Also: can we AMPLIFY these voices a bit better? I'd like to see more of my pharmacist colleagues, like @kgrindrod and @PharmacistMama given a platform to speak to their expertise. The media needs to talk to these people, and Canadians need to hear them.

"When I woke up just after dawn on September 28, 1928, I certainly didn't plan to revolutionise all medicine by discovering the world's first antibiotic, or bacteria killer."
93 years ago Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin. He was awarded the #NobelPrize in 1945.

Great mentors can see what you are capable of, and then help you to see it as well.

Looking to double my team as I launch a few new projects + a three year CIHR Grant.
Would love to bring on a postdoc who has mixed-methods experience & is keen to explore team functioning & performance improvement using behavioural science.

FINAL COUNT: 26,771 doses.
Toronto just set a world record for the most vaccine doses ever administered in a single clinic.
Be proud, Toronto. This vaccination campaign is our moment. It’s a rally together moment. Let’s get our city vaccinated. #TorontoVaccineDay

There have been a lot of… thoughts about NACI’s statement on “preferred vaccines” today. Many feel angry/bewildered/tricked/confused/all of the above. I get it. I still stand by this thread. As my friend @ASPphysician has said, not much has changed. Let me elaborate... 1/n
So you read today’s NACI advice - AZ ok if you’re 30+! Unless you can wait for mRNA 💉! And then you read the MANY hot takes from experts, non-experts, and para-experts. And you are SCARED. Let’s work through it. (The required reading is below). 1/n ema.europa.eu/en/documents/c…
