Implementation research is the scientific study of methods to promote the systematic uptake of research findings and other evidence-based practices into routine practice, and, hence, to improve the quality and effectiveness of health services and care. This relatively new field includes the study of influences on…

There is a 17-year gap between the publication of research which proves an intervention is efficacious and effective and the implementation of that same intervention into practice [1]. In behavioral health, only 14% of successful interventions are integrated into actual practice [2]. As such, Implementation Science is…

'Boel Andersson-Gäre' 'Nick Sevdalis'] Background Implementation science and improvement science have similar goals of improving health care services for better patient and population outcomes, yet historically there has been limited exchange between the two fields. Implementation science was born out of the…

Getting the science right for implementation is critical for making the processes for improving outcomes more predictable and effective in global public health. Unfortunately, “implementation science” has become a catchphrase for ideas, assumptions, and findings concerning the science to service gap and how to close…

Despite the growing profile of ‘implementation science’, its status as a field of study remains ambiguous. Implementation science originates in the evidence-based movement and attempts to broaden the scope of evidence-based medicine to improve ‘clinical effectiveness’ and close the ‘implementation gap’. To achieve this…

In this editorial, we reflect on the arguments for starting a scientific society focused on research on how to improve healthcare. This society would take an inclusive approach to what constitutes healthcare. For instance, it should include mental health healthcare, treatment for substance abuse, the work of allied…

There has been an increasing focus on disseminating research findings, but less about practices specific to disseminating and engaging non-researchers. The present project sought to describe dissemination practices and engagement of stakeholders among dissemination & implementation (D&I) scientists. Methods to…

The name "Arduino" made its international debut in 2005, marking the age of Arduino as one of the most user-friendly and costeffective microcontroller boards (MCBs) for novices. The science implementation of Arduino boards in automation, networking and data acquisition has been increasing steadily. This study provides…

Public involvement is key to closing the gap between research production and research use, and the only way to achieving ultimate transparency in science. The majority of life science research is not public-facing, but is funded by the public and impacts the community. We undertook a survey of researchers within the…

Raman spectroscopy is an increasingly powerful and fast-growing analytical technique across diverse disciplines, from materials science and chemistry to biology and medicine, thanks to advances in Raman instrumentation and greatly supported by the flourishing of chemometrics and artificial intelligence (AI). However…

Scientific literacy is crucial to address important and complex societal problems, both current and future. Teaching using a socioscientific issues (SSI) approach is a potential strategy to develop students’ scientific literacy, although teachers have reported concerns about its implementation, such as the inability to…

In this work, a concept for an open chemistry knowledge base was developed to integrate chemical research results into a collaboratively usable platform. To achieve this, we enhanced Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) to support the collection and structured summary of chemical data contained in publications. We implemented…

The practice of science outreach is more necessary than ever. However, a disconnect exists between the stated goals for science outreach and its actual impact. In order to examine one potential source of this disconnect, we undertook a survey-based study to explore whether barriers to participation (either intrinsic or…

Reducing the number of animals used in experiments has become a priority for the governments of many countries. For these reductions to occur, animal-free alternatives must be made more available and, crucially, must be embraced by researchers. We conducted an international online survey for academics in the field of…

The use of science for policy is at the core of a perfect storm generated by the insurgence of several concurrent crises: of science, of trust, of sustainability. The prevailing modern positivistic model of science for policy, known as 'evidence based policy', is based on dramatic simplifications and compressions of…

In science, safety can seem unfashionable. Satisfying safety requirements can slow the pace of research, make it cumbersome, or cost significant amounts of money. The logic of rules can seem unclear. Compliance can feel like a negative incentive. So besides the obvious benefit that safety keeps one safe, why do some…

The undergraduate transfer process has well-documented challenges, especially for those who identify with groups histori-cally excluded from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs. Because transfer students gain later access to university networking and research opportunities than…

The digitalization of processes in experimental laboratories often encounters obstacles with devices that lack connectivity with other systems. We propose a method to record and use values from such devices, demonstrating its effectiveness for weighing processes conducted using laboratory balances. Our developments…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping scientific research by accelerating discovery and enabling the analysis of complex data that traditional methods struggle to handle. This review examines over 310,000 journal articles and patents from the CAS Content Collection (2015–2025), with a focus on, biomedical research…

In philosophy and science, a first principle is a basic proposition or assumption that cannot be deduced from any other proposition or assumption. Ancient Greek philosophy Aristotle defined the first principle as “the first basis from which a thing is known.” First principles thinking (or reasoning from first…

The psychology of science is the least developed member of the family of science studies. It is growing, however, increasingly into a promising discipline. After a very brief review of this emerging sub-field of psychology, we call for it to be invited into the collection of social sciences that constitute the…
