Day 3 of #EMBLCardioBiology 2026 in Heidelberg with more outstanding talks such as the one on #endothelium in #adipose by Joanna Kalucka, a great poster session and a tour of the city to wrap it up!

Great to see beautiful work by fellow Canadian labs! @rmarinjuez.bsky.social

Day 2 at #EMBLCardioBiology 2026 in Heidelberg kicked off with an inspiring session on #cardiovascular #regeneration spanning the full spectrum from fundamental basic science to clinical trials. Outstanding talks by @kasinans.bsky.social Florian Weinberger Wolfram [email protected]

A fantastic kickoff of #EMBLCardioBiology 2026. Great speakers and a keynote by Alessandra Moretti Looking forward to day 2 tomorrow when I’ll be chairing a session on cardiovascular regeneration. @embl.org @uhnresearch.ca

Dear reviewer, I AM the expert! This is the most unhelpful comment from my #cihr grant. I guess all my training in vascular biology since undergrad (+MSc, PhD, 2.5yrs postdoc, 13 years running a lab in vascular research) and several publications on the topic not relevant?!?! Bring back f2f reviews!

Job alert! 📣 I’m looking for a research assistant to join my new team @idrm.ox.ac.uk Were using #zebrafish to understand gene-environment interactions that shape the heart 🫀generate natural diversity 🐸🐭 and contribute to congenital defects ❤️‍🩹 Full info below, and please share! 🫶🏻 bit.ly/467TO0M

We published a report as a result of the 2025 @bmes-cmbe.bsky.social conference on clinical advances, challenges and opportunities in regenerative medicine. Check it out! 👇 #regenmed #tissueengineering pubs.aip.org/aip/apb/arti...

Best email of the day! Reached out to a person in the US who I haven’t met for a reference letter for an applicant and got this:

Is Anne Frank’s house worth it? Or too depressing? I’m torn between ‘of course’ and ‘wanna keep it light’. That said if they do a good job with the tour I’m more inclined to do it. Otherwise if it’s meh, no thanks. #annefrank #amsterdam #traveltips #travel

Planning a chill leisure trip to #Amsterdam in Feb (2.5days). Local peeps, I’d love your recs for less-touristy things to do + great places to eat. Hidden gems, cozy cafés, favorite neighborhoods, markets… hit me! 🌷🚲🍽️

Why does Canada need a national women's health strategy? I'll be discussing this tomorrow on The Early Edition with Stephen Quinn at 7:20 am PST/10:20 am EST. Tune in & listen 👇🏼 www.cbc.ca/listen/live-... #HerHealthMatters #WomensHealth #Research

I second going back to in person meetings. Problem is, they will continue online as long as they find reviewers willing to do meetings online... If most declined saying the reason is b/c it is not in person and they cannot concentrate for that long online CIHR would have to seriously consider it.
