Why is fruit so so sweet lately?? In the middle of Canadian winter...and then I found this weird mold growing on old oranges, which I've never seen before... what's going on? @CBCNews @cbcmarketplace @CBCTheNational @CBC @CTVNews @ctvedmonton @GlobalEdmonton

Thank you UAlberta Dept of Pediatrics for the wonderful trainee celebration event this afternoon, and for the delicious snack pack!! Both were very much enjoyed #UofAPeds #pediatrics #UAlberta @UAlberta @UAlberta_FoMD @JudithChrystal @TamaraVineberg

@EmergingFgsr @PedsResp @abhealth Thank you! It definitely is an exciting and truly interdisciplinary research juncture...I look forward to continuing to explore the multitude of diverse and timely applications which may emerge from this work!

Learning about COVID-19 vaccines & kids with @DrPaulOffit at @PASMeeting #PAS2021 in light of approved use for kids 12+. Well said: choosing not to get vaccinated is not a risk-free decision, you're simply trading 1 risk (ex. fear of adverse effects) for a bigger risk (ex. MIS-C)

@Valerie89Miller @Research4Babies @numerix Thank you! Using the digital simulator to facilitate distance simulation training during COVID, as well as measuring changes in providers' performance in the delivery room after training, and subsequent improved health outcomes for patients!

Check out my research poster as part of the #UAlbertaInnovationShowcase describing how serious games and digital simulation media improve training and assessment for neonatal resuscitation providers #UAlbertaInnovationShowcaseHealth @Research4Babies @numerix

@ThemStem Thank you! So far, we've used the game at the Royal Alex Hospital for this research, as well as put on a tournament-style training bootcamp with some of the @UAlberta_FoMD residents. Medical educators from Texas also have plans to roll out the board game with their learners!

Approx. 10% or 13 million newborns each year need help to breathe at birth. Healthcare providers need frequent training to safely provide this lifesaving care. My research leverages gamification & technology to build engaging simulation training tools #UAlbertaInnovationShowcase

@PramodhYapa @ualbertaPhysics @quantumalberta @ABInnovates @UAlbertaFGSR Very cool work, and presented super clearly - can I ask what are the potential applications/implications of superfluids, and how do they differ for a superfluid crystal?

[Simran Ghoman @simranghoman]

@dnamolecul Very interesting and important research! Did you compare your methodology with the standard GC FID method? How did those compare? Is your method non-inferior, or even better at detecting PHB than GC FID?

[Simran Ghoman @simranghoman]

@jamesbenoit How did recruitment go? What are the backgrounds and lived experiences of the pediatric parents on your advisory panel?

@EmergingFgsr @CIHR_IRSC @WCHRIUofA @HeartandStroke Amazing! This research would not have been possible without the incredible nurses from the @rahfoundation NICU who generously shared their time, energy & kindness throughout this project--all while balancing their clinical duties as well! #NationalNursesWeek #NationalNursingWeek

[Simran Ghoman @simranghoman]

Thank you to the public & funding partners whose generosity made this research possible, and give hope to future newborn patients and their families @CIHR_IRSC @WCHRIUofA @HeartandStroke #UAlbertaInnovationShowcase #UAlbertaInnovationShowcaseHealth

[Simran Ghoman @simranghoman]

Very proud to be involved in this fantastic showcase to share my research about leveraging gamification & digital media to improve training for neonatal healthcare providers. Equally excited to learn about the excellent work being shared by my peers! #UAlbertaInnovationShowcase

[Graduate Studies @UAlbertaFGSR]

Welcome to the first-ever @UAlberta Innovation Showcase featuring 50 grad students and postdocs. Find us at #UAlbertaInnovationShowcase throughout the week.

Improving training for healthcare providers is an important first step towards improving care for their vulnerable newborn patients and families, who depend on life-saving care to ensure a happy, healthy, and vibrant future for years to come #UAlbertaInnovationShowcase

Improved training for neonatal healthcare providers is the first step towards improving care for their vulnerable newborn patients and their families, who depend on receiving safe, effective, life-saving care to ensure a happy, healthy, and vibrant future for years to come

[Simran Ghoman @simranghoman]

Evidence-based serious games demonstrate promise to improve access to training for both urban and rural providers, from high and low resource settings--and digital simulation in particular may have an important role in distanced training during the current COVID-19 pandemic
