Excited to be attending Canadian Medical Students virtual general meeting this weekend! #CFMSSGM2020 #ForwardTogetherCFMS

Thrilled to hear at #cfmssgm2020 that an MOU was signed between Canadian Medical Association and Canadian Medical Students on health human resources and physician wellness! Incredibly motivated to drive this work as chair of the HHR Task Force and co-chair with Rena Far the Wellness Curriculum Task Force!

Also great to hear about all the other important work being done under the Canadian Medical Students Student Affairs portfolio - National Wellness Challenge, Perspectives in Medicine, Safe Spaces, Electives and Interviews Databases, Task Forces #CFMSSGM2020 #ForwardTogetherCFMS

Happy to share our article recently published in #CMEJ calling for a national strategy to address medical student wellness in Canada

Just published in Acta Neurochirurgica - we explored the relationship between DBS programming settings and Parkinson’s disease severity, and surprisingly found no correlation rdcu.be/cQo2o
