Background and Interests
Dr. Fowles’ work centers on bridging the science-to-service gap through translational clinical science and the dissemination and implementation (D&I) of Evidence-Based Practices (EBP). As Director of the Psychological Services Training Center (PSTC), he trains students as clinicians, supervisors, and system-designers. This work coincides with Dr. Fowles role in establishing the Delaware Project and its vision for training the next generation of clinical scientists (see www.delawareproject.org). This vision is realized at the PSTC in a variety of ways including 1) the implementation of a specialty practica in EBP, 2) the investigation and piloting of EBPs in preparation for community implementation, 3) innovative problem-based learning like HealthCare Theatre, and 4) the building of interdisciplinary relationships with partners within the University (e.g., Nurse-Managed Healthcare, Employee Assistance) as well as outside the University (e.g., Delaware Psychological Association, Division of Prevention and Behavioral Health Services, Delaware Mental Health Association). Dr. Fowles also serves as Associate Director of the Center for Training, Evaluation, and Community Collaboration (C-TECC). Dr. Fowles co-founded C-TECC to create a vehicle to maximize community training, partnerships, problem-solving around dissemination and implementation, and planning for sustainability. In these complimentary roles, Dr. Fowles works on improving science-based clinical services and service networks at every level.
