Research: Besides funding, knowledge translation and exchange is a must!
Description
In this #ArthritisAtHome, we are sharing the #CRArthritis interview with Dr. Janet Pope, Professor of Medicine in the Division of Rheumatology at the University of Western Ontario and Division Head in Rheumatology at St. Joseph’s Health Centre. Dr. Pope is a leading international researcher in scleroderma, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, focusing in areas such as outcome measurements, clinical trials, and disease manifestations.
In this interview, Dr. Pope discusses with ACE’s Kelly Lendvoy about her presentation at the annual scientific meeting titled “Research Doesn’t End with the Funding, Knowledge Dissemination is a Must!” She highlights the critical role of knowledge translation and exchange in ensuring that research findings reach and benefit patients, health care providers, and policy makers. She goes on to define knowledge translation exchange and describe how we can bridge the gap between research and understanding its relevance and real-world application, particularly as it relates to arthritis patients and patient groups.
