    The Lunch and Learn discussion series is part of PCC’s Bridging the Gap in Primary Care Research project, which helps front-line primary care clinicians, consumers, advocates, payers and policymakers identify and share relevant primary care-based research to a variety of audiences. The Lunch and Learn series is a primary dissemination channel aimed at educating a wide range of primary care stakeholders about the most relevant and actionable primary care research. You can read more about the broader project here. Lunch and Learn discussions bring together primary care researchers, advocates, policymakers and others to discuss key findings and policy implications of the most important research identified by the RDWG, with the goal of better integrating the research findings into their organizational and policy decisions. This group is open to all PCC members and supporters who are interested in learning about and engaging in conversation with academic researchers, policymakers, advocates, and executives about translating primary care’s research and evidence base into action. You can read the July 22 discussion highlights and view a recording here. The next Lunch and Learn discussion will take place on October 7, 2:00-3:00 p.m. ET.
