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!

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

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.

Magnificent achievement!

A quick workshop (brief since the conference organisers gave us 45 minutes!) on the explanatory theoretical model of change for codesign mh.bmj.com/content/45/3... with some of the team from @alivenational.bsky.social @candicepeart.bsky.social @aliciaking.bsky.social Jennifer Bibb, Elise Dettmann.

An epidemic of virologists

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.

#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

What a treat to see @carlrmay.bsky.social live at the European Implementation conference #EIE2025

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

Time spent theorizing with @vmontori.bsky.social is always fun and never wasted.

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!

Definitely pushing the boundaries.

Helen, you should doing the Kate show on R6.

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.
