2014-09-08 02:04:52 Combines both insightful and humorous posts on twitter that reveal a passion for health systems and social justice, without taking herself too seriously...something we could all learn from. Also a voice from the global South that appreciates neglected issues such as gender, whose research is filled with empathy for the people that make up health systems on the frontlines.

2014-09-08 14:31:02 Karen is methodologically rigorous, concisely communicative, and caring. She has acted as a social linker of a number of different networks in the last few months through her social media activity (and from which I and my networks have benefited from extensively!).
