Thrilled to see our latest work out in ⁦@NatureComms⁩, supporting that hemodynamic management that targets the heart may improve spinal cord and CV outcomes in high-level #spinalcordinjury. Huge effort from ⁦@DrCRWest⁩ and Brian Kwon’s teams! nature.com/articles/s4146…

@RyanLeoHoiland there's an even better participant I'm scanning!

Superstar! 🤩

Griffith Pugh (1909 –1994) was a pioneer of exercise #physiology, specialising in human adaptation to #extremeenvironments. @MikeStembridge tells us about Pugh’s painstaking field research to address real-world problems.🧵1/6 🔗physoc.org/blog/the-legac… Image: Alex Williams

Excited to be featured in the latest issues of @UBCmedicine Pathways Magazine!

@DrCRWest @CameronMGee Congrats Cam!

Super proud of @CameronMGee for publishing the final chapter out of his stellar PhD. If you're interested in heart-lung physiology in spinal cord injury check it out! Thanks also to all co-authors (@AlexM_Williams and others) and all participants! physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

@RyanLeoHoiland and the little things are often big things! Great perspective

Academia is wild. I find the weight of long-term struggles can be almost completely erased in an instant with the smallest breakthrough or ‘win’. Whether it’s successful data collection, positive results, finishing a paper, or publishing. Focussing on the ‘wins’ always helps!

@Mypster2 @SamShemie @sonnydhanani @CARickardsPhD @Pat_Brassard @RyanLeoHoiland @shanfernands @adamdavidthomas @yourICM @chiara_robba @Menon_Cambridge THIS IS RAD!

@NeurosciAmanda @VCHResearch Congrats Amanda!!

Thank you @VCHResearch! Looking forward to the finals 🤩

@RyanLeoHoiland @CHLVH_UBCO and the entire rest of the day after that!! 🔥💃🏻🍻

@AlexM_Williams @CHLVH_UBCO Fire is now happening Saturday morning 🔥

Starting to get stoked to attend the @CHLVH_UBCO Okanagan Cardiovascular & Respiratory Symposium next month. First in person conference in years. Will be great to see old friends and make new friends. Who’s going, let’s grab a pint 🍺

New in @JAMANeuro from @vghncc! Utility of biomarkers for neuro-prognostication following cardiac arrest. Thanks to Dr. Kiran Rikhraj, @nafergusson, @Mypster2, @dgriesdale, Prof. Cheryl Wellington (@DMCBrainHealth), and the rest of the team. @ubc_anes @UBCDoM @UBCmedicine @ubc 🧠

@RyanLeoHoiland @balkhaz @Pat_Brassard @Mypster2 @balkhaz oh it never left!! 🔥🔥🔥

@balkhaz @Pat_Brassard @Mypster2 @AlexM_Williams has been doing everything she can to keep it going!🔥

During an impromptu coffee with @Mypster2 late 2018 I asked about running a transfusion project. Ideas grew and prelim studies began. We just received #CIHR funding to investigate the impact of transfusion on 🧠oxygenation in hypoxic-ischemic 🧠injury. Feeling immense gratitude!

@RyanLeoHoiland @Mypster2 WHOAWHOAWHOAA!! Congrats team!!!

@Mypster2 @ubcokanagan @CerebriUbc @UBC_HES Rockstar!!!

This BP measurement seems legit 🙄

@DrKurtosis With you, always Dr Kurtosis!!

@AlexM_Williams Can we still go to the pub after?

Online / hybrid formats massively lower the carbon footprint of meetings. I’d also argue they’re more feasible & accessible to trainees. While I prefer in-person events, organizers should make the hybrid model a staple moving forward. #academictwitter reddit.com/r/science/comm…
