Very proud that my first ever paper on finding a new syphilis treatment is officially out! Thank you to @JulesDressler @jutraslab nature.com/articles/s4425…

@kvlithgow You are a superstar!

So excited to receive an award for my oral presentation at #STIHIV on protease activity in vaginal bacteria! I had to sneak off to another meeting and missed the awards ceremony, but congrats to all the other awardees!

(1/2) It was an honor to receive an award at #stihiv2023 for my talk with other exceptional early career scholars! Thank you again @ASTDA1 @isstdr @InfoASHA (and everyone I can’t tag) for an amazing first STI confrence!

Delighted to have a poster presentation on Ireland’s response to mpox @isstdr World Congress of STIs & HIV in Chicago. I highlight the success of the community-led, collaborative and multi-phased approach we took. Check it out at stand 222 #STIHIV2023 @HIVIreland

Face of the future: 25% of attendees and oral presenters at #STIHIV2023 were intentionally early career investigators, and what a great future we will have

Incoming @ASTDA1 president #AbbyNorrisTurner announces the best oral presentations by early career scholars at #STIHIV2023 yeah for the future!!!!!!!

As a postdoc, I spend 70% of my income on rent alone. I am often not able to afford clothes and groceries without putting more on my credit card. I do not know what is going to happen with student loans kick back into repayment. Postdocs are struggling in CA. @UAW5810

The Cameron Lab at UVic is looking to hire a Research Tech to join our team investigating everyone's favourite enigma: T. pallidum. Projects include developing novel diagnostics, vaccine development, and investigations into pathogenic mechanisms.See here: cameronlaboratory.com/opportunities/…

Did you know that the syphilis-causing bacterium Treponema pallidum encodes miniproteins that have anti-bacterial activity? Have a look at this freshly published study led by our neighbours the Cameron lab! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

@minisciencegirl She always is!

@SeanWaugh7 That looks intense! Is Caroline cheering you on?🤣

This picture is a great throwback to my first emergence from lockdown!

I love them 🥺

@SendDopaminePls @lynnlynnlavel21 @TruemanRory @taniakarmaflaro @Roolive875489 @WolfredNelson @JustinTrudeau @SendDopaminePls don’t worry about arguing with people on Twitter as internet arguments go absolutely nowhere. It’s frustrating and if they haven’t been able to grasp the benefit of vaccines by now it’s unlikely they will. Take care!

With a few strokes of a pen 40 years ago today, Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms was adopted. Built around our shared values of equality, justice, and freedom, it protects the rights and freedoms that define who we are as Canadians – and brings us closer as a country.

@bogialex @PassiveStein @MarinaGlogovac @DFisman 5-fold reduction in infectious viral load in immunized individuals. This is a major reduction that’ll decrease spread. See here: nature.com/articles/s4159…

@PassiveStein @MarinaGlogovac @DFisman How much less do they spread it?

Thread: The phrase 'sworn police officer' means sworn to uphold the law. Deliberate undermining of the #RuleOfLaw by sworn @CalgaryPolice officers must be swiftly and harshly shut down. This has nothing to do with what the #ThinBlueLine does or does not represent #yyc /1

We have a basement suite in our home here in Kelowna that we rent out. It's neat, tidy, and affordable (about 30% below avg). Our tenant is moving out May 1st, so I posted an ad. The response has been overwhelming, and kinda troubling...
