What is your University internal deadline like? Single deadline or double deadline? -CIHR LOI date Feb 4, 2026 -Dalhousie FoM internal deadline on Uni server Feb 12, 2026 -Dalhousie ORS internal deadline on Uni server & ResearchNet Feb 17, 2026 CIHR Deadline Mar 4, 2016 @dalhousieu.bsky.social

Imagine that. Women need a Bill that ensures women's right to healthcare. If U are 🇨🇦, and an adult, U pay taxes that go towards our social healthcare system. Therefore, all persons in 🇨🇦 are entitled to healthcare equally. Again, all people are entitled to healthcare.

Reviewer#3, when applicant details life threatening disease(s) as reason 4 delayed productivity, you don't have 2 point out "concern 4 lack of productivity, though applicant has had health concerns". This comment is evil. Empathy is a sign of humanity. Do better! #CIHR being back F-2-F reviews.

Really sorry to hear that reviewers are abusing people with diseases. Hiding behind a screen does not take courage. It is cowardice. Bully tactics. Sad commentary on the quality of reviewers. In person review panels hold reviewers accountable. #CIHR being back in person review panels.

Do better #CIHR

We were devastated to hear of the passing of the Honourable Dr. Kirsty Duncan. A giant in science and public service, she was also kind and deeply caring, fighting tirelessly for equity for women and girls in science. We honour her legacy and extend our deepest condolences.

Devastated to learn of the passing of Dr. Kirsty Duncan. She was a brilliant scientist, a fierce advocate for safe sport, and a truly kind person. Canada has lost a real champion for #STEM. Our hearts goes out to her family and loved ones. What a tremendous loss. #KirstyDuncan #CdnPoli

Wishing everyone a peaceful and prosperous 2026. Dream big 🌟🧫🧪👩🏻‍🔬👩🏾‍🔬👩🏼‍🔬🧑🏿‍🔬🧑🏻‍🔬🔬🦠🧬

As Christmas & the holidays near, I want 2 thank U all 4 supporting my research programs & team throughout 2025. I want 2 wish U a wonderful holiday season. Optimistic that 2026 will bring good health, good friendships & good science. #BuonNatale #MerryChristmas #JoyeuxNoël #GodJul #HappyHolidays

Wishing you all a peaceful Holiday season filled with family and friends. 2026 will surely be a great year for all things #STEM.

Today, we remember the 14 young women whose lives were tragically cut short on December 6, 1989, at École Polytechnique in Montreal. On this National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, we honour their memory. #MontrealMassacre #NeverForget #EndViolenceAgainstWomen

Flu and COVID vaccines simultaneously. Please get vaccinated. Just think about the decades of research that have gone into these vaccines. 1000s of grad students & postdocs worked diligently for years moving the needle forward, just so we can be protected from invisible pathogens. #ScienceSaves

Thanksgiving is always a time 4 me 2 reflect what it is 2 be Canadian, and 2 be grateful that my family chose 🇨🇦.

MP Kirsty Duncan has served in Parliament since 2008, but before that she was a scientist. Ahead of International Women's Day, she shared her experience as a woman in research and the challenges of encouraging more women to choose a STEM career. #IWD @schulichmeddent.bsky.social

The study also revealed an inverse correlation between the expression of certain chemokine mRNAs and their corresponding microRNAs (miR-532-5p, miR-1266-3p, miR-3163).. could play a role in regulating the expression of chemokines.

Some cancers develop resistance to therapies, and chemokines may play a role in this process. By studying how chemokines influence tumor behavior and immune responses, researchers can identify new strategies to overcome resistance and improve treatment efficacy. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
