Webinar: Implementation Science and Health Equity
The July Implementation Science webinar is titled "Implementation Science and Health Equity: Current State, Challenges, and Future Directions".Join us for this month’s Implementation Science Academy webinar with Dr Guillaume Fontaine. As an implementation scientist, Dr Fontaine navigates the complex terrain of bringing scientific advancements into everyday use, devising strategies to overcome barriers and ensure that research findings effectively enhance healthcare and societal outcomes. In this webinar, he will share his expertise in the methodological approaches to support the adoption of evidence-based interventions, practices, programs, and policies in healthcare.Dr Guillaume Fontaine serves as an Assistant Professor of Implementation Science at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. He currently holds a Visiting Fellow position at the Kirby Institute, UNSW Sydney. Dr Fontaine earned his PhD from the University of Montreal and subsequently completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Centre for Implementation Research of the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute. His research program is dedicated to advancing implementation research with a focus on infectious diseases, with a focus on health equity.The Implementation Science Academy is presenting webinars each month throughout 2024. The Implementation Science webinar series aims to support researchers, clinicians and consumers to develop an understanding of how to weave implementation science into your research. Each webinar will focus on a topic relevant to implementation science and include a practical case study from an academic, consumer or clinician researcher.
