Jassia Iqbal, a predoctoral researcher at the Tobacco Control Unit (UCT) of the ICO, presented her thesis research at the 4th Doctoral Research and Dissemination Conference of the University of Barcelona, held at the Historic Building.
The event brought together more than 200 doctoral candidates from a wide range of disciplines and featured poster sessions, research monologues, and networking activities aimed at strengthening scientific communication and fostering collaboration within the academic community.
In this context, the researcher presented a poster titled “Evaluating the Adoption and Early Implementation of a Toolkit to Promote Primary Cancer Prevention Programmes: A Mixed-Methods Study”. Her thesis, conducted within the PIECES project, explores how an online implementation toolkit supports organisations in planning, implementing, and evaluating cancer prevention interventions, with a particular focus on adoption and organisational readiness in real-world settings.
Participation in the conference provided an opportunity to share ongoing research, exchange knowledge with fellow doctoral candidates, and strengthen connections within the research community.
