The Implementation Imperative: Closing the Gaps Between Research, Practice and Policy
Carolyn M. Clancy, MD
Director, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality


About the conference:

There is a recognized need to close the gap between research evidence and clinical and public health practice and policy. How is this best accomplished? Dissemination and implementation research in health seeks to answer this question, and is gaining momentum as a field of scientific inquiry. The goal of the annual NIH Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation is to facilitate growth in the research base by providing a forum for communicating and networking about the science of dissemination and implementation.
