Indigenous people throughout North America are at greater risk for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and poor TBI-related outcomes based on disparities in health, connections to poverty, violence, and systemic racism. An AIR research team is working in partnership with the Great Plains Tribal Chairmen’s Health Board, an Advisory Council of TBI stakeholders, and technical experts in TBI to develop a resource bundle for American Indians. These groups will collaborate to translate information from resources that the Model Systems Knowledge Translation Center has developed working with other NIDILRR-funded researchers.

The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Translation Center supports PCORI's commitment to making research findings comprehensible and useful to patients, clinicians, and others in making healthcare decisions. Drawing on AIR’s expertise in health communications, health literacy, dissemination, medicine, health services, public health, health disparities, and methods for comparative effectiveness research, the Center prepares summaries of peer-reviewed PCORI study findings.

The mission of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), an independent panel of experts in prevention and evidence-based medicine, is to make evidence-based recommendations on clinical preventive services and health promotion. Since 2010, AIR has collaborated with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, which supports the USPSTF, on the Transparency Project to facilitate task force efforts to incorporate public feedback and ensure transparency.
