Research Needs for Implementing Cancer Prevention and Early Detection in Developing Countries: From Scientists’ to Implementers’ Perspectives

Figure 4

Possible factors influencing priority definition for implementation research in developing countries. Scientific capacity is usually linked to greater availability of baseline information for adoption and preparation. Simultaneously, gathering data for these purposes is proposed as the initial opportunity for research in the implementation process when none are available (see Figure 2). Exposure of independent physicians’ peers and networks as a result of strong evidence contributes to dissemination in addition to innovation marketing by manufacturers.
