Description: The New England Primate Research Center (NEPRC) was major research facility of Harvard Medical School, and part of the National Primate Research Center Program of NIH. Since its inception, NEPRC was a leader in primate biomedical research and provided scientific resources and services to investigators throughout the US and abroad. Its mission was to pursue an integrated mission of research, service and training focusing on basic and applied biomedical research in nonhuman primates to provide solutions for human health problems, the biology of nonhuman primates to promote their health, well-being and appropriate scientific use, service as a regional resource to the biomedical community to expand research opportunities in nonhuman primates, and training of young scientists for professional careers in biomedical research and primate biology. The NEPRC was established by Congress in 1962 and formally dedicated in 1966, and was one of eight Regional Primate Research Centers in the US. It was supported by a base grant from the National Center for Research Resources of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Their many scientific programs were funded by research grants from categorical institutes of NIH and other federal and private agencies. The Center was organized into four Research Divisions focusing on AIDS, cancer, neuropsychiatric disorders, drug addiction, and neurodegenerative disease. In 2013, Harvard Medical School announced its decision to close the facility over the next two years, and the Center officially closed in 2015.

Description: Engineering Social Systems, part of the Department of Epidemiology at the Harvard T.H. Chan School in Boston, Massachusetts, was formed to analyze behavioral datasets that represent the social network topology and dynamics of entire countries within both the developed and developing worlds. Coupling anonymized communication events from hundreds of millions of people with longitudinal data ranging from financial transactions and movement patterns to regional information about access to health care and socioeconomic status, we are developing machine learning and network analysis algorithms that we hope will provide deeper insight into human societies. Ultimately, the ESS research agenda is to determine how we can use these insights to actively improve the lives of the billions of people who generate this data and the societies in which they live.

Description: Harvard Peer Education Systems is the first academic program exclusively devoted to the study and improvement of peer education as a methodology. We believe that rigorous peer education is an essential asset-based social strategy for examining and strengthening or challenging beliefs and group norms that form the environment in which individuals adopt health behaviors. We support the development of evidence-based, intersectoral [hyperlink to Systems page] and sustainable peer education systems addressing HIV/AIDS and other related and independently important threats to health such as gender violence, substance abuse, and racism. We believe that health is a basic human right, and creating environments that promote health and prevent illness is a responsibility of government and community, a requirement for economic development, and a sensible priority.

Title: Culture of Health

URL: https://cultureofhealth.harvard.edu/

Collection: Institutional Archives

Description: Every organization — whether in the health sector or not — impacts the public’s health. The Harvard Culture of Health (COH) team believes health is good for business and should be a pervasive part of a company’s culture, not differentiated from the credo and every day practices that serve as the foundation for business. Therefore, our work focuses on how business and public health leaders can play an active role in shaping and fostering a Culture of Health through business practices that both serve their bottom line and improve health across the Corporate Four Pillars. We believe this can be done by companies across all industries, irrespective of size. The Harvard Culture of Health Program is a joint initiative between faculty from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and the Harvard Business School.

Philip Leder from the National Institutes of Health was recruited by Harvard Medical School to establish the new department and served as the founding Chair. Howard Goodman, head of the Massachusetts General Hospital Molecular Biology Department joined forces with Leder in establishing the new Department of Genetics. From its very start, the Department has had two main units. While separated geographically, they nonetheless function as a single department with all members involved in mentoring junior faculty and in recruiting new faculty. The convergence of interests at the hospital and the Department of Genetics has provided the opportunity to conduct joint recruitment of new faculty with primary appointments as full members of the Department of Genetics whose laboratories are located within the affiliated hospitals.

Title: Department of Health Care Policy

URL: https://hcp.hms.harvard.edu/

Collection: Institutional Archives

Description: The Department of Health Care Policy (HCP) at Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, aims to improve the health of the public through improved health policy. HCP was the result of a partitioning of the Department of Preventive Medicine and Clinical Epidemiology (PCME) in 1988 (other partitions include the Department of Preventive Medicine, also in 1988, and the Department of Ambulatory Care and Prevention in 1993). HCP was founded due to an evolving belief that health care policy was becoming more relevant to physicians at all stages of their careers, and because of the pending arrival of Joseph P. Newhouse, PhD, as the new leader of the university-wide Division of Health Policy Research and Education. Barbara J. McNeil, MD, PhD, formerly PCME Professor of Clinical Epidemiology, led in its development and later became head of the department. HCP founders Paul D. Cleary, Arnold M. Epstein, and Barbara J. McNeil, along with statistician Constantine Gatsonis, social scientist Edward Guadagnoli, and colleagues from the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, organized a collaborative research project--one of the first Patient Outcome Research Teams (PORTs) on acute myocardial infarction. This grant provided a model for research that continues to this day; specifically, multidisciplinary groups that always have a statistician devoting a significant amount of time to the project, a physician, and one or two social scientists. There were several proposed names to this department before HCP was chosen, including the Department of Clinical Epidemiology and Health Services Research, the Department of Health Services Research, and the Department of Medical Practice and Policy Analysis. These multiple names are referenced throughout early documentation of the evolving department.

Description: As part of its project mission, the Harvard FXB Center for Health & Human Rights in collaboration with other Harvard schools will convene a high profile international conference of experts drawn from academia, government, business and civil society to examine the scientific, technical, social and political aspects of national ID systems. Set to take place from November 19 to November 21, 2015, this two and half-day conference will provide a forum for intellectual exploration and discussion, complementary to but separate from convenings on the topic by government or industry representatives. The conference is envisaged as a forum for opinion leaders and policy innovators to address some of the most pressing conceptual, technical and ethical issues that arise. We anticipate several high level intellectual products coming out of the conference, products that may lead to other institutionally driven fora and eventually to the possible establishment of an international expert commission to review development of national identification systems globally.

Collection: Institutional Archives

Description: The Burleigh lab studies the kinetoplastid protozoan parasite, Trypanosoma cruzi, which is the causative agent of human Chagas disease. As an obligate intracellular parasite that lives in the cytoplasm of mammalian host cells, T. cruzi, forges functional connections with its host cell in order to survive. In other words, T. cruzi becomes part of an integrated biological system: the ‘host-parasite network’. Research in our laboratory seeks to understand how T. cruzi exploits host cellular functions to establish intracellular infection in mammalian cells. Our general approach has been to view this relationship through the lens of the mammalian host cell, where our studies have probed mechanisms of host cell entry by T. cruzi, identified cellular pathways that support intracellular replication of the parasite, and have determined the impact of infection on host gene expression and physiology. In these efforts, we have exploited a combination of genomic, transcriptomic and cell biological approaches. With the advancement of genome-scale technologies, we are now in a position to integrate parasite and host gene expression data with host functional genomic data to expose biological networks representing metabolic cross talk between host and parasite. Our recent functional genomic studies, for example, indicate critical points in host metabolic networks to which T. cruzi parasites couple their metabolic needs. The role of host cellular metabolism in supporting T. cruzi infection is a new area of investigation in the Chagas’ disease field that we are excited to develop with key collaborators. These studies will provide essential insights into the fundamental basis for T. cruzi parasitism, which has the potential to be leveraged in the development of novel therapeutics for Chagas’ disease.

Title: Exposure, Epidemiology and Risk Program

URL: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/eer/

Collection: Institutional Archives

Description: Using an interdisciplinary approach, the Exposure, Epidemiology and Risk Program (part of the Department of Environmental Health at the Harvard T.H. Chan School in Boston, Massachusetts) seeks to investigate and mitigate heath risks associated with environmental and occupational hazards and provide scientific evidence for sound environmental and health policies. Topics the program is investigating include the cognitive and cardiovascular effects of lead exposure, the effects of air pollution on respiratory and cardiovascular health, airborne infection transmission and health effects of bioaerosols, the effects of infectious agents and disinfection by products in drinking water, biomarkers of environmental exposure, genetic susceptibility to environmentally induced malignancies, and acute and chronic musculoskeletal effects of the work and built environment (ergonomics and safety). Faculty members measure and model ambient, indoor, and personal exposures to environmental and workplace contaminants, and develop instruments and methods for characterizing environmental factors such as pollutants. Advanced analytic/statistical methods are used to associate health outcomes with environmental factors. An important component of the EER Program is training; the program offers both Master’s and Doctoral Degrees. Currently there are 31 Doctoral and 29 Master’s students enrolled. Collaborative teaching and research are conducted in many countries, including Mexico, Chile, China, Colombia, Cyprus, Greece, Russia, Argentina, Taiwan, Japan, and the Netherlands.
