Starting the year with a re-read (so I can jump into the 2nd book for the first time).

1 of 3: The themes from Wicked have had me thinking a lot today. ... yet another school shooting, 2 days after the 12th anniversary of the Sandy Hook tragedy. This time, in my home of 6 years, Madison, WI. The repercussions of how we [fail to] dwell on and respond to "historic" events.

I keep thinking about that scene in Wicked when Dr. Dillamond is teaching the history of Animal rights, and somebody in the class whines, "Why don't you teach us history instead of dwelling on the past?" It feels so on the nose right now.

The holidays are tough... especially in community pharmacies [healthcare + retail = 😨]. I still love this 2023 NIOSH Science Blog: Help for the Holidays: Preventing Fatigue, Violence, and Stress in Retail blogs.cdc.gov/niosh-scienc...

AMAZING first slide from Callie Walsh-Bailey at #DIScience24 ! #academyhealth should start selling “We ❤️ TMFs” and “I ❤️ TMFs” merch!

When thinking about the pace of #DIScience24 , how do we deal with distractions of new frameworks and models and desire to quickly build new catapults and bridges? - @jhfordii.bsky.social Such a good question! It’s tempting to follow the newest “perfect” framework and restart all over again.

UW Madison School of Pharmacy faculty, staff, & graduate students have approximately 10 presentations and posters at the Academy Health #DIScience24 Conference! Look for our sessions on complex implementation strategies, OTC meds for older adults, a nationally recognized COPD EBP and FRAM modeling.

#DIScience24 #academyhealth one of the best sessions I could attend as a junior faculty member doing implementation science. IS requires flexibility, open communication, and DOCUMENTATION!

Attending in a brilliant workshop on User-Centered Systems Design today! #DIScience24 officially kicks off tomorrow! Woohoo! 🎉

Let's talk numbers: To date, since Oct 25th, we have found 395,000 Bluesky posts that link to a research paper or other research object that has a scholarly identifier like a DOI, PubMed ID, URN etc This is enormously high for a platform that has only been open since Feb to general sign-ups.

The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

Okay, Spotify... "scream, journaling, crying" seems a little too specific. 😂 No need to call me out like that.

Today on Bluesky, the hot topic of the day is data scraping. Are your posts being scraped to train machine learning algorithms? Should you be concerned? And what can you do about it? I'm here to break it all down on today's episode of the Bluesky Tech Minute:

Words cannot describe how incredible Wicked is. Run, sprint, FLY to see this! I cried no less than 5 times at this incredibly poignant and timely film! Donna’s Review: “Amazing!”

I read this brilliant article by Dr. Pamela Hoff. And then I read it again. And then I read it a third time. #AcademicSky, we MUST do better to challenge racial capitalism embedded in higher education. newsone.com/5718777/dei-...

Op-Ed from @rachelfadler.bsky.social "Teaching accessible design early can help students enter the workforce with a mindset that values inclusivity." 💭 So much of UX is the LACK of accessibility, esp. in healthcare! Excited for future designers with comp sci edu that values inclusivity from start!

Hello on this Wednesday morning . I here and I’m unpacking my bags .

I saw this and laughed out loud! 🤣 My research looks at Occupational Fatigue (closely related to Burnout 😉) but with my love of Disney, Muppets, AND occupational working conditions, this was too good not to share. [Sorry I couldn’t find the OP to give credit.]

What do we mean by healthcare professional "Occupational Fatigue?" 🪫💤🩹I shared a brief overview withThe Joint Commission and highlighted our team's conceptual framework of occupational fatigue. Check it out! www.jointcommission.org/resources/ne...

Such a fun article to write with grad school colleague and AMAZING researcher, Adati Tarfa, PharmD, PhD! We shared our experiences and "what happens when PharmDs pursue PhDs." 💊 📖 www.japha.org/article/S154...
