You can count the $$ saved on travel, but you can't count the $$ misallocated because of limited discussion / debate and you can't count the $$ lost because people aren't chatting science informally for a few days.

We are saddened to learn of the passing of The Honourable Kirsty Duncan. An advocate for science and evidence-based policy, she strengthened Canada’s research ecosystem as Minister of Science and championed SCN. Her contributions to Canada’s science community will be remembered.

Canada has lost a true champion for science with the passing of the Hon. Kirsty Duncan. Dr. Duncan was a medical geographer, Minister for Science, and a huge inspiration to many for her advocacy for basic science and uplifting women in STEM. We'll continue your legacy while you rest in peace <3

New in @ScienceMagazine, we report that dilated cardiomyopathy can be alleviated by preventing hypocontractility-induced fibroblast expansion! The story is a fun combination of advanced in vivo and biomaterial-based in vitro models. Check it out! 📜 : doi.org/10.1126/scie...

Preventing hypocontractility-induced fibroblast expansion alleviates dilated cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyocyte hypocontractility underlies inherited dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Yet, whether fibroblasts modify DCM phenotypes remains unclear despite their regulation of fibrosis, which strongly pr...
