A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize and conduct a public workshop to learn from examples of health systems science education across the learning continuum. Health systems science is the study of how health care is delivered in a way that improves patient care and the ability of patients to navigate the care system. Invited presentations and discussions will involve global audiences in understanding a pathway toward implementing health systems science into curricula by bringing the education and practice sectors together. Invited speakers may present examples and research related to components of health systems science including effective interprofessional education and collaborative practice; aligning education and practice; promoting systems thinking, considering systems competencies, and developing health systems science influencers as change agents for designing resilient, equitable, high-quality health systems while advancing innovation and supporting the wellbeing of all providers.

The planning committee will select and invite speakers and discussants and moderate the discussions at the workshop. Following the workshop, a proceedings of the presentations and discussions will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
