• Resumen

  • An editorial is presented which addresses complexity in relation to systems science methods, population health, and the core determinants of human health as of 2017. Interacting disease causes and individual-based simulation modeling are addressed, along with positive and negative feedback loops. Health outcomes and the concept of a public health of consequence are examined, as well as formative inquiry, public health crises in the U.S., and public health researchers.
