BACKGROUND: The integration of lived experience within mental health research remains inconsistent, with many models positioning lived experience in advisory rather than embedded roles. This can limit meaningful engagement and reduce the relevance and translational impact of research. APPROACH: Drawing on an ongoing five-year Welcome Trust-funded programme investigating sleep and circadian rhythm disturbances in youth-onset mood disorders, this v…
Periodization as Decolonization
This piece argues that a greater understanding of the role of regions in Russian history could lead to different ways of writing Russian history that need not center the state. By including a wider range of intellectual and political actors from the regions, as well as tracing the long connections between them and Ukrainian thinkers, such a history would make regions subjects rather than simply objects. The original post and the significant numbe…

Barriers and facilitators associated with establishment of emergency department‐initiated buprenorphine for opioid use disorder in rural Maine
PURPOSE: The opioid epidemic in the United States continues to grow, particularly impacting rural communities served by critical access hospitals (CAHs) in Maine. Buprenorphine is an effective medication for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) that can be successfully initiated in the emergency department (ED). However, many EDs have not implemented programs to initiate buprenorphine. This study sought to identify barriers and facilitators…
Peter Whitewood. The Red Army and the Great Terror
The historiography of the Great Purges of 1936–1938 has long been dominated by the notion that the purges—including the purges of the Red Army that began in earnest in the spring of 1937—were part of a longer-term and almost systematic process by which Stalin consolidated his hold on power. As Peter Whitewood suggests in the introduction to The Red Army and the Great Terror, the most common interpretation of the purges of the army has Stalin laun…
The Red Army and the Second World War
In a definitive new account of the Soviet Union at war, Alexander Hill charts the development, successes and failures of the Red Army from the industrialisation of the Soviet Union in the late 1920s through to the end of the Great Patriotic War in May 1945. Setting military strategy and operations within a broader context that includes national mobilisation on a staggering scale, the book presents a comprehensive account of the origins and course…

The Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union, 1941-45
This book consists of extracts from key documents, along with commentary and further reading, on the ‘Great Patriotic War’ of the Soviet Union against Nazi Germany, 1941-45. Despite the historical significance of the war, few Soviet documents have been published in English. This work provides translations of a range of extracts from Soviet documents relating to the titanic struggle on the Eastern Front during World War II, with commentary. This i…
The partisan war in north-west Russia 1941–44
This article examines the extent to which the limited achievements of the Soviet partisan movement in north-west Russia during the first months of the Great Patriotic War can be attributed largely to inadequacies in the organisation, leadership, equipment and training of the movement as emphasised in Soviet and post-Soviet Russian published works. On the basis of Soviet archival sources the author concludes that while these factors were important…
