Presentation by Dr. Russ Glasgow at Society of Behavioral Medicine in March 2026 discussing how Implementation Science integrates evidence-based practices into routine care by balancing core functions with context-specific adaptations. Using pragmatic methods and frameworks such as PRISM and RE-AIM, researchers should design for real-world impact early. This ensures interventions are relevant, feasible, and sustainable, accelerating research translation into improved population health.
This paper by Dr. Mónica Pérez Jolles and colleagues describes a participatory engagement method to design and adapt cancer prevention and control tools (interventions) to promote whole-health and aligned workflows and strategies, focusing on health equity, termed Co-creation for health equity (CO-4 Health Equity). We illustrate this novel method with primary care (prevention) and oncology (treatment) case examples.
