Day 2, Afternoon Session
CDC researchers from across the agency participated in a panel
on the translation of research findings into practice. Recognizing
the importance of disseminating and making practical use of research
results “on the ground” as key components of an expanded research
agenda, these presenters addressed the theoretical concerns and
practical challenges associated with such an expansion. They offered
several models from the HIV and asthma fields for using research
findings to improve interventions and better serve communities.
They also offered suggestions for tackling the “nuts and bolts”
of disseminating and translating research findings to the field.
