Can we audit the equity impact of our research interventions and service designs? Yes., we can, and perhaps this paper will help! doi.org/10.1186/s430...
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...

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.
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

Coming soon. Implementation strategies derived from an evidence synthesis of studies informed by Normalization Process Theory. In @ImplementSci, soon.
The Participatory Health Research Unit at @unioflimerick.bsky.social has launched a new Postgrad Diploma in Participatory Health Research. If you're interested in advanced participatory research methods to support Implementation Science, this course is for you. More info: lnkd.in/dr5uEquC #ImpSci
The Samurai Bear, the superhero of #impsci and a friend of @carlrmay.bsky.social, had a very important message at the #EIE2025: “TRUST is the glue that links people, things and their contexts”. @implementeic.bsky.social
Great keynotes from Carl May and Annette Boaz to kick off #EIE2025. Lots of food for thought re the evolution of implementation science, its role in informing policy and practice, and opportunities for the future.
@tracyfinch.bsky.social presents results of a study of the use of NOMAD NPT tool in published studies- concluding the measures are both psychometrically sound and pragmatic. NOMAD has been used in different ways - measuring, describing, predicting and measuring #EIE2025 @carlrmay.bsky.social
Looking forward to introducing Normalization Process Theory to the US DECIPHER Collaborative tomorrow (25 February) at 12 PM EST. This is a talk I'm always delighted to give!
Sociologist? Interested in technology and social relations? Then this is a book for you!
And it’s out! The 7th edition of How to Read a Paper, coauthored with new blood in the shape of my ex PhD student Paul Dijkstra @drpauldijkstra.bsky.social. So good working with you on this Paul!
Dreadful news: we have lost David Lynch. And I am in a restaurant where I will get anything but a damn fine cup of coffee…
Day 3 of ‘The Future of Evaluation in Health & Social Care’ @northumbriaideas.bsky.social Enjoyed listening to the 🙌🏼 always-inspirational 🙌🏼 @carlrmay.bsky.social & @tracyfinch.bsky.social sharing their knowledge & expertise surrounding process evaluation of complex interventions 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Intervention changes the context in which it's implemented. @carlrmay.bsky.social #evaluation conference. @northumbriaideas.bsky.social
@smith56778.bsky.social I'm the wrong person to follow, then. I fear that it will lead to nothing but disappointment for you.
'An intervention is never just a thing-in-itself. Complex interventions have many moving parts, but they also have many different effects. These effects shape important aspects of the contexts in which the intervention is being evaluated" @carlrmay.bsky.social @northumbriaideas.bsky.social
In the context of such vast stretches of time and distance, we might as well not measure our own existence.

The NHS and my fellow tax-payers have spent £27,000 on my meds over the past 12 months. It’s great to be alive, so thanks.
To all our friends, around the world, @ChrisM11.bsky.social and I wish you peace and light in 2025!
