I am an expert in implementation science and knowledge translation (KT), working in many areas of health, mental health, and global health. My research aims to improve the implementation of evidence into practice and community and to broaden the reach of evidence more generally to support decision making, practice, policy, knowledge and awareness.
Main topics of interest:
Implementation-informed Service Design
Implementation Theory
Evaluation of Implementation
I developed and provide professional development in KT internationally through the Specialist Knowledge Translation Training™ and the Knowledge Translation Professional Certificate™ (http://tinyurl.com/p2p5du6). The KTPC is recognized as a Leading Practice by Accreditation Canada and has over 380 graduates worldwide. Since 2004, SKTT™ and affiliated program, SKTTAustralia™, have trained over 3000 learners internationally.
