Seminar

Presented by Keith Cheng, MD, PhD All multicellular organisms are comprised of cells and extracellular components that possess theoretically quantifiable, three-dimensional features and relationships organized into tissues, organs, and organ systems. Physiological and disease states are marked by physical change on the micron scale that in turn requires submicron pixel resolutions. To digitally

All are invited to hear the presentation, “How Are UAMS Postdoctoral Fellows Utilizing the TRI Health Sciences Innovation and Entrepreneurship Training Program?” Tuesday, March 14, 4 – 5 p.m. via Zoom.

In this seminar, Elizabeth C. Long, PhD, Assistant Research Professor and Director of Research and Evaluation with the Evidence-to-Impact Collaboration, will describe the pilot of an enhanced research dissemination approach and the results from three experiments testing strategies for increasing the reach of research to state-level policymakers. In these experiments, rapid-cycle randomized

Implementation science seeks to improve the adoption, delivery, and sustainment of evidence-based interventions in healthcare and community settings. There is a wide range study designs now being used to evaluate implementation science projects, including traditional randomized and nonrandomized designs. There are other designs, including hybrid designs that combine effectiveness and

Is there a reproducibility crisis in science? What is the difference between "reproducibility" and "replicability"? What are questionable research practices (QRPs)? How prevalent and serious are they? And why are some advocating for changes in how statistical analysis is carried out and reported on (while others are pushing back)? The current landscape of scientific practice can appear to be in

Healthcare delivery is becoming an increasingly larger share of the economy in rural Pennsylvania. Hospitals, physician offices, and retail pharmacies represent only one slice of the economic contributions of health care. In coming years, the importance of health care delivery will increase as rural Pennsylvanians continue to age in place and the demand for health care outpaces supply. This

In this seminar, Paul Simon, MD, MPH, will describe how policy development, implementation, and evaluation are incorporated into the work of a large metropolitan health department and the importance of policy interventions in improving population health and reducing health inequities. He will then share his perspectives on how policy research can inform this work and best add value.
