systemic Determinants, Racism
- More than a year into the pandemic, COVID-19 is proving to be a complicated syndemic with political, economic, and social factors influencing who is most at risk of infection and death. With communities impacted by structural racism facing higher COVID-19 infection and mortality rates, state responses and recovery plans are focusing on equity. The latest update to the National Academy for State…March 2021COVID-19/Coronavirus
- Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to drastically improve patient outcomes. AI utilizes algorithms to assess data from the world, make a representation of that data, and use that information to make an inference.

- Social determinants of health, such as working and living conditions and quality healthcare access, aren’t the same for everyone. Health inequities pose a serious challenge to the healthcare community, but healthcare providers have a powerful tool at their disposal: cultural competence. Cultural competence in health care addresses the disparities that people of racially and culturally diverse…March 2021Social/Structural Determinants
- February marks Black History Month and it is a time for us to celebrate and remember the people and events that have got us to where we are today. It encourages many to learn about the history they were never taught, how the world has changed, and what still needs to be done to create a world free from racism, stigma, and discrimination.

- As our nation continues to reel from the impact of the dual crises of the COVID-19 pandemic and racial strife, we increasingly understand that trust in each other and our institutions will be essential for progress. However, data from the last several decades show a progressive erosion of trust. Absent a foundation of trust, we have watched pseudo-science and conspiracy theories gain traction on…February 2021Policy and Practice
