In December 2008, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) sponsored the first NIH Summit showcasing its investment and contribution to health disparities research and unveiling a framework for moving this important field forward. The Summit, titled "The Science of Eliminating Health Disparities," drew on extensive experience of experts leading health disparities research transformation in diverse fields. The Summit also provided a historic educational opportunity to contribute to health care reform. The theme, addressing disparities through integration of science, practice, and policy, introduced a paradigm for advancing research through transformational, translational, and transdisciplinary research. Engaging active participation throughout the Summit generated recommendations bridging science, practice, and policy, including action on social determinants of health, community engagement, broad partnerships, capacity-building, and media outreach.
2008 年 12 月，美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）主办了第一届 NIH 峰会，展示了其在健康差异研究方面的投资和贡献，并公布了推动这一重要领域前进的框架。此次峰会的主题是“消除健康差异的科学”，借鉴了在不同领域领导健康差异研究转型的专家的广泛经验。峰会还提供了一个历史性的教育机会，为医疗改革做出了贡献。该主题通过将科学、实践和政策相结合来解决差异问题，为通过变革性、转化性和跨学科研究推进研究引入了一个范例。峰会全程的积极参与产生了连接科学、实践和政策的建议，包括对健康决定因素、社区参与、广泛的伙伴关系、能力建设和媒体宣传的行动。
