January 10, 2018: NCI Announces Training Institute in Dissemination and Implementation Research in Cancer

The National Cancer Institute’s Division of Cancer Control & Population Sciences is accepting applications for a Training Institute in Dissemination and Implementation Research in Cancer (TIDIRC). Designed for investigators at all levels who conduct dissemination and implementation research in cancer control, the training institute will consist of a 4-month online course and a 2-day in-person training.

There are no costs associated with the training institute, though applicants who are accepted into the program must cover travel-related expenses for the in-person meeting in Bethesda, Maryland.

This cancer-focused training program is adapted from a broader curriculum offered in previous years, the Training Institute in Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health (TIDIRH). Read an article in Implementation Science about the development of the program: “The U.S. Training Institute for Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health.”

The application window for the training institute will close on February 9, 2018. Read the announcement and submit an application: https://cancercontrol.cancer.gov/IS/training-education/tidirc/index.html.
