Dinner with visitors from Stockholm
Hi community,
A group of researchers from Stockholm university are coming to Toronto to meet with people involved in knowledge transfer. We are going to have dinner with them on October 13th, 5:30 – 7:30, at La Matignon, 51 St. Nicholas Street. This will be an opportunity for us to show off and talk to others who are interested in our field — and spend a lovely evening together. If you are interested, could you please email me directly so that I can add you to the reservation: dkramer@uwaterloo.ca. [Unfortunately, you will be paying for your own dinner, but the wonderful company will be free!!]
best wishes, Dee

Hi Sarah,
I am trying to do exactly the same thing – start a network of people who are conducting research on KT. My mandate is the province of Ontario (in Canada), in particular scientists conducting cancer control health services research associated with the OICR (Ontario Institute for Cancer Research). I’m just in the process of conducting a needs assessment to get a better idea of what kinds of tools, etc. they would like to use to start the network. I will definitely be starting a mailing list and a web site. The nature of the site will vary depending on the results of the needs assessment and may as simple as a few pages explaining what we do or be full fledged social networking type of environment.
What group are you working with? What are your plans? Would you like me to send you a copy of my needs assessment? Thanks.
Laura

I am happy to take part in reviewing your flier as I think it’s important to educate folks on what KT professionals do as a way of helping them and promoting the profession and legitimacy of KT.
One of the things we found in our KT Professionals Survey – to be presented this year at KTE CoP – was that many respondents felt their organizations did not fully recognize them and the importance of their role.
So, I’m in…
