✕Less likely to help
Patients not directly involved in maternal and reproductive health research or those outside the program’s community focus may not benefit.
What this research studies
This NIH grant funds the SUCCEED Core to provide infrastructure, training, and tailored support for researchers and community stakeholders in the Maternal and Reproductive Health Excellence COBRE at the University of Arkansas. It emphasizes authentic stakeholder engagement across individuals, families, communities, and policy environments to drive impactful work. The core helps junior faculty and project teams partner with communities, gather diverse perspectives, and disseminate findings in practical ways. This is about building the people and processes that connect research to real-world health improvements.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, it could accelerate research that improves maternal and reproductive health in communities by integrating stakeholder input from the start.
How similar studies have gone: Stakeholder-engaged approaches have shown promise in improving relevance and uptake of health research, though dedicated support structures like this are still being developed.
