Bio: I am a research assistant professor in the Division of Health Policy and Administration, UIC School of Public Health and a research scientist in the Health Policy Center, UIC Institute for Health Research and Policy. My research examines how environmental factors and policies can reduce modifiable risk factors such as physical inactivity, obesity, tobacco use and substance abuse in minority and underserved populations. I have over 14 years experience as a PI or co-investigator on several studies in developing and collecting environmental and policy measures, and public health research and evaluation experience including expertise and experience in: community-based research; childhood obesity, youth physical activity, adolescent substance use, and other chronic disease-related issues; and, public health policy research and evaluation at the federal, state, and local levels of government.

Bio: Dr. Jamie Chriqui is a Senior Research Scientist and Director of Policy Surveillance and Evaluation for the Health Policy Center within the Institute for Health Research and Policy at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She is Principal Investigator or co-investigator on a number of NIH and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation grants to examine the impact of state, local and school district nutrition, taxation, and/or built environment/physical activity-related policies nationwide on communities, schools, and/or individuals. She is nationally recognized for her obesity policy research work, including directing the largest ongoing nationwide evaluation of the congressionally-mandated school district wellness policies, and she is routinely called upon by decision makers, advocates and other national organizations seeking insights as to nature and extent of obesity-related policies and their impact. She was a member of the Institute of Medicine’s (IOM) Committee to Accelerate Progress in Obesity Prevention and she is currently a member of the IOM Committee to Evaluate Progress in Obesity Prevention.
