Pharmacare is once again on the policy agenda in Canada: there is a window of opportunity to improve the current situation.
This new IRPP study by Fiona Clement and Michael Law “National Pharmacare: Laying the Groundwork,” demonstrates how to get there.

With the plan for National Pharmacare slated to be introduced by March 1, please join us for the @CHSPR conference, PharmaWhere?, on March 5. The early-bird deadline is 2 weeks away! Details and registration at chspr.ubc.ca/conference/ #pharmacare

I've read @WIRED since I was a teenager, so it's pretty cool to have them cover our @LancetGH analysis of drones. Kudos to @laxmevy for a great piece, @MPNisingizwe for leading this work, and @RBCRwanda for the great collaboration.

Our newest paper led by the awesome @alison_mcclean in @CMAJ
Our original working title was "Failure to Launch" which is a great way coined by @myclaw to describe Canada's experience with #biosimilars so far.
@CHSPR @UofTPharmacy
NEW ODPRN study in @CMAJ on the use of #biosimilars in Canada finds that market entry alone is not enough to ensure high levels of biosimilar use which can be strengthened through harmonization of policies, education, and collaboration with manufacturers cmaj.ca/content/194/15/E556

Drones get blood to patients faster—and reduce waste: @ubcspph researchers partner with researchers in Rwanda 🇷🇼 news.ubc.ca/2022/03/16/drone… #NewsTip
When Rwanda started using drones for blood delivery, it decreased delivery times and reduced product expiration. Great to be part of this study led by @MPNisingizwe including our friends at @RBCRwanda that was just published in @LancetGH. Full article: authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…
