Knowledge Mobilization

Knowledge mobilization (KM) involves activities that help create and use research in practical ways. For example, working together with patient partners to develop research and sharing the results with others are both KM activities. The goal of KM is to close the gap between research (what we know) and practice (what we do), enabling research to be applied in real-world settings more quickly to improve the lives of patients and the public.
