Role: Principal Investigator Grant Number: #57398 Funding Period: 07/01/2006 06/30/2009 Funding Organization: Robert Wood Johnson Foundation The major goals of this project are to compare the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of a two implementation models for translating research into practice for diabetes prevention. Practices are randomized to a either a standard, practice-centered knowledge translation model versus the same approach PLUS explicit involvement by a leading community agency to improve linkages and information feedback about use of community physical activity and weight management resources to achieve modest weight loss. Role: Principal Investigator Grant Number: R34 DK70702-S01 Funding Period: 05/15/2005 10/30/2008 Funding Organization: NIH/NIDDK Translating the DPP into the community: The YMCA Model The major goals of this project are to collect essential pilot data to design a larger randomized trial to evaluate the effectiveness and sustainability of a group-based adaptation of the Diabetes Prevention Program lifestyle intervention in community settings. Role: Principal Investigator Grant Number: U58-CCU523526-01 Funding Period: 02/01/2004 1/31/2010 Funding Organization: National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention & Health Promotion Translational Research Centers for Diabetes Control within Managed-Care (TRIAD II) is: (1) a continued multi-center longitudinal cohort study of the factors affecting care quality and outcomes for adults with diabetes in the U.S., and (2) a mechanism to support the evaluation of efforts to improve diabetes prevention and care for adult patients in varied managed care settings. Role: Co-Principal Investigator Grant Number: Contract AHRQ-290-02-0008 Modification #29 Funding Period: 09/16/2004 01/15/2009 Funding Organization: Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality Practice-based Research Networks and The Provision of Primary Care to the Underserved and The Chronically Ill.
