A Chinese translation of the third edition of “Dissemination and Implementation Research in Health: Translating Science to Practice,” has been published. The book is the definitive guide to the rapidly growing field of dissemination and implementation (D&I) science, which aims to turn research findings into meaningful changes that promote public health.
“The core principle of D&I — translating evidence-based knowledge into practice through scientifically guided approaches — needs to be more widely recognized and adopted by researchers, policymakers and practitioners,” said Shenyang Guo, PhD, the Frank J. Bruno Distinguished Professor of Social Work Research at Washington University in St. Louis’ Brown School, and the lead translator. Guo led a team of six Chinese scholars through a painstaking, monthslong translation process.
“This Chinese edition represents one more step toward disseminating the important concepts, theories, and methods of D&I science to a broader global audience,” he said.
The book was edited by , PhD, the Steven H. and Susan U. Lipstein Distinguished Professor at the Andrew M. and Jane M. Bursky School of Public Health at Washington University in St. Louis; , MD, DrPH, the Niess-Gain Professor of Surgery and the director of the Division of Public Health Sciences at WashU Medicine, and a member of the Bursky Public Health secondary faculty; and Enola Proctor, PhD, the Shanti K. Khinduka Distinguished Professor Emerita at 91Ƭ.
The Chinese edition has been published by China Social Sciences Press, one of China’s leading academic publishers.
