Center for Pediatric Population Health

Company Description

The Center for Pediatric Population Health (CPPH) supports multidisciplinary research teams to conduct studies and programs in collaboration with health care providers and community organizations to improve the health of child and adolescent populations. We serve as a resource to translate scientific findings and knowledge into practical applications for public health practice, health care services, and health policies.Founded in 2018, the Center for Pediatric Population Health is the newest center at UTHealth School of Public Health. While the Center is physically located in Dallas, it has the capacity for regional and statewide reach through its connection to one of the largest schools of public health in the nation, with campuses across six major metropolitan cities. It is worth noting the rapid demographic transition currently taking place in the state of Texas, which now has two of the most diverse metro areas in the entire nation; Houston is ranked first and Dallas fifth. As such, there has never been a greater time or opportunity to serve our Texas pediatric populations and aspire to health without boundaries for all.
