by Elissa Faro, PhD ; Gemmae Fix, PhD ; Heather Reisinger, PhD ; Aaron Seaman, PhD ; Peter Taber, MSCI, PhD
Seminar date: 7/11/2024

Description: Context is essential to anthropological practice and fundamental to implementation research, yet the goals of anthropology and how its practice to understand context informs larger research projects are often not explicitly stated. We’ll review the findings of our recently published scoping review in Implementation Science and reflect on the process of reflexively and iteratively exploring how, why, and by whom anthropological practice is represented in the implementation literature. We’ll discuss considerations for researchers trained in diverse traditions thinking through their theoretical and methodological contributions to the interdisciplinary field of implementation science.
