The Department of Population Health is comprised of a diverse group of faculty and staff working on pressing challenges in New York City, New York State, and around the world. The Department’s twin goals are to improve health for all while simultaneously reducing health inequities. The divisions, sections, and centers in the Department of Population Health engage in interdisciplinary research, training, and service to improve health and health equity at the population level. Together, the Department’s six divisions house numerous sections and centers, spanning diverse disciplines including implementation science, substance use, epidemiology, biostatistics, behavioral economics, medical ethics, and healthcare delivery science. Interdisciplinary collaboration with clinical departments, basic science departments, public agencies and community partners is a hallmark of our work.

NYU Grossman School of Medicine is one of the most dynamic and highly ranked academic medical centers in the nation. In 2009, the NYU Langone Health’s Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) was launched to improve the quality, efficiency, and impact of medical research, and to improve the implementation of research findings into local communities. To advance its mission of health equity, the institution was the first in the nation to make medical school free, and an Institute for Excellence in Health Equity (IEHE) was launched in 2020 to improve health equity across research, education, clinical care and community. Faculty in the Department of Population Health collaborate closely with the IEHE and the CTSI.
