Hot off the press: Our work on #Chinook #winds and #migraine attack onset in #children and #adolescents with surprising null findings @ahsheadache.bsky.social @headachejournal.bsky.social : headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Beautiful #autumn morning over #Minneapolis; headed to #AAN HQ.

What a week - Honored to be a #Top40 and our paper on #migraine and #trauma informed care was published. Top 40: www.avenuecalgary.com/top-40-under... Migraine and trauma-informed care: link.springer.com/epdf/10.1007...

Interesting data: Dual therapy with #anti-CGRP medications and #OnabotulinumtoxinA resulted in reduced #EmergencyDepartment visits compared to monotherapy with either of these in #adults with #migraine www.neurology.org/doi/pdf/10.1...

Glad to see the American Academy of Neurology respond swiftly to the HHS’ claim linking #autism to prenatal acetaminophen exposure: www.aan.com/siteassets/h...

Fabulous time in São Paulo sharing #migraine #science, #clinical pearls, and working on international #collaborations with my wonderful colleagues #InternationalHeadacheCongress

“Pain metamorphosis” - striking art at the #InternationalHeadacheCongress in #SãoPaulo

Headed down to #SãoPaulo for the #InternationalHeadacheCongress meeting. Excited to share our recent work on #chinooks and #migraine attack onset in #children and #adolescents and to lecture on #non-pharmacologic treatments.

Check out our latest work showing that #pain #magnification (perceiving pain as #threat) is strongly associated with more #migraine related #disability at follow-up in youth with migraine @ahsheadache.bsky.social @headachejournal.bsky.social: headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

FDA has approved #fremanezumab for #migraine #prevention in #children and #adolescents with #episodic #migraine ir.tevapharm.com/news-and-eve...

Open Access: A discrete-choice experiment survey in adults w episodic #migraine found, on average, respondents prefer an oral pill to injections or infusions, highlighting the importance of patient preference in choosing preventive treatments headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/BYXMW2...

The #phase1 #pharmacokinetic #trial on the use of #eptinezumab in #children and #adolescents with #migraine is now published. Recommends weight-based dosing. @headachejournal.bsky.social headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...

That feeling when your #graduate student has a masterful #defense @ucalgarymed.bsky.social

A woman took 5 hockey players to trial for alleged sexual assaults. She was subjected to 9 straight days of interrogation by 5 legal teams, one for each defendant. Our justice system is telling women they can't report multiple assaults or they will be victimized again. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Nothing to do with headache medicine but this is a great read 😊

Fascinating results from UNITE trial showing that #fremanezumab reduces both #migraine days and #depressive symptoms in adults with #migraine and #depression - seminal trial first to look at treating both @jama.com: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

The little hat, the eye piece, the weird block suit. So quirky, so neuro

The #CONSORT guidelines for #reporting the results of #RandomizedControlledTrials have been updated and published. See the new guidelines here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I was invited by @abhealthservices.bsky.social to do a presentation for #youth and #families about #headaches and #migraine in #children and #adolescents and it is now posted on Youtube in case anyone is interested: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHq-...

Fascinating work using #MachineLearning to try and predict #incident #migraine cases in the HUNT study from #genetic and #clinical data. #Genetic data alone barely better than chance, but #clinical + #genetic data generated reasonable predictive accuracy: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

There's no such thing as a self-made man or woman. No one succeeds without support. "I did it on my own" is a sign of insecurity and entitlement. Acknowledging help is a mark of confidence and humility. Giving credit to others doesn't undermine you. It elevates them.

Back in my #hometown @Montreal for the International Brain Injury Association Congress, preparing my talk on #posttraumatic #headache in #children and #adolescents. Excited to connect with some #colleagues, #family, and #friends

My standout colleagues Drs. Noel & Birnie are looking to hire a #KnowledgeBroker to work on projects related to #pediatric #pain. Please consider and/or share! careers.ucalgary.ca/jobs/1579389...

Mike spotted this before the rest of us. 🫡 Publications from 2025 are shared more on Bluesky than on X/Twitter.

“Being antiracist is a call to action: a commitment to learn, understand, and actively participate to eliminate racism." Actively challenging racism takes courage, @abirimmer.bsky.social hears www.bmj.com/content/388/...

Worked 70 hours in the past 5 days, but was rewarded today with the opportunity to help end patients’ #migraine attacks, hold and soothe a crying #baby, and reassure a worried family. Days can be long and hard but #grateful and #humbled by the opportunity to make some small positive changes at work.

Outstanding first day at the International #Headache Academy. Honored to be co-chairing this one-of-a-kind meeting of the minds @UCLA @ahsheadache.bsky.social

The purpose of negative emotions is not to cause misery. It’s to prevent mistakes. Outrage is a signal to speak up. Anxiety is a prompt to prepare. Guilt is a reminder to repair. Disappointment is a cue to persist. Pain reveals principles. Where we hurt is a clue to what we value.

Reality: there is a STRONG consensus about what the large and diverse body of evidence says about vaccines! #VaccinesWork Don't let the doubt mongers win. See clarityfoundation.com/be-confident... 🙏

Productivity is overrated. What counts most is the quality of output, not the quantity. People may be impressed by the volume you produce, but impact depends on the value you create. Success is not about getting more things done. It's about doing more worthwhile things well.

Sharing #infographic about our #pilot #trial on the use of remote electrical #neuromodulation to treat #children and #adolescents with #migraine in the #EmergencyDepartment @kidsinpain.bsky.social @headachejournal.bsky.social. Full pub here: headachejournal.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Yes #DEI matters. Especially for our vulnerable pediatric neurology patients facing additional challenges re sexual and gender identity. I’m deliberately not tagging others right now. Please feel free to tag yourself. 🌈⚖️💪🏽

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth! The 1st woman discussed in Dr. Sara Brown's article of December 1923 on Black #WomeninMedicine is Agnes O. Griffin. THESE WOMEN. Let me tell you. Powerhouses, every one. 1/10

New data: There are clear #racial #disparities in the #diagnosis, #work-up, and #treatment of #migraine in the #EmergencyDepartment according to #US data from 49 #pediatric hospitals. We need to push for more #equitable care @greenjournal.bsky.social: www.neurology.org/doi/pdf/10.1...

A study in Nature Medicine reports that a surgically implanted brain–computer interface can detect and decode finger movements in a person with paralysis, allowing them to play a video game#Medskyky 🧪

As a #WorkingMom, there's no victory sweeter than that of getting your kids into their top choice #camps, despite insane #HungerGames styles registration systems. Shouldn't be this hard though!

Hello! I’m a #pediatric neurologist and #headache specialist in Calgary. In my work life I try to improve care for #kids and #teens with headache disorders. In my free time, I’m either out in #nature with my family or running/skiing solo, #reading books, or #baking. Pic of family dog Winston below.
