Recent Publications of Interest – Several publications have been recently released by SOGC and CPS and are available for your review. We have provided a few titles and links for your information:


Nova Scotia Knowledge Translation Community of Practice Survey - Through funding from an award from Nova Scotia Health Research Foundation (NSHRF), Dalhousie University researchers Dr. Robin Urquhart and co-investigators Dr. Janet Curran and Dr. Erna Snelgrove are looking to create a community of practice (CoP) within NS. A community of practice (CoP) is a “space” (physical, online, or both) where people with common interests and concerns come together to share information, create new knowledge and solutions, and build and strengthen relationships. It is hoped that a CoP will connect people across the province who currently do or would like to learn more about doing knowledge translation (KT) in their work.

The researchers have created a survey and are requesting that interested individuals complete it and also pass it along to your colleagues/community as appropriate. The results will be used to help identify the needs of people involved with KT work in Nova Scotia and will inform the development of a Nova Scotia KT CoP.  Complete the survey at: https://surveys.gov.ns.ca/TakeSurvey.aspx?SurveyID=8lM3877M#

 Your feedback is appreciated!
