September 24, 2020: NIA IMPACT Collaboratory Launches Knowledge Repository and PCT Training Modules

Logo for the NIA IMPACT CollaboratoryThe NIA IMPACT Collaboratory this week announced 2 new resources to support the design and conduct of embedded pragmatic clinical trials (ePCTs) for people living with dementia and their care partners.

The IMPACT Knowledge Repository is a searchable collection of NIA IMPACT Collaboratory resources, including all publications, podcasts, grand rounds, videos, and training modules developed by the network’s members and cores.

The IMPACT Pragmatic Trials Training Modules are brief training videos produced by content experts. The first series introduces important considerations for conducting ePCTs with people living with Alzheimer disease and related dementias and their care partners.

The NIA IMPACT Collaboratory is supported by a grant from the National Institute on Aging. Its mission is to advance care for persons with dementia and their caregivers in real-world settings by building national capacity to conduct pragmatic clinical trials that test interventions embedded in healthcare systems.
