Laboratory for Care Systems

Care systems are interconnected wholes shaped by decisions, institutions, and uncertainty over time.

Care systems link individuals, communities, public and private organizations, population health, social policy, and data. Decisions across these levels shape outcomes over time.

Understanding how these interactions evolve is central to understanding how care systems function under real constraints.
