Three basic questions motivate my work

1

How do we improve the health and wellbeing of as many people as possible?

2

How do we ensure health research findings are used in practice?

3

How can health systems and communities continually learn and improve?

My Expertise

Dissemination and Implementation Science (D&I) bridges research and practice. The field's mission is to translate research findings from the health and social services literature into routine practice. D&I includes both research (e.g., what are the best methods to implement new programs?) and practice (e.g., supporting organizations to make a change). D&I builds upon the foundational research established by the fields of health promotion and prevention, health behavior change, public health and policy, change management, global health, complexity science, program evaluation, community-based participatory research, social psychology, industrial/organizational psychology, and more. 

​

My specialty is methodological and transdisciplinary, aiming to advance the science and practice of implementation and quality improvement.

 

Technical expertise includes:

  • Organizational readiness evaluation and readiness building

  • Context assessment; particularly using CFIR, TDF, and COM-B

  • Process models; particularly ISF, GTO, implementation stages, Intervention Mapping, and Implementation Mapping

  • Rapid qualitative analysis and ethnographic analysis

  • Implementation facilitation and technical assistance

  • Strategy selection and outcomes assessment

  • Process evaluation, formative evaluation, and summative evaluation

  • Pragmatic tool development

  • Quality improvement and PDSA cycles
