Implementation Science is a new, interdisciplinary field that develops strategies to translate research knowledge into everyday practice in real-world contexts. The primary goal of training and research in implementation science is to address and remedy the persistent gap between recent advances in medical knowledge and therapeutics and actual  individual, community and population health.

The periodical newsletter will provide information for the implementation research community at UCSF and beyond, including:

  • implementation activities at UCSF
  • funding opportunities
  • recent publications
  • events
  • training programs
