Course Description: This introductory course covers three approaches to stakeholder and community engagement in health
The Older Veteran Engagement Team –An Example of the Value of Engaging Older Adults in Research is intended to complement the Community-Engaged Research (CEnR) with Diverse Older Adult module. This module provides a case example of the application of the 5Ts framework for inclusion of older adults in research and an equally illustrative case example of the application of the 5Ms framework in
It is with great pleasure that the Miami Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) announces that Olveen Carrasquillo, M.D, M.P.H., and Erin Kobetz, Ph.D., M.P.H., will join Director Ralph Sacco, M.D., M.S. and its leadership team as new co-directors. The Miami CTSI’s leadership team will evolve into a multiple principal investigator model with these three distinguished leaders.
The dissemination of the I-Corps@NCATS program has accelerated the development and commercialization of breakthrough innovations in medical research across U. Miami and the CTSA partner hubs. Taking the lessons from the “I-Corps at the CTSA Train-The-Trainer pilot initiative” in 2017, nine participants developed the I-Corps@NCATS program with support from a CTSA Administrative Supplement to
True innovation depends on identifying the right problem to solve. To streamline the process of identifying opportunities for innovation, FastTraCS has developed a virtual, scalable approach to rapidly identifying impactful clinical problems—creating a foundation for unmet need definition, validation and new product development. This approach eliminates the need for upfront clinical shadowing/
What is the real-world impact of our network? That is a question the Clinical and Translational Science Awards Program has been trying to answer since its inception. Over the past four years, the Center for Leading Innovation and Collaboration has pitched in on that effort, knitting together several tried and trusted evaluation methods to develop a new Stakeholder-Engaged Research Impact

Learn the benefits, strategies, and methods at Stakeholder Engagement in Patient-Centered Comparative Effectiveness Research. This seminar, taught by Thomas Concannon, PhD, Tufts CTSI’s Director of Stakeholder and Community Engagement and Assistant Director of Comparative Effectiveness Research, will review previous
When you spend most of your research in a lab, the idea of engaging stakeholders in research may not seem tangible or practical. In this course, Thomas Concannon, PhD, Co-Director of Tufts CTSI Stakeholder and Community Engagement, interviews Jonathan Garlick, DDS, PhD, Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, whose journey of stakeholder engagement has transformed his stem cell research. Learn
Learn how to make your research patient-centered, and find out how engagement fits into your research process at Preparing for Patient-Centered and Stakeholder-Engaged Research. Thomas Concannon, PhD, Tufts CTSI’s Co-Director of Stakeholder and Community Engagement, will share his expertise and explain several models for engaging with stakeholders.
This lecture provides researchers with practical guidance for carrying out and evaluating multi-stakeholder engaged research projects. The material presented can assist researchers to consider more systematically which stakeholder groups to involve, in what study roles, and by what modes of engagement. By documenting how stakeholders are paired up with specific roles, the matrix also provides a
Emily Zimmerman, Ph.D., M.S., MPH, wrote the book on community engaged research – literally. Released in March, “Researching Health Together: Engaging Patients and Stakeholders, From Topic Identification to Policy Change” features a collection of experiences from researchers across the country, sharing how and why their projects are designed to engage the community. The Wright Center sat down with
Summary: Stakeholder engagement can play an important role in increasing public trust and the understanding of scientific research and its impact. Frameworks for stakeholder identification exist, but these frameworks may not apply well to basic science and early stage translational research. Methods: Four Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) hubs led six focus groups and two semi
The University of Florida CTSI has created an open-access online curriculum to educate community stakeholders in the basic principles of clinical research. The curriculum covers the topics of research ethics, types of research studies, informed consent, stakeholder engagement, cultural diversity, and big data, among other topics.
