Implementation studies helps us make sense of the results of experiments, replicate interventions, conduct meta-analyses, and understand the applicability of research findings to new contexts!

[Harvard Behavioral Insights Group @HarvardBIG]

@cmarielawrence from @OPRE_ACF: Practitioners should invest effort in richly documenting the context in which their behavioral science work is done and publish it so others can learn from your insights.

[Marie Lawrence @cmarielawrence]

Always a pleasure to join @HarvardBIG

[OPRE @OPRE_ACF]

Today our @cmarielawrence will be at @HarvardBIG’s #BigCareerExpo, discussing OPRE’s work on behavioral science and sharing reflections from her career.
