The Population Health Innovation Lab provides innovative training, research, and technical assistance designed to catalyze and accelerate community efforts aimed at enhancing equity, well-being, and systems through cross-boundary collaboration.

The Population Health Innovation Lab (PHIL) brings startup thinking to community health. We leverage the assets PHI has amassed over its more than 55 years at the forefront of public health–nationally ranked researchers, diverse and proven programs, strong infrastructure, and a wide network of partners–to improve health, well-being, and equity in a community.

We see innovation as a process: move fast, try new things, measure results, and find what works. Repeat. Share. Scale. Since 2015 we have partnered with funders, community-based organizations, government stakeholders, or directly with communities themselves to co-create solutions that move beyond symptoms to address root-cause issues. We bring the science, you bring local expertise, and together we use a proven system of change theories to get results.
