About us
Evidence for Action (E4A) is a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, based at the Center for Health and Community at the University of California, San Francisco. E4A supports investigator-initiated research to develop the evidence-base to align with RWJF’s new vision of building a Culture of Health. We fund innovative research to address the gaps in knowledge needed to inform, develop and refine the strategies to build a Culture of Health, with a particular focus on research that will help advance health equity. To achieve our goals we will work with researchers both within and outside of the traditional health sectors. The National Program Office is led by Directors Nancy Adler, PhD, and David Vlahov, RN, PhD, FAAN; Associate Directors Maria Glymour, ScD, MS, and Laura Gottlieb, MD, MPH; and Deputy Director Erin Hagan, PhD, MBA.

Vice President for Research and Evaluation and Chief Science Officer at Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
Research shapes the policies, practices, and norms impacting our health and wellbeing. What can be done to make sure these findings are produced, collected, shared, and used to benefit communities and keep health equity at the center? Our vision is to reorient our systems so they not only value academic and biomedical science, but also cultural and community knowledge as valid sources for decision making. In the “Unscripted: Candid Conversations about the Future of Research” series from @RWJF, six visionary thinkers will take the mic for live, one-on-one discussions on how they are challenging the research status quo to advance health equity. Happening daily throughout the week of October 21, these leaders will discuss what the future of research might look like and what it will take to get there: 🟣Lil Milagro Henriquez, PhD (ABD), MA, of the Mycelium Youth Network 🟣Erica Walker, MSc, ScD, of Community Noise Lab at Brown University School of Public Health 🟣Mary Bassett, MD, MPH, of the FXB Center for Health and Human Rights at Harvard University 🟣Brian Nosek, PhD, of the Center for Open Science 🟣Keolu Fox, Ph.D., PhD, of the Indigenous Futures Lab at the University of California, San Diego - Rady School of Management 🟣Sarah Richarson, PhD, of GenderSci Lab at Harvard University There should always be space for open and honest conversations about how research can better serve everyone. No matter what sector you work in, these conversations could spark ideas for how you too can be a part of efforts to create a healthier future. Register here to tune in: https://rwjf.ws/j6Fis4
