The challenges of sharing knowledge across boundaries: tales from an NIHR Knowledge Mobilisation Research Fellow. Dr Vicky Ward, lecturer in primary care at the Leeds Institute of Health Sciences, University of Leeds
There is a large body of research and literature which focuses on translating knowledge into action, but much of it focuses on how explicit, codified knowledge (e.g. research results and products) makes its way into day-to-day practice. Less is known about how tacit, practice-based knowledge (e.g. experiences, skills and values) is shared between people from different backgrounds. Last year I was awarded an NIHR knowledge mobilisation research fellowship to focus on this topic.
