SUMMARY:Career Development Award Proposals Due @ 5pm
DESCRIPTION:Program Overview and Rationale\nThe National Institute on Aging (NIA) Imbedded Pragmatic Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Dementias (AD/ADRD) Clinical Trials (IMPACT) Collaboratory (U54AG063546) was established in 2019 to build the nation’s capacity to conduct embedded pragmatic clinical trials of non-pharmacologic interventions within healthcare systems (HCS) to improve the care of people living with AD/ADRD and their care partners. \nConducting ePCTs in AD/ADRD within HCS requires unique research skills\, yet the field is relatively nascent. The number of investigators capable of rigorously designing and executing ePCTs in partnership with HCS and other key stakeholders remains limited\, and those that have intersecting expertise in AD/ADRD populations are even fewer. Thus\, a critical objective of the IMPACT Collaboratory is to build the nation’s capacity to conduct impactful ePCTs in AD/ADRD by training a workforce of investigators prepared to carry on this work well into the future. \nFunding Opportunity Description\nThe IMPACT Collaboratory funds up to four career development awards (CDAs) annually. These CDAs seek to support the development of early-stage MD\, PhD\, or equivalent researchers who seek careers conducting ePCTs for people living with AD/ADRD and their care partners. The IMPACT Collaboratory prioritizes applications that address dementia care for people of all backgrounds and promote health equity. \nCDA applicants must: \n\nBe no more than 7 years out of their post-doctoral training program at the time of application. With prior approval\, rare exceptions may be made for investigators more than 7 years from postdoctoral training who are seeking to change their career path to pursue research on ePCTs among PLWD.\nDemonstrate a commitment to pursuing a career in conducting ePCTs for PLWD and their care partners. This is best demonstrated by current or prior training\, clinical work\, publications\, or research projects focused on improving care for PLWD and their care partners.\nDemonstrate basic training (post-graduate) in fundamental clinical research methods and have completed training in the ethical conduct of clinical research.\nProvide evidence of prior research productivity in seeking to improve ou tcomes of PLWD.\nIdentify a mentoring team that includes expertise in: (a) conducting ePCTs for PLWD and their care partners; (b) organizational change within healthcare systems; and (c) professional development of clinical researchers.\nDescribe a two-year training plan in collaboration with their mentoring team focused on training in the conduct of ePCTs for PLWD and their care partners.\nPropose a research project focused on: (a) building competency and experience in ePCTs among PLWD; and (b) generating preliminary\, publishable data that will build a foundation for ongoing research focusing on ePCTs for PLWD. Projects may employ a variety of research methods\, such as primary or secondary data analysis\, intervention development\, outcome measure development\, feasibility of implementation\, pilot ePCTs\, or qualitative methods.\nExceptional candidates with also demonstrate access to\, and collaboration with\, organizational leadership within a targeted HCS. This may be demonstrated by a current or planned relationship with health system leadership at the site where the research will be conducted or other evidence of engagement with heath system leadership.\nAttend the annual 2-day IMPACT Collaboratory national Training Workshop and Retreat with your mentor in both years of the CDA\, which will be held in scheduled for April 2022. When available\, these dates can be found at https://impactcollaboratory.org/cda/.\nParticipate in quarterly mentoring meetings with one or more representatives from the IMPACT Collaboratory Core Groups and Teams in addition to regular meetings with their local mentor(s).\n\nRead full details on the Career Development Award Program here: https://impactcollaboratory.org/cda/

SUMMARY:Pragmatic Trials in Long-Term Care: A Consensus Conference
DESCRIPTION:Virtually | March 10\, 2021 | 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM EST | funded by the National Institute of Aging and led by editors of three leading geriatrics journals — JAMDA (The Journal of Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine)\, JAGS (The Journal of the American Geriatrics Society)\, and Geriatric Nursing – will identify priorities and best practices for pragmatic trials in long-term care\, with a focus on care for persons with dementia. \nExperts across the globe agree that we are at a tipping point to improve systems of long-term care for older adults; they also agree that pragmatic trials are the most promising strategy toward that end. However\, the focus of such trials\, the best methods with which to conduct them\, how best to share results\, and how best to promote uptake of evidence-proven practices\, are far from clear. \nSpeakers include internationally renowned research experts\, directors of national long-term care organizations\, and leaders of national associations and societies. IMPACT Member Participants include Joe Gaugler\, PhD\, David Gifford\, MD\, MPH\, Laura Hanson\, MD\, MPH\, Vince Mor\, PhD\, Kathleen Unroe\, MD\, MHA\, Sheryl Zimmerman\, PhD. \nTarget Audience: This conference is intended for providers\, researchers\, and policy makers who aim to promote better care in nursing homes\, assisted living communities\, and other residential settings that serve older adults. \nFor more details and registration\, visit: https://www.eventscribe.net/2021/PALTC21/aaStatic.asp?SFP=WUtSUUxCQk1ANjQ2Nw

SUMMARY:IMPACT Grand Rounds: Implementation Outcomes: Their Role in Treatment Success
DESCRIPTION:Enola Proctor\, PhD\, Shanti K. Khinduka distinguished professor emeritus at Washington University in St. Louis will present on “Implementation Outcomes: Their Role in Treatment Success.” \nDr. Proctor’s research is motivated by the question\, how do we ensure that people receive the very best possible care?  She has studied this question in a variety of social work\, public health\, and health care settings\, ranging from hospitals to community agencies. She has contributed to the intellectual capital for the rapidly growing field of dissemination and implementation science\, leading teams to distinguish\, clearly define\, develop taxonomies\, and stimulate more systematic work to advance the conceptual\, linguistic\, and methodological clarity in the field.  Her research has been funded by the NIA\, and AHRQ\, and by the NIMH for 26 consecutive years.  She directs the Implementation Research Institute\, a training program in implementation science funded by the National Institute for Mental Health.  She led the establishment of several university-wide centers and cores in implementation science\, including the Center for Dissemination and Implementation for the Washington University Institute for Public Health and the Dissemination and Implementation Research Core for Washington University’s CTSA program.  Her awards include Washington University’s Arthur Compton Holly Distinguished Faculty Award\, the Society for Social Work and Research’s Distinguished Research Award\, and the American Public Health Association Stephen M. Banks Award for Outstanding Mentoring in mental health services. \nEvent Details:\nThursday\, November 19\, 2020\n12:00 – 1:00 pm ET \nZoom Details:\nJoin from PC\, Mac\, iOS or Android: https://hebrewseniorlife.zoom.us/j/97344810673\nDial-In: +1 312 626 6799 (US Toll) or +1 470 250 9358 (US Toll)\nMeeting ID: 973 4481 0673 \nDownload announcement.
