Implementation Science Centers in Cancer Control (ISC3)
| Institution | Center name | Center theme |
|---|---|---|
| Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health | The Implementation Science Center for Cancer Control Equity | The Implementation Science Center for Cancer Control Equity at Harvard is improving community health by integrating health equity and implementation science for evidence-based cancer control. |
| Oregon Health and Science University | Building Research in Implementation and Dissemination to close Gaps and achieve Equity in Cancer Control (BRIDGE-C2) Center | The BRIDGE-C2 Center will focus on advancing implementation science to improve cancer screening and prevention in underserved populations. |
| University of Colorado School of Medicine | Colorado ISC3 | University of Colorado Denver will focus on pragmatic approaches to assess and enhance the value of cancer prevention and control in rural primary care. |
| University of Washington | Optimizing Implementation in Cancer Control: OPTICC | The OPTICC Center will develop, test, and refine innovative methods for optimizing the implementation of evidence-based interventions in cancer control. |
| Wake Forest School of Medicine | iDAPT: Implementation and Informatics—Developing Adaptable Processes and Technologies for Cancer Control | iDAPT will advance the field of implementation science by using technologies to support rapid-cycle and real-time deployment and testing of implementation processes and adaptations within cancer control. |
| Washington University in St. Louis | Washington University Implementation Science Center in Cancer Control (WU-ISC3) | The WU-ISC3 will build a rigorous, scientific evidence base for rapid-cycle implementation research to increase the reach, external validity, and sustainability of effective cancer control interventions. The Center’s goal and activities capture three distinct features [1]: a focus on the elimination of cancer disparities [2]; the need for rapid-cycle studies; and [3] the use of systems science approaches to enhance methods and outcomes in implementation science. |
