Reflecting on @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023 and as a trainee, going every year, seeing the same faces - it’s a great way to measure the ways I’ve grown from one meeting to the next and identify the many (‼️) ways I can be better

Energized and ready to take on this next year 🤝

@AshleyAWeaver @spinesinspace @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023 haha thanks Dr. Weaver!!! Hope you’re doing well!

[Jeannie Bailey, PhD @spinesinspace]

And as completely no surprise at all… @karimkhattab__ won best special poster talk for @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023 congrats karim!!!

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

Big shout out to Jeannie and the rest of the team - glad I get to work with and learn from such a great group with such a great mentor (and hype-woman)!

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

love talking all things muscle with fellow muscle brainiacs 🤓 and I LOVE the special poster format at @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023 so many great discussions!

[Jeannie Bailey, PhD @spinesinspace]

Another day, another outstanding talk by @karimkhattab__ and Lucas Dziesinski on comparing spatial distribution of muscle quality using different MRI sequences at @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023

My graduate student @karimkhattab__ presenting on his work comparing patient biomechanics and muscle quality… and completely showing me up before I presented right after. @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

haha thanks Jeannie - I’m learning from the best! loved presenting my work today at @ISSLS_Society @SpineWeek2023

@AshleyAWeaver Thanks Dr. Weaver!!!

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

So excited to share this - a lot of time, dedication and hard work from my favorite researchers and collaborators! A spatial approach to measuring patterns of fatty infiltration in the paraspinal muscles - take a look!

[Jeannie Bailey, PhD @spinesinspace]

New paper from @karimkhattab__ and the rest of our group on spatial distribution patterns of paraspinal muscle fat infiltration (Fat maps!) and chronic low back pain. @UCSFOrthosurg @EurSpineJournal

@justinxzhong Thanks Justin!

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

it’s day 3 (4?) of the @ISSLS_Society conference and the invited speakers are none other than Dr. White and Dr. Panjabi of ‘Clinical Biomechanics of the Spine’!!!! The Shaq and Kobe of spine biomechanics!!!! Excited to hear from them later today!!! #ISSLS

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

excited to have had the opportunity to present our work!

[Jeannie Bailey, PhD @spinesinspace]

Great talk in best papers session on spatial distribution of fat infiltration in the paraspinal muscles by ⁦@karimkhattab__⁩ #ISSLS2022 ⁦@ISSLS_Society⁩

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

oh no! I’ve been caught with bad posture at a spine conference 🙈💀 I promise it’s nothing less than perfect alignment from here on out 😂😂 #practiceWhatYouPreach

regardless - love talking spine with such great minds 🧠 at ISSLS

[Jeannie Bailey, PhD @spinesinspace]

Talking spine at #issls2022 @karimkhattab__ @NBonnheim and twitter Stefan Dudli @ISSLS_Society

[Karim Khattab @karimkhattab__]

hey look it’s me! glad to have my first ~in person~ talk in the books but even more grateful for such a great PI - thanks Jeannie!!!

[Jeannie Bailey, PhD @spinesinspace]

Great talk by @karimkhattab__ on paraspinal muscle fat distribution patterns and low back pain at the @UCSFOrthosurg research retreat!

[UCSF Musculoskeletal Center @ucsfmskcenter]

CCMBM Junior Investigator Karim Khattab, PhD Candidate #UCBUCSFBioE will present "Spatial Distribution of Fat Infiltration within the Paraspinal Muscles and it's Relationship to Adjacent Degenerative IVD Pathology" @UCSFOrthosurg RIPS on Nov 3, 12pm PST. ➡️https://t.co/EbjHaG8nCn

How do muscles work? What are the implications of this?

Yesterday's lecture by Walter Herzog answered these and many other questions. You can watch it in full here: https://t.co/K8vPDnrKNU
