Had a great time at #expbio2022 and attending APS EEP Section events!

Meral Culver and Soolim Jeong did a great job presenting some data from our lab at the UAB UAB Medicine 32nd Annual Vascular Biology and HTN Symposium. Really enjoyed the lectures and getting solid feedback on our work!!

Check out our spring newsletter!!!

Meral Culver and McKenna (not on Twitter, soon to be in Thomas W. Buford, PhD's lab) did a great job presenting their data at #ACSM2022 #ACSM22 in the cardiovascular poster session today!

Great talk by my mentor Austin Robinson on salt and cardiovascular health at #ACSM2022!

Had a great week American College of Sports Medicine in San Diego!

Great start to the week visiting with and learning from Austin Robinson and the Neurovascular Physiology Laboratory crew at Auburn Weather. Thanks so much for hosting!

Excited to share our newest paper entitled “Sleep duration irregularity is associated with elevated blood pressure in young adults”. Big thanks to all the coauthors! Greg Grosicki Andrew Flatt Austin Robinson Brett Cross Alex Montoye @Bryan_Riemann tandfonline.com/eprint/IITP2RD…

🧵There’s a lot of interest in the applied phys field on sleep & vascular health; & sleep as a mediator of disparities, so I found this recent paper interesting. Racial and ethnic disparities in insufficient sleep among US infants and Preschoolers pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36813679/ 1/

Got to break out the power tools today in the NVPL! Excited we finally have a permanent PLM set up. 🔩🥽🔧
