Grant: Knowledge Translation Supplement
Queen's University (Kingston, Ontario)
$39,700.00
Video Online KT - If I Had Macular Degeneration
FY 2008-09
Summary
We plan to create 2 short videos in the content area of Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) to translate research that was pursued on my CIHR New Investigator Award. The first video is aimed at AMD patients and emphasizes when to seek medical attention, the importance of taking vitamins to prevent further deterioration and the latest treatments available for wet AMD. All of these issues were key to my research agenda funded by my CIHR Award. The second video is aimed at Health Policy Makers and will disseminate the message of the profound negative impact of AMD on patients' Health-related Quality of Life and the cost-effectiveness of treatments for AMD. Both of these messages were also active areas of research that were funded by my Award, and ones that have led to highly-cited publications that appear in the peer-reviewed literature. The video will be disseminated online through Insidermedicine, a physician-led News and Knowledge Translation organization which has partnerships with Google News, iTunes and Medline Plus. Steps that will be involved in this grant include the following: video scripting, medical writing, filming (including "b-roll") graphics design and 3-D animation, video editing, video compression, code programming, computer networking, search engine optimization, online message propagation, online analytics, and online surveying.
