Incredible research from our own Dr. Arlinda Ruco! In collab w/@UniMelb, @UofT, @uOttawa, & @ICESOntario, her study shows a colonoscopy reduces colorectal cancer risk for over 15 years. Published in @TheLancet, this could update screening guidelines. https://t.co/VcIlIMc6as

@stfxuniversity tour of African Nova Scotian communities: Tracadie, Lincolnville, & Sunnyville. Y'all, we went to church! Community led the tour, pastors preached, Elders sang, & we stood on the sight of the last Black Segregated School that closed in 1983.
Thrilled to be a part of the second annual #PEIalcoholforum. Our fearless leader, Dr. Thompson has the pleasure of presenting on the topic of Health and Safety Messages.
