Scaling What Works: Advancing Implementation Science for Global Cancer Prevention and Control
This NCI led session at London Global Cancer Week 2025 will explore the vital role of implementation science in accelerating progress in global cancer prevention and control. As cancer continues to disproportionately affect low-resource communities in the U.S. and around the world, there is an urgent need not only for effective interventions but also for practical strategies to scale and sustain them. This session will spotlight how implementation science can bridge the gap between research and real-world practice by integrating participatory methods, adapting to diverse local contexts, and fostering meaningful partnerships between researchers, policymakers, and community stakeholders.
