Implementation science goes from pre-intervention, efficacy studies, effectiveness studies and implementation. It should be thought of earlier so that interventions can reach people quicker

Meditations for mortals by Oliver Burkeman:
How can we protect time to have the opportunity for “unpredictable moments of human connection” and, I’d like to add, more creativity, taking risks, in our work?

Just attended a seminar on using evidence synthesis to inform funding organizations’ decision-making practices. One scoping review was on what constitutes a good research culture - these are all important aspects we can strive for #academicsky #episky #science

One of my favorite things from #EULAR2025 was getting a short tour of Hospital Clinic de Barcelona, founded in 1906 - there is a lot of excellent training and research done by the faculty of medicine of the University of Barcelona in close contact with patient care #rheumsky

Great to hear positive results on treatments for lupus - such as from the dapirolizumab pegol phase 3 trial #rheumsky #EULAR2025

Lots of hope for CAR-T cell therapy for lupus patients. In RESET SLE they show good results for 8 patients #rheumsky #EULAR2025

These variables are highly intertwined - I’m proud that our Swedish data can be used to answer this question in collaboration with Lupus Europe

Excellent presentation by Daniel de Oliviera - we show that low income, low education, being single or divorced or being on sick leave is associated with increased risk of organ damage accrual and mortality #EULAR2025 #rheumsky #lupus

Great talk about behavior genetics by Robert Plomin. No traits are 100% heritable - we learn about environmental exposures through genetics research.

Our editorial about recent studies using TriNetX to study #sarcoidosis. The number of publications has increased rapidly and it isn't clear where the data come from or how it was processed before analysis. This can make a big difference in results!

What we see in sarcoidosis is just the tip of the iceberg. I recognize this iceberg in other chronic inflammatory diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus, although the manifestations are different
