Working with Kids Brain Health Network, KMb York has made some small and not so small additions to the pathway. En 2016, l’Unité de mobilisation des connaissances (MdC) de York publiait en collaboration avec […]

Thinking About Impact in New Zealand / De Nouvelle-Zélande, une réflexion sur l’impact

Posted on March 2, 2018 (November 23, 2021) by Connie Tang

I went to New Zealand prepared to speak about research impacts. I found out (just in time) they had already prepared the audiences for me. Je suis parti pour la Nouvelle-Zélande avec une conférence toute prête sur l’impact de la recherche. J’ai découvert (à la dernière seconde) que mon auditoire était déjà très renseigné! I […]

#ShitDavidSays About Impact #7: If Impact Occurred but No One Was There to Measure It… / #ShitDavidSays About Impact, no 6 : s’il y a un impact, mais que personne n’est là pour le mesurer…

He points out the irony of […]

Probably the most important thing David says. Researchers don’t make impact, partners do. So why do we ask researchers to report on impact? C’est sans doute la chose la plus importante que dit David.
