Translational science is dependent on the movement of research advancements from one stage of discovery to the next. Yet, it takes an average of 20 years for translational science discoveries to move from the discovery phase to clinical practice. Many promising discoveries never reach those who would benefit.

Dissemination and implementation research is a growing field that aims to close the gap between discovery and practice. In this ITHS event, Dr. Michael Parchman will discuss how investigators can maximize the impact of their work by designing studies in a way that discoveries can be quickly disseminated to and implemented within real-world clinical practices.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

  • Explain how dissemination and implementation research fits into the continuum of translational research
  • Provide definitions and examples of terms used in dissemination and implementation research
  • Describe the key features of the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research
  • Apply the CFIR model to critique the design of an implementation intervention study

Dr. Michael Parchman is a nationally recognized scholar in chronic illness care research and the director of Group Health Research Institute’s MacColl Center for Health Care Innovation.
