Conference of the Swiss Implementation Science Network (IMPACT) online

In Switzerland this is an exciting time of growth and focus on Implementation Science.

A number of implementation science projects are now funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. In December of 2019, to further strengthen and develop implementation science’s capacity here, the Swiss Implementation Science Network (IMPACT) was launched.

The central goals of IMPACT are to:

1. Showcase implementation science projects in health care conducted by Swiss researchers and institutions;
2. Provide networking opportunities for Switzerland’s implementation science researchers and other interested stakeholders;
3. Provide training opportunities in implementation science; and
4. Leverage funding options for implementation science in Switzerland.

To celebrate this exciting and timely initiative, we are organizing the first official conference of the Swiss Implementation Science Network (IMPACT). The opening event will be held as a virtual meeting on January 22, 2021, from 09.00 – 12.00.

Following the opening event, a series of five virtual masterclass lectures will be offered. The sessions will take place on January 27, February 03, 10, and 17 and March 03, 2021. All will run from 16.30 to 18.00.

The full program can be found here.

We warmly welcome you to participate in the conference and any of the masterclass events.
