- provides a link to each article or abstract
Why we do it
"Blogs and social media provide two vital layers of content between the research evidence and frontline practitioners. Most busy clinicians have very few opportunities each week to read a full paper... Reading a blog takes 5 minutes and can summarise a reliable and clinically relevant piece of evidence…" From Douglas Badendoch and Andre Tomlin, "Evidence Live 2016: Whither evidence in the social media world" Retrieved from: http://blogs.bmj.com/bmj/2016/06/09/evidence-live-2016-whither-evidence-in-the-social-media-world/ on August 21, 2017.
