Eye-opening presentation by Neila Miled at today's @ubcpathology PALS session. Sure, you may be non-racist, but that's not enough! Are you an #ally and do you take ACTION to be #antiracist? For example, have you checked your manuscript references for IBPOC representation?🧐

Thank you to the #CBR_EWD2021 organizers for including such an important topic in today’s symposium. An even bigger thank you to @james_paulad for continuing to address knowledge gaps in women’s health!
Replying to @CBR_UBC
Pleased to hear from Dr. @james_paulad of @QueensPathology about "Challenges facing women with #bleeding disorders". Thanks for sharing insights on this important topic today. 5/n

Wild to think about how it’s been over a decade since I started high school! Such a pleasure catching up with the @edgeschool community ☺️
Marie-Soleil Smith spent three years at Edge in our dance program (class of 2013). She has since went to UBC for her Bachelor of Science (2018) and is currently working on her PhD in Pathology and Laboratory Medicine. Watch the alumni spotlight here: youtu.be/1jfYvQVA04E

I wish I had this slide by Dr. Eric Cohen available every time someone asks me "Why bother to a PhD in HIV? Isn't that problem 'solved'?" 😬 #HIVresearchmatters #CAHR2021 @CAHR_ACRV

So many fun facts and stats used to comment on decision making, thank you @CaulfieldTim for being so awesome and engaging this morning at the #WHRISym21 LOVED the use of physical papers to highlight your points!!!
Soon: Speaking at the 6th Annual Women’s Health Research Symposium. Thrilled to be involved! cc @WomensResearch #WHRISym21 Will explore our chaotic information environment & argue that, yep, debunking works! Warm up with our evidence-informed infographic! #GoScience

Today I am grateful for @Office AutoRecover. Instead of losing 2 hours of work when my computer delivered me the blue screen of death, I just lost 10 minutes. Note to self, SAVE #save SAVE

Do you know what U=U means? Spreading the word that an undetectable viral load prevents HIV transmission between sexual partners can help reduce HIV stigma. You can learn more about U=U here: catie.ca/en/positiveside/sum…
