New from Michael Hallsworth in Nature Human Behaviour: A manifesto for applying behavioural science. This is must read for practitioners, academics, funders - basically everyone working in this field. (Full disclosure: Michael is my boss.) nature.com/articles/s4156…

Throughout my research I’ve learned a great deal about intentions and why they matter - particularly in the academy. My intention here is simple - to ensure we protect knowledge and spaces, and to support my Indigenous colleagues. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

I am concerned by reports that City of Vancouver and Vancouver Police are dismantling the homeless encampment on Hastings Street in Vancouver. I visited the encampment last August and spoke with residents. We consistently heard that moving people puts them at risk. –MJ

Really appreciated working with this editorial team. Thanks for highlighting this work and so thankful for support from CIHR for funding a small project grant that allowed us to show proof of concept and scale the evidence across the #Foundry network. #Learninghealthsystem
