Introduction Digital mental health treatments (DMHTs) have begun to be implemented in some healthcare systems across the United States. These implementations are conducted as business arrangements. Thus, information on successful or unsuccessful is not published disseminated. This slows progress, experiences and learnings siloed within each organization, hindering preventing learning slowing progress. To address this, Society for Mental Health established a DMHT Implementation Workgroup,...
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the power to improve our lives through a wide variety of applications, many which fall into healthcare space; however, lack diversity is contributing limitations in how broadly AI can help people. The UCSF AI4ALL program was established 2019 address this issue by targeting high school students from underrepresented backgrounds AI, giving them chance learn about with focus on biomedicine, and promoting inclusion. In 2020, three-week held entirely online due...
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted critical gaps in global capacity to prevent, detect, and respond infectious diseases. To effectively allocate investments that address these gaps, it is first necessary quantify the extent of need, evaluate types resources activities require additional support, engage community ongoing assessment, planning, implementation. Which are needed, where, strengthen health security? This work aims estimate costs country-level security, globally identify...
Multiple costing tools have been developed to understand the resources required build and sustain implementation of International Health Regulations (IHR), including a detailed tool by WHO (“WHO Costing Tool”) 2 action-based tools, Georgetown University's IHR Tool CDC's Priority Actions (PACT). The relative performance these is unknown. Nigeria costed its National Action Plan for Security (NAPHS) using Tool. We conducted desktop review, other compare cost estimates generated different...
Recent infectious disease outbreaks have brought increased attention to the need strengthen global capacity prevent, detect, and respond natural biological threats. However, deliberate events also represent a significant threat, but received relatively little attention. While Biological Weapons Convention provides foundation for response events, political mechanisms recover from such an event are poorly defined.We performed analysis of epidemiological timeline, international policies...
Countries, philanthropies, and private sector organizations have been actively investing in global health security around the world. However, despite coordinated approach to funding within Global Health Security Agenda, there is currently no well-established method track commitment disbursal of funds for from funders recipients or identify activities supported by existing initiatives. To address this need, we developed Tracking Dashboard. This interactive, publicly available, Web-based...
Member States of the WHO working to build capacity under International Health Regulations (IHR) are advised develop prioritised, costed plans implement improvements based on results voluntary external assessments. Defining costs associated with building IHR, however, has challenged nations, funders and supporting organisations. Most current efforts national action involve long-term engagements that may take weeks or months complete. While these have value in themselves, there is an urgent...

However, deliberate events also represent a significant global threat that received relatively little attention. The Biological Weapons Convention provides foundation for response events, but political mechanisms recover from such an event are poorly defined.

Abstract Introduction The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB, and Malaria (the Fund) pivoted investments support countries in their response the COVID-19 pandemic. Recently, Fund’s Board approved global pandemic preparedness as part of new six-year strategy from 2023-2028. Methods Prior research estimated that US$124 billion is required, globally, build sufficient country-level capacity for health security, with US$76 needed over an initial three-year period. Action-based cost estimates generated...
