There's few bigger compliments for a mentor than when a trainee is willing to move 3500 km to keep working with you.

So proud of @_JuliaRickard's perseverance to complete such an impactful MSc during the pandemic!

The #KirkhamLab had a great first experience at the Ontario Exercise Physiology conference. it was a packed 2 days of #science, discussion, #exercise, and social time.
We'll be back!

[Julia Rickard @_JuliaRickard]

Exciting news! My research project looking at cardiometabolic and lifestyle determinants of #cvd risk in #breastcancer survivors has been approved by the @uk_biobank. Excited to work on this with the #KirkhamLab @amyakirkham @Bexit90 @StephanieSmall_ https://t.co/321dkDcHNW

[Kelcey Bland, PhD @kelceybland]

Older adults are understudied in #oncology, including in #exercise trials.

📣 Our thoughts on an important new exercise RCT in older adults w/ advanced #cancer. Great work ⁦@StephanieSmall_⁩ leading this! ⁦@amyakirkham⁩ ⁦@_JuliaRickard⁩ https://t.co/iD4YQrfIo4

[Dr. Amy Kirkham @amyakirkham]

The #Kirkhamlab is growing!

Funded MSc & PhD positions are available.

Projects focus on cardiometabolic health of women w/ cancer or CVD using imaging, biosensors, biomarker, CPET outcomes and nutrition, exercise, or cardiac rehab interventions.

[Julia Rickard @_JuliaRickard]

Key findings include: 1. Majority of multimodal rehab programs do not evaluate/mange #cvdrisk nor require elevated risk for enrolment 2. Programs still significantly improved fitness and QoL suggesting viable solution for cancer associated complications, including CVD risk
