“Bridging the Gap:  Advancing Health Behavior Research through Implementation Science"

Implementation science plays a crucial role in translating research findings into real-world practice, ensuring that evidence-based interventions effectively reach and impact target populations. This conference will explore the intersection of implementation science and health behavior research, highlighting innovative strategies, best practices, and challenges in successfully implementing interventions to promote positive health behavior change. By fostering collaboration among researchers, practitioners, and policymakers, we aim to accelerate the translation of research into practice, ultimately improving health outcomes and reducing health disparities.
