Abstract:

Abstract The Gerontological Society of America (GSA) is home to an established summer policy internship program. Aimed at emerging scholars, these professional development opportunities are named in memory of Kathryn Hyer, MPP, PhD, FGSA, FAGHE, and Greg O’Neill, PhD, who were policy scholars and long-time GSA members. Interns participate in an 8-week in person experience in Washington, DC. Interns will share how their experiences have impacted their research and their future career goals in gerontology.

Abstract:

Abstract Advancements in education, medicine, wealth, technology, and population health have increased individual life expectancies. Healthy aging is not just a function of healthy genes, however; aging is modified by the broader context, which, in turn, creates opportunities and challenges that must be addressed by society. Lack of organized responses to population aging exacerbate social inequities based on workplace discrimination, displacement, and impoverishment, and contribute to public health inequalities pertaining to disease and disability, isolation, and vulnerability among older adu

Abstract:

While there has been a long-standing concern about the role of policy within social work education and social work practice, most of the emphasis has been on social work education at the BSW and MSW levels. This article examines policy education at the PhD level. It first explores how policy is taught in social work PhD programs in the United States, with an emphasis on how policy theory and research methods are included. Next, it explores the nature of policy research conducted by social work PhD students in the United States by examining the policy content in their doctoral dissertations. Th

Abstract:

Across the world, refugee hosting has been associated with costs and benefits to the hosting nations. However, in Kenya, hosting Somali refugees is majorly considered costly rather than beneficial to the nation. The county’s high insecurity is one of the major effects that Somali refugees are associated with. No objective research has indicated the specific benefits of Somali refugees in Kenya. Using mixed research method, this study focused on establishing the costs and benefits of Somali refugees. The findings show that Somali refugees pose positive and negative effects on the Kenyan state.

Abstract:

Establishing mechanisms for involving scientists in policymaking for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a long-term requirement. The Zurich-Basel PhD program Science and Policy involves early-stage scientists in science-policy boundary work through internships and co-supervision at academic and policy institutions. In a Delphi study, students reported to have acquired new skill sets for science-policy dialogue. However, challenges remain, including the lack of time for policy work during a PhD project or the different incentive systems in academia and policy.

Abstract:

Background The Japanese central government’s human resource system is a “closed career-based system,” meaning that some ministries/agencies appoint government officials with PhDs in the field of Natural Science to positions responsible for policymaking and comprehensive coordination, similar to administrative officials who are executive candidates, rather than the positions requiring scientific and specialized knowledge. This study aims to clarify the characteristics of PhD-holding government officials, involved in the policymaking process, who possess expertise based on their doctoral degree

Abstract:

As technology platforms have created new markets and new ways of acquiring information, economists have come to play an increasingly central role in tech companies—tackling problems such as platform design, strategy, pricing, and policy. Over the past five years, hundreds of PhD economists have accepted positions in the technology sector. In this paper, we explore the skills that PhD economists apply in tech companies, the companies that hire them, the types of problems that economists are currently working on, and the areas of academic research that have emerged in relation to these problems.

Abstract:

Background Translation of health research findings into policy remains a challenge in sub-Saharan Africa. Factors influencing health research utilization are poorly described in literature. Therefore, identifying factors that influence the utilization of research findings for policy formulation is essential to facilitate implementation of evidence-based interventions. The purpose of this study was to explore the views of academic leaders as to why doctoral research is not adequately used in policymaking. Methods In-depth interviews were held with purposively selected key informants from the Co

Abstract:

Abstract The third speaker is University of Southern California PhD candidate Haley Gallo. Haley will discuss strategies for connecting research to policy as a graduate student, as well as aging-policy internship opportunities for graduate students, including the GSA’s Greg O’Neill Policy Internship. Haley’s research focuses on policies that promote the goals of the Age-Friendly Cities and Communities initiative. She is passionate about including older adults—particularly those from groups who are traditionally left out—in the development of research and policy that affects people of all ages.

Abstract Objective The goals of this study are to describe the value and impact of Project HealthDesign (PHD), a program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation that applied design thinking to personal health records, and to explore the applicability of the PHD model to another challenging translational informatics problem: the integration of AI into the healthcare system. Materials and Methods We assessed PHD’s impact and value in 2 ways. First, we analyzed publication impact by calculating a PHD h-index and characterizing the professional domains of citing journals. Next, we surveyed and inter

This literature focused on an emerging construct in justifying the inclusion of organizational theory and behavior (OTB) in PhD programs in educational leadership and policy (ELP), and comparing this construct in relation to the rationale for inclusion, key organizational theories and behaviors for leadership and policy, and the benefits of organizational theory and behavior to PhD graduates that share a common concern in the dimension of effective leadership and policy in organizations. Drawing broadly from the interconnections and intersections of the organization theory and behavior literat
