WEBINAR SERIES

Effectiveness or Implementation: Why not both? A Hybrid Designs Webinar


“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 provided 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 provided 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 was 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.

Implementation of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond

The COVID-19 pandemic has propelled many cancer care health professionals into the unfamiliar territory of telehealth. Now that some time has passed since new measures have been in place, how will telehealth in cancer care be maintained after the pandemic ends?

This interactive webinar discussed:
  • How COVID-19 has affected telehealth in cancer care 
  • How implementation science can be used for the sustained implementation of telehealth
  • How to help those who may have access issues or limited telehealth literacy

WEBINAR:
Knowledge Translation As A System
​

25 October 2017

About the webinar

Knowledge Translation (KT), one of many terms for translation involves a complex system of interactions among researchers and research users to ensure relevance and to accelerate the capture of research benefits through more effective services and products. KT is underpinned by an evidence base of processes, models, and frameworks. 
Picture
The terminology of impact and translation was introduced by funders, but the question of how this can be achieved still remains. The advantages of implementing KT strategies are increased opportunities to create impact and to work closely with key organisations and policy stakeholders. Working in partnership with research users from conception can provide mechanisms to ensure your research makes a difference, with the partners being the drivers for change in policy and practice. This webinar will highlight how translation is a system of processes that lead to & enable research impact. The processes, planning, and barriers associated with achieving research impact through a KT system will be presented plus an example of where KT methodologies have led to positive and measurable impact.

Making a Real World Impact: Cracking the Nut of Policy with the Sunbed Ban
This webinar tells the story of the sunbed ban in Australia. It gives a brief overview of the scientific evidence, the steps that were taken to influence government policy, and the facilitators and barriers to the policy-making process.​

Join Anne to hear about her experience advocating for the sunbed ban, and understand the factors which influenced the public and government to lead to changing attitudes and policy. 

THE PRESENTER
Associate Professor Anne Cust is an epidemiologist, leading the Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention Research group at the School of Public Health, The University of Sydney. Her research focuses on cancer (mainly melanoma) etiology, prevention and survivorship, with a strong emphasis on research translation. She is supported by Career Development Fellowships from the NHMRC and the Cancer Institute NSW.
