摘要
Introduction: The University of California, Los Angeles COVID-19 Health Equity Research and Advisory Committee was created to identify and fund research to address COVID-19 inequities. Methods: The committee addressed barriers to health equity research and funded $1.5 million of research. Results: These actions facilitated dialogue, shifted research infrastructure, and piloted strategies to enhance health equity impacts through consultation and feedback. We provide an overview of projects funded and highlight one to demonstrate impact. Conclusion: We provide a framework to help institutions implement similar approaches to centering health equity in research.
