New Infographic for Policymakers Now Available Congratulations to Vicky Duong, Bridget Graham, and Belinda Lawford for their winning infographic for policymakers entitled "Improving Care for Osteoarthritis: The Forgotten Chronic Disease".

Policymakers play a critical role in 1) crafting and enacting rules, laws, and regulations; 2) delivering guidance documents; and 3) directing public investment in research and healthcare to positively affect the lives of people with OA. The infographic's purpose is to convince policymakers that investments in OA research and healthcare improve quality of life and increase productivity.
