The Office of Disease Prevention (ODP) is the lead office at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) responsible for assessing, facilitating, and stimulating research in prevention and health promotion to improve public health. ODP aims to increase the scope, rigor, dissemination, and impact of prevention research. The office advances its mission by providing leadership and support for the development, coordination, and implementation of agency-wide initiatives focused on prevention and population health science, guidance to improve the design and analysis of NIH-supported prevention research, and translation of rigorous science evidence into practice. With input from federal partners, the research community, and the public, ODP recently published a new strategic plan. The ODP Fiscal Year 2024–2028 Strategic Plan is a roadmap for NIH collaborative activities to accelerate prevention research and evidence to improve population health and well-being. The poster will highlight the plan’s seven strategic priorities and five cross-cutting themes, with a focus on ODP’s and NIH’s engagement with community and other partners to improve population health. The poster will also highlight resources available to researchers and the public to improve the rigor of research methods in studies and increase the availability, visibility, and impact of prevention and population health research.
