New research letter on older adult acceptability of guidelines to stop colon cancer screening by estimated life expectancy out in @JAMANetworkOpen today!

[JAMA Network Open @JAMANetworkOpen]

Nearly 40% of older adults surveyed did not find guidelines limiting colon cancer screening after age 75 to be acceptable. https://t.co/t99rVUsVJM

Thanks for having me! Great to share and discuss findings from my dissertation research with clinicians and scholars in #medicaldecisionmaking

[MGH Health Decision Sciences Center @mghsdm]

So excited to have @Laura_Brotzman return to present her work on how older adults think about #lifeexpectancy in cancer screening decisions. Can’t wait to see her work published to help others consider older adults' mental models of life expectancy in #medicaldecisionmaking.

🚨New narrative review paper out! Guidelines recommend incorporating life expectancy estimates to inform cancer screening decisions for older adults, but PCPs and patients face conceptual and operational barriers to doing so: https://t.co/c2EIBGaK7h @bzikmundfisher

[Laura Brotzman @Laura_Brotzman]

Grateful for the opportunity to share my qualitative research investigating clinician perspectives on use of life expectancy to guide cancer screening for older adults at #SMDM22 in Seattle! Loved learning from so many thoughtful scholars & experts - can’t wait for next year!

[Laura Brotzman @Laura_Brotzman]

Excited to see our paper investigating older women’s perspectives on routine mammography screening published! Thanks to @Parisa_Teh & @DrRachelShelton for their mentorship and leadership

[Dr. Rachel Shelton @DrRachelShelton]

Our new qualitative paper identifies drivers of routine mammography screening in older women, which helped lay foundation for NCI grant on #deimplementation. Thanks to this team for leading! @Laura_Brotzman @Parisa_Teh @nmoise_md @Dr_JAustin #impsci

For the next game, qualitative researchers must submit revisions which satisfy the quantitative reviewer who criticised your sample size, lack of statistical analysis, and generalisability of your findings. Good luck #QualitativeResearch #AcademicTwitter

[Dr. Rachel Shelton @DrRachelShelton]

1/ So happy this #impsci piece is out on advancing understanding of #deimplementation of routine mammography screening in older women! This work informed our NCI-funded R01 with @nmoise_md & @Parisa_Teh that will further develop & test deimplementation strategies in this context

[Dr. Jessica Austin @Dr_JAustin]

Check out our new article in #impscicomms about multilevel factor impacting de-implementation of mammography screening! Miss this great team! @DrRachelShelton @Parisa_Teh @nmoise_md @BrotzmanLaura
