Excited to share our new publication on the impact of #THC exposure during gestation on brain development. This stunning work, led by Lani Cupo, describes several years of datas collection and examines brain development and maturation using MRI and behaviour www.nature.com/articles/s41... 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Does anyone know of a funding agency that asks applicants not to use genAI in their grants? Trying to develop a framework about this, so seeing examples would be great. Unfortunately the 🇨🇦 Tri-council statement is disappointing on this.

I'm looking forward to speaking at @canacn.bsky.social's annual meeting tomorrow! I’ll be talking about all things #Cannabis, including our current preclinical and human research that is relevant to policy and expanding consumer knowledge. Come say hello! #Neuroskyence

Thrilled to share a new article! We found a decline in the male-to-female ratio of lifetime cannabis use prevalence among adults in Ontario, (maybe in adults aged 30 or older only?) Huge thanks to my co-authors @camhnews.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The NDP’s supply-and-confidence agreement has been crucial in securing the Canadian Dental Care Plan, Pharmacare Act, and Early Learning and Child Care Plan. Will Jagmeet Singh ever come close to turning these political victories into political power? thewalrus.ca/with-the-ndp-sli...

I need scientists 🧪 to *THINK*: Do you really believe *only* $8mil went to research w/ transgenic mice, one of the most common tools in modern biomedicine? Or maybe fascists are targeting trans people everywhere they can, including research using animal models of gender affirming hormone therapy?

Super excited to be a part of the upcoming #Careers in #STEAM Conference: #Toronto! I'll be part of Panel #1 - talking about my time in Academia and doing research. JOIN US on 📅 March 8th! Registration link below. ➡️ www.ticketfi.com/event/6108/c...

So excited to share the work of the fantastic Katarzyna, 1st 🧪PhD student of my lab 🧠, out in @natureneuro.bsky.social 🥂🥳 Cheers to the team, thanks to our precious collaborators and support from @braincanada.bsky.social #CIHR @fondsrechercheqc.bsky.social #newPI www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It is actually a problem that scientists keep marching for science though instead of against fascism and for humanity

If you are serious about resisting American fascism, imperialism, colonialism, all the isms... think about also resisting the Canadian versions of the very same thing, at home and abroad. Lots of yous already do this, and that's great! Just don't fall into the nationalist trap that's taking hold.

Right now, for a lot of Canadians the temptation is to ignore Indigenous people because the threats from the US seem way more important. This turn to fervent and ignorant nationalism is a mistake. Don't alienate the people who know more about your "country" than you do. Find common cause instead.

Resist fascism from the U.S. and within Canada, but your fervent flaggy nationalism is ALSO celebrating the ongoing colonization, dipossession, and genocide of Indigenous Peoples and we will never, ever let you forget that or pretend otherwise. You can't have one without the other.

@sbn-bsky.bsky.social has released a statement on current events. SBN DEI comm, of which I'm chair, wrote this statement to be people-first focused on the human impacts. I want to thank Peg McCarthy & the Exec Comm in quickly approving the document w/ few edits. This is why SBN is my "home" society.

I don't know how to say this beyond standing up to authority is a muscle and some of you have never exercised it
