6. “The current failings of dissemination and uptake have more to do with miscommunication – inappropriate dissemination, limited commitment to uptake, lack of understanding, and unrealistic expectations of each others’ environments – than with unavailability of research or an absent need for it in decision making.” ~Lomas, 1997 When do we act?

8. What We See Depends on Where We Stand

9. Our Agenda • Hear from NCI Leadership • Learn from and share findings with the President’s Cancer Panel • Break into three groups (Prevention, Early Detection, Treatment & Supportive Care) to identify opportunities for inter-organizational KT partnerships for action within cancer control continuum context • Call to Action
