Very excited to be joining the University of Toronto Anesthesiology Residency Program! Extremely grateful to my incredible mentors for their inspiration and support!

@AurelieBussy Yes!!! Congratulations, Dr. Bussy 🥳

I am delighted to announce that I successfully defended my thesis yesterday! 🎓🥳 These past 4.5 years have been incredibly enriching, and I am grateful to everybody who has helped me in becoming the neuroscientist I am today.

We also showed an expected increase in SNR following the upgrade. Power analyses were also performed to guide future work. The findings should be considered in longitudinal study designs and are also relevant to large-scale initiatives incorporating data from multiple sites.

As part of the "vNav Protocol", we compared a sequence with volumetric navigators against a standard T1-weighted acquisition sequence, and reported upon ROIs within which CT and volume estimates had suboptimal reliability or differed between MPRAGE and vNav-MPRAGE sequences.

So honored to publish my first paper in CoBrA Lab with the sagacious @mallarchkrvrty1 and the brilliant @eric_plitman and @elisa_guma! rdcu.be/ciBnP Systematic review of acute cannabis exposure and neuroimaging.

So happy to publish my first first author paper with @DrJaiShah! I learned SO much in the process and its an honor to see the work from my rotation come to fruition! bit.ly/2LbdCKB

@DrJaiShah Thanks Jai! Next is medical school at UofT, which I am very excited for 🙂

@eric_plitman Great reflections Eric. What’s next for you?

As I prepare to restart school tomorrow, I'm left reflecting on my 7 years of PhD and postdoc life. A couple takeaways resonate above all else. First and foremost, much more important than the work you do is the people you do it with.

Thank you to the CoBrA, MMIG, and MTR crews for the non-stop laughs. See you soon (likely later tonight), research world! Now, what is gametogenesis and may someone please remind me what a test is?

Second, don't take yourself too seriously. The most productive and enjoyable environments that I've been a part of over the last 7 years have involved more laughing than stressing, not limited to World Cup power outages, 4am basketball, and delicious food.

Excited to share out posters starting tomorrow @OHBM. See the thread below for a complete listing of all things CoBrA Lab! Poster 1320 (hour 1): "Voxel Size, Shape, and Uncertainty in Volumetric Segmentation" Cool work on the impact of resolution on vol seg by @gadevenyi
