4th UK Implementation Science Research Conference
Following the success of last year's virtual conference, this year we will hold the annual implementation science research conference online.
Following the success of last year's virtual conference, this year we will hold the annual implementation science research conference online.
Now in its fourth year, the 2021 conference will bring together online researchers, policymakers, clinicians, practitioners and service users from around the world.
Together we will share the best ways to implement evidence-based health and social care research within services and systems to improve health and care outcomes.
Smooth online delivery, great mix of science and practice, great global representation
This year's conference theme is 'Supporting the pandemic response? Implementation science in the time of Covid-19'. Under this theme, we will showcase implementation research that has directly informed the Covid-19 pandemic response as well as work that is more broadly relevant – for example, research that is supporting long-term changes in practice or public health policy.
We aim to be self-critical of the science – asking not only how implementation science has helped the pandemic response, but also how it may have done more or what it may have done differently. What lessons can we take from this in developing the field in the future?
Read this editorial published in Implementation Science, which explores some of these issues.

Well organised given the complexity with online and times zones. Team very supportive. Speakers great quality! Great engagement during the sessions too. Will definitely attend even if we are still via Zoom in 2021!
I was impressed by the speakers and quality of the talks, multitude of resources, posters, and the organisation of the conference
