  1. Really excited about ‘Wildcard Sources’.

    I try to read things like the Cochrane Collaboration and Science-Based Medicine especially when outside my fields.

    AASPIRE is good too.

    Media and information literacy are *imperative*. My younger self cut my teeth on marketing and on advertising.
