Evidera’s Patient-Centered Research (PCR) group combines an outstanding portfolio of scientific fields including psychometrics, implementation science, health sciences and psychology. Our dedicated team encompasses individuals with strong analytical and problem-solving skills and a passion for quantitative research. Within PCR, our Implementation Science (IS) Pillar studies the methods used to promote the integration of research findings and evidence into healthcare policy and practice. In the context of pharmaceutical development and real-world clinical care, IS and evidence-based practices include, for example, new therapeutic regimens, clinical care and/or diagnostic support tools, or digital healthcare innovations. IS research involves employing a range of different study designs, including hybrid implementation-effectiveness trials in which IS outcomes can be primary, secondary or exploratory, and analyses can involve mixed models with random effects.
