LISTOS for Cancer Control (Leveraging Implementation Science To Operationalize Strategies for Cancer Control) is a collaborative research center that aims to advance global implementation science in cancer control in Mexico and Latin America. The goal of this center is to bolster research capacity for implementation science and to facilitate research that identifies, comprehends, and overcomes obstacles to the adoption, adaptation, integration, dissemination, and sustainability of evidence-based cancer control interventions in low- and middle-income countries.
The Multiple Sclerosis Implementation Network (MSIN) is a practice-based research network and learning collaborative of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) researchers and clinicians. The goal of the network, which includes partners at UT Austin Dell Medical School, the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America (MSAA), and Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, is to advance MS research and care across the United States.
The goal of this project is to support the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) in identifying barriers and facilitators to implementation of Consensus Treatment Plans (CTPs) across various health care settings. Phase one of this project involves qualitative research with providers and other stakeholders towards the development of a comprehensive research plan related to the implementation of CTPs. The next phase of activities will use Implementation Mapping to develop and test implementation strategies to increase adoption and use of CTPs in CARRA registry sites.
Salud en Mis Manos (SEMM) is an evidence-based community health worker (CHW) delivered breast and cervical (B&C) education and navigation program for vulnerable Latinas. To support safety-net clinic implementation and maintenance of SEMM, we used Implementation Mapping (ImpM) to develop the SEMM-Dissemination and Implementation Assistance (SEMM-DIA) implementation strategy. SEMM-DIA is an implementation support system that includes a set of implementation strategies to facilitate program implementation and maintenance.
The goal of this effort is to improve the healthcare system's ability to identify patients at risk for developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Specifically, this includes identifying and developing an intervention for patient populations who have either pre-diabetes or uncontrolled hypertension, treatment, and management of patients with diabetes, heart disease, and associated risk factors.
The overall goal of this program is to increase Colorectal Cancer Screening (CRCS) through the adoption, implementation, and sustainability of evidence-based interventions (EBIs) in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) to ultimately reduce CRC (Colorectal Cancer) and CRC-related health disparities among African Americans and Hispanics in both rural and urban settings in Texas.
