Favourite memory from #AACPDM2023: Bumping into @PONIlabresearch, the Mertens family, and @trexorobotics star, Alex, at @fly2ohare. With a 30mins flight delay back to #YYC, Alex, who spent the week walking in her #Trexo, finally tried our #Think2Switch BCI setup! 1/2

Proud to share our 🇦🇺🇨🇦 important work in the field of #pediatricstroke published this week @JAMANeuro which demonstrates “better clinical outcomes with thrombectomy than medical management alone for pediatric anterior circulation LVO” @DrNeuroNaut @PMuthusami @CarmenPFarinas 👏🏻

[SickKids Paediatric Neurovascular Program @SickKidsNV]

Check out our new publication in @JAMANeuro!! This case-control study demonstrates better clinical outcomes with EVT than medical management alone for pediatric patients with anterior circulation LVO!! https://t.co/v1dRTFP7gH

[Department of Pediatrics @UCalgaryPeds]

Check out this incredible publication that takes a look at the cortical morphological changes in the brains of children, adolescents and young adults with perinatal stroke. Amazing work!

Day 1 at #AbilitiesExpo was amazing!💥A 3-yr-old creating #BrainArt with a #BCI? It happened with our #Think2Switch! We’re not just bridging the gap, we’re erasing it, making brain-controlled tech accessible for everyone, of every age! 🧠🎨 More fun today and tmw at booth 820 🚀

Why we need more awareness for #PediatricStroke >> Hundreds of children have a #stroke each year — but half their parents don't even consider that possibility https://t.co/rKMPavhrUf /via @ABCaustralia
