SUMMARY:KTDRR’s 2025 Virtual Knowledge Translation Conference
DESCRIPTION:This conference will look at different ways to make knowledge translation (KT) more effective and impactful. They seek presentations that will discuss how to measure the success of KT efforts\, including involving users early on\, working with people with disabilities\, and customizing products and outreach to meet user needs. They’ll also look for presentations that talk about sharing KT content online\, ensuring it’s credible\, teaching digital literacy\, spotting false information\, and making sure disability is represented accurately. In addition\, they encourage presentations that explore how technology can boost KT projects\, such as using digital tools to build online communities\, check text readability\, and summarize research. They also welcome presentations that highlight the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in creating easy-to-understand summaries\, organizing research\, addressing AI bias\, and writing effective prompts. Join them to discover new strategies and tools to enhance your KT efforts.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Lymphodepletion for CAR-T/IEC Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:Achieving consistent and effective outcomes in CAR T and other immune effector cell (IEC) therapies relies heavily on getting lymphodepletion “right.” Emerging evidence shows that both under- and over-exposure can impact safety\, efficacy\, and long-term persistence\, making optimized dosing strategies increasingly critical as the field evolves. \nThis webinar will explore how model-informed and data-driven approaches can help identify the optimal lymphodepletion exposure window\, improve predictability\, and support more standardized practices across patient populations and treatment centers. Speakers will discuss current challenges\, scientific rationale\, clinical insights\, and practical considerations for implementation.
