Implementation of Findings from PCORI’s Major Research Investments PFA
This PFA seeks to fund meaningful implementation projects that promote the uptake of peer-reviewed findings from specific, high-priority PCORI initiatives—in the context of the body of related evidence—and make these findings more actionable and accessible to patients, clinicians, or other targeted decision makers and healthcare stakeholders at the point of care or in other decision settings. This is an Open Competition funding opportunity that seeks to draw on the expertise, creativity, and capacity of a broad applicant pool, including implementation experts and diverse stakeholder partners. Each release of this PFA will identify selected published, peer-reviewed patient-centered clinical comparative effectiveness research (CER) evidence as the focus for implementation.
