The impact air pollution has on COPD - new from Harpin et al AJRCCM2025, already discussing here at TSANZ by Dr. Petrache #tsanzsrs2025

STEM students are invited to the Data & Research Methods Project! This 30h project teaches data analysis & visualization. Participants receive a certificate of completion. nebigdatahub.org/drm-project/ @SouthBigDataHub @MWBigDataHub @westbigdatahub @NSF @NIH @AcademicDataSci @CDCgov
To reflect the fact that the #COPD Assessment Test (CAT) can be used by patients with conditions other than COPD, its content and name have been changed to “Chronic Airways Assessment Test” (CAAT). Read more in the Journal of the COPD Foundation journal.copdfoundation.org/jcopdf/id/1541…
Oxygen at the Final Frontier I feel honoured to have been part of this inspiring and cutting-edge team. Such a successful symposium with great science at the ACSM Meeting 2025. Thank you all. @PorcelliSimone, @harrybrossiter, @AdamiAlessandra, CarrieFerguson, DavidPoole @ACSMNews
Honored to share the stage today with these colleagues and dear friends. Very interesting talks about Oxygen at the Final Frontier: Advances in the Assessment of Aerobic Function in Health and Disease Thanks #ACSM25 for sponsoring our symposium!

My university has just announced six NEW research-focused Fellowships - for early to senior-level researchers (i.e., from post docs to full Profs). More info 👉 bit.ly/3GUKdkj Must have valid work rights in Australia. Applications close 11 June.
Looking forward to discuss our work today, Area F board 678 #ATS2025, on locomotor muscle function in people with PAH. Meet me from 11:30AM to 1PM today! @PR_Assembly

The dilemma of “do do” versus “can do” Brilliant talk by Dr Rich Casaburi #ATS2025 Great session, excellent talks from all 6 speakers! @PR_Assembly

See you in SF PR colleagues! ☺️🙌 #ATS2025
Heading to San Francisco soon for @atscommunity #ATS2025 🤔 Here’s a handy little guide to what’s on the program from the @PR_Assembly Enjoy! You’re welcome ☺️ 🇺🇸 🫁
Very glad to see the work of Simone @SiVillanova available online @ExpPhysiol , looking at skeletal muscle diffusion is elite and professional swimmers! Great collaboration! 👏🏻
Our recent work on muscle oxidative and O₂ diffusive function in swimmers is finally out in @ExpPhysiol. Thank you🙏 @ElisaPastorio98 @andreapil8 @MarcianoAlessio Valentina Quaresima @AdamiAlessandra @harrybrossiter @DaCardinale @PorcelliSimone 🔗 doi.org/10.1113/EP0922…
The PowerLab ( uofgpowerlab.weebly.com ) is having some big turnover this summer (@HinksAve @ParisMashouri ) and this opens the door to take on new PhD students to work on projects related to muscular adaptations to use/disuse across various structural levels. Happy to chat!!
Overall considering the current funding situation, proud of March achievements, two pilot studies awarded over four proposals submitted. Today my group cheers 🥂, from Monday in the lab 💪

Second talk well received, time to submit the paper including the good feedback got today. Appreciated! #tsanzsrs2025 was an excellent.

Mark Burnley (@LboroSSEHS) et al. present this #TopicalReview reflecting on the relevance of A.V. Hill's work into the physiology of intense exercise 100 years later✍️ 📚 🔗 Read it here: buff.ly/2LtXMYH
Effects of wildfire exposure on human body- Dr. Johnston at #tsanzsrs2025

A top quality meet the expert today, thank you for organizing, we need more of these! #WomenEmpowerment #WomenInScience #tsanzsrs2025

Grateful to present our pilot study at the Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand TSANZ. A second talk coming up Tuesday about PA behaviors in PRISm. See you then!

It's National Pulmonary Rehabilitation (PR) Awareness Week! PR improves breathlessness, physical function, & quality of life better than any other therapy.
Visiting the Pulmonary Rehab at Alfred Hospital today. Thanks for welcoming me! #exerciseismedicine
