Grand Hall Conference

Implementation Science Conference 2027

Join leading UK implementation science experts to examine how evidence can be translated into effective, sustainable practice.
Grand Hall Conference

Implementation Science bridges the gap between evidence and practice. It helps organisations adopt, implement, and sustain evidence-based interventions by identifying barriers to change and developing practical, context-specific solutions.

Its methods are rigorous and can be applied in any setting where there is a gap between what we know works, and what actually happens in practice.

The 2027 Conference is a space to connect with researchers, practitioners and policymakers, and hear from leading UK experts in Implementation Science.

It presents both theory and practice, with keynote addresses, panel discussions and open Q&A sessions. The programme also includes dedicated time to engage with speakers directly, and network with colleagues from academia, practice and industry.

The Conference is delivered by CEIS Solutions, and is designed to impart valuable learning and insights for delegates who want to combine academic rigour with commercial delivery.

The programme includes keynotes by Professor Amy Grove, Dr Arabella Scantlebury, Dr Carlos Sillero Rejon, and Professory Tracy Finch. 

Places are limited and early bird pricing ends in September. We encourage early registration to avoid disappointment.

About our Speakers

Keynote: Guest speaker Professor Tracy Finch

Tracy Finch, Professor of Healthcare & Implementation Science at Northumbria University, believes implementation should be built into interventions from the outset, so they work for all involved – including those delivering services. Her research develops implementation theory, and her practice applies this to real-world problems.

Session leader: Guest speaker Dr Carlos Sillero Rejon

Dr Carlos Sillero Rejon, Research Fellow in Health Economics at Bristol Medical School, focuses on bringing evidence into practice and behaviour change interventions. He applies experimental, cost-effectiveness, decision-modelling and qualitative methods across public health and harm reduction.

Session leader: Professor Amy Grove

Amy Grove, Professor of Implementation Science and Director of the Birmingham Centre for Evidence and Implementation Science (CEIS) has built a pioneering and distinct area of scholarship in Implementation Science and Health Technology Assessment, with a unique interdisciplinary contribution across clinical and organisational science.

Speaker: Dr Arabella Scantlebury

Arabella Scantlebury, Associate Professor and Deputy Director at CEIS, leads the University of Birmingham’s Implementation Science Programme. Her research uses mixed-methods evaluation and implementation approaches to improve the delivery of surgical and urgent care services. She has led and contributed to NIHR-funded studies investigating how complex interventions can be effectively adopted and sustained in real-world clinical settings.

Who is it for?

Researchers and practitioners working in public health, social care, education, and public policy.
