If you are interested in sports and exercise, the Canadian Journal of Cardiology has an excellent, newly released special issues on this topic:

Friendly reminder: if you are waiting on something from a US-based scientist/reviewer/editor, please realize that we're barely making it through each day putting out non-stop fires and trying not to collapse into tears. We're trying our best, but things will take longer right now. Give grace.

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

Humanities and sciences are all in the same boat. We need to act like it or we all drown.
Not to minimize what catastrophic damage is happening in science and medicine with funding, but your humanities colleagues have been in this defund and delegitimize spiral for a decade or more. We have lost tenure lines despite increased enrollment. When they attack higher ed, it’s an attack

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.

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...
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...

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?

Tracking heart rate #intensity in exercise trials can be challenging. Excited to share #code written by @briabartsch to analyze HR responses after each study visit to ensure scientific rigor in our trials. #ExercisePhysiology 💻💓 See the sample image & link to the code below.

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.

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️

So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality?

So well deserved 😊 I am very fortunate to have Jennifer as a mentor!
What a truly wonderful Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology meeting.

From catching up & meeting w/ so many inspiring academics & exercise-based practitioners, to giving the President’s Lecture, & then receiving the CSEP Mentorship Award … my cup is full.
