Wow! Check out this short history of #implementationscience in @pnas.org, with quotes by #impsci pioneers at WashU and beyond (including our leader Byron Powell and friends @rsbeidas.bsky.social, @jgrimshaw.bsky.social, and more!): www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

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
This is so exciting! The German National Library of Medicine @zbmed.bsky.social just had its first open meeting on the plan for an open & independent PubMed safety net. Here's my write-up @plos.org on the meeting & how institutions & others can help absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2025/05/14/g...

Spending a wonderful day with @jgrimshaw.bsky.social at the opening of Pitmen, an exhibition of his late father’s work. At Silvershack Gallery in Toronto
Vote Canada!!
Carleton! You have an amazing opportunity to elect this incredible man. Bruce Fanjoy is genuine, compassionate, and truly cares about his community. At the doors, I felt change is happening in this riding. Please get out and vote for @brucefanjoy.bsky.social on Monday. #cdnpoli #Elxn2025
Wow.
When @theglobeandmail.com headlines that piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre’s platform is an exercise in “magical thinking,” you know he’s in trouble.

My father, Frank Grimshaw, was a photographer with the UK National Coal Board in the North West of England from the late 1950s to early 1970s. He shot a remarkable body of work. We have an exhibition in Toronto, Canada 3rd May - June 22nd. (We are trying to organize a UK exhibition next year).
Almost certainly true.

But 1) the limits on individual rights were often quite local - quarantine one ship, close one restaurant, etc. They were often of short duration.
The COVID-19 pandemic meant the limits on rights were broad & lasted months

It's not an exaggeration to say that the Trump/Musk regime has figured out a way to pull off a global holocaust without invading a single country or dropping a single bomb. When you see it as intentional and not as the unfortunate byproduct of cutting government waste it's very clarifying.
@thelancet.bsky.social editorial on Canadian healthcare. Given everything we have gone through in the last 5 years, it is easy to forgot what progress has been made (see 1st para). Implicit also is the worry that we could go backwards depending on the next election. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
Nine Trump false claims about Canada, Daniel Dale CNN
I can confirm Daniel Dale's summary. There are more he hasn't listed, including Fentanyl claims.

Easy to lose this in the noise of the day, but the prime minister of Canada just said the US president, leader of the global hegemon, wants to soften us up economically so he can annex us.
That is one of the most remarkable statements, and realities, in our history.
I’m getting so many messages from colleagues who have lost their jobs, or grants and funding
It is really heartbreaking
Appears to be back up (thankfully). However any threat to Pubmed would undermine medical science globally.
Don’t mess with the True North
I've been stalking NIH Reporter to see if any new R01s fund at the 15% F&A rate, but... no new full R01s have funded since 2/10/2025, not a single R01 - across all of NIH - since 2/08. Only 18 grants have been newly funded - I am happy for the F31/F32/F30, R35, K99 trainees who have received $$.
All former Presidents are silent.
George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Barrack Obama, and now Joe Biden will be silent.
You don't have to hold an office to be a leader but we still do not have one.
In the meantime, Canada is doing Canada stuff and sticking to science
Stand Up for Science rallies will be held in DC and state capitals on March 7th. Share with friends. Sign-up here to get email updates with details: www.eventbrite.com/e/stand-up-f...
