The plenary will feature two Dissemination and Implementation Program awardees, each of whom has developed thoughtful strategies for promoting the uptake of evidence from their PCORI-funded research in practice. Their strategies take findings out of the research context, address barriers to uptake, and are designed to establish scalable models for widespread future implementation. This session will:

• Demonstrate PCORI’s commitment to, and achievements in, getting research results into practice to inform patients’ and others’ healthcare decisions.
• Demonstrate the use of implementation science principles to inform putting PCORI-funded research findings into practice settings.
• Raise awareness and understanding among PCORI-funded researchers about opportunities to extend their work, from testing the comparative effectiveness of interventions in the research setting to adapting approaches and demonstrating implementation in real-world settings.
