Wow! #canmedlibs I am green with jealousy.
There is a registration form to get access to the draft text, so I haven't read it yet. But based on the summary above, what a great way to integrate our growing understanding of the aerosol / through-the-air transmisison modality into evidence-based healthcare
Interesting exploratory study about searching the international HTA database, and practical implications for SR searchers. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/cesm.12034

Hi Mastodon, I'm looking for people familiar with the Canadian NSERC Science Promotion awards (but not the judges for this cycle).

I'm part of a Canadian non-profit that does environmental health literacy, and one of our community partners wants to nominate us ☺️🥹🏆

But the eligibility "guideline" is "typically" sustained effort over five years, and our organization is a child of the pandemic. Not even a child, a toddler at most. We don't have that long a track record.

@StephZihms @thesiswhisperer

Interested in the replies you receive. My partner just found #Obsidian and loves it, but hasn't used it in an academic setting yet.

@academicchatter or @phdstudents may have something to contribute here as well. @librarians have you heard anything from your people about this? #medlibs #canmedlibs #librarians

Apparently I missed a lot on vacation when I was away from screens. Welcome new #medlibs and #canmedlibs ! It's good to have you here. @medlibs
Anyone experienced with the WHO's #systematicreview bid system and open to chat? A faculty member asked our SR Service to collaborate on two bids they are submitting and I have some questions about the process.

When wanting to include non-English publications in the final results of your #systematicreview , do you adjust the search to account for this? Does it depend on the topic/what's out there?

Concerned about air quality at home? Halifax libraries now loaning out CO2 monitors | CBC News

If you've ever wondered about the air quality in your home, and whether it might explain why you feel tired, suffer from headaches, or whether it's putting you at higher risk of contracting COVID-19 and other viruses, Halifax Public Libraries can help.

Started the 2023 work year with a meeting where a clinician genuinely and consistently emphasized the value that my expertise will bring to the department, in front of a medical resident. I'm taking this as a positive outlook for the year.
