The Collaborative to Advance Clinical Health Equity (CACHE) at Duke Health is soliciting applications for innovative projects that leverage CACHE’s infrastructure and capabilities to identify, address, and eliminate disparities in healthcare. This RFA seeks interdisciplinary projects that utilize data science, comparative effectiveness research, predictive modeling, quality improvement, implementation science, social epidemiology, and community engagement to identify and mitigate healthcare disparities.

Supporting Interdisciplinary Collaboration to Improve Health Outcomes
Earlier this spring, Duke’s Collaborative to Advance Health Equity (CACHE) Initiative awarded 1-year grants for three proposals to improve care in the Duke Health system. Focused on addressing areas where current approaches to care and support could be improved, the three projects include identification and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD), transitions of care for patients with opioid use disorder (OUD), and improving screening for lung cancer, all of which pose substantial challenges among patients served by Duke Health.
