 Knowledge Translation in Health Research What is Knowledge Translation? The Canadian Institute of Health Research defines knowledge translation as: “A dynamic and iterative process that includes synthesis, dissemination, exchange and ethically-sound application of knowledge to improve the health of Canadians, provide more effective health services and products and strengthen the health care system. This process takes place within a complex system of interactions between researchers and knowledge users which may vary in intensity, complexity and level of engagement depending on the nature of the research and the findings as well as the needs of the particular knowledge user (Graham, 2010).”   What is CHI? The George and Fay Yee Centre for Healthcare Innovation (CHI) is committed to ensuring that the latest research and evidence are translated into improved patient outcomes, enhanced patient experiences and improved access to care for Manitobans. CHI is home to experts and leaders from multiple disciplines in academia and practice. What is Knowledge Translation at CHI? Our KT team helps to close the know-do gap in health research by advancing the science of KT and patient engagement through the understanding of KT methods and interventions. We offer the following services and expertise:  Guidance and support for integrating evidence-based KT interventions to change health-care practice and policy  Advice for strategies to facilitate the involvement of patients and members of the public throughout the research process  Guidance and development of KT-related dissemination strategies and multimedia tools such as videos, infographics, education materials and op-eds  Consultation on integrated KT and end of grant KT plans including budget and evaluation  Consultation on how to apply KT theories and frameworks to guide your research project
