A Day of Leading Scientific Presentations on the Next Stage of Prevention Science
Thursday, March 20, 2008
Time: 8:30 am - 6:30 pm
Session I 8:30 – Noon: Genes, Social Context, and Life Course Development
Session II 1:30 – 5:00 PM: Going from Research to Practice with High Fidelity

Location: Sommer Hall, The Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, 615 N. Wolfe Street, Baltimore, MD
MISSION OF THE FESTSCHRIFT
Major progress has been made in the field of prevention science over the last three decades. Early risk and protective factors and developmental pathways leading to specific mental disorders and drug abuse have been identified and validated through longitudinal studies. These specific risk and protective factors reside in the individual as well as in social fields of family, classroom and school, peer group, and in the broader community, social class, and cultural contexts. There are now many rigorous randomized preventive trials that have confirmed that many of these early risk and protective factors can be modified by specific interventions, and that these produce beneficial outcomes throughout childhood and young adulthood. Furthermore, many of these preventive interventions can be moved into practice when community-research partnerships are in place. Advances in statistical designs, measurement, and analytical modeling have allowed us to carefully evaluate who benefits from an intervention, for how long, and under what circumstances.
At the same time, genetics and neurobiology have made enormous strides that now need to be integrated with the detailed knowledge that prevention science has developed regarding behavioral change in social contexts. In addition, with the successes that prevention science has had with programs that prevent mental disorder and drug abuse as well as promote mental health, we now face the new challenge of moving these effective prevention programs into practice. The task we now face is two-fold: 1) bringing the lessons of prevention science and genetics and neurobiology into a broader, richer shared scientific framework to organize and enhance knowledge of etiology and prevention, and 2) Bringing effective programs into practice with fidelity by institutionalizing programs within the natural cultural and institutional structures in which they must reside. Today’s meeting is both a celebration of the progress and the laying of a base for the more integrated broader framework on which the next stage of work can be built.
