The UB Faculty Scholar Program in Implementation Science is an institutional research career development (K12) program funded by NHLBI (K12HL138052). 

It supports mentored research and career development for faculty scholars in dissemination and implementation (D&I) research to address the complex process of bridging research and practice in real-world settings.

The award provides up to $100,000 in salary and $30,000 in research support annually to each scholar.

What good are medical innovations if they never reach patients?
