New in @implementsci.bsky.social: We conducted a secondary analysis of 204 trials, revealing gaps in reporting implementation strategies and target HCP behaviors using TIDieR and AACTT. Structured reporting is essential for transparency & replication.

Advancing the selection of implementation science theories, models, and frameworks: a scoping review and the development of the SELECT-IT meta-framework - Implementation Science Background Theories, models, and frameworks (TMFs) are central to implementation practice and research. Selecting one or more TMF(s) for a project remains challenging due to numerous options and limit...

How do you decide which theory, model, or framework (TMF) should guide your next implementation project? Our team has just published SELECT-IT in @implementsci.bsky.social — a four-step meta-framework that turns that question into a replicable process: doi.org/10.1186/s130... @jgrimshaw.bsky.social

A timeline titled "The Golden Age of Antibiotics" shows when each antibiotic drug class was first available for medical use, with example antibiotics labeled. Classes are color-coded by their source: actinomycetes, other bacteria, fungi, or synthetic. Milestones include the first antibiotics (arsphenamines in 1910), as well as the discovery of many actinomycetes-derived antibiotics, such as streptomycin, and sulfonamides, penicillins, and tetracyclines. Data: Hutchings, Truman, Wilkinson (2019). Created by Saloni Dattani for Our World in Data.

Many people talk about the "Golden Age of Antibiotics", but I hadn't seen it visualized properly.

Just how many types of antibiotics were discovered during that time?

So, I visualized it myself!

At the first ever D&I conference, I argued that we needed more theory but less theories. I stand by that and worry that the profusion of theories, models and frameworks is hindering progress by creating too much noise! @gfontaine.bsky.social

Here is a brief summary of academic journals and news account.

World AIDS Day: Q&A with Dr Aaloke Mody For World AIDS Day 2024, Dr Aaloke Mody, Associate Editor for Implementation Science Communications, offers insight into HIV/AIDS research and his hopes for the future.

Read a Q&A with Implementation Science Communications Associate Editor Aaloke Mody for World AIDS Day communities.springernature.com/posts/world-... where he offers insight into HIV/AIDS research and his hopes for the future.

Because the below skeet went viral here, and people are arguing over it, I'm going to share some more info about it from a thread I did at the other place. I really need to just do an article about it but haven't done that yet. Until then, I hope readers find this thread useful. 🧵

Bluesky is emerging as the new platform for science - Mike Young Academy Scientific Twitter is about to find its true successor. And it is not X. This, our latest release, shows that the Bluesky network of scientists is growing — and growing.

It was a pleasure to contribute to this & continues to be useful to academics wanting to communicate effectively with policymakers

A textpost saying: What's new? 1. Expanding and improving the Behaviour Change Intervention Ontology. 2. Developing user-friendly tools to make ontologies accessible to everyone. 3. Building new ways to connect with researchers

A photo titled "Who's involved" with 9 researchers (from left to right: Paulina Schenk, Janna Hastings, Marta Marques, Bill Hogan, Colbie Reed, Maya Braun, Susan Michie, Robert West, Carolina Silva) posing. It also contains the logos of the involved insitutions: The Medical College of Wisconsin, University College London, University of Zürich and NOVA University in Lisbon

Big news! We're evolving: HBCP is now HBCP & APRICOT.

Good news – we have a 5-year NIH grant to expand the Behaviour Change Intervention Ontology and make it more useful and useable.

Learn more about APRICOT: humanbehaviourchange.org

Stay tuned for updates! 🍑

I have started a Behavioural Science starter pack - just let me know if you would like to be added - see go.bsky.app/CzLwTyZ

Okay made a starter pack for folks into evidence synthesis, systematic review, meta-analysis. I've surely missed people, so please ping with suggestions or self-nominations.

Hey #Bluesky 👋 I just deactivated my Twitter/X account and am officially here for the long haul. Looking forward to building community and connecting with you all in this new space! #AcademicSky #ImpSci @bsky.app

I wish everyone in the US would read this book by Peter Hotez to counter the chaos that will unfold in the next few years

Thread for those new to BlueSky. First of all, welcome. It feels like a safer space, doesn’t it? But also perhaps a bit disorienting initially? Here’s some tips for getting your bearings.

I’ve started an implementation science research starter list. Let me know if you would like to join in!
