The First Dedicated and Nationally-Focused Professorship of Population Health
"Understanding population health is key in reimagining the future of healthcare delivery in America and Navvis is helping drive that vision. Endowed professorships allow us to attract, recruit, and retain the highest quality faculty, provide funding to keep us on the frontiers of research, and support the mentorship of students. They are the backbone of research and academics—and a springboard into the future of discovery.”

“Establishing an endowed professorship devoted to the health and wellbeing of whole communities is an invaluable investment in humanity. The newly-created Navvis Professorship of Population Health, the first of its kind in the nation from a private sector company, demonstrates both the company’s dedication and Jefferson’s commitment to raising health awareness and empowering people to take charge of their lives through research, education, and programs.”
