CSO aims to ensure the
widest and fastest possible dissemination of the research it supports; thereby
encouraging the rapid uptake of research finding into clinical practice.
 |
Executive summaries of final reports of CSO funded work are made
available on these webpages helping to ensure rapid dissemination of
research findings from CSO-funded research |
As part of CSO's
dissemination strategy and to encourage a culture of evidence-based practice,
CSO is also involved in:
|
UK PubMed Central - We set great store by journal publication as the
primary means of disseminating findings to the research community and in
2006 made it a condition of our funding that all papers resulting from CSO
funded research should be made freely available within 6 months of
publication.
|
|
UKCRN Portfolio Database; a database of ongoing clinical and related
research studies |
|
NHS Centre for Reviews and Dissemination responsible for disseminating
the Cochrane library, Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effectiveness
(DARE), NHS Economic Evaluation database (NHS HEED), and Health Technology
and Assessment (HTA) database. |
|
Public symposia on areas of research of relevance to the Scottish population |
|
Funding is available for investigators on CSO grants towards attendance at
conferences where they are presenting the findings of CSO funded research.
Applications should be submitted on
Form 6. CSO will usually only provide funding for one conference per
project grant. |
