Such a pleasure to have had the opportunity to work with such an amazing team, towards better characterizing the clinical course of depression and detecting relapse using wearable monitors (actigraphy)
Actigraphy-derived measures of sleep phase variability and activity amplitude identified individuals at higher risk of relapse in #Depression, supporting their potential as scalable biomarkers in ongoing monitoring.

Immoral AND nonsensical. People don’t become *less* homeless when you throw away their tents and their belongings in the rain. They don’t cease to exist. If homelessness is such a nuisance to the city, consider actually DOING something to solve it @cityofhamilton@HamiltonsMayor
Best of luck to the McMaster MD class starting tomorrow! A word of advice from a second year (feels weird to say) - med school flies by, take time to reflect on how far you've come, how hard you've worked, and most importantly, enjoy the moment! You're all going to be amazing!

An unsurprising result of the many systematic barriers to applying to medical school, including the MCAT ($ to take, time = $ to study, $ for prep courses), $ to apply to med school, time = $ for volunteering and unpaid research etc. We need to do better!
