Application deadline: 17:00 UTC/19:00 CET, 30 May 2024
Dates: 7 - 11 October 2024
Location: Universität Heidelberg, Germany

Interested early- and mid-career researchers planning to conduct implementation research are warmly invited to submit an application for in-person participation in the training on Applied Implementation Science Research in Global Healthcare, Systems, and Policy Settings. Applications can be submitted until 17:00 UTC on 30 May 2024 via the online system. 25 applicants will be selected to attend the intensive, five-day training from 07 - 11 October 2024 in Heidelberg, Germany. A select number of travel grants will be made available.

All interested researchers are warmly invited to watch the pre-recorded online courses on the basic foundations of implementation science research which are available at GACD implementation science e-hub. These online lectures provide an overview of theories, methods, and frameworks relevant for implementation research.

Participants in this hands-on training will acquire skills to:

• Formulate relevant implementation research question and choose an appropriate study design.
• Apply theoretical models, research designs and measurement framework
• Undertake real-world implementation research
• Implement and translate research findings into policy and practice
• Collaborate and network within Germany and globally in the field of implementation science.
