SUMMARY:Numerous IMPACT members to present at AcademyHealth 2023 Annual Research Meeting and workshops
DESCRIPTION:Numerous IMPACT members are presenting at the full AcademyHealth Annual Research Meeting (ARM) conference along with pre-conference workshops and seminars in Seattle\, Washington from Saturday June 23 through Tuesday\, June 27. \nIf you would like to register for a pre-conference workshop in addition to ARM\, please do so through the main ARM registration page. \nHowever\, registration for the full ARM meeting is not required to attend a pre-conference workshop. \nOf note\, the NIH Pragmatic Trials Collaboratory is partnering with AcademyHealth to offer a 1.5 day pre-conference workshop from June 23-24. The workshop\, “Driving Tomorrow’s Outcomes Through Clinical Research in Real-World Settings: Essentials of Embedded Pragmatic Clinical Trials Workshop\,” will provide an introduction to the investigative opportunities for embedded health systems research\, along with strategies for conducting clinical trials that provide real-world evidence necessary to inform both practice and policy. Workshop attendees will have the opportunity to participate in facilitated\, hands-on learning activities and to interact with Principal Investigators of current and past embedded pragmatic clinical trials (ePCTs). \nFirsthand ePCT experiences and case studies from the NIH Pragmatic Trials Collaboratory will support and illustrate the topics presented and demonstrate how ePCTs in real-world settings are driving tomorrow’s outcomes. Speakers will include program officers and senior staff from NIH Institutes and senior investigators from the Demonstration Projects and the Coordinating Center Leadership. \nThe learning objectives of the workshop include: \n\nTo clarify the definition of ePCTs and explain their utility.\nTo introduce attendees to the unique characteristics and challenges of designing\, conducting\, and implementing ePCTs within diverse health care systems.\nTo increase the capacity of health services researchers to address important clinical questions with ePCTs in real-world settings\, driving tomorrow’s research outcomes.\n\nEach workshop has a fee in addition to the main ARM registration cost. \n If you would like to attend one of the pre-conference workshops without attending ARM\, please register here.

SUMMARY:CASI Dementia Palliative Care Clinical Trials Training Program Applications Due
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Aging and Serious Illness Dementia Palliative Care Clinical Trials Training Program provides a foundation in practical aspects involving the design and conduct of randomized clinical trials in dementia palliative care. The Program is appropriate for early career researchers or other mid-career researchers interested in developing competence in the planning\, design\, and execution of randomized clinical trials among persons with Alzheimer’s Disease or Related Dementias (ADRD) and their caregivers. The 10-month-long Program includes a combination of virtual small group sessions and a 5-day in-person Institute where learners will work together to design a trial and learners will develop their own grant application addressing ADRD. The research training team includes a diverse group of faculty members who are dedicated to developing investigators in dementia palliative care clinical trials research. \nThe Institute is scheduled for October 2 – 6\, 2023 in Chapel Hill\, North Carolina. It is critical that the candidate be able to attend the Institute in its entirety. To be eligible\, participants must be US citizens\, have a doctoral-level degree\, and be at least two years from their terminal degree with a demonstrated commitment to geriatric palliative care or dementia research. International applicants are not eligible for this opportunity. \nApplications are due May 15\, 2023. Complete this form to apply for the program.
