Today is my PhD thesis submission due date #leapday2024 Thankfully I submitted last month (🥳) but none of the past three years would have been possible without my incredible supervisors Suzanne k, Liam Johnson, and A Thompson-Butel!

Such a great initiative from Natalie Fini and colleagues. Well informed clinicians are the first step to promoting physical activity in stroke rehabilitation Please complete the survey in the link below to provide your input! Especially calling on anyone in North America!

#HIIT is safe for cardiac conditions. Even ADLs may be ‘vigorous activity’ for people who are deconditioned. Great overview of the evidence and clinical recommendations by Jenna Taylor for ESSA!

Here’s to the International Day of Women and Girls in Science! 👩‍🔬👩‍💻 I am so privileged to know (and work with) so many inspiring #WomenInScience who are empowering other women in science and women with stroke to be involved in research projects!

Really excited to publish the words of people with stroke and health professionals in Australia TL;DR: • People want #HIIT • Talk about intervals of relative intensity rather than ‘high intensity’ • More education is needed to increase confidence

Find the #physicalactivity that works for you and do it as often as possible! Moving overseas has meant I can’t walk my dog, but I recently started tennis lessons. No chance of going to the Olympics but it’s a volley good time 😂

📣 My final PhD study has just been published! Liam Johnson Suzanne k A Thompson-Butel In a ‘healthy adult’ cohort ⬆️ lactate may indicate ⬆️ #BDNF, but there is no correlation 🤔 BUT being male or carrying the Val66Met polymorphism may change this dx.doi.org/10.1002/jnr.70…

Though high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can increase neurotrophin, improve cardiovascular health, & enhance recovery after #stroke, it's rarely prescribed. Authors identified key facilitators & barriers to HIIT use in patients & rehab professionals: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
