From the website: "The Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Genomics and Precision Public Health (TIDIR-GPPH) Facilitated Course is being offered in 2024 and is open to all current ORISE fellows and mentors! The course is intended to provide participants with a thorough grounding in conducting dissemination and implementation (D&I) research with a specific focus on genomics and precision public health. TIDIR-GPPH will be a hybrid course including training through open access modules with assigned reading material and office hours and culminating with a 2-day in-person event (September 5-6, 2024)."
A new agenda for implementing population genomic screening
"Nearly a decade into the proliferation of population genomic screening programs, it is clear that such programs provide benefit in certain contexts. Determining whether these programs provide net positive outcomes across diverse populations, however, will require a significant shift in approach and scale. This shift can be modeled on a precision health research agenda that capitalizes on pragmatic and implementation science methods, learning health system principles, and stakeholder engagement. Acknowledging that research and clinical implementation must coexist will help us realize the promise of population genomic screening."
Implementation research: an approach to overcoming the know-do gap
From the article: " Many people who could benefit from evidence-based treatments do not receive them; a circumstance that is sometimes referred to as the know-do gap. We know the interventions that can be beneficial, but we do not know how to do those interventions in real-world settings. The gap can be particularly large if influenced adversely by social determinants of health. Implementation research seeks to produce evidence to reduce the know-do gap."
From the abstract: " Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a heritable disorder affecting 1.3 million individuals in the USA. Eighty percent of people with FH are undiagnosed, particularly minoritized populations including Black or African American people, Asian or Asian American people, and women across racial groups. Family cascade screening is an evidence-based practice that can increase diagnosis and improve health outcomes but is rarely implemented in routine practice, representing an important care gap. In pilot work, we leveraged best practices from behavioral economics and implementation science—including mixed-methods contextual inquiry with clinicians, patients, and health system constituents—to co-design two patient-facing implementation strategies to address this care gap..."
