We’re fascinated by how all the bugs that colonize or infect the gut influence immunity. We use gnotobiotics, imaging and flow. We care about people & mentoring

@Lauriemcox @JenGommerman @naomi_fettig @pu_annie Thanks again Laurie for bringing us over the finish line on this!

Great collaborators can be game changers. It's been so rewarding working with her group investigating how age & the microbiota impact neurodegenerative disease. For more detail, check out @pu_annie & @naomi_fettig's pre-print! doi: https://t.co/y26cSlZhpa

Thanks @Lauriemcox for the opportunity to write this review - we all learned a lot. Big shout out to @naomi_fettig from @OsborneLab_UBC who did the heavy lifting and @pu_annie from my lab. A true UBC/UofT collaboration. https://t.co/QEqR4QRvNU

[Research Canada @ResearchCda]

Canadian health research has been chronically underfunded for the past two decades. As a result, the research ecosystem in this country is in serious trouble!

@DrSamGru @webdevMason !!! Thanks Sam!

[Kirsty Duncan @KirstyDuncanPhD]

Science and research are fundamental building blocks of Canada that require sustained attention, nurture and support. Our world class researchers and students wait, while peer countries increase funding. Time to invest in the granting councils and graduate scholarships.

@nkg2d1 Arthurrrrrr!!!! That’s such great news, congratulations!! Can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Altogether, today’s walk felt like a huge success. Great to see so many people coming together with the common goal of ending MS. Thanks to all who have donated!

[osbornelab_ubc (Lisa = she/her/hers) @OsborneLab_UBC]

Canada has one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis. Today, I’m walking to raise $$ for the Canadian MS Society to support their mission of supporting ppl living with MS. If you can, please consider donating here https://t.co/2stVjy9wMW via @DonorDrive

[osbornelab_ubc (Lisa = she/her/hers) @OsborneLab_UBC]

And a wonderful time walking with fellow MS researcher @jacquiequandt and her good friend who inspires and supports the work they do.

[osbornelab_ubc (Lisa = she/her/hers) @OsborneLab_UBC]

@naomi_fettig Had a wonderful chat w @SRoman_SPQR about how perspectives of people living with MS can and should be taken into account to drive basic and clinical research. She takes this to heart, explaining MS research for lay audiences at https://t.co/1M09T8gS3D

[osbornelab_ubc (Lisa = she/her/hers) @OsborneLab_UBC]

Our talented grad students Annie Pu & @naomi_fettig are doing the heavy lifting, keep an eye out for their findings later this year!
