Stay safe today, Illinois! Dangerously hot temperatures are moving through our entire state. Make sure to stay safe and hydrated. Find a local cooling center and other helpful information like how to stay energy-efficient during a heat wave at keepcool.Illinois.gov.

Reminder about the upcoming ISDM conference for all things #shareddecisionmaking #SDM - get your workshops and abstracts ready by December!

I feel honoured to receive this award. SMDM has had a strong influence on my research and supportive research community. Thank you
