What is Implementation Science at Brown Health (ISBH)?
Implementation Science at Brown Health (ISBH) is a new initiative supporting clinicians, researchers, and leaders at Brown University Health (BUH) and Brown Health Medical Group (BHMG) in applying implementation science to enhance care delivery, accelerate research translation, and promote innovation in clinical settings. Implementation science is the study of methods to promote the systematic uptake of research findings and evidence-based practices into routine care.
Led by the BRIDGE Program in the Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, ISBH provides accessible, actionable resources for anyone interested in embedding evidence-based practices into routine care.
