The NCCHPP has published an extensive literature review that deals with political actors that are often overlooked: the advisors of policy makers. The analysis we produced explores their profiles, the way they use scientific knowledge and their influence in government circles.

The summary offered here outlines highlights of the analysis and key considerations for public health actors hoping to share knowledge with policy makers’ advisors.
