The SIP will be led by <b>Leigh F. Callahan, PhD<\/b>, Mary Link Briggs Distinguished Professor of Medicine in Rheumatology, Allergy &amp; Immunology and Director of the Osteoarthritis Action Alliance. Across three PRCs (UNC, University of South Carolina, and University of Utah), the AMWRN will form a cohesive network of experts committed to sharing programmatic and scientific information, planning and conducting collaborative research and evaluation, translating research into practice, and widely disseminating findings.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to leading the AMWRN, the OA Action Alliance will also conduct a research study managed by <b>Katie Huffman, MA<\/b>, OAAA Director of Education and Outreach, to refine, test, and scale a healthcare provider-driven intervention that leverages provider resources to facilitate patient engagement in arthritis appropriate, evidence-based interventions. In years 1-2 of the funding, the project team will work closely with Russell Coletti, MD, MPH, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of General Medicine and Clinical Epidemiology and his colleagues at UNC Internal Medicine clinics to conduct a pilot study. In later years, the team will partner with John A.
