Making effective health policy requires expert knowledge of an ever-changing technological, epidemiological, social, and economic context. One important vehicle for integrating expert research into the policy process is through linkages and exchanges between researchers and government officials. A recent IJHPR special article brought together perspectives from leaders in this area from the US, the UK, and Israel. This was followed by a commentary adding a Canadian perspective, and a second commentary from the UK underscoring the importance of subject-matter context.
