The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network (CPCRN): Advancing public health and implementation science
A partir de l'analyse des rapports annuels publiés entre 2014 et 2019 par les différents centres du réseau américain de recherche et de lutte contre les cancers "The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network", cette étude identifie les différentes actions menées puis examine leur lien avec les domaines couverts par les "Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's"
The Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network (CPCRN) is one of the thematic networks of the United States' Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Prevention Research Centers. Network members are academic research centers in the United States who collaborate with public health and community partners to accelerate the use of evidence-based interventions in communities to reduce the burden of cancer, especially among underserved populations. CPCRN studies include geographically dispersed populations, cross-institution partnerships, and opportunities for collaborative learning across network centers. Since its inception in 2002, CPCRN has worked to translate research on community-based intervention strategies into practice to improve cancer screening and reduce cancer risk. This commentary describes CPCRN's role in contributing to public health and the field of dissemination and implementation science. In addition, CDC and the National Cancer Institute describe how their joint support of the network contributes to each organization's goals and missions.
