Overview
The Implementation Science Seminar Series is an interactive seminar (via Zoom) held on the second Friday of every month from 12-1 pm during the academic year. Join us to learn about the four pillars of the Dissemination and Implementation field: implementation theory, implementation methods, implementation strategies, and implementation laboratories. The series will feature national luminaries in implementation science, highlight innovative research at UW-Madison, and explore campus resources to support D&I research. Register here for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Implementation Science & Community Health Outcomes (ISCHO) Certificate
The ISCHO certificate program has a seminar requirement of 1-2 credits and the Implementation Science Seminar Series is one of the options for fulfilling this seminar requirement. This certificate addresses the gap between basic research discoveries and their application in clinical and public health practice. Such research requires engagement among community members, organizations, clinicians, and researchers and draws on distinct skills. Learn more about the ISCHO Certificate.
