Very important report on terminated #impsci NIH grants. Sadly, the list keeps growing: our implementation research grant was terminated last week.

Hi #impsci friends! Last fall we re-launched our website with a fresh design and new features like the Equity Check for each step on the Research Pathway. Have you used this feature? Any feedback for us? To explore, begin at Step 1: bit.ly/2VPyJEu. Imgs show Equity Checks for Steps 1 & 2 (of 8):

PAUSE AND REFLECT: EQUITY CHECK
❯ Does your research question address or involve inequities in health outcomes, access, or quality of care among different populations?

❯ Have you (and how have you) engaged with the communities affected by the inequities to ensure their perspectives and needs are reflected in the research question?

❯ Is answering this question or addressing this inequity a priority of the population(s) involved, or do they have different priorities?

❯ Does your research team include anyone from the community or communities you wish to study?

❯ Have you considered the social, economic, and cultural contexts that may influence variation in implementation and subsequent outcomes of the intervention?

❯ Are there system-level factors, such as policies and organizational practices, that could impact equity in the implementation process?

❯ Has the population you wish to conduct research with experienced historical or contemporary harm that could impact their desire to participate or shape the implementation process and outcomes?

PAUSE AND REFLECT
EQUITY CHECK
Does the T/M/F:

❯ specify the social, cultural, economic, and political contexts of the research?

❯ account for the needs and contexts of various demographic groups impacted, particularly those who are historically or currently marginalized or underserved?

❯ recognize and aim to dismantle existing power structures that contribute to inequities, including consideration of who has decision-making power and how it can be equitably distributed?

❯ emphasize building trusting relationships with communities and incorporating community-defined evidence so efforts are culturally relevant?

❯ address macro-, meso-, and micro-level influences on equity?

❯ encourage ongoing critical reflection on how well it advances equity and continue to identify areas for improvement?

"To condone policies that the profession knows will compromise health—or to remain silent and look away—is to be complicit in putting population health at risk" To every university, every public hospital, every academic society: SILENCE IS NOT AN OPTION. #medsky
