Training Programs

Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Cancer (TIDIRC)

The Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Cancer (TIDIRC) provides participants with a thorough grounding in conducting D&I research with a specific focus on cancer. All online training materials are open access. Applications for the facilitated program are accepted annually. Learn more.

TIDIRC

Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health (TIDIRH)

Update: This program is no longer active. The Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health (TIDIRH) was developed by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to help build capacity in dissemination and implementation research. TIDIRH was held annually from 2011 through 2015 as a residential training program. From 2016 through 2020, TIDIRH has met in the Washington, D.C. area offered as a dual online and in-person training.

Events

Rapid Cycle Research to Improve Cancer-Related Care Workshop

The IS Team, in collaboration with the Healthcare Delivery Research Program, hosted the Advancing Rapid Cycle Research (RCR) to Improve Cancer-Related Care workshop that identified principal features that should inform the design of RCR to improve cancer care delivery, explored multi-faceted barriers toward conducting RCR in cancer care delivery settings, and generated viable solutions for increasing the quality and quantity of RCR conducted in cancer care delivery settings.

Implementation Science Webinars

The Implementation Science Webinars series is a free, monthly webinar series focused on advanced topics in dissemination and implementation (D&I) research.

Advancing Data Sharing for Implementation Science

The Advancing Data Sharing for Implementation Science in Cancer Control: A workshop to facilitate collaboration and exchange brought together implementation science investigators and experts in data science, ethics, data privacy, and security to provide input on a process, scope, and trajectory for data sharing of implementation science data types.

Annual Conference on the Science of D&I

Annual Conference on the Science of D&I

This conference is convened on the front lines of D&I science to ensure that evidence is used to inform decisions that will improve the health of individuals and communities. Researchers, evaluators, and implementers interested in bridging the gap between evidence, practice, and policy in health and medicine by identifying opportunities, challenges, and strategies of disseminating and implementing research are encouraged to attend.
