The C-DIAS Fellowship in Addiction Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) Science is designed for early or mid-career individuals who have a goal of using rigorous methods in D&I science to improve public access to high-quality addiction treatment. The 2023-2024 inaugural cohort consists of seven promising individuals whose research projects span a variety of topics including culturally-adapted…

This protocol paper describes a stagewise implementation-to-target (stepped “care” type) approach to implement MOUD whereby organizations engage in increasingly intensive implementation strategies as needed.

Written by members of the C-DIAS team, this paper assessed how implementation research has been used in the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) efforts to address the opioid and stimulant epidemics.

C-DIAS presented two posters at the 15th Annual Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation in Health. One poster studied participant engagement in implementation trials, and the other described a micro-costing approach to estimating the total cost to implement an evidence-based practice.
