This November, SHOW joined the Institute for Clinical and Translational Research’s Community-Academic Partnership program as an affiliate member. The ICTR Community-Academic Partnerships program seeks to connect UW researchers, community organizations, and community clinicians who have shared interests in community-engaged research in Wisconsin. CAP programs and affiliate programs are available for new collaborations, building on the strengths of both community and academic partners to help effectively translate research findings into practice.
SHOW is excited to join the ICTR-CAP program as an affiliate member. We have been working hard this past year to establish community partnerships in diverse communities throughout Milwaukee and are excited to collaborate with researchers looking to do the same. For more information on the ICTR-CAP program, visit their website at https://ictr.wisc.edu/community-academic-research/
The ICTR-CAP program has multiple pilot grant opportunities open until January 15th, 2020 for the following topic areas:
- Collaborative Health Equity Research
- Clinical & Community Outcomes Research
- Stakeholder & Patient Engaged Research
- Dissemination & Implementation Research
One of the requirements is to work with an affiliate member, and SHOW is a great resource for supporting your applications!
