Translational framework for implementation evaluation and research: a critical approach to patient-centred equity design - Implementation Science Communications Background The field of implementation research has recently seen much interest in equity, with a strong emphasis on recognising and responding to disparities in care. Recent studies highlight the rol...

Can we audit the equity impact of our research interventions and service designs? Yes., we can, and perhaps this paper will help!

New in Implementation Science:

An international collaboration led by @carlrmay.bsky.social turned NPT into a set of 24 theory-linked + 96 micro-strategies, grounded in the actual work of implementation.

Actionable. Empirical. Adaptable.

New implementation strategy taxonomy, grounded in Normalization Process Theory - terrific work led by @carlrmay.bsky.social and band - I enjoyed and am proud of having played second fiddle 🙃 #ImpSci #NPT

Once upon a time, some of my PhD students put my comments on their draft chapters and papers into a book.
Those were very happy days indeed.

Thanks IS

Coming soon. Implementation strategies derived from an evidence synthesis of studies informed by Normalization Process Theory. In @ImplementSci, soon.
