Improving audit and feedback: A user-centred approach to designing feedback techniques for an online experiment.

Audit and feedback (A&F) programmes aim to improve patient care by providing summary data on performance to clinicians. They generally have modest, but variable, effects on patient care and questions remain about how best to provide performance feedback. It is not feasible to test all ways of providing feedback in 'real-world' randomised trials.

Using DNA barcoding to identify high-priority taxa (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) from Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

The All Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (ATBI) in Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP) seeks to document every species of living thing in the park. The ATBI is decades in progress, yet some taxa remain virtually untouched by taxonomists. Such "high priority" taxa include the hyper-diverse parasitoid wasp family Ichneumonidae.

Azo-functionalised metal-organic framework for charge storage in sodium-ion batteries.

Sodium-ion batteries (NIBs) are emerging as promising devices for energy storage applications. Porous solids, such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), are well suited as electrode materials for technologies involving bulkier charge carriers. However, only limited progress has been made using pristine MOFs, primarily due to lack of redox-active organic groups in the materials.

A randomised fractional factorial screening experiment to predict effective features of audit and feedback.

Background: Audit and feedback aims to improve patient care by comparing healthcare performance against explicit standards. It is used to monitor and improve patient care, including through National Clinical Audit (NCA) programmes in the UK. Variability in effectiveness of audit and feedback is attributed to intervention design; separate randomised trials to address multiple questions about how to optimise effectiveness would be inefficient.
