Jonathan Purtle is Associate Professor of Public Health Policy & Management at the New York University School of Global Public Health and also Director of Policy Research at NYU’s Global Center for Implementation Science.
Dr. Purtle is a mental health policy researcher and implementation scientist. His work examines questions such as how the implementation of policies “on the books” can be improved in practice, how research evidence can be most effectively communicated to policymakers and is used in policymaking processes, and how social and political contexts affect mental health policymaking and policy implementation. He is also studies population-based approaches to mental health, suicide prevention, and novel financing models for mental health services—such as earmarked taxes and fees.
Dr. Purtle’s work has been consistently funded by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF). He is currently leading a NIMH-funded project focused on financing policies related to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (R01MH131649), a NIDA-funded study (through the CHERISH Center, P30DA040500) that is analyzing social media data to identify audience segments of state legislators who conceptualize substance use issues in different ways and experimentally testing different ways of communicating evidence these legislators, and co-leading a NCI-funded study focused on cancer policy implementation strategies (R21ACA293319). He is also a co-investigator on projects focused on mental health and health care system resilience following disasters is Puerto Rico (R01MD016426) and Hawaiʻi (R61MD019939).
