For the record, voting in our federal election took me a little under half an hour today. 10 minutes to walk from home to the public school where my polling station was located. 5 minutes to vote. And then 10 minutes to walk back home. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦#CanadaVotes #CanadaElections2025

Thank-you @CCCTBG_Canada for the opportunity to share our pediatric translational research on early sepsis biomarkers in @SQUEEZE_Trial participants!
A fantastic @CCCTBG_Canada meeting at Lake Louise! ⛰️❄️🇨🇦 Exciting translational research on the gut microbiome, biological sex and adaptive immunity in sepsis, IMPACT-ICU, post-ICU recovery, traumatic brain injury, cardiac dysfunction, and mechanisms of septic shock.
