The research conducted, in cancer, cardiovascular risk factors, and other aspects of prevention and promotion, is highly applied: the knowledge generated is transferred to public health or primary care clinical practice. In our research studies, we use various methodologies, thus combining quantitative and qualitative research (mixed methods). Through surveys, interviews, and focus groups, we involve society in our projects. In this way, we carry out transdisciplinary research, in which we engage different stakeholders in the design of our projects and also communicate our results to the interested group.[\/vc_column_text][vc_button size=&#8221;btn-sm&#8221; radius=&#8221;btn-round&#8221; outline=&#8221;yes&#8221; border_width=&#8221;0&#8243; link=&#8221;url:%2Fen%2Fequipo%2F&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;470845&#8243; el_class=&#8221;op075&#8243;]OUR TEAM[\/vc_button][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; back_color=&#8221;color-gyho&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;4&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; inverted_device_order=&#8221;yes&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;167367&#8243; back_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; font_family=&#8221;font-673331&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;4&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;7\/12&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;862946&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;h4&#8243; text_weight=&#8221;400&#8243; text_height=&#8221;fontheight-357766&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;203711&#8243;]Research Lines[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_separator sep_color=&#8221;color-uydo&#8221;][vc_custom_heading heading_semantic=&#8221;p&#8221; text_size=&#8221;h4&#8243; text_weight=&#8221;300&#8243; text_height=&#8221;fontheight-357766&#8243; text_space=&#8221;fontspace-781688&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;164183&#8243;]The mission of GRAPP-caIB is to generate valid knowledge on the efficacy, effectiveness, and efficiency of innovative interventions in prevention and health promotion and transfer it to citizens and professionals.[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;140927&#8243;]<strong>The main research lines of the group are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.

At the doctoral level, we collaborate with the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB) in various doctoral programs, especially in the<a href=\"https:\/\/estudis.uib.es\/es\/estudis-de-doctorat\/doctorat\/TSGL\/\"> Doctoral Program in Global Health, Healthcare Services, and Social Healthcare<\/a>. In the last five years, we have supervised more than ten theses, with excellent results in all of them. Additionally, through agreements with both the UIB and other universities, we supervise master&#8217;s theses, as well as final-year degree projects and training placements. In collaboration with the Teaching Unit of the Primary Care Management of Mallorca, we train Family Medicine residents (R3 and R4) in research every year.

For this reason, in order to carry out our studies, we work closely with individuals (both healthy and those with specific health issues), who represent the groups we aim to help.<br \/>\nThere are different ways in which you can collaborate in our research:<br \/>\n\u00b7 <strong>Participation as a study subject<\/strong>, both in clinical trials and in studies through surveys or discussion groups (also called focus groups), among others. It is important to note that all our studies have been approved by both the Primary Care Research Committee and the Ethics Committee of the Balearic Islands.<br \/>\n\u00b7 <strong>Participation in workshops or outreach events<\/strong>, aimed at sharing and discussing the knowledge gained as a result of our research with the public\/society. Some of the events we often participate in include the European Researchers&#8217; Night, Science Day, and International Day of Women and Girls in Science.<br \/>\n\u00b7 <strong>Involvement as a non-scientific actor<\/strong>. At GRAPP-caIB, we collaborate with members of society, who participate in the design, execution, and dissemination of the results of our studies. This involves conducting research &#8220;with&#8221; or &#8220;by&#8221; patients or members of society, rather than exclusively &#8220;on&#8221; or &#8220;for&#8221; them. Participation at this level is important to carry out studies that are truly relevant to the interests of society. This allows new research ideas to emerge. It is also a way to ensure that our research focuses on what truly matters to people.<br \/>\nWould you like to participate in our studies?
