Description:

Registration required.

Dr. Ackermann is Professor of Medicine and Medical Social Sciences at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. Since 2002, his group has conducted research collaboratively with health system and community leaders and stakeholders, with an eye on improving health and health equity by adapting and implementing evidence-based interventions in ways that can be sustained locally and replicated after the research is completed. Dr. Ackermann is also interested in rigorous research designs that simultaneously study the population reach and effectiveness of different implementation strategies. His talk, titled Pragmatic Research Designs: A Focus on Replicable Intervention Strategies and Enhancing the Generalizability of Findings, will share examples from this work and how pragmatic research designs can accelerate and improve policy impact.
