Enjoyed visiting the @NSWHSBiobank today! Really cool to see the people and robots at work in this purpose-built facility. Our FH biobank has just begun, but we're hoping to have 500 samples upon completion.
ALT A bright sign showing "Health statewide biobank" alongside the NSW government waratah logo.
Had a very good time at at @sydFMH_EMCR sessions. Some lovely chats in the breaks (including @DrMelodyDing @cancer_K2A and Dr Habib Francis)! I learned about noisy knees, and bad sleep in athletes. Missing out on Day 2 but will be at Day 3 (Westmead) for more!

Next up, @jessicajorchard talking about screening ECGs in athletes to look for risk of sudden cardiac death. I was surprised to see how many sudden deaths occur during sleep and rest rather than during exercise @sydFMH_EMCR

Would you want your blood pressure measured by a toilet seat? @deanp_BP showing us the history (and future) of blood pressure monitors @sydFMH_EMCR.

Hearing from @DrMelodyDing who is matching her profile pic at the @sydFMH_EMCR Symposium. She's letting us know academia is tough even for superstars like her and reminding us to take time out to look after ourselves.
