Consortium for Implementation Science Forum: Connecting Implementation Science and Data Modernization

Event Registration

Date

November 29, 2021 01:00PM - 03:00PM US/Eastern

Data modernization is the implementation of systems and processes that enhance our ability to share and integrate data across systems, often using interoperability standards. A more modern data system across public health and health care would support the ability to act on accurate data and promote more timely and evidence-based decision making.  Implementation science examines the process and outcomes associated with implementing evidence-based interventions into practice, including in both clinical and community settings.  It is critical to ensuring the success of data modernization initiatives, by generating evidence about the facilitators and barriers associated with implementation and measurement of standardized clinical and public health data systems.

Join RTI virtually from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm Eastern on November 29th for a discussion with Dr. Melissa McPheeters (RTI International), Dr. Jessie Tenenbaum (North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services), Dr. Anne Sales (University of Missouri), and Dr. David Clark (National Institutes of Health, National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health) to discuss connections between data modernization and implementation science. This event is sponsored by the Consortium for Implementation Science, a joint endeavor of RTI International, UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health, and Duke University.  

Melissa McPheeters, PhD, MPH

Melissa McPheeters, PhD, MPH, a Senior Scientist in the Translational Health Sciences Division, is an epidemiologist and public health informatician with more than two decades of experience building multidisciplinary teams to address complex problems across health and public health. Dr. McPheeters is an expert in identifying, assessing, and synthesizing evidence for public health and health care, and in the processes by which data from across the health care system and public health can be used to address emerging health threats. Dr. McPheeters directed the AHRQ-funded Evidence-based Practice Center at Vanderbilt for a decade before serving as the director of the Tennessee Department of Health Office of Informatics and Analytics. Her recent work has focused on building and leading new informatics initiatives in both public health and health care, with particular emphasis on the appropriate collection, integration and use of complex data across health care and public health systems to track and respond to health issues.

Jessie Tenenbaum

Jessie Tenenbaum, PhD

Jessie Tenenbaum, PhD, is the Chief Data Officer (CDO) for North Carolina's Department of Health and Human Services. In this role, Dr. Tenenbaum is responsible for the development and oversight of departmental data governance and strategy to enable data-driven policy for improving the health and well-being of North Carolinians. Dr. Tenenbaum is also a faculty member in Duke University's Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics.  Nationally, Dr. Tenenbaum has served as Associate Editor for the Journal of Biomedical Informatics and as an elected member of the Board of Directors for the American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA). She currently serves on the Board of Scientific Counselors for the National Library of Medicine.

Anne Sales

Anne Sales, PhD, RN

Anne Sales is a nurse and Professor in the Sinclair School of Nursing and the Department of Family and Community Medicine in the School of Medicine at the University of Missouri (Columbia). She is also a Research Scientist at the Center for Clinical Management Research at the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System.

Her training is in sociology, health economics, econometrics, and general health services research.  Her work involves theory-based design of implementation interventions, including: understanding how feedback reports affect provider behavior and through behavior change have an impact on patient outcomes; the role of social networks in implementation interventions; and effective implementation methods using electronic health records and digital interventions. She has completed over 40 funded research projects, including a recently concluded VA Quality Enhancement Research Initiative Program focused on implementing goals of care conversations in VA long term care settings. She is a founding co-Editor-in-Chief of Implementation Science Communications.

David Clark

David Clark, DrPH

Dr. David Clark has been a program officer in the Clinical Research Branch in the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health for the past 4 years and will soon be transitioning to become the chief of the Implementation Science Branch at NHLBI. At the NCCIH David has maintained a portfolio of grants focusing on health services research including implementation science and pain management including helping to lead the NIH-VA-DoD Pain Management Collaboratory. He is also very involved with the Trans-NIH HEAL program [Helping End Addiction Long-term] as a scientific advisor to the director and co-chair of the Translation of Research to Practice for Opioid Addiction work group. Prior to joining the NCCIH, Dr. Clark had an extensive work history in oral health research with 8 years as a program officer at the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research and in the substance abuse field including 4 years of research at the University of Kentucky Center on Drug and Alcohol Research, 13 years of direct patient care at the VA Medical Center San Diego Alcohol & Drug Treatment Program, and 1 year at National Institute on Drug Abuse in the Division of Epidemiology, Services and Prevention Research. Dr. Clark received his DrPH in epidemiology from the University of Kentucky and his MPH in health services administration from San Diego State University.
