Building a Collaborative Translational Research Platform: Identifying Barriers and Enablers From Basic Research to Primary Healthcare.

Introduction The capacity to translate basic research discoveries into clinical applications and to synthesize, disseminate, and integrate clinical research results into practice remains challenging. To help innovate the means of communicating and disseminating knowledge between actors across the research-to-practice continuum, this study aims to identify barriers and enablers in building and implementing a collaborative platform that will bring together all the actors involved. Methods The study was conducted based on a qualitative descriptive design and a deductive thematic analysis.
