Time to draw a line: Journal editors must protect scientific independence

I am extremely proud that our journal will continue to support diversity, equity and inclusion in research. With the US executive order in place, it would be remiss to not acknowledge how this can hurt not only the people impacted, but science moving forward: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Just joined Bluesky! 👋

I'm a PhDc passionate about exercise training & cardiovascular rehabilitation.

📍 Exercise Physiology and Cardiovascular Health Lab / University of Ottawa Heart Institute 🇨🇦

Excited to connect! 🫀🏃‍♀️📚

Humanities and sciences are all in the same boat. We need to act like it or we all drown.

Highly recommended! 👇 #RegenerativeMedicine

ANNOUNCEMENT:
It is that time of the year when I start filling the guest list for @einstein_agogo on @3RRRFM. Last year we had some 150 guests from all areas of research.
So if you are interested, DM me the details! PhD students and ECR/MCRs most welcome! Must be Melbourne based.

It really is quite something that there are still so many making money of saying this isn’t happening.
The day after tomorrow is already here.

Ultrasound frequency-controlled microbubble dynamics in brain vessels regulate the enrichment of inflammatory pathways in the blood-brain barrier - Nature Communications The impact of ultrasound-controlled microbubble dynamics on the blood-brain barrier remains largely unexplored. Through theoretical and experimental research, the authors show that microbubble resonan...

Microbubbles can be used as contrast agent to visualize blood-flow using ultrasounds. But did you know that fine-tuning their resonance can modulate blood-brain barrier signaling and function? 🤩 #cerebrovascular www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I have interviewed 149 people on @einstein_agogo @3RRRFM so far this year.
We have one show left for the year.
I feel a need to do one more interview. My brain would be far more comfortable with 150.
What do people think?

So your Attention Score went down because people are rage-deleting their Twitter accounts.

Why is that happening? Should I be worried? Should I see my doctor?

Let's get into what the Attention Score actually is, how it's impacted by posts and deletions, WITH THE HELP OF MEMES.

Can treating depression mitigate the excess cardiometabolic risk of people living with serious mental illness? A national primary-care based trial is the largest ever to determine whether lifestyle therapy is

Grateful to Medical Journal of Australia Insight + mag for featuring this piece on the role of dietitians & exercise physiologists in managing mental health and our current opportunity for GPs to refer their patients to our national trial #behavioralscience
