Registration Open for Seventh Annual Dissemination and Implementation Conference

Register now for the Seventh Annual Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation, scheduled for December 8 and 9 at the Bethesda North Marriott Hotel and Conference Center in Bethesda, Maryland. The transformation of health care and public health toward a system that optimizes individual and population health is well underway, with significant expenditures at risk. As policymakers, employers, providers and patients respond to new demands to show that health care delivery and public health systems can reliably deliver evidence-based and patient-centered services, many are eager to learn what works, for whom, in what contexts and at what cost. As a forum for bringing new developments in the science of dissemination and implementation, the seventh annual conference aims to engage researchers and experts by bridging the gap between evidence, practice and policy in health care and public health. The conference is co-hosted by the National Institutes of Health and AcademyHealth and co-sponsored by AHRQ, the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Department of Veterans Affairs. The deadline for online registration is December 1.
