On the morning after... Grant went in late last night... After a decent sleep, I confront 4 hours of back2back meetings (11-3 local time - no lunch; but trainees who have been waiting for me to be available) and 488 emails in the InBox. I'm getting too old for rapid rebounds from intense periods.
I'm ready to lock in specific meeting time windows and extreme email triage going forward. I actually need time to do things rather than communicate about doing things.
Grateful to so many for helping bring a
@CIHR_IRSC grant proposal to submission today. The lab members, the collaborators and the
@BCCHresearch RTDO with late night heroics from the exceptional Dora Pak and @grantsfacilitat
- for whom there can never be enough gratitude

The missing #genomes 🧬🌎
It is not about numbers or lack of #diversity in databases. It is about a more equitable #access to health care!

I’ve been rocked by this article penned by Dawkins.
Not because of its colonial superiority overtones, but the overt racism.
If your ‘rational objectivity’ can’t explain your stance without racially offending the country your are a guest in, your argument fails.

@taramcallister4 when I worked at UCL there was a general rule no meetings before 10am or after 4pm so to accommodate parents/carers/commuters. Add in a lunch hour (or two for the late eating Europeans) and this meant meetings 10-12 and 2-4, much better for getting actual work done.

Name plate installed outside my lab. The little Native girl in me who made it through physics, chemistry, org biology, and calculus is so joyful 😀

Our latest paper, a collaboration @WyWyWa's group, is now online. In it we developed informatics approaches to "screen" for small molecules that can drive stem cell differentiation. Congrats @NovakovskyG and @shugosasaki! https://www.cell.com/stem-cell-reports/pdf/S2213-6711(23)00011-5.pdf

What are we losing by not having more Indigenous people involved in #GenomicsResearch?
Nadine Caron from @silentgenomes and @UBC says our solutions for the future will not be complete without Indigenous input.

What is #IndigenousGenomicsInnovation? 💉
In Canada, it means addressing climate change, rare diseases and hunger and malnutrition.
In partnership with @GenomeCanada, our new Spotlight highlights the importance of Indigenous contributions and inclusion in genomics.

Excited to visit Te Aka Mātauranga Matepukupuku Cancer Centre on Thursday - both to learn about the great research across @AucklandUni and to speak about the pursuit of equity in genomic medicine in @silentgenomes #DunedinSabbatical
Cape Reinga is a special place where spirits soar over the intersection of the Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea. Moving to experience it on a perfect day. #DunedinSabbatical
It's beautiful and peaceful. But still kicking myself for overlooking the no wifi notice for current AIRBNB.
