#PHARMACIENS! Dites-nous ce que vous vivez en première ligne pour nous aider à défendre vos intérêts et à vous soutenir pendant la pandémie de #COVID19. Le sondage national se termine le 21 avril: fr.surveymonkey.com/r/HS767W2

@lamorosa100 @boissardb1 @lepharmachien Randomisation c’est quand on donne le traitement au hasard. Double aveugle c’est quand on le fait de façon à ce que ni le chercheur, ni le patient ne puisse savoir quel traitement il reçoit.

L'histoire du @lepharmachien et de la chloroquine m'a fait beaucoup réfléchir sur le manque de #littératie scientifique du public. J’ai élaboré une activité sur la démarche scientifique et les sources de biais pour des élèves du secondaire view.genial.ly/5e8c9bea74dd8c…

I gave a talk this week on things I have learned re: scientific writing. The talk was in French (my language at work) but I thought I’d share here (slides in French, tweets in English) in case it is useful to others. Thread:

Dear colleagues, you are invited to submit your #research on #polypharmacy (prevalence/incidence, determinants, impact on health, economic considerations, interventions to reduce inappropriate prescriptions…) to the journal #Pharmacy for its special issue mdpi.com/journal/pharma…

#polypharmacy has many definitions - does this undermine the credibility of the term? Is it time for a standard definition? Would different definitions be required for research, practice and policy? New #systematicreviews explores these questions mdpi.com/2226-4787/7/3/…

Excited to share our paper on the Réseau québécois des pharmaciens GMF (RQP)! #primarycarenetworks

Might we need to question the validity of medication possession ratios and other measures of adherence derived from claims data? reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/…

Zubin Austin’s thought-provoking article on this topic has been made FREE to access for the next month. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…

@JScottUoB Lovely! Looks almost like my backyard 😉

View from the (home) office today.

Have you heard? The long-awaited update to the #AGSBeersCriteria is here! 🥳🙌👍Check out the 2019 updates now in @AGSJournal onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

The pharmacists I work with at @StMikesHospital are all so impressive and improve care dramatically. This study makes me wonder whether we should be leveraging pharmacist expertise even more.
