Keynote Address: Where Have We Been, Where are We Going in Evidence Based Healthcare
Professor Alison Kitson was appointed as Professor of Nursing and Head of Discipline of Nursing at the University of Adelaide in January 2009, one of only three 5 ERA rated Nursing Schools in Australia. She also holds an appointment as Co-Director of the Centre for Evidence Based Practice South Australia (CEPSA), a collaborating center of the Joanna Briggs Institute, and is an Associate Fellow of Green Templeton College, University of Oxford in the UK. Before coming to Australia, Alison held a number of strategic leadership and executive positions in one of the world’s largest professional organizations for nursing, the Royal College of Nursing of the United Kingdom.
Her research over the last 20 years has focused on Knowledge Translation (KT) activity relating to better understanding the mechanisms that enable new knowledge (in the forms of guidelines or innovations in practice such as new roles) to be introduced into clinical practice. Alison is internationally recognized for her work in this area, and in particular as the originator of one of the most widely cited and used KT frameworks, the Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS) Framework.

Alison has been an invited speaker at numerous international and national scientific and professional meetings, including the annual meetings of the Joanna Briggs Colloquium, the Guideline International Network group, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research funded conferences, and numerous professional nursing meetings in Australia, Singapore, the US and Europe. Most recently Alison has been approached by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta to serve on an expert panel around context and the translation of evidence around managing violent behavior. She has also been a keynote speaker at the national Nurse Practitioner meetings and conferences in Adelaide.
Alison is the recipient of a number of awards, including a Fellowship of the Royal College of Nursing of the United Kingdom (FRCN) for her work on Standards of Nursing Care in 1991, a Florence Nightingale Travel Fellowship in 1999, Distinguished Graduate of the Year Award from her alma mater, the University of Ulster in 2002, a Florence Nightingale Leadership award in 2004 and a Fellowship of the American Academy of Nursing (FAAN) in 2009.
