VHA Health Promotion, Disease Prevention and Health Education are excited to have @ShereefElnahal on board. We look forward to your leadership and passionate support for Veterans, Caregivers, VHA employees and Veterans families.

[Shereef Elnahal, MD @ShereefElnahal]

Warm thanks to @POTUS and @SecVetAffairs for their confidence in me to lead the Veterans Health Administration, and to the US Senate for confirming me today.

Thanks most of all to Veterans, families, caregivers, and survivors.

Beyond thrilled and eager to get to work for them.

@vahsrd @ranielwy @RWJF @theNAMedicine @ranielwy Wow. This is fantastic news. Congrats Rani on this awesome appointment! It is so well deserved. You will also make great contributions, I am sure! Implementation science, VA and Brown will be well represented!

[Michael Goldstein @goldsteinm52]

@ranielwy @VA_CHOIR @seppo_rinne @vahsrd @seppo_rinne @ranielwy Congrats Seppo. Would like to know how to access the findings. I am particularly interested in learning about Veterans perceptions about what they want from the EHR and whether current efforts are meeting their needs.

[Michael Goldstein @goldsteinm52]

Great to see @RussGlasgow and his colleague @dan_matlock provided with an opportunity to develop and, hopefully, support implementation of patient-centered decision aids. I can’t image Russ would not also support implementation strategies. I definitely want to learn more!

[ACCORDS - Health Research @ACCORDSResearch]

. @Dan_Matlock, MD, MPH, & @RussGlasgow, PhD, are set to launch and support 10 distinct projects over the next 5 years that aim to develop patient-centered decision support tools as part of the recently-awarded Anschutz Acceleration Initiative. Learn more: https://t.co/qFxClIyIDu

[Michael Goldstein @goldsteinm52]

@mcpoliti Thanks for the heads up! This Cochrane Review will hopefully boost implementation of well designed decision aids in practice, though as the accompanying editorial notes, we have a long way to go in meeting even modest use of decision aids in clinical practice.

@wpri12 @wpri12 @nytimes @MatunuckOyster We love Matunuck Oyster Bar. All their seafood is super fresh, perfectly prepared and delicious. This time of year is a good time to go, though perhaps not this New Year’s eve weekend, given the attention it is getting.

@noelTbrewer @KurtRibisl Congratulations, Noel and the UNC team!

@_RonHaskell @_RonHaskell - i had to look up the meaning of WONK - I am old and not aware of most trendy terms - probably meet the definition of non-WONK - if there is such a thing. Though after reading some of the definitions i found online, i do aspire to be a WONK.

Huge congratulations to the phenomenal @LJDamschroder for being awarded @vahsrd’s Health System Impact Award for advancing implementation science to accelerate use of evidence-based healthcare, among many other exceptional efforts. Laura, you rock!! 👏🏽🎉 https://t.co/R0n3ZlYamc

[Nicki Hastings MD @HastingsNicki]

Honored to receive this award on behalf of an excellent team @DurhamADAPT. Thank you @VAInnovation for the recognition and all of the support spreading the STRIDE walking program. Proud that it started @vadurham and now in 60+ hospitals #impsci

[VA HSR @vahsrd]

Within VA care, we do our best to engage with our clinical & operational partners, so this work from @NathanForCH et al about clinicians feeling out of touch w/research is important.

[VA HSR @vahsrd]

New research impact on end of life care. PERSIVED QUERI is evaluating evidence-based approaches to increase goals of care conversations & documentation of Veterans' preferences for life-sustaining treatments.

@AriMelber I have had a soft spot for donuts my whole life - and a resulting soft belly. The best donuts - Mystic’s Young Buns - if you go, better get there early - they often sell out by noon!

3+ years into a pandemic, the general public is still generally confused about what to do when they test positive for COVID19.

So let me walk you through what I, an infectious disease epidemiologist public health nurse, am doing since I tested positive on a rapid antigen today.

Brown will miss Megan’s leadership, scholarship and advocacy, though i trust her appointment as Yale Dean will enrich Yale-Brown collaborations and partnerships, while increasing traffic between Providence and New Haven on I 95.

[Ashish K. Jha @ashishkjha]

Megan Ranney is a once in a generation talent.

A brilliant scholar and communicator who is as creative and smart as they come.

Congratulations to @YaleSPH

[Michael Goldstein @goldsteinm52]

And thank YOU Kate for your clarity and willingness to acknowledge the absence of a clinically important effect of self-directed weight mtg in your well designed and conducted VA trial. As you and your coauthors noted, contact with clinicians matters!

Now on post news and enjoying the experience. https://t.co/qwsz8puWEz
