The Summer Research Institute on Developing Behavioral Interventions, offered by the Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing Center for Innovative Care in Aging, is designed to help participants develop testable interventions that have the potential for implementation in practice environments and advance appropriate trial designs.
Through discussions of their intervention and study ideas with nationally recognized experts, engaging in small group consultation, and listening to state-of-the-science lectures, Summer Research Institute participants will gain hands-on practical knowledge and skills to advance their respective intervention studies.
Objectives
Upon completing the program, participants will be able to:
- Understand the continuum of intervention research from efficacy to implementation and sustainability
- Identify strategies for enhancing and measuring treatment fidelity
- Implement different strategies for advancing an intervention protocol
- Examine how to involve community and practice-based partners
- Advance a trial design including measurement, fidelity, and economic models
- Write a grant proposing a randomized trial or test of an intervention
Who Should Attend
Junior faculty, post-doctoral students, researchers, or investigators with limited experience in health-related behavioral intervention research who are seeking to develop and advance a particular intervention to enhance the health and well-being of older adults, their family members, or communities.
