Overview

A gap in knowledge exists in methods to study the translation of research evidence into practice, an essential component to improving care delivery. Implementation science methods can be utilized to understand and rigorously capture elements of context in healthcare implementation settings. This can improve understanding of clinical effectiveness outcomes and provide knowledge that can inform future implementation efforts to improve care.

This session will deliver essential knowledge and improve awareness of implementation science methods for clinicians, researchers and healthcare administrators.
