Sean Grant
Sean Grant, DPhil, is Associate Research Professor at the University of Oregon.
Professor Grant completed his doctorate in Social Intervention as a Clarendon Scholar at the Centre for Evidence-Based Intervention, University of Oxford. His scholarship focuses on the generation, synthesis, and use of evidence across the social, behavioral, and health sciences.
Grant specializes in methods for summarizing research and expert opinion on the effectiveness and implementation of interventions (practices, programs, and policies). He is particularly interested in online Delphi processes and research synthesis methods, due to their significant influence on the credibility and utility of research evidence for policy and practice decisions.
His work on these methods also involves collaborative, translational research focused on specific topics, such as substance use and mental health. The goal of Grant’s scholarship is to advance evidence-based practice: i.e., using scientific evidence to inform policy-making and programmatic decisions.
