Tuesday 22nd June 2021 9:00am-10:30am
The Cancer Implementation Science and Sydney Health Partners Implementation Science Communities of Practice are joining forces again to present an interactive webinar on:
Matching Implementation Strategies to Barriers and Enablers
A common obstacle to successful implementation is selecting the most suitable implementation strategies to address identified barriers and enablers.
Various conceptual frameworks (e.g., the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research; CFIR and Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services; PARiHS) broadly address how to operationalise implementation strategies, but there is limited guidance on how to match implementation strategies with known barriers and enablers.
This webinar would suit researchers wanting expert guidance on how to use available tools and approaches for matching specific implementation strategies to identified barriers and enablers as part of implementation science research.
In this interactive webinar, the President of the Society for Implementation Research Collaboration, Assistant Prof Byron Powell, will provide an overview of issues to consider when attempting to match implementation strategies to barriers and enablers. Research Fellow, Dr Natasha Roberts will provide a case study from her recently completed PhD on using an implementation science framework to integrate symptom PROMs into routine care. This session will be moderated by Dr Ben Smith, who is working with the Translational Cancer Research Centres to build implementation science capacity and collaborations for better cancer outcomes through the Implementation Science Community of Practice.

Friday 23rd April 2021 11:00am-1:00pm
The Cancer Implementation Science and Sydney Health Partners Implementation Science Communities of Practice are joining forces to present an interactive webinar on:
How to conduct pilot & feasibility implementation trials in clinical practice
Feasibility and pilot studies for implementation trials are similar to those for intervention trials, but focus on developing implementation strategies, refining research methods and undertaking preliminary testing of implementation strategies. This slightly different focus often presents challenges for researchers who are new to implementation science, which we aim to address in this interactive webinar for clinician-researchers and implementation researchers.
In this interactive webinar, A/Prof Joanne Shaw will provide an overview of issues to consider when conducting feasibility and pilot studies for implementation trials and illustrate how those issues played out in her pilot work for the ADAPT Program (Anxiety and Depression Pathway Program). A/Prof Peter Grimison, A/Prof Susanna Park & Dr Cassandra White will present case studies on their work in setting up pilot and feasibility implementation studies. This session will be moderated by Dr Ben Smith, who is working with the Translational Cancer Research Centres to build implementation science capacity and collaborations for better cancer outcomes through the Implementation Science Community of Practice.
About the Sydney Health Partners Implementation Science Community of Practice
The Sydney Health Partners Implementation Science Community of Practice is an online community for all those interested in Implementation Science. Bringing together healthcare professionals, researchers and students from across Sydney Health Partners and beyond, the community facilitates networking and knowledge sharing about initiatives and methods to improve the translation of evidence into clinical practice.
The Community also supports capacity development through annual educational and training events and workshops, offering online educational resources and pilot grants for implementation research projects.

Webinar Schedule:
Do you have a cancer implementation research idea that's in its early stages of development?
We can assist with its development through our online Concept Development Workshop (CDW).
Last year we had three very successful workshops, apply now to have a chance to join the success in 2021!
When?
Towards the end of March TBC
Submission:
Please submit your cancer implementation concept by COB Monday 15 February 2021.
Need help to fill out your application? Check out this paper:
https://journals.lww.com/jporp/Fulltext/2019/12000/An_implementation_science_primer_for.2.aspx
Conditions:
The Cancer Implementation Science Community of Practice will support the development of presented concepts with the understanding that the investigator intends the project to be a collaborative study. Therefore, by accepting an invitation to the workshop, the investigator undertakes to:
Who can apply?
This workshop is open to all cancer related projects, but priority will be given to concepts submitted by Translational Cancer Research Centre (TCRC) members. If you have yet to join a TCRC please see https://www.cancer.nsw.gov.au/data-research/translational-cancer-research/funded-centres to find out more about the TCRCs and check your eligibility to join. If you would like implementation science support, please completed this [application form].
The selection process:
Submissions will be reviewed by representatives from the ‘Cancer Implementation Science Help Team’.
Submissions will be considered based on:
What will you get out of submitting a concept?
If your concept is selected you will receive multiple rounds of feedback from our expert panel. The concept will go through an initial review stage, feedback will be given to you for refinement, then you will present the revised version at our online CDW where further feedback will be given.
Who can attend?
Successful investigators and members of their proposed research team will be invited to attend the workshop.

“It takes an average of 17 years for 14% of original research to be integrated into clinical practice among physicians”.
As shocking as the above catchcry may seem, that's the estimate that we've been hearing over and over again in the realm of implementation science. So the question is... what can be done by researchers and practitioners to help speed up the process of translating research into real-world uptake impact? Some have called this a “methodologist’s dream”, i.e., combining effectiveness and implementation in varying degrees in one design.
In this interactive* webinar, A/Prof Luke Wolfenden will provide an overview, design considerations, strengths and challenges of hybrid designs, tips for seeking grant funding and future directions. Dr Joanne Beames and Dr Ursula Sansom-Daly will provide case studies of Type I and Type II hybrid studies focused on using technology to deliver effective and scalable depression and psychosocial cancer care. This session will be moderated by Dr Ben Smith, who is working with the Translational Cancer Research Centres to build implementation science capacity and collaborations for better cancer outcomes through the Implementation Science Community of Practice.
*Specific Q&A after each presenter and general Q&A at the end.
