The intent is to understand how best to communicate and sustain knowledge and the associated evidence-based interventions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Implementation Research:<\/strong> The scientific study of the use of strategies to adopt and integrate evidence-based health interventions into clinical and community settings to improve care, patient outcomes, and population health.<\/p>\n<h4>D&amp;I\u00a0Science Resources<\/h4>\n<p>The\u00a0<strong><em>Demystifying Implementation Research Workshop: Basics to Beyond<\/em><\/strong> provided faculty and clinical scientists partnered with a Clinical Translational Science Award Hub an opportunity to learn more about how Implementation Research investigates adoption, integration, and sustainability of evidence-based practices in world settings to improve population health. This workshop is open to faculty and clinical scientists partnered with a Clinical Translational Science Hub, interested in Improvement Science. <a href=\"https:\/\/iims.uthscsa.edu\/ce\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2023\/07\/Workshop-Report-FINAL.pdf\">Click here to read the Final Workshop Report<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Implementation Science Research Development (ImpRes) Tool and Guide<\/strong><br \/>\nThis tool provides step-by-step instructions for developing an implementation science research study. <a href=\"https:\/\/kingsimprovementscience.org\/cms-data\/resources\/ImpRes_Tool_May_2018.pdf\">Click here to access the <em>Tool<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Guide.<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Orientation to the Science of Dissemination and Implementation<\/strong><br \/>\nThis National Cancer Institute &#8211;
