Fifty per cent of all known health risk factors could be redressed with known, effective preventive policies or practices.1 Yet, widespread uptake of effective prevention is uncommon.2 Lack of program funding in prevention may be one reason why opportunities are missed.3 Another critical impediment is that there is insufficient field-level evidence on how to scale-up interventions across wider populations and adapt to different contexts without loss of fidelity. Implementation research seeks to address this important evidence gap, moving beyond research to describe, understand and test the effectiveness of prevention interventions on measures of community health, to instead describe, understand and test how effective prevention interventions are implemented integrated and adapted into clinical and community systems.4 Implementation research has considerable potential to improve public health. For example, reviews suggest that effects of interventions could be enhanced by two to 12 times with appropriate, relative to poor, implementation.5 However, as shown in Figure 1, evidence generation in intervention research remains skewed towards studies of efficacy, or ‘what works,’ in contrast to studies of how we can apply that knowledge in practice and maximise benefits.
