Date and Time
The Social Science Research Institute announces an interdisciplinary workshop on the What, Why and How of Implementation Science. Implementation Science (IS) aims to identify effective strategies for translating scientific discoveries into broad and sustained real-world use—toward the betterment of the human condition.
Most IS has focused on biomedical and health sciences. The goal of this workshop is to provide researchers from across Penn State with an introduction to IS and insights on how they can incorporate IS into their own research programs.
An RFA for projects that incorporate novel IS into ongoing PSU research programs will be announced.
