2014-08-02 14:24:06 Valéry Ridde from the University of Montreal has been posting extensively on health systems research on his Twitter account, sharing scientific articles, blog posts, comments, etc. and engaging stakeholders in an on-going reflection on access to health care, human resources for health, health system financing, and universal health coverage in LMICs. He also posts on relevant research methods to evaluate complex policies and interventions aiming at understanding better health systems. Last, but not least, he also posts in French, which is rare in our field, and should be promoted given the fact that there are around 25 French speaking countries in Africa, where an increasing proportion of research on health systems is conducted.
2014-08-03 10:41:03 Follow Valéry Ridde on Twitter and you have access to a wealth of information, latest news and interesting and relevant comments on health systems research, particulary in Francophone African countries. I recommend him to everyone, french or english-speaking, interested in this field!
2014-08-03 14:13:52 Votez pour Valéry Ridde pour que la recherche sur les systèmes de santé soit mieux diffusée en français !
2014-08-03 15:22:13 Valéry Ridde's dedication to knowledge translation is a powerful source of inspiration for the Francophone and Anglophone academic community working on global health systems research! For many young francophone researchers, such as myself, following Valéry Ridde on Twitter has become essential to keep updated with cutting-edge research results, news and opportunities. Twitter is only one of the numerous widely accessible methods that Valéry Ridde uses to share knowledge. You can also follow his team's work on this website (equitesante.org), slideshare (http://fr.slideshare.net/valery_ridde) and LinkedIn (ca.linkedin.com/pub/valéry-ridde/12/977/706/en).
2014-08-04 01:02:07 Valéry Ridde is ahead of his time through his tireless effort in spreading critical updates in public health, global health and health systems using various channels of social media. I acknowledge his outstanding contributions in much needed knowledge translation campaign in this field.
2014-08-05 11:55:03 Yay! He finds your papers before you!
2014-08-05 23:48:00 Valéry Ridde on twitter ! An inexhaustible source for those who are thirsty for knowledge and information on global health and recent developments in this research field .
2014-08-06 17:31:28 Bien entendu que je vote pour le Pr Valery Ridde ! Que ce soit au Québec, en Afghanistan, en France, en Haïti, en Afrique du Nord ou en Afrique sub-Saharienne, ses études et son savoir-faire ont mobilisés des milliers de "techniciens" de la santé et ses recherches participent à "remodeler" les vieux schémas et croyances totalement dépassés.
2014-08-06 18:04:13 Not only does Valery post extensively on his contributions to health system's research, he also posts and comments upon relevant work from other researchers.
2014-08-07 04:31:11 Valéry Ridde's commitment to tweeting relevant and timely research and other information is commendable. Not only does he share his own work, but he is active in sharing work of his students, collaborators, and peers. Valéry’s twitter stream also contains a wealth of knowledge from outside the scientific literature, and as he tweets at the crossroads of the interests of researchers, practitioners and public policy and decision-makers. Valéry Ridde is a boundary spanner – bridging Francophone and Anglophone scientific and practice communities, working to reach across geographical, cultural and jurisdictional borders between the global North and South, and participating in exchanges that engage multiple disciplines. He uses this approach for dissemination not only within his own field of health systems research but for public health research and practice at large.
2014-08-11 04:52:51 Allez Valéry!
2014-08-18 05:29:55 I'm really glad to see such support for Valery. His account is one of my three not so secret go tos every morning to get the low down on health systems - he *does* always find papers before anyone else! Valery does a great job of articulating the take home messages from research to create a consistent narrative around user fees, health workers, and the inclusion of developing country researchers among other themes. He's my top pick for this award!
2014-08-18 10:44:00 Balances being current and being consistently insightful
2014-09-04 18:23:55 valuable voice not only for all health systems and social justice issues, but also in providing a francophone perspective
2014-09-15 20:12:59 He is merely a great asset for knowledge sharing and knowledge brokering
2014-09-15 21:06:04 Impossible to follow Valery on twitter. He always has a couple of miles in advance. Thanks very much Val for this great work of knowledge sharing.
2014-09-18 22:45:13 Travailleur acharné, brillant chercheur, disponible et accessible, Valéry est un exemple exceptionnel de partage et de génération de connaissances.
2014-09-25 14:20:08 Un hombre muy inteligente, interesante y critico hacias los diferentes sistemas y organizaciones, pero lo mas importante es que tiene un corazon y una humildad inmesamente grande, un "don" que debe ser utilizado y admirado por sus colegas atravez del mundo .
