Abstract
Population Health Intervention Research (PHIR) is an emerging and distinct field that combines scientific research and public health practice. However, traditional academic training in research, which is founded on specific disciplinary orientations, does not sufficiently inform and prepare new PHIR researchers. In this commentary, we advance the idea that PHIR requires a broader range of competencies and knowledge that must be developed through a complementary and applied training program. Drawing on our experience as 4P Strategic Training Program fellows, we identified key elements of the program that have helped prepare us in our careers as future and new PHIR researchers. We believe that complementary and applied training programs such as the 4P Program are a promising strategy in training and supporting the next generation of PHIR researchers in their efforts to improve population health.
