📣 WHAT *NOT* TO DO IN RESPONSE TO THE OVERTURNING OF ROE V. WADE: A GUIDE FOR PEOPLE LIVING IN CANADA 📣

May we all try to match our clothes like my 6 yo, who was overheard while rifling through his drawers:
"Hm.. I will pick my *oldest* dinosaur tshirt.
And my NASA hoodie, because an asteroid impact killed the dinosaurs."

In medical science, epidemiology, biostatistics, bioinformatics…… no boundaries #WomenInScience #WomeninScienceDay
Happy #WomenInScience Day!
Let’s smash stereotypes, defy gender bias and defeat discrimination that holds women and girls back in Science, Tech, Engineering and Math.

A bit meta, but cool concept. We see anti-drug Abs in a small minority of patients on biologics - curious to hear more about prevalence of Ab2 antibodies post-Covid.

👏 to CMAJ for highlighting this important and overlooked issue that has implications for so many trainees! Residency program directors, take note on how we can do better. #motherhoodinmedicine
In the 1st episode of our new podcast series, @Drmojolaomole & @BlairBigham speak with Dr. Sophia Park about her personal struggle with infertility, and @AndreaSimpsonMD calls for systemic change in medicine to support parenthood: cmaj.ca/transcript-211255

Ontario parents - the booking system is *NOW* open for kids born in 2016 or earlier. Good luck all, and please remember 2 weeks is needed between #COVIDVaccine and other vaccines. Most of our kids won't get their shots this week. Please plan for a #FluShot. #ForJudeForEveryone
Overwhelmingly glad to have just booked my 5 year old for his first Covid vaccine later this week!!! 🙌
Ontario parents- the system is up and running! covid19.ontariohealth.ca/
At some point, we're going to have dedicated CONVENIENT spaces for nursing doctor moms to pump at work, right? Read on for other fun places I've had to pump... (1/3)
- storage room (bonus Halloween and Christmas decor for company)
- colleagues offices (many thanks🙌)
- admin offices (kindly having to ask them to step out)
- multiple bathrooms
- multiple clinic or exam rooms (often no lock and 🤞my taped sign on the door is heeded) (2/3)
Can we not try to make juggling clinical work, graduate school and research work, while working at multiple locations, while trying to provide food for my baby, just a smidgen less challenging? (3/3)

I'm a trauma surgeon and read this tweet while my 3 yo was having a tantrum because THEY had wanted to flush the toilet. One of the many challenges of a surgeon mom 🤣 So, a🧵 on why asking med students about kids when they mention surgery is WRONG /1
A very important piece raising awareness on infertility and motherhood in medicine. nytimes.com/2021/09/13/healt…

Back on service in the ICU this week & what do I see (not in our unit since May) - neonatal resuscitation equipment! Ontario 4th wave is here, and pregnancy is a major risk factor!
Timely that @COVIDSciOntario released our COVID in pregnancy document.
