N C Med J. 2014 Jul-Aug;75(4):261-4. doi: 10.18043/ncm.75.4.261.

Abstract

Despite the growing menu of evidence-based interventions to prevent and control cancer, such interventions continue to be underused in practice. This commentary describes interactive approaches to speeding the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based interventions and illustrates these approaches using examples from obesity prevention and tobacco control.
