![]() A Guide to Automatic Updates from HSR&D RSS, short for Really Simple Syndication, is a "feed" used to alert readers to new content. For the HSR&D website, the content in the RSS feeds links to recently updated citations from our researchers and centers, delivered directly to your computer. RSS content must be read using software called an "RSS reader," "feed reader" or an "aggregator," which can be web-based or desktop-based. HSR&D users can subscribe to our feeds either by clicking on the RSS icon for a particular topic, or by entering the feed's link into the selected reader. The RSS reader downloads any website updates that it finds so you can check your reader any time to look for new HSR&D content. A list of RSS feed readers is available on Wikipedia. Each reader works slightly differently, but the result is the same. And if you use a Google or other web browser homepage, you can choose to have it display our feeds. You will be kept up to date on the latest news and information on the HSR&D website. |

What are HSR&D Publication Briefs? HSR&D requires notification by HSR&D-funded investigators about all articles accepted for publication. These journal articles are reviewed by HSR&D and publication briefs or summaries are written for a select number of articles that are then forwarded to VHA Central Office leadership to keep them informed about important findings or information. Articles to be summarized are selected by HSR&D based on timeliness of the findings, interest of leadership, or potential impact on the organization. Publication briefs are written for only a small number of HSR&D published articles. Visit the HSR&D citations database for a complete listing of HSR&D articles and presentations. |
