The Story of Metabolic Karma
Birth weight of parents are the best predictors of not only the birth weight of their kids, but also their metabolic outcomes!
Father's birth weight is a good predictor of risk of diabetes in kids
Low birth weight mothers are more likely to have low birth weight kids & vice versa
This comes from analysis of data of more than 320,000 parent-child pairs

My pals were surprised at today's Haliburton Trail run where Canada's Prime Minister had a solid top 60 overall finish (at age 60) in the hilly 26km off road run. Not too many world leaders could come close to that accomplishment at any age. Kudos PM Mark Carney on the run.

Deeply sad our department chair @BeierLab @SchulichMedDent passed away. Frank was a great scientist and colleague. His leadership, actions and vision were exemplary. Talking to Frank always gave me motivation and made me want to be a better person.
