在过去的几十年里，在理解、预防和治疗慢性病方面取得了重大进展。鉴于多个学科取得了如此多的进展，目前尚不清楚为什么在总体上和各个亚组中没有实现大幅减少疾病的潜力。社会经济和种族/民族差异在广泛的疾病结果中仍然存在，一些研究强调了进一步提高人群行为风险因素患病率的重要性。本文的目标是探讨跨学科合作在翻译与这些令人烦恼的公共卫生问题相关的研究中的作用，特别是探索促进有效和可持续翻译的因素。跨学科合作也有很大的潜力，以加快采用循证实践的速度。在学术和社区设置的跨学科合作的例子，沿着的因素，可能会影响跨学科的努力的长期成果。
In the past few decades, significant advances have been made related to understanding, preventing, and treating chronic disease. Given these many advances across multiple disciplines, it is unclear why the potential for yielding substantial reduction in disease has not been achieved overall and across various subgroups. Socioeconomic and racial/ethnic disparities in a wide range of disease outcomes persist, and a number of studies highlight the importance of further improving behavioral risk-factor prevalence on a population level. The goal of this paper is to explore the role of transdisciplinary collaboration in the translation of research related to these vexing public health problems, and, in particular, to explore factors that appear to facilitate effective and sustainable translation. Transdisciplinary collaboration also has great potential to speed the rate of adoption of evidence-based practices. Examples of transdisciplinary collaborations in academic and community settings are provided, along with factors that may influence the long-term outcomes of transdisciplinary efforts.
