Hiding from the real world by playing scientist. Our lab’s focus is pulmonary surfactant, acute lung injury and pulmonary drug delivery.

Moving lectures online, mine may not be the most exciting but you wouldn’t be able to tell from the trailer

One of the best part of science: collaborations. Really enjoyed this (relatively small) study initiated by colleagues in Helsinki, Finland on spontaneous edema formation in hunting dogs.

Happy to have played a small (no pun intended) part in this.

Thanks to @bauhaus242 @drcnatale @MH_Sarikahya, and Sebastian Vanin for their hard work on Kendrick Lee’s latest @CannabisJrnl publication related to the adverse effects of prenatal CBD exposure on cardiac function in early postnatal life. https://t.co/4g45RrQZ0m

Evidence that you do grad school in our lab, be a Buffalo Sabres fan, and yet still have an amazing career (as well, clean up nicely for a picture 😀). Congrats Pramod!

Proud to be appointed Division Director of the Harvey E Beardmore Division of Pediatric Surgery. Looking forward to continuing the growth of the Division. Congrats to @DrSherifEmil for his leadership the past 15 years.

Social media execs pretend to do something about the harmful effects its platforms have on children but in reality do the very minimal. [*Share this cartoon on social media.]

Some people from the Dept of Physiology and Pharmacology dress the part. @seangillPIIRL @DBHardyLab

An old pic because i forgot to take one at the grad club yesterday. We were celebrating that one of the people in this pic received the Order of Ontario. Congrats Fred!

@RBgeginski And thank you for the amazing pictures!

We also do science (surfactant, vaping, aging, sepsis, etc) but our real talent is jumping in the air at the finish line of the santa shuffle 5k run.

@DBHardyLab Look inside the pubs….

@BeierLab @CarolDyckGPO @clpin007 Yeah, my first Halloween in the building too; good thing i bought only candy i liked.

[Ruud Veldhuizen @RuudVeldhuizen]

I may say something more profound later, for now it is just: "Yes! it is out...."

Last night, reminiscing about a lab Halloween party from over 20years ago, someone said “that was when Yao dressed up as a western blot”, and I said, “no, that was an RNAse protection assay”…… and then all of a sudden it hit me; I am a nerd.

[Ruud Veldhuizen @RuudVeldhuizen]

I don’t often post links to news in Dutch, but when I do it is about how the dangers sepsis will be enhanced due to our aging population. Good to see them raise awareness about this. https://t.co/f8cGFlWS3C
