Grant: Planning and Dissemination Grant - Institute Community Support

This application requests funding for a two-day meeting of various resuscitation science stakeholders to discuss how to better prioritize, disseminate and implement the high quality resuscitation research being conducted in Canada. The meeting, Resuscitation in Motion 2018 (RiM 2018), will be hosted by the University of Toronto Collaborative Program in Resuscitation Sciences (CPRS). Attendees will include experts in research and graduate training, industry, allied health professions and patient representatives and advocates, as well as decision and policy makers from government and health services systems. The RiM 2018 meeting will focus specifically on exchange of ideas amongst stakeholders, which will result in the derivation of policy, and comprehensive dissemination and implementation strategies. This will be the first time we will actively engage decision and policy makers directly in the proceedings. We will draw on their expertise, their perspectives and their contexts, to frame a more complete picture of where we should be focusing our scientific enquiry and how we can better translate the science to ensure impactful, long-term outcomes that inform practice, clinical care, policy and decision making.
