I started my doctoral studies in September 2022, and I’m currently in my 3rd year.  The title of my research is as follows:

An exploration of evidence-to-action: A study of telemedicine knowledge translation through the development of a research-driven telemedicine tool

Progress is mostly according to plan, and at this stage I’ve completed my 3rd phase of research, and the manuscript is nearly ready for submission to a journal.  I have one more phase of research, along with the dissertation, to complete my doctoral studies.

The current status of each Phase is as follows:

  • Phase 1 Development of the Support tool: A rapid literature review and development of the telemedicine Support tool along with explanatory resources.
    • Output: a publication by World Health Organization.

WHO Regional Office for Europe. (2024). Support tool to strengthen telemedicine: Guidance for telemedicine assessment and strategy development. https://www.who.int/europe/publications/i/item/WHO-EURO-2024-9548-49320-73720 .

  • Phase 2 Expert consensus: a Delphi study to test the constructs of the draft Support tool.
    • Output: a publication in Digital Health.

Katz, C., Robles, N., Novillo-Ortiz, D., & Saigí-Rubió, F. (2024). Selection of criteria for a telemedicine framework for designing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating telemedicine interventions: Validation using a modified Delphi process. DIGITAL HEALTH, 10. https://doi.org/10.1177/20552076241251951

  • Phase 3  State-of-the-art: rapid umbrella review to  synthesis the peer-reviewed evidence and further assess the findings of Phase 1 and 2.
    • Output: a publication near to completion for submission to BMJ Global Health

Katz, C., Ruiz, J.M. & Saigí-Rubió, F. (in progress) The state-of-the-art of the telemedicine implementation architecture: a rapid umbrella review of systematic reviews

 Phase 4 Field-testing – participatory action research in the field to test the implementation of the Support tool

  • Status: Survey currently in the field in Bosnia and Herzegovina

In addition to the above, I have been engaged in various other activities including:

  1. Saigí-Rubió, F., Nascimento, I. J. B. do, Robles, N., Ivanovska, K., Katz, C., Azzopardi-Muscat, N., & Ortiz, D. N. (2022).

On September 20, 2024, the ministry of public health in Cameroon was organizing its 2nd symposium for research on Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) in Cameroon. One year before, I had participated to the first edition. This 2nd edition was again an opportunity to present preliminary work on my thesis. I usually see that opportunity as a networking session and an opportunity to connect to key stakeholders and beneficiaries of my work. There, I presented the preliminary results of the systematic review and the draft of the marketing plan for the dissemination of the WHO Skin NTDs app.

The main recommendation from the participants at the symposium was to conduct a usability testing of the app in Cameroon to capture context-specific perception about the app in Cameroon.

From October 11th to 13th (2024), I attended the ADOS-2 Clinical Accreditation Course, led by Amalia Hervás and organized by IGAIN.

This  online course was crucial for understanding the multimodal component of diagnostic evaluation in autism, as it provided thorough training on the ADOS-2 tool. ADOS-2 not only addressed the linguistic aspects of communication but also incorporated non-verbal cues and interactions, offering a comprehensive approach to assessment.

Gaining accreditation in this assessment protocol was essential for accurately analyzing both verbal and non-verbal behaviors, which are key in the diagnostic process for autism. Additionally, this training was highly valuable for the design of a new dynamic assessment of language tool that takes into account the specific characteristics of the autistic population, ensuring a more tailored and effective evaluation approach.

On October 1st (2024), I attended an online session hosted by the Doctoral School on the software Atlas.ti, presented by Sergi Fàbregues and Enrique Baleiora. This session focused on exploring the functionalities of Atlas.ti for qualitative data analysis in health and psychology research. The experts provided a range of practical tools and techniques to enhance data organization and interpretation.

The training was essential for improving my skills in qualitative research, equipping me with valuable insights into data coding and analysis that I can apply in our participatory research project.

Hosted by the Department of English and Communication at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, this session provided valuable insights into how gestures impact narrative comprehension depending on various factors related to the task, the gesture itself, and individual characteristics. This knowledge will help us better understand the impact of gestures on language comprehension and oral instructions, allowing us to design a meaningful multimodal dynamic assessment approach for language.

Reflection on the activity:

Contributed as a co-author to the research article titled “Background Music and Memory in Mild Cognitive Impairment: The Role of Interindividual Differences.” The study examined the effect of background music on memory performance in individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) across three different experiments. Results showed that while background music does not universally enhance or impair memory, its effectiveness is significantly modulated by participants’ individual preferences for music. My contribution included data collection and analysis, supporting the broader aim of understanding how personalized variables influence the cognitive impact of music in clinical populations.
