AUSTRALIAN ROTARY HEALTH KNOWLEDGE DISSEMINATION AWARD
Professor Eoin Killackey
SMHR has a number of awards acknowledging excellence in research. However, there is often a gap between knowledge gained through research and the dissemination of that knowledge to clinicians, consumers and carers, and its implementation into policy and practice. Australian Rotary Health has therefore established an annual award to recognise excellence in knowledge dissemination and research translation.
