IdeaFest 2012
IdeaFest 2012 is a university wide initiative designed to celebrate research, scholarship and creativity throughout the University of Victoria. In celebration of IdeaFest, the School of Nursing is hosting Dr. Carole Estabrooks as guest speaker as part of our Research Conversation series.
Join us:
March 7, 2012, 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
UVic Human and Social Development (HSD) Building, Room A451
This event is free and open to all members of the UVic Community (students included). Seating is limited.
Dr. Estabrooks is Professor, Faculty of Nursing, at the University of Alberta and a Canada Research Chair in Knowledge Translation. She has been a fellow in the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences since 2007 and is recently elected to the American Academy of Nursing. She leads the Knowledge Utilization Studies Program (KUSP) at the University of Alberta.
Dr. Estabrooks' applied health services research program focuses on knowledge translation in the health sciences. She studies the influence of organizations on the research implementation behaviour of health care providers and the effects of that research implementation (knowledge translation) on quality of care, quality of life/quality of end of life and quality of work life outcomes. In her presentation, Carole will focus on her applied program of knowledge translation research in residential long term care, both doing and integrating KT Science. Carole will also share her own experiences, insights and examples of issues and challenges in developing programs of research and knowledge translation.
