How Can Policymakers and Epidemiologists Collaborate Effectively?
Effective collaboration between policymakers and epidemiologists requires mutual understanding and respect for each other's roles. Policymakers should engage epidemiologists early in the decision-making process and prioritize science-driven policies. On the other hand, epidemiologists should strive to communicate their findings clearly and in a policy-relevant manner. Building interdisciplinary teams and fostering continuous dialogue can enhance the effectiveness of public health interventions.
