The Center for Clinical and Translational Sciences (CCTS) and UTHealth School of Public Health Center for Health Promotion and Prevention Research are hosting the inaugural Texas Institute for Implementation Science Conference and Workshop. This event will be held virtually and there is no cost to attend.
This conference is designed to explore the evolution, current state, and future research agenda in implementation science through a series of four seminars featuring lectures by leading experts in the field of implementation science and a facilitated, interactive panel discussion with lecturers. Attendees will learn about implementation science theory, implementation strategy development, selection and tailoring, study design, evaluation approaches, and real-world application of implementation science. Conference registration is open to all..

WORKSHOP DETAILS
In conjunction with the conference, we are soliciting applications for a workshop designed to guide Texas investigators in developing an implementation research-focused grant proposal. The goal of this workshop is to develop and support new implementation science researchers in Texas. Through the course of three coaching sessions, we will build on the topics covered in the seminars, provide an opportunity for investigators to get feedback on research proposals, and collaboratively work through scenarios dealing with real world application of implementation science methods. Workshops are open to Texas researchers.
The workshop is open to Texas-based researchers and health care professionals new to the field of implementation science but interested in conducting research or quality improvement projects incorporating implementation science principles
Applications Due: Friday, August 21, 2020. Applications are closed at this time.
