PhD is officially done! Couldn’t have done it without the support from friends, family, and my incredible coworkers and mentors @BrockUniversity ! So honoured to have also received the Spirit of Brock award, I’ll always cherish my time as a Badger 🦡

In case you missed my talk @CosparHQ , the work I presented was just published in NPJ Microgravity! Read about it in the thread below ⬇️🧵
Take a look at our new article led by @jess_l_braun ! https://t.co/QURbrHMOja In this study, we follow up on our previous work showing that ~1 month of spaceflight impairs SERCA function - an effect we attribute to ROS damage.

In this work, driven by amazing postdoc in our team @A_Irazoki, we found that adaptations to cancer in mice critically depend on housing temperature.

Cancer cachexia is a metabolic condition affecting up to 80% of patients with cancer. Cachexia is mediated by reduced muscle and fat mass and impaired function, and it lowers survival for patients....

It’s been a year since we lost brother Craig Bowman to a courageous battle with occupational illness. His presence will always be with our members every single day. Craig’s sacrifice sparked massive changes to firefighter latency periods for esophageal cancer & led to Bill 149

Fantastic experience as always with @ChrisRand22 and @AuroraSci. Grateful to get to share our experience and very excited to get our data out in the near future 😁
Always great to catch up with @ValFajardoPhD, @jess_l_braun and @briana_hockey from my old stomping ground @BrockUniversity. If you want to find out how the mission went, you're not going to want to miss this 👇.

Honoured to have been recognized with this award! The GSM program in Niagara is something I’m very proud of - if you’re interested in getting involved (we have chapters across Canada!) please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Congrats @jess_l_braun!! You never cease to amaze!! Nothing short of inspiring.

Several mammal species live in cold-water environments thanks to adaptations like blubber & large size. A notable exception is the sea otter—so how does it stay warm? A 2021 Science study found an answer: skeletal muscle thermogenesis. https://t.co/nXTROkpM5s
