What started as an idea is now funded, supporting my next chapter as a post-doc with Dr. Nagamatsu!
Really enjoyed putting the science of this proposal together and am beyond excited to collaborate with amazing researchers in Canada to bring it to life with @embhlab
Very excited to start this project! @westernuFHS @ogoshhsw
💡 @embhlab's @CIHR_IRSC funded project will investigate how semaglutide + resistance exercise can combat cognitive decline in older adults with Type 2 Diabetes. A promising combined approach for brain health! 🧠🏋️♂️ #CognitiveHealth #DiabetesResearch #CIHR
