Seguin Awarded Pitt Clinical And Translational Science Institute Grant

Pitt Pediatrics congratulates Claire Seguin, MD, for her grant award from the Pitt Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) Implementation Lab Pilot Award (ILPA) competition. Seguin’s project was titled “Improving Pediatric Discharge Processes to Increase Timely, Family-Centered and Resource-Efficient Care”.

The CTSI Implementation Lab aims to connect researchers with health care leaders and policymakers to implement partner-defined priority evidence-based practices. The pilot awards will support new or ongoing research that uses D&I methods to support the adoption, implementation or maintenance of an evidence-based practice or program in the setting of an existing health operation and focused on a specific need as defined by the UPMC CHP Primary Care Center, Children’s Community Pediatrics, or the Wolf Center. The award period of these awards is spread out over 12 months.
