The 14th Annual Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation in Health (Science of D&I Conference) aims to bridge the gap between research, policy, and practice in health and healthcare settings by bringing forth new challenges, research, and priorities for discussion to spur growth and progress in the field. RTI International will be presenting during several sessions at the Science of D&I Conference, taking place December 14 – 16.
This year’s theme is “Broadening Horizons for Impact: Incorporating Multisectoral Approaches into D&I Science,” highlighting the importance of broad perspectives as the science around health and healthcare are explored. Optimizing medicine will involve critically evaluating evidence-based measures of impact, considering multiple contexts, backgrounds, and influences.
View the schedule of RTI sessions below, and visit us at our virtual booth during the event.
