Launched in 2017, the AGE-WELL National Innovation Hub APPTA is putting innovative aging and technology research into the hands of the people who can use it. We know that it takes on average 17 years for research to be translated into action . We aim to bridge that gap and mobilize aging and technology research in ways that can improve the lives of older Canadians.
APPTA is formed through a partnership between AGE-WELL NCE, Canada’s aging & technology network, and the New Brunswick Health Research Foundation (NBHRF).
Formally, knowledge translation is defined by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research as a dynamic and iterative process that includes the synthesis, dissemination, exchange and ethically sound application of knowledge to improve health, provide more effective health services and products, and strengthen the health care system.
