Last week we performed Canada’s first endoscopic-TLIF using the OptiMesh expandable cage 🇨🇦 🙌. This is a milestone I have been dreaming about for 3 years! Canadians now have access to ultra-minimally invasive methods for spinal fusion! @DCNSNeuro @CalgarySpine @yyc_health

Congratulations to HBI researcher Dr. Aaron Phillips, PhD, who has made a major neuroscience discovery! A pair of landmark studies were published describing how an implanted neurostimulation system successfully restored blood pressure stability in people with SCI.
Research led by #UCalgary’s Dr. Aaron Phillips, his team, and partners in Switzerland and the Netherlands has led to a life-changing technology that improves blood pressure regulation after spinal cord injury https://t.co/5uHd4TJn2J
