Exploring the Use and Application of Implementation Science in Health Professions Education: Proceedings of a Workshop (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780309696173)

Implementation science bridges the gap between research and medical practice, investigating aspects of practice and pedagogy that make the strategies successful for future use. By introducing and training leaders, faculty, and health workforce researchers in implementation science, health professions education institutions can build capacity for evidence-based practices.

The National Academies Global Forum on Innovation in Health Professional Education held a workshop series to introduce the concept of implementation science to health professional educators to consider its potential use in the classroom. Speakers provided a foundation for discussion of the role of implementation science in health professions education and provided methods for educators interested in applying these recommendations to scale. This Proceedings of a Workshop highlights the presentations and discussions that occurred at the workshop.
